Feedback from our Vizual Upgrade Workshops

Thanks to all those who recently attended one of our workshops looking at the Vizual Personnel Manager / Director upgrade to People Inc. HR.

The feedback was extremely positive from everyone. Many didn’t realise how straight forward and quick the upgrade took and that it provided far more time consuming functionality than users are currently used to yet is still simple to use.

Based on the feedback on the day, one of the stand out topics was Employee Self Service. Most users thought that giving employees and managers the ability to book and authorise holidays from their PC, Tablet or Smart Phone would provide huge time saving benefits. We will try and spend more time on this topic in future sessions.

We’ll be reviewing all of the feedback forms from attendees in more detail shortly and hope to add any other suggestions to the next series of workshops such as Employee Self Service.

Look out for the next series of Workshops later this year.

A few comments from our attendees…

“The guys at agathonhr really know their stuff. Their knowledge of the Vizual Product range is incredible and their experience of upgrading Vizual users to People Inc. was very comforting”. [Sue, April Workshop]

“People Inc. looks, on the surface very similar to our Vizual Personnel Manager Software that we have been using since 1998 but does so much more. For example, the Organisation Chart tool will be a huge time saving bonus for us”. Anna, July Workshop

“I’m so happy that I will no longer need to split any absence records that cross over into a different month. We spend ages duplicating effort with this in Vizual Personnel Manager only then to not be able to calculate Bradford Factor because it cant reconcile each occurrence properly. Not only will I not have to split absence in People Inc., it already has a Bradford Factor report built in saving the need to manually calculate it.” [Robin, February Workshop]

“The built in screen design is a big benefit for use. We work in the Construction industry and need to record some very specific information such as PPE which many of the other systems we have looked at cannot do in the way we need”. [Matt, February Workshop]

“I can’t believe how quick the upgrade takes. To be up and running within a couple of days and keeping all of our data is a huge incentive. Can’t wait to book this in.” [Julie, March Workshop]

“Having Employee Self Service is going to save us hours. Getting rid of paper holiday forms has been something we’ve been wanting to do for a while but haven’t been able to find a system that was as easy to use as our existing Vizual Personnel Software.” [Louise, January Workshop]
