Overall Satisfaction with Apricot by Social Solutions
Apricot is being used across the program to track participant information and outcomes.
- User-friendly data entry
- Easy search and navigation features
- Ability to create reports on data points of interest
- Not able to restrict access of certain information to just one person or team
- Multiple users can edit a form at the same time, but only the last one saved will be retained. An alert was created to let the second user know that someone else was working in the file. However, we wanted a read-only option such as what exists in shared word documents.
- We have two distinct programs with 2 different tier-one forms. This has created a problem because it is like having 2 separate data bases that do NOT talk to each other. When I came into the company in 2016, it had already been built this way. I was told the only way to fix it was to basically start from scratch. We opted to leave it as 2 separate databases.
- For us, since we are not really a business, but a social service organization, Apricot has had a positive impact by allowing us to track our outcome measures.
This is not applicable to our program
Apricot has enabled us to secure more funding because we have data readily available for grant applications and reports to funders.
