## Reviews

### "AL Advantage" — 5.0/5

> **Reynaldo** | *2 July 2019* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use and learning. It makes it very easy to determine which level of care my resident needs.
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing really. Everything is on point and easy.
> 
> It is easy to use.

### "ALA performance" — 4.0/5

> **VIVIAN** | *11 October 2019* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: ease and that state licensing approves it.  customer service is great.
> 
> **Cons**: the medication section .  it is cumbersome and is not friendly for clinicians to whom we present request for reconciliation or review.  the software captures and saves all meds that are entered into the system and does not have a feature to archive so it is not possible to generate a clean current list of active meds.  it also does not archive old orders.  we have a lot of order changes.   there should be a way to segregate so that a current list of accurate meds is provided.&#10;&#10;also, the assessment tool is good but should also be a stand alone .  the full service plan is not often needed but the basic assessment is.  currently , the assessment  function does not capture any notes or instructions.  additionally, not all facilities use a point system.  this is confusing to customers.&#10;&#10;the face sheet does not always put the alternate resp party contacts in the right order.  it should be specific so we can choose what shows up on face sheet.&#10;&#10;needs to add a specific section for annual vaccines and calendar of office visits- which dr is seen, date, etc.

### "How it works for me\!" — 4.0/5

> **Kathy** | *18 June 2019* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Reasonably priced, great support, easy to access and printed forms are professional.
> 
> **Cons**: When I tab to another section, I have to click twice and sometimes I am unaware that it is not imputing my information until I have typed for several seconds.
> 
> I am very pleased with the overall aspects of this program especially since my company is a new concept and there are no other programs that will adapt readily to what we need.

### "AL Advantage pros vs. cons" — 5.0/5

> **Jan** | *25 June 2019* | Facilities Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Fairly easy to use.  I use the program every day I am at work.  I appreciate the "drop-down" selections on the Needs and Service Care Plan feature.
> 
> **Cons**: Cannot save a CA death report.  &#10;When you add one item to the Needs and Service Care Plan, the entire care plan has to be reprinted.  &#10;Confusion when listing the responsible party vs. the alternate contact for the face sheet.  Responsible party is not always the person to call in an emergency....especially if they do not live locally.  &#10;Initially, a little more "hands on" training would have been nice and also a couple of follow-up visits from the Rep would have been helpful.  I know we are not utilizing the full features of this program due to our heavy case load of 171 residents.

### "Excellent internet based software, updates and intuitive UI a little behind" — 4.0/5

> **Garrett** | *2 August 2018* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love that it's built specifically for the industry. Face-sheets and MARs are equipped with the exact information needed. Customer support is on top of things, very quick to resolve issues and respond.
> 
> **Cons**: The UI is a little behind for online software. Seems like the web page could fill up the screen better, there are wide columns on either side. It can be really slow to respond or load and there seem to be a lot of steps involved sometimes, for example just to print the MARs. An app based software would also be great to be used on tablets\! It would be nice to have a drop down menu of medications, doses and general directions, it would make entering MARs much faster. Also an electronic MAR would be awesome as well\! Where each med-tech had a login and could digitally sign for meds.
> 
> We've been with the company from the beginning and have seen positive, but slow, progress. We use it mainly for MARs and Facesheets. It's too clunky and not user friendly enough at this point to use on tablets. As stated above the customer service is awesome\!
