    Pros:
    It is easy to use for both ourselves and the members who are actively using the platform. There is lots of support within the platform to support the customers and help them with their journey.
    Cons:
    The video function is still something we get regular feedback about. Having Teams integration would be much better.

    Over the 3 years of use of this product we have had no problems with its functionality. We have regular 6 monthly reviews with the PLD team where we discuss and feedback our experiences of using it. Overall I cannot fault it or the support from the team. It's a good product. The platform is easy to navigate and in terms of branding it up with our logos and style it's simple and easy to use and to make changes.

    Pros:
    The automation built within the platform is really useful. Having mentors and mentees creating their own profiles online is of great value. It takes the burden of admin away from us and places the onus on the users to develop their own profiles. Having everything in the one platform is great for resource efficiency.
    Cons:
    From an admin and review of mentor and mentee registrations it would be better if we could get a view of the full stakeholder profiles to allow for quicker approval rather than just skeletal details.

    Pros:
    UK based company. Ease of contact. Ability to flex and customise to our needs. Competitive pricing. UK based support. Experience with other similar organisations. Content, documentation and resources provided helped speed up deployment and took a lot of burden off us to produce. The people at PLD truly know the market and understand the mentoring process and industry. This experience is invaluable when you are new to this area.
    Cons:
    Didn't seem as 'slick' as some of the others we looked at, but this is more than outweighed that its functionality and ease of use.

    Pros:
    Exceptional value, considering the depth of support we've recieved from the PLD team (right from the start - through to the present day, a couple of years into our journey with them). The mentoring platform they've provided us with has significantly improved ease of use for clients and lightened the administrative burden on the delivery team.
    Cons:
    Nothing so far, any queries we've had have been addressed and where feasible - adaptions at PLD's end have been incorporated.

    Great for networking

    It has been a good platform to connect people, although we have more mentees than mentors, so getting people onboard hasn't been easy, especially with recruiting mentors. It's a great way to connect people at the early stages of their career to ask questions to someone senior, so i think it's very useful, especially to match people in similar sectors of medicine. It allows an opportunity to connect with people in different hospitals at a distance and using a remote form of communication works well.

    Pros:
    That it's a intuitive platform allowing the mentee/mentor to self navigate, rather than a lot of admin work for us.
    Cons:
    It would be good if there was an easier way to view stats and the progression in number form rather than graph.
