Pros/Cons
Pros
- Very remote/global-friendly. Pretty easy implementation, great support from their team during the selection & implementation process and even now when we need help with some issues/questions.
- Our management team likes the ease of requesting promotions and raises for the team, and everyone enjoys the visually attractive org chart.
- Time Off - its great that you can add holiday types, the visibility is really useful and great integration with Slack.
Cons
- Lack of options for shift patterns, still have a few problems occuring.
- Importing our data was an incredibly painful process. Now that that's done, the platform works OK.
- The filing of documents is difficult, and doesn't link to individual profiles.
Pros
- Very good from investigating our options to implementation all interaction with the team is positive.
- It's extremely user friendly and easy to navigate; integrates with our other systems and offers interactive opportunities for teams to communicate with each other and their manager.
- All new starters are highly impressed with the professionalism of the system. Customer service from Cognology is very responsive.
Cons
- Exceptional, I am just regretful that I did not start using this software earlier.
- Sign off process is a little confusing. Folder management is also a bit clunky.
- We had some initial problems when setting up the system, however these were taken into account and often addressed in the next upgrade.
