Overall Satisfaction with Ascentis

We are using HR Ascentis for our HRIS system. At this time, we have our training, operations, and employee outreach departments accessing the program to utilize its reporting features for up to date employee lists and job locations.
It allows other departments to pull this information at any time. The hiccup is sometimes after an Ascentis update, the employee's information may look correct, but once we start trying to pull reports the information will end up jumbled up. When we address with Ascentis, we don't sometimes get a direct answer on why it happened.
  • Information at your finger tips
  • Available to integrate into other programs
  • Zooming in isn't an option, it's very difficult to use a large computer screen with HR Ascentis. The program will still be very small.
  • Some reports aren't available for us to pull to do information audits and when we bring this up to support, we have to end up paying for the "extra features"
  • Allows us to have multiple departments to see and pull reports on information they need while still being able to specify what information they can or cannot see
Their support team is very helpful, although at times the support line goes straight to voicemail. If there are issues with the system and they know it exists sometimes they don't send an alert until the day after.
Great for allowing multiple departments to have access since admins can specify what information is available to other users.
