All-inclusive pricing structure is based on the number of clients.
During COVID, ADP Workforce Now was great about keeping up with changing laws and regulations. They built reports that helped us apply for PPP loans and then later apply for forgiveness. Webinars and other training avenues were well constructed, accurate, and informative. We were all at a loss together and having a partner who ensured the legal side was met was one less worry. They can easily do the day-to-day compliance and regulatory things. COVID highlighted how quickly it could be done.
If you like data and analyzing data then Axiscare is well suited for your outfit. If you have office staff members that are not very computer-savvy or interested in deeper dives into numbers then my belief is that AxisCare may not be the best software for you, as it may seem like too much information. However, AxisCare's support teams have been helpful to us and I am sure they could help navigate any difficulties an agency may have.
Providing the scheduling team with the tools to share client/ visit information with the caregivers.
Documentation. From client visit notes to managerial notes about an employee to keeping track of chat conversations. These are all great ways to hold people in the company accountable.
Helps me keep a "To Do List" better known as the Tasks Dashboard. I can write quick notes of what I need to do or I can assign the task to someone in the company.
The ability to customize reports is very helpful. I am looking forward to all of the legacy reports getting updated to the more customizable form.
The ability to auto-run and share reports is extremely helpful. I don't have to remember every day, week, or month to run the report. All I need to do is check my email and AxisCare Home Care Software sends me a notice telling me my report is done.
The ability to create our own forms is convenient. AxisCare Home Care Software will also build a form for us if we request it and pay a small fee.
AxisCare Home Care Software is integrated with different companies that provide services in a way to streamline it instead of having to find some program or company that is outside of AxisCare Home Care Software. For example, we now use AxisCare Home Care Software to complete all of our Background Checks.
Updating all reports, the reports that are still old are really hard to use and the custom reports aren't nearly as functional as the others.
Medicaid Mileage should be added in as a part of the authorizations so that we can track the available miles just like we do the hours.
Ability to text or message contacts or the responsible parties of leads - just one way messaging but bc the first steps of acquiring a lead are email / text / call it makes it hard to complete that in a secure way. If we had to text normally we open ourselves up for HIPAA concerns but we could one way text instead to get in touch with the lead and know that we are staying compliant.
Admin app should be fully functional for medications and MARs - you can't manage any of that from the Admin app and have to use the website instead. This is hard to work with when in the field or updating a med list while on an assessment with a client.
Offline mode on the App - both CG and Admin app have glitchy offline mode that makes it kinda useless at times.
Due to the lack of support from the sales and service center we are looking at other options outside of ADP. Again it is a good system, it just lacks the support it deserves from the company employees. It is just unimaginable that you will need to reach out to a service provider several times for the same issue and not get it resolved.
AxisCare Home Care Software has a lot of features that are helpful in the roles we play at [...] Arkansas. The support is fantastic! I do wish there were more features for users to store documents for themselves such as weekly task lists and monitoring forms that they would normally email to me or upload to Google Drive for storage. This however isn't something that would cause our company to switch software programs.
I would give it a 10 however I do not like when ADP does facelifts in Workforce Now which does not add any value other than having to relearn navigation. I am also not a big fan of being forced to refer to the Bridge. We have Google which gives the same results. If I understood the answer I would not contact our Account Rep.
Once use to the system Axis Care is fairly easy to navigate and is a pretty clean system. I wish the main profile page for clients and caregivers were laid out more similarly (Ex: Classes for a caregiver are on the main profile page but the classes for clients are hiding under their billing tab. Another example is there's a Notes tab for clients but everything in that tab for a caregiver is located on their profile page) It would make it easier for new user training and knowledge retention if they were located in the same spots
We had no issues with the availability of the system, it has been reliable so far, the only issues were geo location at some point due to staff being in rural areas, geo location will fail to pick up.
Overall, I think the functionality of the program works pretty well. Sometimes, certain browsers do not work well for the policy function of ADP, but that is the only issue thus far
this is my only down side of ADP, they dont transfer you around a lot (Good) and try to tackle the issue right there, but the english barrier is sometimes a huge brick that stands in the way, and can result in the wrong outcome. There has been times I have asked for someone else as I thought it was getting done wrong, and was still able to get the assistance I needed, just took me explaining it twice
They have been incredibly helpful and willing to assist with every situation we have encountered. There have been some instances where they were unsure of what the issue we were experiencing was or how to fix it. They attempted though and were very responsive.
In-person training was pretty good - I think this significantly depends on the trainer. Our trainer was really good and showed what ADP can do - but I know that all trainers are not the same - and this truly makes such as difference. Overall, our training went pretty well.
The training was easy to implement and understand. We had no issues completing all the training offered by the Axis staff. They were all very knowledgeable about the product and walked us through every step until the go-live day. We did the hand-holding until the end, our staff was very pleased with the patience of our trainers and thankful for their understanding, helping to be sure we were well-trained and ready for our go-live date. We are grateful. Thanks again to the trainers.
At the time training was not as expansive as it is now. If it could go wrong it did for me so the process was difficult and lengthy. I needed to have more in person walkthroughs of things to ensure the transition was done correctly. Not sure what else I can say, we were part of the initial move to Workforce Now when it was introduced.
I would give this training a high rating because it was thorough and easy to understand. The trainers were detailed and very helpful throughout the transition process. They promptly addressed any concerns or issues, making it simple to set up the new Axis system and app. The support received when we encountered minor issues was excellent as well; they worked with us until everything was functioning properly. Overall, the experience was smooth and effective, leading to a successful implementation of the system.
Either assign more than one specialist to the implementation process, or assign less clients to the implementation specialist. The process requires attention to detail and the ability to test and re-test as well as verify the information. It also requires a lot of back and forth between the client ant the implementation specialist, so they need to be readily available during the whole implementation process.
They pale compared to ADP because they each have broken systems that do not flow from beginning to end. Another system is required to support all of the functions needed to process payroll. That puts too much on me, the person, instead of the system. We should work smarter, not harder.
We used eRSP solutions before switching to AxisCare Home Care Software. I think AxisCare Home Care Software does a better job at organization and definitely better with customization than eRSP. AxisCare Home Care Software also has more features than eRSP did.
We have been able to grow with ADP from just a few hundred employees to over 10,000 so it's actually very scalable for payroll usage. We do not use the benefits and onboarding offerings for most of our employees but they are built to scale easily enough for when our corporate team has over 1,000 FTE.
ADP WorkforceNow has provided a positive ROI for our company. It has saved me countless hours in the time I used to spend preparing reports, managing benefits, and annual enrollment, recruitment tracking, and much more.
The integration with Payscale has allowed our company to take every position in our organization and benchmark it to industries and job titles. This has allowed us to be more competitive on recruitment and retention.
We have used the new DE&I dashboard to provide valuable information on the landscape of our workforce, as well as areas of our organization that may not be as diverse.
AxisCare data is critical to our company profitability, growth, and efficiency. The ability to utilize data effectively provides us with the means to grow and expand responsibly.
Our projections for business growth suggest we will double our new client setup labor (AxisCare setup) for the same amount of profit stream. Only with the efficiency of AxisCare will it be possible to support the added labor required for this effort.
End of month reports, quarterly reports, progress notes, and billing data are supported well by AxisCare. These items could be streamlined to further reduce our data processing labor.
AxisCare is missing client associated protocol plans and other risk assessment documents. These should be available to the client and caregiver as associated with the needs of that client.
