Reviews of Cognology
Can't speak highly enough about the product and the support received.
Comments: Cognology's onboarding solution has been a huge time saver for us.
Pros:
The functionality of the onboarding and the overall ease of use when administering. Have also been very impressed with their openness to suggestions for improvement. The staff has loved the fact that they now can manage their employment processes online. Especially useful for as we have over 19 sites to manage employees across.
Cons:
Not too much that I don't like and anything that we suggest is a problem is usually fixed. We were one of the first companies to use the onboarding and, of course, with any new product there were some minor issues to work through.
Enviro Cognology Review 2024
Comments: Fantastic, efficient and cost effective.
Pros:
I enjoyed the delivery of cognology from beginning to end. The implementation and training provided to support the steps was outstanding.
Cons:
Nothing comes to mind at the moment. I'm sure as we continue to use the system we will run into some cons.
Cognology Response
2 months ago
Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your experience with Cognology from beginning to end. Our team takes great pride in providing outstanding implementation and training support, so it’s great to hear that you found it beneficial.
We are in our first year of use and have at times found it challenging in respect of setting up.
Pros:
Provided a central system in respect of reviews and allows us to be online as opposed to a paper base review system that we previously had.
Cons:
Has not been as easy to navigate as we initially thought. In hindsight we would do things differently to get more out of the software.
Cognology for Onboarding is Key
Pros:
Set up was very easy, the functionality available allows us to customise our onboarding information. Customer support fantastic.
Cons:
As with any onboarding program, taking the time to get the information right can be time consuming.
Alternatives Considered: Online Induction, Onboarded and Employment Hero
Reasons for Switching to Cognology: Australian based, seemed good value for money, interface was appealing, add-on modules available.
Cognology On-boarding and Performance
Comments: It's been a truly encouraging and rewarding process working with the team from Cognology. Nothing is too much trouble, everything was done in a very timely manner, including during the shutdown of Victoria during the peak Covid-19 period. We now have a streamline recruiting/onboarding system, all variations of contracts are managed using Cognology and now we're about to launch all of the performance management using Cognology,: from development planning, probations and quarterly reviews to the end of year annual review.
Pros:
It's extremely user friendly and easy to navigate; integrates with our other systems and offers interactive opportunities for teams to communicate with each other and their manager. We can customize it as we grow to fit with our new requirements and it's uncluttered and a pretty system to look at.
Cons:
Any features we thought could be improved or were missing, were altered to our requirements prior to launching.
