## Reviews

### "Trail" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *1 December 2020* | Civic & Social Organization | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Relatively easy to setup. Can be hosted as SaaS.  Supports importing from Excel.  Have an API for further integration.
> 
> **Cons**: Could have had SSO as a standard solution within the base package

-----

### "Happy customer since 2015" — 4.0/5

> **Juha** | *24 November 2020* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: System has brought us control over our equipment management we know exactly where anything is at any given moment. Also the ease of use since it is web based you can access it easily from anywhere and the system is very flexible and customizable to suit our needs. And of course the system is Finnish which is a big plus for us.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes we get bugs for example the system returns devices by it self for example if an device has been read out the system returns it immediately after reading it out. And since we have multiple categories that are shared to different departments that causes everyone to see all of reservations and would not be necessary, it is not a big issue and we are sure it could be resolved.
> 
> Really nicely developed system to suit our needs. We don't use all of the functions but this gives us room to improve our own work methods to increase for example the service info and interval of our equipment.

> **Jonathan** | *4 December 2020* | Performing Arts | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The software have so many functionalitys.
>

> 
> That has helped us to get a more overlock of ours things in the warehouse.

### "Easy AV equipment and production management" — 4.0/5

> **Marko** | *26 November 2020* | Music | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use, new users learn to use Trail very fast. Customer support answers quickly solving most of the cases very fast. Trail Systems is always open to new things like "AV equipment loan equipment locker" that we built together a couple of years ago.
> 
> **Cons**: Implementing custom features is time consuming and expensive. Customers don't always get information about new features delivered for all Trail users for free.
> 
> Sibelius Academy has used Trail since 2011. It has evolved quite a bit during that time and we're very happy with the product and support we're receiving.

### "Does what it does well" — 5.0/5

> **Tiny** | *25 November 2020* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Trail is easy to implement and easy to use. As it is browser/cloud based it is easy to work with on all platforms and therefore the uptake by our employees was good. &#10;The trail team in the 3 department I deal with are all good at keeping their answers concise and referred to others if appropriate but the answers are always swift in coming. &#10;Having Trail relationship manager for our company means are questions are answered or items followed up in context to other discussions.
> 
> **Cons**: Reporting and print out formatting is the one down side of this software. This is handled well by the team writing custom reports so is not a big drawback and the Trail team are open to discussions about why the standard reporting is not applicable.
> 
> I  would recommend Trail to any company that wants asset management and maintenance software first and some sales / rental pricing features second. Trail is an asset management platform and as such does this better than the quoting part. Would recommend it over other rental software
