    Ventiv Claims works beautifully for workers' compensation. It is easy to use for both field employees and Risk Management. The claim nearly creates itself by allowing the digital "Injury Reporting Form" the employee fills out when they report an injury to populate the claim itself. I have the employee's own description of the incident, which helps determine compensability. In addition, the support we receive from the Ventiv Claims team is second to none. We have a dedicated account manager who ensures our success and is always willing to step in and help whenever we have a question or want something to perform differently.

    • The Ventiv team is always ready to assist in solving complex issues in a very timely manner.
    • The entire Ventiv staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and always ready to help via phone, email, web ex. Our Customer Success Manager, Doug H. is the best! And Cindy H., Machella G., Josette D., Duane J. ...just to name a few.
    • Love the fact that aspects of our daily tasks are streamlined and can be completed in one central location from claims management, to reporting, policy renewals, and payment processing.

    Cons
    SPS Commerce
    • We have quite a few people here who use this portal, and we have it set up to receive an email when an order is available to print. As of now, you can only add a few recipients to receive those emails; it limits you.
    • Invoicing is challenging at times as you have to remember to go in and invoice. If you forgot, it is hard to find the order to invoice, as it seems to disappear.
    • We still haven't figured out how to have some of the invoicing features auto-populate, so there isn't so much to fill out. I wish some of those features were easier to use, or find if you have them.

    If I can drop it, I will this year. We gave it a decent try for over 4 years and it has gotten worse with each added connection.

    We have been using Ventiv Claims for over ten years, and there is a wealth of information in the system. We have not seen any other system that compares to the Ventiv Claims environment.

    Overall, the system is easy to use. Some fields are redundant within the system, which makes it a little confusing, but once you choose which to use, you can easily hide the other field from users so they do not enter information in the other field.

    Support Rating
    SPS Commerce
    Phone support is generally very good and you can get a person on the phone within a few minutes. Their emailed customer support however is very poor and often goes several days or longer before receiving a response, if ever at all

    Overall the support is really good. There are only a few instances where the support could not figure out how to resolve issues we have encountered quickly.

    During any training provided by Ventiv, the sessions are always two ways. It is not just a lecture that you sit through, they are generally question and answer type sessions that are very good at getting the point across. By keeping the sessions small and manageable, Ventiv can provide the training necessary so that all of the users feel comfortable.

    Our implementation specialist was exceptional! She went above and beyond in helping us get everything set up the way we wanted it and provided the necessary training to myself, who is the administrator of CE. There was a key piece that was missed by Ventiv during our negotiations before implementation that required us to go back and ended up costing us more money for our incident intake form.

    In my opinion, SPS Commerce is the bottom out of all three provided here. I think, essentially, if you are looking to be hands off and only oboard on setup and don't plan on growing your business and want to not understand anything about EDI and how it affects your company, SPS Commerce is a fine choice. Just if you want to do anything beyond that, I believe you are going to have the worst time.

    I have not met with any other RMIS vendors in a very long time. They reach out all the time; however there's no sense in wasting anyone's time. I am happy with Ventiv, there are times I may get upset because there is no response when I ask for something. But I chalk it up to my issue is not top priority.

    Return on Investment
    SPS Commerce
    • I enrolled in a product I ended up not using because the vendor that required it ended our working relationship and SPS refused to offer a refund. After I canceled it, they continued to charge our account for three more months of service.
    • The interface is simple and easy to understand and use, so it saved time when preparing shipments.

    • We pay about $100K per year in support/update fees it has been very difficult to justify these fees as we don't use support much and many of the updates simply brought the product to an approximate level to what we thought we were purchasing in the first place.
    • Self-hosting and owning the software rather than SaaS is an incredible value.
