Cumbersome and not straight forward data management **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Mining & Metals | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 29, 2022 **What do you like best about PATTSY WAVE?** I have all my data in one place and I can run reports on IP status. I can have visual reports and can tie them to Acclaim IP for immediate IP landscape search. But that's not a straightforward, one-click solution. **What do you dislike about PATTSY WAVE?** It is not easy to use. Requires a lot of training and remembering what entry needs to be followed by another in order to save the data. I do not enjoy using it. **What problems is PATTSY WAVE solving and how is that benefiting you?** I use Pattsywave for IP management purposes, but I still need to refer to my internet sheets to have an overall view. It serves the purposed of the IP database. **Official Response from Gina Schroeder:** > Thank you for adding your review. We are sorry to hear that you find the software is not easy to use, we pride ourselves in offering intuitive and efficient products. When you are entering preexisting applications, it’s helpful to start with a first file, priority application to take advantage of the automation that takes place when you build out patent families. We want to help improve your experience with the software. You have access to unlimited support, give us a call or email support or myself. We are glad to hear you are taking advantage of AcclaimIP and the integration in PATTSY WAVE. The “Find Similar” feature should be very helpful with regards to IP landscape searches. We are also happy to provide assistance with these features when you are ready. ## PATTSY WAVE Discussions - [What is PATTSY WAVE used for?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/what-is-pattsy-wave-used-for) - [Can I get a teaching account or demo of the application to be able to show my students the application and function?
