-- at a performing arts with 201-500 employees
The streamlined process of getting policies out to all staff in a quick efficient manner has been most valuable.
Currently we have monthly competencies that the 2 Staff Development Departments would initiate by a manual paper process and have to track staff down for all 3 shifts. Since we have started placing these items on Policytech, we have had a much better compliance rate as the staff are able to do it and it automatically records responses and results. Staff either read a document or view a powerpoint and then have a survey to answer, they have to receive a passing grade and if they pass they then receive the competency for that specific training. What we would like to add would be to be able to have Templates for certificates as we have different types of programs that have specific required documentation on the certificates, currently the certificates are one size fits all and that doesn’t work for us. So we are running a weekly report and manually send staff certificates. Another area is tracking Writer, Reviewer, and Approver statuses.

Architect at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
We've improved our data management & human resource skills. Needs to work more on its presentation layer for users.
Follow the suggested implementation approach and it will be a smooth sailing. The core issue in any business analytics and business intelligence solutions is always data quality, deployment architecture and skilled human resource. Ensure that you have deliberated on these in detail and there will be no issues or hiccups during implementation

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Worth every penny. Not a critical business process worth skimping on; its impact when fully introduced and utilized is incomparable."
"It has made all the policies available in one accessible location for people to use them."
"This solution gives an opportunity for anonymous hotline complaints."
"PolicyTech has probably been the most reliable solution we have and it's been the most stable solution over the last eight years, compared to any other information technology solution we've had."
"The company is always timely, they always have good suggestions, and they always have quick fixes for me."
"Technical support is great."
"Allowing the input of investigation cases, the ability to track information and to compile data, it allows us to prepare detailed reports for different levels of the organization in the form of Excel spreadsheets, graphics, percentages of descriptive reports daily, monthly, yearly and number of cases per those periods."
"Before choosing, there were four different options that I was looking at, and going through all the tutorials and talking with the salespeople really sold me on NAVEX Global because I thought they were the gold standard for that type of policy format."
"We have been able to improve our data management, human resource skills and productivity, management reporting, and subsequently data mining for other business operations."
 

Cons

"We had some problems in middle of July, when we stopped getting our email notifications."
"The reporting functions are terrible."
"Truthfully, the hardest part is that there are some little setup things that need to be done before people can actually use PolicyTech."
"What we would like to add would be to be able to have templates for certificates as we have different types of programs that have specific required documentation on the certificates, currently the certificates are one size fits all and that doesn’t work for us."
"Uploading PDFs is more time consuming and you have to go in and out of multiple screens/functions."
"Recent product update led to confusion."
"We get a huge amount of complaints from users about the email system. They get lots and lots of emails, and they don’t necessarily have a good way to manage them."
"The one thing that I noticed was, it times out sometimes."
"Customer Service: That is the only area where SAS needs to look into. It was just satisfactory."
