Positive. Once familiar with the application it is mostly user-friendly.

Functionality

Pros:

Map based. Data validated (e.g. selective lists).

Cons:

1. Setting notifications and contact list. I'd rather push the notification to myself and use our internally maintained notification list since the contact list in Municipal511 does not appear to be maintained. 2. Road closure options can be confusing to select. It would be nice if there was a tiered entry process, e.g. i) what is the location, ii) what is the activity, iii) what is/are the traffic impact(s) (lane closure, full closure, detour, etc.), iv) schedule/timing.

Vendor Response

Thanks Trevor for sharing your positive experience! It’s great to hear that the map-based interface and data validation features have been beneficial. We’re continuously working to enhance the user experience, and your feedback helps us identify areas for improvement, let's chat in detail. Thanks again!

Fantastic Product!

This App has been very useful for a situational awareness perspective for our Paramedic Duty Commanders as well aids in a central location for all road closures. This used to be stacks of faxed notices, now all live. Takes some effort to get all the other partners to buy in at the begining but its fantastic now.

Pros:

The ability to have all information, multiple layers all in one place is fantastic. We have also taken advantage of the abilty to create emergency management exercise layers to simulate a diaaster event. Very useful.

Cons:

Forgetting my password is annoying when you switch devices, but thats not a software problem. Can't think of anything specific i dont like off hand.

Not everything needs to be an email.

511 is necessary but shows more data than I require. For instance, I receive closure notices for communities I do not serve.

Functionality

Pros:

It's efficient, being able to schedule closings in advance is a great feature, user friendly.

Cons:

That when the notice is issued the From is Transnomis, this confuses people on regular occasions as they are unaware of what the email actually contains, and often delete. Then contact us to say they were not in receipt of the road issue. It would be a great improvement for the email to be noted as from "Town of Petrolia Notifications" rather then "Transnomis Notifications"

Vendor Response

Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad to hear that you find the platform efficient and user-friendly, especially with the advance scheduling feature. I’ve passed your suggestion about customizing the "From" field in notifications to our product team, as they’re currently planning some improvements in that area. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and will work on making this experience smoother for your recipients.

Would like the option to manually type in locations of incidents - sometimes the address or length of road is not as accurate as we would like it to be. However this is not a deal breaker.

Thanks, Khas, for your review! We’re glad to hear you are happy with your Municipal511 experience. Manual entry option is already supported, Andrew will be sending you a screenshot with instructions on how to do it. Appreciate your feedback!

Pros:

Ease of use, especially with editing issues, such as extending dates. Additionally the "last description" box in Entry Details.

Cons:

I tend to just copy and paste the Entry Detail in section 3 to the Comments section. It seems redundant. Possibly have the system auto generate the comments from section 3 to Comments with the ability to edit/add other comments?

Vendor Response

We’re glad you find Municipal511 easy to use, especially with editing issues and extending dates. Thanks for your suggestions regarding the Entry Details and Comments sections, we’ll make a note to discuss them further during our next check-in call. Thanks Gwyneth!
