User Testimonials
	Synoptix
Likelihood to Recommend	Synoptix Synoptix has been great for us to allow end users access to the data and information they need to make informed decisions without letting them have full access to all ERP functions. It has also been very easy to create custom reports that meet our needs. It is also nimble enough to create quick reports that are needed with a small turnaround Incentivized DJ DEVON JENKS Director of Budgeting and Accounting Read full review
Pros	Synoptix Easy report building interface with an query interface that allows financial users the ability to conduct complex queries without difficulty. The ability to create reporting that allows us to review in-depth financial review by drilling down into accounts to find transnational data easily. Easily maintained and monitored with simple upgrade installations and end point installation. Great knowledge base for review and trouble-shooting. Highly knowledgeable and easy to work with staff. Incentivized Logan Morris Business Analyst Read full review
Cons	Synoptix It has a poor install procedure which is not standard. It almost requires copying folders from an existing computer to the new install. The update process is less than desirable. It seems like Compusoft needs to do a better job of testing before releasing updates. The interface is a bit archaic. It looks more like a program from 20 years ago than one used today. Incentivized Tracy Burton Network Administrator Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	Synoptix There is no question that we will continue to use this product for as long as it's available Incentivized Traci Hemmerlin CPA Controller Read full review
Usability	Synoptix It didn't take long to learn how it works and has always been easy to navigate and accomplish all that we have needed. Whenever there have been any issues Synopotix has been great to address them in a timely manner and have always been able to resolve the issues we have had Incentivized DJ DEVON JENKS Director of Budgeting and Accounting Read full review
Support Rating	Synoptix Support does not know much about software solutions. As an example, I have struggled for weeks just to set up LDAP that should be fairly simple. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Implementation Rating	Synoptix Good guidance of what steps will halppen. JJ Jomer Jimenez Business and Finance Systems Analyst Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Synoptix Synoptix is more oriented to users as their own developers. You do not need to understand any sort of coding or languages. If you are working in financials you just need to know your trial balance. The menus and programing are so user friendly the programming is "kinda obvious" Incentivized Traci Hemmerlin CPA Controller Read full review
Return on Investment	Synoptix As a reporting tool it has allowed us to make fact based decisions. We have a significant annual cost with relation to our legacy system and Synoptix provides us with the best tool to mine the data that resides in our legacy system.
