What do you like best about Populi?

Populi is visually appealing to the eye. While it contains a large portion of information, they have designed it in a way that is not overwhelming but still allows students to access things they need to access. Populi is also web-based and allows easy access to it whenever and wherever. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Populi?

Populi has come a long way, but still has a ways to go. They've created a great product but it is definitely unfinished. The complicated algorithms exist, but the simplest of functions do not. When requesting the simpler fixes be added, you simply get ushered to their discussion board to await a rare solution to your (and other institution's) problems.

Recommendations to others considering Populi:

It's a great product, but know what you are getting into when it comes to user support. They are quick to respond and to help with your problems, but aren't always with you to the end in solving the problem. Your problem may simply be pushed to create a "feature request" that is not likely to get made a priority by their team for many months (and for us, years). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Populi solving and how is that benefiting you?

As an educational institution, we are responsible for lots of information and confidential information at that. Populi allows us a safe and secure home for these things that is cloud-based and thus can be accessed from anywhere at any time. This is helping our students to navigate the information they need in one place instead of multiple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
