Chronical has been a great enhancement

5.0 8 months ago

Comments: Overall our experience has been very positive. The support staff is extremely responsive, and helpful when we need to make changes or additions to plots.
It took a lot of work on our part to upload all the old paper documents, but well worth the effort.

Pros:

The ability to map and locate plots, and to store key records. Also the fact that photos and stories can be added to interments for public view.

Cons:

Graphics are a little week on the public page.

Promoting Community Engagement

5.0 last month New

Comments: The communication with the team at Chronicle is remarkable. Customer service is excellent.

Pros:

Specifically designed for cemetery management, it has the ability to continually evolve according to industry needs, ideas and expectations. I really like that it is very comprehensive and able to accommodate all documentation and management requirements. Importantly, Chronicle promotes community engagement, allowing record searches, genealogy studies and location of interment sites. Records are no longer locked away with access only available to cemetery staff.

Cons:

I would like it to be a bit faster. Sometimes the internet seems slow making it difficult to move from page to page.

Alternatives Considered: Plotbox

Reasons for Choosing Chronicle: To have an industry specific product. Many more features.

Switched From: StreamAlive

Reasons for Switching to Chronicle: Features, price and customer service were the main reason we chose Chronicle.

Chronicle setup progressing well

4.0 7 months ago

Comments: We are still in the setup phase so our experience with Chronicle is limited but we are happy with the progress and see the product being able to make our cemetery greatly more efficient.

Pros:

The Chronicle team is willing to work with our cemetery to structure the data and map to our needs. They have delivered on everything they promised.

Cons:

They are rolling out updates on the fly so it isn't quite mature yet, but the product keeps getting better.

Alternatives Considered: Plotbox and CemSites

Reasons for Switching to Chronicle: Better value for the cost. They all would likely do a good job, but there appears to be better value with Chronicle.
