Pros

“There are a few things we would like more control/customization over (such as tracking filter type through pulling a report, notifications when tasks such as changing a filter element is due, etc.), but one thing I can say about PB is that they are constantly listening to feedback and rolling out updates and changes to bring those requests to life.”
