Technology Enabling the Human Element

Reviewed 4 years ago

The people and support structure at Chronus are excellent. The tool and system continues to provide new functionality and features, which is great. We are able to tailor the program and tracks to our particular interests beyond, but related to, mentoring.

Pros

The most substantive value in mentoring (or coaching) can be found in the dynamics of the relationship. As such, the most labor intensive, but critical step, is creating this relationship. The Matching Algorithm and the flexibility to tailor the weighting of the various criteria is highly effective in guiding the participants to the relationship that would be most suitable. The assumption, of course, is that people complete their profiles honestly and not how "they imagine others would want them to answer."

Cons

Organizational elements. We would like the capability for alphabetical sorting in all areas/functions, we would like the system to retain the mentoring ranking preference once submitted (for ease of reference) by the mentee, we would like an archive functionality for surveys of previous time periods, we would like more functionality for attaining data segments from the Executive Dashboard (aka survey and data from a single track rather than all licensed users).

Vendor response

CJ, we're glad to hear the configurability of the matching process is meeting your criteria for successful mentoring. Thank you for highlighting the areas you see for continued optimization, and your CSM is working to elevate these desired adjustments.

Offers a professional delivery of mentoring programs to participants.

Reviewed 7 years ago

A more professional, streamline, and transparent approach to student to industry mentoring.

Pros

Mentees and mentors in our mentoring programs appreciate the transparency offered and the ability to select their own mentoring partner. As an administrator, I value the easy customisation of mentoring tracks, the capability to recommend mentors to mentees, the ability to create a partnership plan which acts as a road map to guide each partnership through to completion and the ability to monitor partnership progress.

Cons

The software is "off-the-shelf" which comes with it's limitations. It may not suit the mentoring process flow that an organisation has in place. We have adapted our program structure and processes to work well under on Chronus.

Very happy with the software & especially the team behind it.

Reviewed 7 years ago
Pros

Clean, simple interface. Easy to use & access. The UX/UI are very good. And the level of support from the Chronus team during implementation was exceptional.

Cons

Very expensive for what it is. It's certainly best in class, but it's hard to justify this kind of hit on the budget for a matching software. The biggest technical complaint is that emails about new meeting appointments come from a random Scheduling Assistant email or something like that which is not helpful & leads to these emails getting ignored. There are a few areas where it's not exactly user friendly (i.e. selecting what is surfaced to the profile summary requires many clicks). Thankfully this is mostly on the admin side, not the end use side, but still could use improvement.

Growing Mentorship Programs

Reviewed 2 years ago

Our Chronus representatives have listened to and incorporated much of our feedback throughout implementation and ongoing support conversations. We have been able to support upon historic programs and launch new initiatives, especially those supporting diversity in the workplace, through this platform that might not have had a more difficult time launching if it weren't for the availability of this platform and the support provided by Chronus.

Pros

We were able to dramatically increase the capacity for participation in our mentorship programs through the ease of matching and communications provided by Chronus.

Cons

The program is on the expensive end and it took a while to get buy-in for broader implementation. Getting set-up on the platform can take longer and require a few more coding skills than expected and there are so many functions that sometimes it can be overwhelming to track everything.

Vendor response

Hi Heidi, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're thrilled to hear that Chronus helped increase the capacity for participation and made matching and communication easier for you. We understand that the cost and implementation process can be a consideration, but we believe that the value and benefits of our platform outweigh the initial investment. We continuously strive to improve the onboarding process and offer support for any coding skills required. Regarding the overwhelming feeling, we appreciate your feedback. We're constantly working to streamline our platform and make it more user-friendly. If you have any further suggestions or need assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We value your input and want to ensure your continued satisfaction.

Great product for large physician-based association!

Reviewed 6 years ago

Our online mentorship program has turned into a valuable benefit for our members, especially those early in their careers. We are now taking it to the next level, by highlighting topics each month within the forums and incorporating a live meet and greet event at our annual meeting.

Pros

There were two things we were looking for in an online mentorship program…1) integration with our single sign-on (such that our members can use their member login and password) and 2) automated matching for mentors and mentee. The Chronus system fulfills these requirements very well. It is critical that our mentorship program is a significant benefit of membership and that logging in should be simple...

Cons

The only con we have with the platform is the inability to track those mentors/mentees that take the relationship outside of the program (e.g. don’t utilize the timeline tasks and/or messaging features). We can get some of this data by surveying our mentors/mentees; however, I’m not sure there is anything that can be done about this from the Chronus perspective. Another limitation we have found is that currently users are not able to switch between mentee and mentor roles on their own; it has to be done by the administrator.

Vendor response

Julie, We're glad to be enabling your program as your membership grows and deepens. It's been great working with you to scale the program while meeting the needs of your mentors and mentees. We look forward to meeting your future goals! In regards to the 'switch between mentor and mentee roles' we've got good news. We've turned on a feature to allow you to overcome this challenge. Your CSM will be in touch to show you what that looks like for the end user. The Chronus Team

BBBS Chronus Review

Reviewed 4 years ago

Overall, our organization has had a successful partnership with Chronus as a way to help mentors and mentees connect through online activities, video conferencing, and messaging. We value most how easy to use it is.

Pros

That the tool is easy to use and has both a url and app for users. That we have tech support through a very engaged manager. That there are multiple features to help with keeping our matches/users engaged. The virtual conferencing feature has been a huge added bonus during social distancing. Very much enjoy that the messaging feature has the ability to include attachments.

Cons

Would like if the video conferencing feature worked in the App. Recommend that it is more visually appealing/engaging for youth programs.

Vendor response

Tara, thanks for your insightful feedback. We appreciate you continuing to be a collaborative partner. We'll make sure to pass this along to our Product team, as well as your Customer Success Manager, to make sure they know how you'd like to see the platform evolve.

Excellent Product and Outstanding Service!

Reviewed 9 years ago

Pros - The program is just the right size for a business that wants to take a proactive approach to employee development and new employee onboarding. Ease of use - The template is very good, but we customized it to perfectly fit our needs for both employee development/coaching and onboarding. We explored larger vendors but we found the solutions that Chronus had to offer were ideal for a business...

Great software and a fantastic value add to any company or organization

Reviewed 6 years ago

Overall, it has been a pleasure using the Chronus software and working with the extremely helpful and attentive staff.

Pros

There is a lot the software can do with a fair amount of pre-built as well as customizable options depending on what you are looking for.

Cons

It is not always the most intuitive platform, but there is usually a way to accomplish what you are trying to do. It just may take a few tries to figure out how to get there.
