## PowerOn Reviews
  ### 1. Simple logic gets the job done.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Accounting | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 13, 2024

**What do you like best about PowerOn?**

Simple to understand plus you have a documentation to help from the company.

**What do you dislike about PowerOn?**

You can't Google to help with an issue you are experiencing.

**What problems is PowerOn solving and how is that benefiting you?**

You can access and query the database using their proprietary query language. It also allows for users to create HTML screens and forms using the Symform or Symform PDF technology. There is also a framework for controlling a signature pad from the Topaz Signature pad company for modifications and updates to the screen and capturing users signature.

  ### 2. PowerOn for Symitar

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dustin G. | Principal Solutions Consultant, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 18, 2021

**What do you like best about PowerOn?**

PowerOn allows you to change almost anything inside of Symitar.  That's a pretty sweet aspect of its technology.  You can access and query the database using their proprietary query language.  It also allows for users to create HTML screens and forms using the Symform or Symform PDF technology.  There is also a framework for controlling a signature pad from the Topaz Signature pad company for modifications and updates to the screen and capturing users signature.

**What do you dislike about PowerOn?**

It's proprietary to the Symitar system so you have to learn a tool that is vendor locked.  This isn't necessarily bad but locks you into an ecosystem.  Learning it is actually pretty simple until you get to demand PowerOns that require a comprehensive understanding of HTML, HTML forms, and whatever front-end UI tooling you need to build your screens.

**Recommendations to others considering PowerOn:**

PowerOn is pretty much a requirement for you to use Symitar.  So learn it to its maximum extent and you can skip out on a ton of work around and difficult double entries.  It may also be a good idea for you to go and hire some younger high school or junior college talent to train up on PowerOn as it allows for quite a bit of automation and gives younger developers a great path into your financial institution.

Lastly, there are many aspects to PowerOn that can do really innovative things, but they require you to learn and master the Demand PowerOns (Demand Specfiles) to really get the best bang for your buck.

**What problems is PowerOn solving and how is that benefiting you?**

You can make any number of screens or forms that are needed to make Symitar really work well for the way your credit union runs.  It allows for almost anything to be automated inside a Credit Union on the Symitar system.

**What do you dislike about PowerOn?**

Nondescript path forward at the conclusion of the professional development and lack of a job description during the working hours.

**What problems is PowerOn solving and how is that benefiting you?**

PowerOn helped me to resolve the process for getting back to work after a career pause.

  ### 4. Simple logic gets the job done
