Pros

“I really like the ability to schedule help sessions on anything and get to work one on one with someone to fix issues. This makes for an overall good experience.”

Shawn R.

Support Services Lt.

“POSS gives us an overview of the schedule, who requested off, who is out sick, and what assignments they are on. Very easy to use and deploy thanks to a great support team.”

“We are able to remotely view our schedules from everyone and hold everyone accountable. The system is great and the customer service is bar none.”

Mike L.

Detective Sergeant

Cons

“Poorly written software, terrible tech support.”

Tech C.

Network Admin

“There is no way to change this. Typically after enough agencies complain, they will incorporate the change, however an option like this should be included from the start.”

Daniel B.

Director of Communications & Information Technology

“During the introduction phase, it was hard to get used to. Especially, since we had moved from a more archaic way of doing things for years.”
