Overall, the functionality and accessibility of PowerDMS is good. However I wish the company would deliver on what they previously promise and make some components of the platform more intuitive such as course design, search features, documents that are supported, etc.

Functionality

Pros:

It can be accessed anywhere or through their app, can search for items, easy to upload, and serves as a great location for policy, courses, accreditation.

Cons:

There are some technical issues in terms of updates not always working, searching features malfunctioning, and a lot of unnecessary and excessive clicking. There are also restrictions about file types which if it could be uploaded would make the platform more beneficial to the organization.

Pros:

Works great for policy/document management. This product is really the standard for accreditation management.

Cons:

The product can seem very basic at times. Can be good and bad, but I don’t see as much “expansion” or “growth” with the program. I also would like to see improvements in notifications (desktop) and integration with Google Calendar.

Reasons for switching to PowerDMS
