software support

“Reporting, not clear on trended worker data source and not easy to combine data and data sources and not easy to make dashboards for higher management, often we need to go to powerbi solution which means exporting sensitive data.”

Cons

“At times, the system can also feel slightly slow when handling large data, reports, and customization options for workflows and reports are somewhat limited compared to more enterprise-grade tools.”

“It logs out automatically a lot on the web version which makes it very annoying at times as one need to log in again and again.”

“Our experience has been below expectations. While the software is decent for basic use, poor support, lack of transparency, and unresolved refund commitments have negatively impacted our trust.”
