Excellent for ESG Newbies

Ease of use

Customer support

Functionality

Pros:

Novata's platform was easy to use, easy to collaborate with others, but most importantly, for someone new to these assessments, each question/metric came with an explanation, and the built-in live chat was FAST and INFORMATIVE. I couldn't believe how zero-hassle it was to get help when I needed, it in a way which wouldn't slow/stall my progress when I got stuck on a question

Cons:

Wasn't really important to me but they did not have an import function to bring in assessment responses from another assessment platform if needed

Pros:

Nova was a easy to use platform, with helpful metric definitions and benchmark comparison. It also enables the user to navigate between the questions, and automatically save all the inputs.

Cons:

The chatbot available does not really supports on the questions, but instead directs to a point of contact.

New Software, Streamlined and Effective

Our Private Equity owners asked us to use this software and also set up the metrics they wanted us to report on. Since they have a large portfolio, some of the metrics are not applicable to us, but that's easy enough to mark as not reported for our entity. Getting support when we need it has been easy and the Novata team is very easy to work with. Overall, it's been a very positive experience and I'm happy with the product.

Customer support

Functionality

Pros:

Novata is incredibly simple to navigate. There is guidance available to explain what each metric relates to. I like that we can have multiple people working on the ESG questionnaire at the same time collaboratively.

Cons:

Novata is new and still creating functionality and feature requests. Some features are less intuitive than they could be--I'd love the system to auto-save as you click through the different metrics. Right now you must hit the save button before hitting next or it doesn't record your answers. Also, finding the guidance or help can sometimes be a little confusing, but we do always get there in the end.

easy to use platform for data collection; excellent onboarding and mission driven team

Very helpful data collection tool that allows for increased efficiencies for GPs but also provides value to portfolio companies through its useful guidance material and hands on support. Overall, we are very satisfied with the product and service delivered and definitely recommend to other GPs.

Pros:

I really liked capturing the days away and hours away from work due to a job injury. This helps to see where you stand in a smaller pool of employment groups. I also like the emissions calculations. I just feel as if fleet CO2 could be captured as well. This could be captured to see the age of the fleet as well.

Cons:

Nothing. Very through and easy to use software
