    I have kept very close watch on my net worth, and Empower was an incredibly useful tool in giving me a relatively updated display aggregating all of my personal accounts. Frustratingly it wasn't able to integrate a mutual fund that I own, but it was able to for everything else

    vTiger packs a ton of functionality and capability, but the challenge is getting there. In today's day where everyone is doing more with less, having a solution that meets a couple specific needs and does that well is essential. To me, at times I feel as though vTiger is trying to be a "jack of all trades" solution which ultimately ends up making it more confusing to use. However, on the flip side of that, if you take the time to learn everything about vTiger, I am sure it is an awesome tool but there is a learning curve associated with it. Finally, I would like to see more integrations with other vendors moving forward so if we cannot use vTiger for everything, at least it would have the ability to "talk" with other programs.

    • Though you can create reports however you want, they may need to come out in multiple files. I wish this could be aggregated.
    • It's still very simple. There is room for improvement with the setup of the admin panel.
    • The dropdowns function funny when scrolled down. It's picky but it's frustrating.
    • The search function could be improved.

    Usability
    Empower ERP
    I love how it can aggregate most of my personal accounts, but my mutual fund account that I have with a wealth management firm from home won't integrate with it for some reason.

    In the Last versions they have done a strong effort in creating a powerful data screen. Inside the screen you have access to signing, communications with multiple tools integration and connections with all modules related. With a single view you have all control over your data relations. It is similar to a control managing.

    Had a past participant from 20 years ago, receive a letter from the government saying they might have a retirement account. Empower helped this employee and I didn't have to play detective concerning this person. They back tracked to Merrill Lynch to find this former participant and help her. I was impressed.

    It is as good as you could expect for a company that operates from another continent. Emails are quickly responded to and do not usually require additional questions or answers. It is quite rare for a company of their size to be as responsive as they are and that makes them a sound choice to deal with.

    It stood out when compared for features, legacy, customer support, and on-premises deployment.

    VTiger had better overall cost and native capabilities that other solutions lacked. We used Nutshell CRM for over a year. It was a very efficient contact management system, but it seemed that if we needed to do anything but record contacts, we had to use an add-on. We spent a lot of time exporting and importing between different services. Quoting, invoicing, and payments all had to be manually transferred to our accounting system. It was very frustrating

    • It has improved employee experience and is a good tool for management to track things.

    • Integration Across the Organization - What started out as just a CRM tool for sales is now being used for ticket management and project management.
    • Steep Learning Curve - It is not as intuitive out of the box and really requires a dedicated person to be a vTiger expert which can be challenging and time consuming.
    • Reliability - Sometimes features that worked yesterday don't work today, thus causing more time to complete the same exact task that was done previously. The thing that comes to mind specifically is the main search box as 1/2 the time it works, 1/2 the time it doesn't work.
