Public Safety Pro powered by Incode vs. RationalPlan

Using the entire Incode Public Safety suite (CAD/Mobile CAD/RMS/E-Citations/Court) allows municipal police departments to create a connected system of information that can share records and reduce the administrative burden on staff to complete the necessary steps of completing all law enforcement reports. But, if you cannot bundle the systems using IPS as a stand-along RMS system will help departments complete professional, detailed, and accurate reports and be able to research crime data to direct resources. Some small departments may not have a dedicated drug investigator function, but for those that do, their system needs to add a narcotics module to better manage informants, buy money expenditures, case data. There are ways to use the system to accomplish these tasks but can be improved.

Appropriate as a great alternative to MS Project. RationalPlan provides most of the features needed to develop and maintain mid-level complex schedules. Less Appropriate for large complex schedules of long duration. These can be a challenge due to Duration at top-level. It is also a challenge to generate reports for management - reporting feature is limited.

• Report dashboards-user defined updated.
• Mobile CAD-Calls, maps, chat messages, and alerts.
• Accurate electronic IBR data transfer.

• Portfolio view is great to get a feel for how your programme is running at a glance and which areas possibly might require attention. The fact that you can customise your view by adding your own columns is another plus.
• All project information in one tool is a big plus for me considering the amount of projects we run with. This really improves efficiency and saves me time. You have the ability to add documents to tasks, manage risks, email resources tasks due for projects they are assigned to(might need some refinement depending on your requirements), material db with costing etc.

• The addition of a narcotics module would allow for better management of confidential informants or a source separate from the master name index files.
• Advanced property room management functions using bar code scanning devices.
• Same options for date ranges across all fields. The ability to choose the "Last 24 hours" style instead of the date range makes selection much easier to pull data. Many fields have this function but not all.

I had to ask for support once and got a response immediately.

RationalPlan is cost-effective and allows most users to prepare and manage their schedule. The software lacks comprehensive reporting and duration changes at the top level of a project.

• IPS delivered a product as described and demonstrated by the sales team-it will do what they say it will do and do it well!
• Provide citizens and elected officials accurate crime data
• User-defined reports approval flows, that include use of force reporting embedded into the incident, accurate property room management, and master name, vehicle, and gun index to track each of these items.
