"Lots of data, not entirely user-friendly"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Accruent EMS?

Once you understand how EMS works (its language, etc), the system is extremely logical and organized. We can easily process room changes, and we can incorporate our campus partners into the system with minimal learning curve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Accruent EMS?

The character limit has been posing massive challenges--we are a very diverse, multi-cultural university, and we have instructors with long names that cannot be listed in the system without causing EMS to crash. The result is that students register for a class without full knowledge of who will be teaching, and these instructors cannot utilize their experience to get future teaching jobs as our evaluations are connected to Banner/EMS. It ends up being very discriminatory towards instructors from cultures that have long names. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
