> **Corinne** | *January 28, 2025* | Facilities Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10

> 
> **Cons**: Pricing seems to continue going up.  Updates to policies, should be an auto update instead of having to click into each one and download
> 
> Overall, their HR Directors are excellent and informative.  They help answer any questions you may have and offer sound advice.  Their customer service is also available to answer any account related questions.

> **Shannon** | *November 19, 2024* | Accounting Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I highly recommend it as a partner at an accounting firm in BC. This is our third year with Ciatation, and I couldn't be happier.&#10;&#10;Templates, forms, and handbooks were the reason I joined, not realizing their Live HR advice would give me peace of mind and confidence. Thank you, Sharon, Simon, Kim, Terri and Ed. I have spoken with all of them, and they have guided us in our HR needs.
> 
> **Cons**: The only thing was the name HR Downloads, I love the name Citation better :)

> 
> **Pros**: I find the digital platform to be user friendly and has a large variety of helpful HR tools. The education courses are fantastic and so simple to assign and monitor progress.

Being a company that loves data, this has been really important to us.
> 
> **Cons**: Within the digital platform, there's a design issue with a menu popping out over the search bar that can be irritating, but that is minor compared to the numerous perks and successes with the program.
> 
> My experience has been very positive and seamless working with the program. It's easy, user friendly and provides so much HR content and support for our business.
