Overall Satisfaction with EMS Software
Good for academic scheduling, conference and event management, resource management, and billing.
- Academic scheduling
- Optimzing
- Resource scheduling
- Billing
- Reports
- Resource management
- Canned reports — not much room for improvements
- A “clunky" Windows-based system that needs a major overhaul
- Almost NO app support
- No real event management features — for an event management software — EMS should be renamed to RMS - Resource Management ...
- Positive- resource management
- Negative- canned reports are limited
- Positive- accurate billing
- Negative- not a sales analysis tool
