## Reviews

### "Definitiv" — 4.0/5

> **Kate** | *23 March 2023* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use once correct parameters are set up.
> 
> **Cons**: Very complex to implement and training essential for system admin.
> 
> Good product but not enough initial support in implementation

-----

### "Early stage to provide feedback" — 4.0/5

> **Winnie** | *6 March 2023* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We are still under the implementation but It looks quite user friendly
> 
> **Cons**: We are still under the implementation so cannot comment yet

-----

### "Unhappy" — 3.0/5

> **John** | *3 August 2023* | Individual & Family Services | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Relatively cheap for what it does.  Was supposed to integrate Time and Attendance with Payroll and have added HR modules.
> 
> **Cons**: Unable to implement in the agreed timeframe.  Still unable to go-live after 9 months so ditched the implementation and went elsewhere.
> 
> Implementation person disappeared at a critical time and no response to emails.  No phone number to contact for backup support.

-----

### "So Many Options\!" — 4.0/5

> **Chelsea** | *26 July 2023* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's so customisable. I love the reporting centre, and the date driven nature means I can track all changes over time.
> 
> **Cons**: Would love the option for a separate approver for leave requests and timesheets. Our business has different approvers for timesheets to those who approve leave, so we've had to allocate all approvals to one person (timesheet approver), and continue with our manual leave request process.
> 
> So far it's been great.

### "Definitiv" — 5.0/5

> 
> **Pros**: The system is easy to use. It provides all payroll functions in one system.
> 
> **Cons**: I am still new to Definitiv, haven't find any cons
> 
> Great training\!
