Likelihood to Recommend I believe Accruent is well suited for companies with a large amount of leased assets that need to be accounted for under the new accounting standard. Companies with fewer leases would not need an intricate tool of this size. It is suited for both real estate and equipment leases, which makes up the entirety of our portfolio.
Read full review It is great for organizations who have complex data or large amounts of data. For an organization that has small amounts of data or very simple processes TRIRIGA might be too much. It can handle small data and processes but the costs of implementing and supporting might be greater than the reward that would be provided. It also has a lot of room to grow. You can utilize existing forms and business objects or you can custom build new ones to fit business needs.
Read full review Pros Lucernex does an excellent job of listening to its customers to continue enhancing the product to make it the best in the industry and to continue to partner with their customers on this endeavor. Lucernex's product is an intuitive product that allows its end users to customize and manager their own fields and pages to tailor individual company's needs. Read full review Diverse categories of requests available Ability to be as descriptive as possible without character limit Ease of mass resource assignment for tasks Ease of mass maintenance task/request printing work orders Clean site layout that is easy to navigate Read full review Cons The sales person we worked with seemed to have some communication gaps when passing off to the implementation team. The implementation start was rocky due to enduring disconnect on our needs versus what was included in the SOW. As a client, we were not clear on what was fundamentally included in our SOW and how that would impact the end-product. Read full review In order to get into the back end and manage spaces, there are too many "clicks" and pop up boxes to get to the area that is needed, which causes delays and confusions. It can be a bit slow when processing requests, pulling up maps. Trigia holds a lot of information, which is good but it could be easier to get to at times. Read full review Usability I give it this rating because it has more than one way to get to most forms but it can be hard to navigate if you don't know the terms TRIRIGA uses. Also being a new developer can bring up issues with not knowing exactly where certain things are found. The documentation doesn't help too much sometimes since the TRIRIGA community is pretty small.
Read full review Reliability and Availability In the almost 7 months I have been working on my current project there has been exactly one unplanned outage. This was in the QA environment during data migration and was caused by a workflow that was circular and self referencing which caused the processing JAVA memory to spike, not resolve and then crash the server.
Read full review Performance TRIRIGA does a good job of this, being a server based web application it is like other web based systems so it's not as fast as a client server application or a local system but it is very consistent across locations and for different roles and employees. This does allow consistent use no matter where people are located. It also does a fair job of notifying the user when it is loading with the spinning circle or hour glass. The reports can get fairly complex but native TRIRIGA reports perform well even when they are complex. They can be a little slow if they are fetching 100's of 1000's of rows but this doesn't take more than 10 or so seconds. I have yet to write a native report that takes more than 20 seconds and that 20 second report is getting data from 4 BO's and nets over 130K rows.

Read full review In-Person Training The trainers were knowledgeable and engaging in presenting the materials, and their emphasis on important concepts was helpful (I would rate the trainers themselves a 9!). However, I do not believe there's anything we learned in the in-person training that could not have been taught via live web-classroom. Traveling a significant distance (in our case) to Austin, TX for only approx. 12 hours in the classroom was (in my opinion) not necessary, since the same material could have been presented via live web-classroom and saved us the expense and travel-time. I would encourage Lucernex to consider moving to a live web-classroom format in the future; an online live format would still allow for participation and questions from the participants while saving clients' time and money

Read full review Alternatives Considered I cannot recall exactly what other products we reviewed before choosing Lucernex, but one of the leading factors was how highly customizable the software was. We had previously been using Retail Lease which was an older program with buckets of data stored everywhere. During the data mapping process, we were able to easily find a home for all of this "random" data

Read full review Scalability TRIRIGA can be split into many servers and is easily scaled over multiple environments. TRIRIGA is also capable of being implemented on multiple operating systems and a wide range of environments with different database management systems. This makes it easy for clients to choose since they can choose vendors they have previous relationships with or are required to use for various reasons.
Read full review Return on Investment Lucernex was able to complete our business objective to manage and process all of our Lease Accounting entries within the software. Lucernex has enabled all of our departments to become better connected, work together to create synergies and transparency to better meet business objectives. Read full review It's a positive and works well with the business. It doesn't "stand out" from competitors but has great potential if updates were establisthed. The pros outweigh the cons when using Tririga. Read full review ScreenShots
