"EPIC review"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Epic?

Easy to use layout with many options- I love how you can set up and view the OR schedule. It is color-coded based on patient status and has a ton of detailed information, such as where they are in the process (pre-op, in surgery, post-op, etc.). Easy to use and beneficial search function to look for keywords within the chart. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Epic?

Sometimes the number of options and tabs and customization can be challenging to sort through. It is best to have an EPIC trainer go through and set it up for your needs before using it. It takes a while to get used to and then is very quick to navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best EMR I've worked with"
5/5
What do you like best about Epic?

Care everywhere, quick chart completion, interface is very customizable. There is more than one way to do everything which at times is a downside but often an advantage. Many parts are customizable and you can show/hide many different options. I like that you can take away what you don't use. Epic will generate info you likely won't need however is usefull when you acutally need it. You are able to pull up results review without having to enter the patient chart, but expanding this to be able to enter more information on the side screen would improve the ability to complete an entire chart without having to go through the loading time of opening a chart and also allow you to keep an eye on the list or tracker without having to click back into it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Epic?

Slow to load charts and leave charts, especially since you can only have a certain number of charts open at a time. Can have lots of clicks to perform simple tasks which can be quite annoying. There is also a lot of variation between how different users interact with Epic which makes it hard to identify where something should be on someone else's screen. At times there is too much information and despite having a large screen at my workspace it seems like I need a bigger one due to having to resize windows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Efficient and User Friendly"
5/5
What do you like best about Epic?

I enjoy the ease of use with Epic as opposed to the Soarian system our hospital used to utilize. It’s much more user friendly, the formatting isn’t intimidating and anyone with a basic knowledge of computer software can manage to use the system effectively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Epic?

I can honestly say there is nothing about this program that I can think of that I dislike. It’s made a huge difference in how we treat our patients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Too many clicks to achieve one action"
3/5
What do you like best about Epic?

So much space for information storage. It can save patient information to a near unlimited amount (demographic, imaging, labs, past encounters, etc.). It also has a lot of customizability for those who use Epic regularly. For example, they can save shortcuts or move tabs to their liking or practicality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Epic?

It takes many clicks to achieve just a single action. Sometimes it takes a long time to load or crashes entirely. When this occurs, it certainly does not lend itself to high quality, efficient patient care. It also needs a simpler interface, or at least the option for one. There is a steep learning curve for this program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A healthcare platform for everyone"
5/5
What do you like best about Epic?

Every user can customize which pages and tools are present on their toolbar. This allows for much greater ease of use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Epic?

Certain actions require a lot more clicking than other healthcare platforms I've used. This does add a measure of security because it's a lot harder to do something accidentally but it can also slow you down significantly when you're busy.

Also, the blood bank department had to make use of a secondary software because Epic was not equipped to handle all of their needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very user friendly interface."
4.5/5
What do you like best about Epic?

Very easy to look up patient charts without any difficulty compared to other health softwares. I like how each patient has clear specific subsections like follow-up and medications so that you cannot miss those. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Epic?

I am not sure if this is the cause of Epic or the wifi connection but clicking a particular section on the patient has a slight delay. Sometimes it would stop responding and inevitably crash. It also prevents you from opening multiple patient charts at the same time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes you would like to review information associated with particular profiles and you can't unless you have the right access to the historical data. Slight frustration, but not serious. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very beneficial to providing patient care"
5/5
What do you like best about Epic?

I appreciate the fact that I can look up patient information from previous visits in addition to looking up future ideas about how we will care for the patient. In addition, I can do all my charting in one place with the quick tabs. I can also customize how I want my screen to pop up every day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Epic?

I can't delete certain features that I will never use. This takes up space. But, at least I know these features are always there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
