Read full review This software is very well suited for law enforcement agencies of all sizes from 5 to 5000 officers. There is a mobile app that allows officers to quickly and easily search while out in the field or on a call. They can quickly review a policy, locate a form, pull up a map and much more using either the mobile app or the desktop application.
Read full review Pros Highly engaging and discussion proceedings. Successful integration with various platforms such as those of recruitment and collaboration. Well defined business operations or roles of every employee. Read full review Policy management- [Users] sign for, and can take [tests] to prove understanding of policy right in the application. As [the] policy is updated, old versions are retained, so that we not only know what a policy contains, we can track changes and provide information on what a policy was at any given time in the past. Training- Users receive notifications when training is due and are guided to complete the training. If the training requires recertification, PowerDMS can be configured to alert the user that re-training is needed, without a supervisor needing to keep track. All documents used in training, including presentations and videos, can be contained in the PowerDMS course, so we can prove not only that an employee was trained, but exactly what curriculum was use din any given training. Accreditation Assessment- [Our] accreditation standards manual is uploaded directly into PowerDMS. Proofs are accomplished using the actual policy and procedure, as well as the documents created during the workday. There is absolutely no duplication of effort. Communications accountability- Email [can] be read and forgotten. With PowerDMS, a document can be distributed for user signatures, insuring that the user took affirmative action to read and understand the document. Read full review Cons Content editor. It is clunky to use their native editor to format content. Website organization. Many important features are hidden and hard to find. Website navigation. It's challenging to edit one place in a workflow without losing your place in the website where you were before. Read full review The Workflow process in PowerDMS is not as easy to grasp as some of the other concepts and requires a little more explaination, especially for non-administrative background users. Users are unable to view the steps in a Workflow template in order to determine which Workflow would work best for their needs when routing documents. It would be great to have multiple message options for past due inbox notifications in addition to the options for past due tasks to encourage users to go to their inbox to review their messages.

If we ever run into a situation we are unsure of, PowerDMS support has ALWAYS been able to answer us basically immediately. I really love that they are constantly seeking to improve and expand.

Read full review Usability Really easy to get started, largely drag and drop. If you get stuck, the support team is always there to help!
Read full review There is a learning curve as with any software system and I have found those users who consistently use the system more have a much higher success rate than those who only log in to sign off on documents. Now that most users have been in the system for over 2 years I consistently hear how much easier the processes are than they originally thought they would be

Read full review Performance We use PowerDMS in the cloud so our performance might be different from other users who use on-premise. The program has always been up with very minimal downtime and always seems responsive and snappy when navigating the UI and searching documents. We don't currently have any integrations with other software.
Read full review Support Rating It all started when they first contacted us to trial the product - it was the best vendor pitch that I had encountered in over 20 years. It turned out to be a great reflection of the whole team we worked with during the implementation and ongoing stages. They are highly responsive to your needs and requests and open to supporting different ways to use their products
Read full review I just wish we had some in-state support. The contacts I have had with customer support have been great. Awesome communication, problem-solving, and support. I have talked to and met Stephanie Williams (CSA for Power DMS) at the most recent Entrust conference. She was professional and devoted time to addressing our agency needs.

Read full review Online Training Online training works well and keeps from having to have classroom training
Read full review Implementation Rating Implementation of PowerDMS was near seamless. The product was able to input existing policies and procedures within a few hours, which helped to lay the foundation for future use. Having PowerDMS on-boarding readily available was also a huge benefit.
Read full review Alternatives Considered As an organisation, we have evaluated many Engagement and people connection software before shortlisting and testing these software and finally selecting 1 software. It helps in designing people-centric programs and people engagement. It helps your employees to cut through the clutter and have meaningful conversations. It has a user-friendly interface that helps and encourages employee participation. It helps build a Learning and Development program for all.
Read full review PowerDMS is a lot different than Linkedin Learnings. In PowerDMS you have to create your own courses versus in Linkedin Learnings they provide extensive content on a wide variety of subject matter. Linkedin Learnings is what we have used in our organization for Bias Training and Ethics Training. PowerDMS is the repository for documents and Trainings, so the systems work very differently
