The software is easy for me to use, and easy for my assistants to use. SENSITIVE CONTENT] are always happy to help me when I email or call.

I have become our small charter school's volunteer librarian, having no library skills, other than checking out books at the city library.

The software works great and Surpass is excellent at customer service. Everytime I have an issue, they are helpful and responsive and resolve it.

A record of each patron reveals the patron's photo, resources  borrowed, holds and fines. All these information on one window makes the whole work of circulation much easier.

This program brought our library into the 20th/21st Centuries. Before Surpass, we used a crude, cumbersome program.

The program is truly user friendly. If I have an issue, the customer support is outstanding: response is quick and resolution is timely.

I love, love, love, this software a lot. M so glad the school decided to update my software with Surpass.

I am so happy I chose them as I have had excellent support and advise from Surpass, both local and long-distance.

So I let the volunteers know, and told them to pay more attention on what they're doing.

Very disappointing and looking to change programs.

I appreciate all of your patience with all my emails (help, help, help).

The product prices are/were relatively easy to handle, too.

Bibliographic information is automatically imported from relevant external database servers. Not only is the searching interface beautiful but also interesting and effective.

There is cost involved (like any system), but the cost is consistent with industry standards, and you get a lot for the money.

The help button does always apply, the info I am looking for. I support team has been great and very helpful.

We like this product because it's inexpensive, easy to use, and can be installed on a secured shared local server.

Every feature we have asked for has been added and the price so far has basically remained the same. Absolutely wonderful product - would recommend this product to ANYONE.

A robust, independent product that creates confidence due to its simplicity of operation.

If something does go wrong, the error messages are sometimes not very helpful.

The adherence to international standards (MARC, etc) made it super ease to integrate with my country's Bibliographic authority.

I love, love, love, this software a lot. I'm so glad the school decided to update my software with Surpass.

The benefits we have realized from using Surpass are numerous. It has allowed us to quickly and accurately create and deploy tests and assessments, saving us time and money.

It takes a ridiculous amount of time to enter new books. The program will do it for you for an extra cost.

Surpass is easy to use and provides a wonderful library process for our school and our students.

Customer service - wonderful wonderful. In over 15 years of use, they have never let me down.

Perhaps the single biggest problem is the inability to make batch changes to records, although we've found some work-arounds by pasting in barcodes from a spreadsheet created by exported reports.

We are a small school library and we needed to automate on a budget. Surpass delivered an excellent solution for us at a price we can afford.

All the staff at Surpass are friendly, helpful, and caring to their customers and take care of all your needs in a timely manner.

This software is easy to use then comparison other ulternative software and approachable rapid n time saver.

Surpass is user friendly, comes with great features, and you can't find better technical support.

I am very happy our school choose Surpass system because  it is  a user friendly program with superior technical support. Everyone from the sales department to technical support has been amazing.

The customer support is great also. The beginners' videos & other helps for new users are very helpful.

Being able to inventory quickly and easily is important for volunteers. Having an attractive and easy to use online catalog is also very important.

Hooking it up via hardwire can be troublesome.

Easy install, great reporting and gives huge insight into what's happening in the business.

It does a great job of tracking customer data and the reporting is very helpful.

Our library loves the ease of creating reports.

Overall we are very happy with the PEARL units. For the cost of the unit, it is a must for any business who is looking at traffic patterns.

We were paying a large amount of money to a company that does not have good support. We are happy we switched and we have saved a good bit of money, even with a 3 year plan.

The teams are great to work with from sales to support. Its a great team to collaborate with.

We switched to this counter and software subscription after our traditional security gates quit working.

We rely on door counts for staffing, programming, and planning for our library. I am also very thankful for the one on one training and offer of ongoing support.

Excellent customer support from [SENSITIVE CONTENT] who spent a lot of time going through how the system worked and supported the install.

It is really easy to use and the real time app lets us see when we are nearing capacity and need to put a temporary hold on guests entering the space.

None that I can think at this time, however, for the experience I have using this software, I doubt there are any cons.

Great software for tracking your people counters.

It is easy to access and understand. Setup was not difficult at all.

The reporting options are incredibly detailed and fun to use.

Lots of features for exporting data, as well as visual reports that are pre-made that you can use. Very granular if needed.

The door counters are working well, but when we first installed them it was difficult to set them up with our wireless internet.

We haven't found anything we are unhappy about at this point.
