## Reviews

### "Easy Student Information System" — 5.0/5

> **Paullina** | *2 February 2017* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> EMPOWER is a user-friendly student information system that our school has used for over ten years\! All of our departments, students and staff are able to use the same system and has made communication, tracking and reporting exceptionally efficient for our school. We use this database to do a wide variety of tasks from handling applications for incoming students, tracking students through the Admissions process, enrolling students into classes, storing confidential student records and maintaining them, a place to process/maintain billing/tuition payments, financial aid tracking, annual reporting and much more. We also use the web portal where students can view their schedules and pay tuition online, and we even use this as a place for our instructors to enter attendance and grades. Needless to say, it's organized our school a tremendous amount. Not only is it an easy software to use but all of the support staff are extremely helpful, and always go above and beyond as far as database support and training.  I highly recommend EMPOWER\!

### "Empower provides payroll and HR software that helps keep us organized, although the reporting has room to be better" — 4.0/5

> **Conrad** | *9 November 2017* | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The software helps our company keep much HR and payroll data accessible and accurate in the many needs we have in remaining compliant and keeping track of employees.
> 
> **Cons**: My 2 biggest complaints related to reporting capabilities and no built in time and labor (\&amp; accruals for time off) software.  There are huge, almost endless reporting capabilities, but you have to master another type of software in the system in order to build many reports we need.  For time, labor \&amp; time off accruals, it is "klunky" to have to login to another software that we use that interfaces with Empower.
> 
> When we combine these couple issues with less than stellar customer service with our payroll provider that supports us in the use of this software, I would not recommend it--and we will be looking to replace it in the coming year probably.

### "Great for payroll; does a great job with the basics." — 3.0/5

> **Laura** | *10 December 2017*
> 
> **Pros**: Reliable, fast payroll process. Displays the payroll register before you post for easy double-checking. The payroll process is clear and straightforward.
> 
> **Cons**: The HRIS functions are limited beyond the basics. Very little customization available. HRIS employee-side and applicant tracking system are not browser neutral which is oftentimes problematic. They're converting to a new platform and because of that, R\&amp;D resources aren't committed like they used to be to this software product.

-----

### "Fantastic product for the cost" — 4.0/5

> **Jon** | *11 February 2017* | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use.  User definable codes.
> 
> The customer service is out of this world.  The modules are code driven and user definable.  New features and functions are continually added to improve the product.  The profiles and extracts makes retrieving data even easier.

-----

### "Empower Review" — 5.0/5

> **Cassandra** | *27 January 2017* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Software has a clean look and many options for customization.
> 
> **Cons**: The admissions piece isn't as flashy as other things on market because Empower is more focused on functionality instead.
> 
> Imagetek has been a partner of Empower's for over 10 years and I've had the pleasure of working with them for the past  2.5 years. They are amazing to work with and care deeply about their clients.
