It took a considerable length of time to get the software ready and installed for deployment. 2+ years in our case for first making contact. In fairness to Advanced, we were in a position where we could wait and take our time. As a result we wanted the product to be 'just so' for our needs. We worked with Advanced to make it happen. Had there been more urgency and a willingness on our side to make a few more compromises this could undoubtedly have been faster. Advanced were of course keen to get us up and running but equally cautious on our behalf; no-one benefits from a failed PMS rollout.
ALB brought us up to date with modern processes. The old system was hard to develop workflows to the extent that changes were seldom made. The Document History aspect, especially now that we have taken the pdfDocs integration means running paperless files is possible. Print volumes are drastically lower. Perhaps the biggest benefit is that it is a true one-stop-shop for a legal firm with a variety...
Inevitably there will be compromises as with any piece of software. Especially one that covers off so many angles. The development tools could be stronger, the way addresses are handled seems to me to be overly complex.

We moved from Videss to ALB in 2017. The transition was very straight forward and ALB were on hand the entire time to help with the process including floor walking on the day of the switch to help with any final issues. ALB provided training to all staff which took a considerable length of time. Advanced and the firm were keen to get everything up and running but at the same time cautious to make sure everything was completed properly as a failed roll-out could have proven costly.
ALB continues to develop it’s PMS to stay up-to-date with modern practices, it has also recently made commercial acquisitions to strengthen its market position. Old PMS systems are hard to develop and therefore changes are rarely made if at all. ALB has low-code workflows that can be developed in house (as we do) or under projects via ALB. We try to maximise efficiencies wherever possible and a few...
There will always be compromises as with any software and I would expect better reporting within the product itself, rather than having to purchase an ‘add-on’; especially from a company where data is their currency! However the primary purpose of a PMS is to make the process of providing legal services to clients quick and efficient and it does this.
