This software is a complete package allowing us to take manage and monitor requests from customers and work orders. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The overall completeness of the software for our buisness needs. #### Cons Implementing the software and learning all the features was a bit of a challenge, but well worth learning. --- ### Cost-Effective Solution for Asset and Inventory Management - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Luke L. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Government Administration - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2024 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review. Quite please with no major complaints. There's a bit of a learning curve, but once you get the hang of it, it's great being able to tailor the program to your unique needs. Customer support is quite responsive and has helped us with a couple of solutions to some unique problems and ideas we've had. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The level of customization on asset forms, request forms, and user profiles and groups. I was able to easily set up profiles so department employees don't have to see the assets and inventory for other departments, making the program much easier for them to navigate. The customization on forms is especially useful to us, as we can set up a lot of conditional logic for different asset and request types. It's helped us keep track of lots of data we weren't previously able to. It's helped us pull financial data for insurance and audits far easier than before, too. #### Cons Some of the UI elements are a bit dated in appearance. Some features, such as the workflow designer, can be a bit difficult to use as a result. In general, though, the simpler appearance works in the program's benefit. I feel if it were more complicated graphically, it would be more difficult to navigate. --- ### Asset Manager - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Doug S. - Product usage: Used unspecified for unspecified - Reviewed: September 2012 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered We haven't really got into using it very deeply yet, so I don't know what my recommendation would be. As of now I'm not singing praises....yet....we'll see. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Customer support: 4/5 #### Pros The browser based feature was one of the main reasons for purchase. Support was very helpful during install. #### Cons The fact that screen features for other modules are present in the single Asset module we purchased is very confusing as to what works and what doesn't. The documentation on your site and through the software is severely lacking. Once again, the fact that the doc for all modules is lumped together makes it hard to find anything. #### Vendor response Doug's review was for our classic Novo Asset Manager product. It was part of a multi-app Service Desk solution which did include documentation for the other apps. In 2014 we released our completely new ShareNet Asset Management Cloud solution and have updated this listing for this new product. ShareNet also has other apps you can subscribe to in the suite. These apps can be completely segmented or tightly integrated depending on how the solution is configured. Unfortunately Doug has to have an in-house application and our new ShareNet Cloud Platform is not an option for him. In speaking with him today it seems he has been pretty pleased with the Novo Asset Manager (after he got it fully implemented) and he has remained current on support. Replied February 2015 --- ### The learning curve has been longer than we hoped for, but we're getting there. - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Michael A. - Industry: Transportation/ Trucking/ Railroad - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2017 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Has greatly improved our ability to hold ourselves to response timeliness and evaluated our performance. Has integrated all our customer feedback into a single datastream with key parts of it requiring no manual intervention. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Once we figure it out, it seems it can do everything we need, and it's been able to integrate with other systems. It's clearly going to be able to grow with our future needs, unlike our previous product. #### Cons The end user (in our case, primarily customer service staff) have a fairly clunky user experience. There's a lot of jargon and non-obvious ways of executing things. Seem to have had a few more technical glitches than expected. Some of the integrations were very hard to get configured and honestly we're still not 100% sure they're all working right. Really does seem to require not just a champion but an in-house expert. #### Vendor response This review was for our ShareNet software. We have made A LOT of User Interface and Functionality enhancements since 2017. Replied May 2024 --- ### Easy to use Work Order Software - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Stephanie B. - Industry: Government Administration - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: January 2019 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered This software took us from managing paper to being able to keep all of our work and completed work virtually. It is very helpful, time ad cost saving. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros This software is beyond easy to use. It is user friendly and keeps all the information we need to keep the work flow moving. #### Cons N/A, currently we have not run into any cons to report at this time. #### Vendor response Thank you for your review of our ShareNet software. Replied May 2024 --- ### Sharenet has been a very valuable tool for my organization, helps us manage a lot of odd items. - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Stephen P. - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2017 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. The system has really helped us implement and manage our surplus program. It laid a great foundation for us to grow it. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros The software has a very solid platform with excellent customer support. The built in training videos make understanding the system much easier. The system is also very customizable and can be tailored to track pretty much whatever you want #### Cons The system seems to be a little out of date, the app isn't all that great and for the price there seem to be some key features missing. #### Vendor response We have made A LOT of enhancements to the User Interface and Functionality since 2017. Replied May 2024 --- ### A Random Title: My Review - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Robert H. - Product usage: Used unspecified for unspecified - Reviewed: August 2012 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered A KB product needs to do two things well: (1) Support staff need to create articles quickly and easily (2) End users need to find content quickly and easily Unfortunately, these are Novo's two primary weaknesses. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 2/5 - Customer support: 5/5 #### Pros Web-based KB product is independent from Help Desk package Customer Support is excellent #### Cons Search engine is horrible and is what will ultimately kill the product at our organization. WYSIWYG editor is difficult to work with. It inserts it's own code; makes odd corrects; and it works best only with IE. Cannot build articles based on permissions like you can with wiki apps I've seen. Why is this important? If you have an article with content for three different viewers (example: end-user content; additional content for help desk agents; even more content for tier 2 support agents) requires 3 articles instead of one. Difficult to embedded videos that then can be sent as an e-mail message to end-users. Without going in to a lot of detail as to what that means, basically, I can make your product do what I need but not without A LOT of manual manipulation. --- ### Review of Product - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Marta C. - Product usage: Used unspecified for unspecified - Reviewed: September 2012 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered This is a very good product. It is very easy to use and has made maintaining our knowledgebase very easy to do. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 #### Pros We used another product before migrating to the Novo Solutions KnowledgeBase platform. This has greatly simplified our knowledgebase updating and maintenance. The updates take place immediately which is a great time-saver. Our agents have access to the most current information when they need it. #### Cons Reporting. This feature is not very intuitive and could probably stand significant enhancements. I could use reports on who is logging in and when. We are billed on a login basis but I don't have any reports to tell me how many logins occurred. I really need that type of report. #### Vendor response Our Novo Portal software has a Knowledge Base Article View Log feature (added in 2015) that allows users to create detail and summary reports with the built in Report Writer. This provides a high level of visibility into how the Knowledge Base is being used and who is using it. Replied May 2024 --- ### Feedback - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Dhiraj G. - Product usage: Used unspecified for unspecified - Reviewed: August 2012 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered It's simple and works for us now, but if we get bigger and more mature with our processes, the push for us to get a more comprehensive tier 1 system will come forward. I feel Novo could add those features too, but then don't know how much effort it will take. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 #### Pros It's very simple and easy to use and make changes to configurations. Doesnt need a lot of ramp up time to be able to use the tool. #### Cons There's quite a lot of enhancement requests, functionality we desire to make the system meet our needs more. Novo could develop those if possible in the future - Mature process around service levels, response time tracking by statuses, Customer Requests Search functionality, Reporting for Customers, be able to paste screenshots in tickets, --- ### Great Product - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: James T. - Product usage: Used unspecified for unspecified - Reviewed: September 2012 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered I would recommend this product to any organization that needs a workorder system for help desk, knowledgebase, and overall ease of use. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 #### Pros We've been using Novo for several years now, and it performs great. Very little maintenance, and gets the job done. Not time consuming and intuitive to use. #### Cons every now and then the active directory integration stops work and you have to reopen your browser or sometime restart the server/services. Not really a big deal though #### Vendor response This review was for our Novo Portal Knowledge Base Software.
