DA

JL

SV

Steven V.

IT Specialist

“Reftab allows us to keep close track of anything from high dollar assests, computers, monitors, and accessories, all the way down to product licenses and general supplies.”
JJ

Jason J.

Sr. IT Support

Cons

“There is one bug happens sometimes when I try to reply a customer inside the ticket.”
NY

Naz Y.

Technology Integration and Support Specialist

“I know that the ads are a necessity, and that a paid subscription could fix the ads, but we do not pay, and they sometimes get annoying.”
JF

Juan F.

CIO

“There also have been some access issues in the past.”
JR

Jerren R.

Payroll Clerk

Cons

“You cant directly print a kit list or export PDF from a booking so we can print a physical kit list to help with our prep, instead we have to export an excel file with all the information and then delete the columns that are irrelevant, incredibly time consuming. When it shows the calendar view of booking availability it shows that its booked but you cant just click on the calendar and see the times and user, it just shows their e-mail in the booking which for us doesnt work as its just a student number.”
AP

Ari P.

Senior Film Technician

“The user portal doesn’t work well at all on mobile devices, and making reservations for multiple assets isn’t very streamlined”
DH

Dominick H.

Senior Technician

“I do not like that there isn’t categories for kits or accessories, it makes it a lot harder for our front facing clients to navigate”
