Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Access
I utilize Microsoft Access for a few different functions within our agency, I use it to track reports and analyses that are required to be completed. By using Access I can quickly see how many of our required documents are past due and also how many of them are coming close to being due. I generate reports to provide my supervisor that display who is responsible for what mandated reports. Access also allows me to print out a document that is in a letter format advising the individual of which reports/analyses are their responsibility and then require them to sign this and return it signed along with the required document. It helps track who is responsible for what and when to put it simply.
- Personalize - Access has a huge variety of functions that can meet most any one person or companies needs by not only allowing the user to have it display in the manner the user wants (color, size, font) but also can do anything from simply track tasks or provide a format for memorandums
- Forgiving- as someone who was new to using Access I was super glad to find out the program is forgiving and easy to correct errors made by the user
- Not very user friendly - all of the functions that make Access so multi functional I had to learn about by looking for tutorials or looking up what some of the terminology meant
- Keeps not just me organized but those involved in the project I oversee
- Is an efficient way to send out reminders and hold those accountable
- none
I have never used anything that is comparable to Access or any database program.
