What do you like best about Follett Destiny Resource Manager?

Probably the best thing is that it integrates so seamlessly with our library software. Since most of the resources are handled and checked out through the library it unifies the checking out, the tracking, and the inventory of those items to a single system.

What do you dislike about Follett Destiny Resource Manager?

Probably the worst part is the resource import process. What could be a system with a CSV template instead uses a much more complicated XML conversion process and tool. Takes what could use a process familiar to most people and makes it a multistep complex process involving multiple files that most people aren't familiar with. Expecially when they only do this once or twice a year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Follett Destiny Resource Manager solving and how is that benefiting you?

Streamlined checkout, accounting, and processing of resources like Chromebooks can be a time consuming process with a robust and organized system in place. Resource Manager helps us process devices to our students in an organized way. It also allows us to reliably track what students have what items as well as account for lost items that might be turned in to teachers, Offices, or the Library. Additionally, the ability to reliably look at a students device history is incredibly benificial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
