## Reviews

### "The upgrade we need" — 5.0/5

> **Cat** | *3 July 2025* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Availability via the cloud, ease of use, integration with other system, reporting capabilities, ability to provide auditor and other users access to the system.
> 
> **Cons**: Lack of reporting capability for file export to vendors for benefit enrollment. The lack of capability of deleting an employee if a duplicate entry is made, even via support ticket.
> 
> It's been a great tool to use daily. The automation helps greatly with interdepartmental workflow as well as our day to day workflow.

### "Year End Assistance" — 5.0/5

> **Jenny** | *30 January 2026* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of reporting and Excellent customer support. \[sensitive content hidden\] were very knowledgeable and resolved my issue in very little time.  They are the BEST\!\!\!\!
>

### "Change isn't always so bad\!" — 3.0/5

> **Brenda** | *8 July 2025* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The accessibility of reports. There is no longer a reset at the end of the month to remember. Errors are somewhat easier to correct.
> 
> **Cons**: I do not like the Time Entry function that automatically fills the time in. I would rather still enter it manually.  Not being able to delete certain transactions. Year End Process can be challenging.
> 
> At first it was a nightmare. The process has been made much more tolerable with the guidance and help of Eunice and Mitchell\!

### "Best decision I made to convert to VIP" — 5.0/5

> **Shelly** | *13 August 2025* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It was easy to use and there are a lot of resources available to help you figure things out.  When I am stuck, there is always something available to help.  The grids are so easy to use even for managers that don't regularly use computers.
> 
> **Cons**: The only con I can say is having to run reports in a different system, not really a con just a nuisance.  I mostly use the grids so I don't have to go run reports but they are there if I need them.
> 
> Wonderful, could not be happier that I made the conversion.  The system has been everything I had hoped and more.  The team at SSI are so great to work with, not only very knowledgeable but also friendly and quick responders.

### "Good program" — 4.0/5

> **Jamie** | *4 June 2025* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like the amount of information you can see and attach to entries. I like the tracking of information that is entered.
> 
> **Cons**: Somethings I think have a lot of steps to them that can be confusing for users.  Also some updates I feel like are not beneficial to users.
> 
> Overall once you get familiar with it, its a great program to use.  I like being able to see a lot of information in the same area.
