Bonterra Apricot vs. Intapp Conflicts

Secure case note documentation: It is well-suited for organizations like the NAMI Living Room that need a secure, reliable system for storing sensitive client information and maintaining confidentiality. Also, it allows for continuity of care as staff can easily access past notes and track progress.

Intapp is great for storing your conflicts database and files associated with matters. I find that its user interface is really friendly. I have yet to see an analyst that does not quickly learn how it functions. Going through files can be a little bit more onerous because the way they are listed and naming conventions can vary, but overall I find it a very helpful tool for running conflicts

• Allows us to set notification reminders when residents of our program advance through out program
• Allows us to create reports tailored to the information that we need
• Allows us to update information efficiently and in real time so that everyone on the team can be on the same page.

• Allows for easy review of conflicts within the database
• Has a very friendly user interface
• Easy ability to communicate with downstream teams and local offices
• Customizable searches with search parameters (default settings)

• The Connect feature is poor. We were hoping to use it to send resources to families geographically, but the system does not have that function to filter at this time. A way to filter the people you want to message without having to do it manually is needed
• Apricot can run very slow in general and I have to hit the refresh button multiple times
• N/A

Incentivized

• Dark Mode option would make for a friendlier user experience
• Being able to paste outside information directly from copying (i.e., do not have to use a notepad to avoid formatting issues)
• An easily accessible user guide (one click access)

I went to the Summit a few weeks ago to learn about the future expansion and vision of Social Solutions. I already been with Apricot for 5 years and researched other products I still come back to Apricot and where it can grow with us.

Without any formal IT education, I was able to utilize their articles and videos to teach myself how to configure and customize the software to our organization (although I do recommend their Apricot Admin training to polish your skills). The majority of users are able to adapt immediately with minimal training.Staff that have challenges with technology in general do adapt to using the system once you can create buy in and engagement (although it does take time and training)

It is usually available when I need to use it

The system does tend to run slowly when pulling more complex reports

This is a difficult question to answer because when I hear the word "support" I think of this in multiple levels. The customer service on the front end, with my account manager is pretty good. There was a time for about a year and a half where I didn't even want to get to know this persons name because they wouldn't be there there long enough for me to get to know them. For the past 8-9 months we've had the same account manager, and this is helpful as a way to grow our trust in Apricot social solutions as well as the account manager understanding the needs of our organization. The technical support is also fine. The issues we most have problems with is how the technical support is calculated and the lack of roll-over of technical support time. If our account has 1 hour of technical support per month, but we don't need any technical support for 4 months, it would be great to have the ability to use those 4 hours (as time allows per the IT calendar) when we need them, even if it falls within one month. We've also had instances of working with IT persons who didn't seem to care at all about our issues, and seemed eager to put our call behind them and get onto the next without much thought as to why we were calling them in the first place. We've also had instances where the IT person didn't seem to really be listening to what it is we needed, and was heck bent on what they THOUGHT we needed rather than listening to what we actually did need. While we also have had experiences of working with IT persons who were absolutely great at working through issues. They were patient and understanding and would explain why a solution (c)would or (c)would not work. We even worked through those options in real time if they were unsure whether a data solution would work or not. That was great because we felt heard.

There need to be specialists who know how to best work with an organization developing a new program, not just transferring existing forms to a digital format.

We also use a state database called ETO that tracks case notes for our families, but doesn't give us the ability to analyze things like gross annual income growth for our families during their time in the program, # of housing applications completed, etc. It is solely used to track case notes regarding case management meeting content. Apricot allows us to generate statistics we can use to source funding and prove our efficiency as an organization as we continue to market our coaching model. ETO does not have this benefit.

I have only ever used Intapp in the law firm setting. My only other experience is using legal and research search engines, which do not fit within the realm of Intapp per se.

I have never had a problem with the system

• Consistent, accurate financial records of program spending are to be provided to Grant Funders.
• One-stop shop for all program records, including past, current, and waitlisted clients.
• Continued partnership with Grant Funders due to the ease on both sides with the Bonterra Apricot Software.

• It helps reduce risk to our firm
• It has allowed us to have the forms we use be interconnected, so we avoid wasting time on submission of separate forms
• The report we have now also allows Partners to review conflicts on their own even without us providing a summary (helpful for afterhours for the Partners)
