Pros

“We now have a complete picture of a burial/interment, from start to finish - every deed transfer, every memorial test, every work order - we have a complete audit trail.”

Claire S.

Cemetery Services Manager

“Having cemetery records, burial information, ownership details, and other important information organized in one system makes it much easier to maintain accurate records and retrieve information when needed.”

Brittany F.

Cemetery Administrator

“Our experience with Plotbox has been excellent from day one through development, training, installation and implementation through to ongoing support and system development as we become more use to the system and tailor it to what we currently need and would like in the future”

Richard B.

Bereavement Services Manager

Pros

“Take a good hard look at what you are recording, where it is recorded and why it is recorded, from there you may be able to eliminate much of what is unnecessary and enjoy a cleaner start with this outstanding system. As our cemetery grows the Chronicle team are always available and supportive to our needs, meaning that we can be confident that new developments will be taken care of swiftly and are accurately reflected in the platform.”

James D.

Cemetery Manager

“Importantly, Chronicle promotes community engagement, allowing record searches, genealogy studies and location of interment sites. ”

Sheryl N.

Trust member

“Love it especially for the ability to edit online in the field with phone and then on desktop for more detailed infomation.”

Sexton

Cons

“For instance, we only order memorials once a headstone is paid in full, but we are unable to add a filter indicating when a headstone was paid in full.”

Ryan S.

Assistant Sales Manager and Memorials Supervisor

“During the initial setup, we also experienced a few bugs and issues.”

Moira T.

Crematorium and cemetery attendant

“I believe there are things missing as far as Plotbox filters in certain modules that limit its capabilities to run the reports we need.”

Ryan S.

Assistant Sales Manager and Memorials Supervisor

Cons

“Our biggest issue was that our existing records were mostly paper based and it took a considerable amount of time to get all of our information into a database - this was no fault of Chronicle, but a reflection on the existing management of our Cemetery records.”

Peter F.

Curator

“Not sure if its Chronicle or our internet speed but when searching for a name is can sometimes take a while for Chronicle to generate the list.”

Vanessa L.

CEMETERY STAFF

“Some of the map image has been compromised because of trees hiding the images.”
