Overall Satisfaction with Accruent EMS Software

We use EMS college wide to for academic scheduling and in our capacity to manage group reservations both with internal and external clients
We use it to manage our event space, classroom space and now use it to book AV services, shuttle buses for college events, requesting public safety officers and for financial reporting.
  • Schedulng space and requesting space to use for internal clients. Also good at identifying conflicts with space that may arise as academic classes always take presidence for event space being utilized.
  • Booking reminders for business, for example it helps me manage tasks I need to complete by a due date such as contract payments due, etc,
  • Tracking client transactions and client issues
  • Financial reporting is difficult to do through EMS, I wish we could have a system that synced with our business office accounting database (CARS). We report revenue in EMS and the business office logs in a completely different system.
  • Reminders for clients- currently I send reminders to clients, I am notified of due dates in EMS and have to go to Gmail to send a reminder. Also under reminders I wish the reservation # showed up on the dashboard like it does under notifications view...
  • A better way to merge contracts from EMS to a Word document
  • Booking reminders
  • Tracking revenue received
  • Reserving space
  • History of client contacts and busy
  • Not sure about this.
  • In general it is a great management system for our small college.
I was not involved in this decision, we have used EMS since 2010 and it took a long time for buy in from the rest of the college but we are slowly getting there
