Good system - more suited to Offices than Hospitals

3.0 2 years ago

Comments: Easy to use, just have to put in more effort on our part to make it work for us.

Pros:

Visually ELMO is easy to navigate and logical to use. Suits us for performance reviews and new starters.

Cons:

Reporting. We would like to be able to get learning hours in a report that is "good looking" not having to download a csv file only to then have to filter, sort and "make pretty" for use. This is important to us because learning hour are required for Nurses to keep their qualifications and certifications. Also, most of the help received by ELMO System Experts could do with some improvement. They don't seem to understand the needs of the client/customer when working with them to come up with solutions.

We really appreciate the time you've taken to write a review. ELMO's Dashboards feature, under Analytics, can help you create user-friendly charts that can be easily exported. Your system administrator can reach out to your Account Manager to work out solutions specific to this feature. Kind regards, ELMO team

Great everyday use

4.0 4 months ago

Comments: I have thoroughly enjoyed using this system.

Pros:

The ease to pick-up and learn this platform, back end. I have used other products that have been far more complicated.

Cons:

There are limitations, as with all systems. The 2 way integration with ELMO pay is a particular pain point resulting in duplication of work effort and not being able to create reports in Analytics combining HR Core and Payroll

Comments: The overall experience has been great so far.Suits to the organisational needs.Looking forward to more features.

Pros:

It suits the business requirement.Has some great features.The concept of updating the system from time to time is excellent, which means the employer doesn't have to look for other options and upgrade the system as per the latest software.

Cons:

Yes, like downloading the course material.Currently, there is no option to download the course handbook, and after assigning the course to staff, the employee raised such a request.
