A little helper with big results
Pros:
We are able to create personalized reports to our needs. The program helps to create standard reports for customers as well internal reports for our service engineers. The possibility to write reports via desktop PC, laptop, phone or tablet is much appreciated and gives us plenty of alternative ways to create the information for our customers and colleagues quick and clean. We've been able to reduce the time for report creation between 50% - 70%.
Cons:
In our case we double check reports before sending them out to customers. If we see mistakes there is no good process in place how to inform the creator of the report and to follow-up the corrections. Today we have created a little work around.
Alternatives Considered:
Easy to use and intuitive
Comments: Excelente, due the pricing + product + support. Im more than happy!
Pros:
Easy to use, mobile friendly, reports... Capptions its the one stop shop for compliance
Cons:
The customization right now doesnt give you that much of flexibility (forms)
For our application, capptions is quite easy to use.
Comments: It helps us monitor trees in a more efficient way.
Pros:
Except for connecting our QR-scanner to a phone, the part of our monitoring process for which Capptions is used is easy and intuitive. Also, support service is fast and adequate.
Cons:
It is slightly outrageous to me that Capptions charges per monitoring. Unless there is manual labor involved in each monitoring we do, this does not make any sense. Also, the amount charged per monitoring limits scalability of the whole process.

Awesome Document Management Software
Comments: Capptions is best cloud-based document management platform that helps all the organizations and businesses to manage their document processes. We are using this software for Document Management and It works Smoothly for us.
Pros:
It's offers wide range of features like Document Management, Risk Management, Quality Control and Real Time Reporting to improve your work quality. The Software is very easy to use and affordable for all.
Cons:
I didn't face any issue with the software. It will be great if they improve their features that helps more than now.
Managing safety processes with Capptions
Comments: Generally, I find Capptions a very easy-to-use tool and I enjoy its features both as a user and as administrator. Furthermore, I have a very positive experience with the Capptions Support Team who are always ready to listen to the needs of the Client, discuss and create solutions.
Pros:
Capptions is a great tool and platform to monitor, manage and work on safety related processes. It is very handy that we can have safety reports, incidents, inspections, audits, and other forms digitalized. On the one hand, we are saving on a lot of paperwork (sustainability). On the other hand, we have a central location where all forms and actions are organized and easily accessible. The third thing I enjoy most about Capptions is the phone app. When you have logged in and you are somewhere without internet connections, you can complete and save forms offline, and submit them when internet is available again.
Cons:
The one thing that can use improvement is when a form (case file) is/can be completed by 2 persons at the same time. In that case either person receives a notification that a change was made in their form but the change cannot be directly spotted unless the person reads through the complete form.

Ampelmann experience
Comments: Very good experience, easy to implement, Capptions people are proactive and provide prompt assistance to remedy any problems as they arise
Pros:
Easy to use, problems are fixed easily, cost effective, easy to create and publish forms, training requirements are minimal for administrators as well as users, whole process of entering a Capption report through to investigation and closure is smooth, easily adaptable to work with other systems for reporting
Cons:
some managers would like have easier overview of their Capptions - need an extra layer of supervision from the present one layer. Reminders for when Capptions or Case files are overdue (plus an escalation process) is not available at this stage.

Capptions helps us build and maintain a single source of truth for our compliance management system

Thank you for your kind words Geertje. Working with AFS is a pleasure. We are indeed working on reminders for actions. As soon as it's ready, you'll be the first to know!
Waste Sampling at your fingertips, intuitive and easy to use !
Comments: The Capptions platform can be rolled out on a use case by use case basis, this makes it easy to calculate ROI's and demonstrate to senior management the added value. We consider this for now a gem in our applications portfolio.
Pros:
The structured way we can capture data in the operational environment and seamless integration in the management dashboard. The easyness by which completely different use cases can be implemented using the same platform makes the adoption process smooth.
Cons:
I would like to see the roll out for the complete HSEQ life cycle to take place. The size of this project has sofar limited the organization to do so sofar however the software is ready to go.

Replace paper registrations
Comments:
We have almost totally digitalized all paper registrations on the HSEQ department.
Saves time, real-time al information available and more inside in trends and root cause of findings.
Pros:
Possibility to adjust to your own preference Template building for all registrations can be done by costumer. Real time inside in observation, trends and status of actions to be taken.
Cons:
internal Notifications to users on status casefiles can be improved.
My experience is very good, AFS mainly use the action part of the program
Comments: the government was very satisfied with the guarantee of following up of actions
Pros:
Especially the personal that help you when you have any questions, they respond is very quickly and they take the time to help you out. The software is very easy to work with for the administrator and user. The government was during an inspection very pleased about the way that we can garanty the following up of actions from audits, inspections, safety walks, etc. The people of Capptions are listen at your questions about what your company needs to make it work for them
Cons:
I miss a manual to create templates, especially because you don't do this every day. No reminder mail will be sent to the owner of the action when the due date is exceeded.

Hi Geertje, Thank you for your review! The team is thrilled to hear such good feedback. We're also working on new support articles, and I appreciate your feedback regarding the need for a manual. We will definitely take this into account! I will also look into the reminders, perhaps this is something that we can add. Kind regards, Anje de Jager

David has shown to be a true @safetychanger in his drive and commitment to deliver world class safety to both his colleagues at the sharp end and the HQ management team. Working with David is a great pleasure and rewarding in achieving impressive results in quantity and quality of safety information captured, analysed and improved upon.
Use of Safety Changer App
Comments: The App is very friendly, easy to use. It creates a logical approach to completing the inspection. Following the App during the inspection process facilitates a great coaching conversation with the driver. Automatic report upload is a useful feature. I also like the feature that allows attaching any supporting documents, pictures or videos as evidence. Overall it's a huge improvement on paper checklists for our organisation.

It is great to have Kevin as a client. As a person he is driven to excellence and zero harm. As a client, he is driven to leverage the Safety Changer to the maximum, and while doing discovering new use cases everytime!
Prima software toepassing voor meldsysteem
Comments: Eevaring is goed. We werken sinds januari 2016 met het programma en Capptions zorgde in deze periode voor goede ondersteuning en doorontwikkeling van het product.
Pros:
Het systeem is gebruiksvriendelijk en geeft een goed overzicht van meldingen. Trendanalyse zijn goed uitvoerbaar door toedoen van de custom made dossier opbouw. Het Capptions team denk mee en is erg prettig in contact.
Cons:
Wanneer er minpunten zijn kunnen deze in goed overleg worden weggenomen. Lastig is wel de automatische aanmaak van observaties bij escaleren uit een inspectie formulier. Echter is dit niet problematisch omdat in ons geval trends uit de dossiers gehaald worden, niet uit de observaties.
