What do you like best about Atriuum ILS?

The Atriuum Integrated Library System has been a cost-effective, easy-to-use, and reliable product for our library since we switched to it in 2015. It has proven to be a great tool for a library of our size. There are more expensive ILS options out there that may have more or enhanced features, however, we find that Atriuum works extremely well for a library of our size serving a community of approximately 14,000 people. The hosting and maintenance have been easy and consistent. Technical support and sales are very responsive to questions and issues. They are easy to connect with via phone or email. Atriuum covers all the features that we need to see for a library of our size and there are optional modules/services you can subscribe to that will enhance your services or increase options if they are of use to your library. Our library is open 7 days a week so Atriuum is in frequent use every day for a variety of tasks from adding new materials, managing materials, checking items in and out, and helping patrons discover what we have in our collections. The recent up to a new version of the OPAC called Gallery completely updated the somewhat dated design and layout and looks excellent. Atriuum is happy to help with questions on how to use or implement features, how to run reports or create custom reports, and how to configure and setup items to work best with your workflow. For areas where we have suggestions or would like to see new features they take enchancement requests and prioritize them based on demand. There are regular updates supported by release notes to highlight new and updated features and fixes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Atriuum ILS?

Most of my concerns about Atriuum would be small feature changes, convenience items, or updates to some features such as the self-checkout module. Most of these items would be things that would make Atriuum work a little better with our library's workflow. As more libraries transition to being fine free, we do feel that some of the management of overdue and lost items could do with updating. We would like for there to be a simpler way for the system to be able to automatically block accounts that have items that were more than a specific number of days overdue. Under the old system with fines it was easy to set fine amount, fine limits and account maximums. As we've done away with the fine portion of the billing process some more/easier options here would be nice. However, Atriuum has been happy to provide some suggestions of ways to make it work for our workflow as best we can, and take enhancement requests for consideration in future updates.

What do you like best about Atriuum ILS?

Our library system is new to Atriuum. We went live on 12/1/23. The staff really appreciated the in person training. This training help with transitioning from one ILS to another. Atriuum is easy to use and, as director, I like that the staff have found the transition relatively painless. Our previous system was not the easiest to move over. There were no delays and the system was up and running on time. The public have had nothing but positive comments about the online catalog. Cataloging has also been an easy transition. Parents and staff like the kids online catalog.

Our library system is part of a consortia, Atriuum has been able to handle our consortia needs easily. There has been some adjustment to the unified catalog that was unexpected but not really an issue. Customer support has been great to work with. They have gotten back to most of our requests within a 24-hour period. Support keeps us informed of the status of the request if it is something that will take time to get an answer.

As new users of Atriuum, I have been extremely pleased from the initial contact through implementation, training and their ongoing support. Everyone we have talked to has been pleasant and knowledgeable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Atriuum ILS?

So far there are very few 'dislikes'. Anything that has come up as a problem, when presented to tech support, we have been satisfied with the answer/solution. Ask us in a year.

The only problem that our staff have pointed out is some of the school library functions are annoying for us as a public library. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Atriuum ILS?

Atriuum ILS has been extremely easy to navigate as a new user. Would strongly recommend to any school or public library system in need of a management program. We use this daily for our entire county and it is easily connected to Booktracks for our textbook management as well. Customer service is always a phone call away if needed as well.

What do you like best about Atriuum ILS?

Atriuum was implemented in our library about seven years ago. The Book System staff was so helpful and made the transistion so easy for all of our staff. Atriuum is so user friendly, both to staff and patrons. During COVID, patrons were able to reserve books online and we were able to put the books to have no contact pick up for patrons. It was amazing, we were able to provide materials to patrons in a safe way. I have loved Atriuum since we started using it, but COVID showed us how truly valuable having this system in place was.
