Apollo Automation System helps us to keep our library running smoothly on a daily basis. All of the tasks we perform are made easier and more efficient, from overdue notices, daily reports, patron financial records, cataloging books--and so much more--I would recommend Apollo to any library considering Automation or replacing their current system.

Don't hesitate making the switch, it has been a game changer for our library. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Frees up more time for our staff to do other important tasks. We have also found their overdue notice generator to be a big improvement over our previous system. We have been able to get books back more quickly and more often, without losing as many to negligent patrons.. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Give the free trial a go. The product sells itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the biggest issues we have is getting our community to use the library. The online catalog, database integration, and most particularly a smooth transition to our downloadable E-book and audio book platform has attracted new users. Prior to the switch to Apollo the library's catalog records were variable from barely adequate to downright bad. Access to free, high quality copy cataloging records as part of the package has helped us improve the library's catalog and given more access points for end users utilize.

Apollo knows its market - small to medium sized public libraries - and it serves their needs better than any other product currently available. By keeping its focus on this market, it continues to meet the changing needs of its customers and keeps the price down. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Apollo software is the core of the library services that we provide. Every staff member interacts with this software daily. It is easily learned, maximizes staff time and minimizes staff frustration. It was very affordable to implement and to continue to use. Customer feedback is welcomed and incorporated into product updates regularly. Updates are painless and happen without any need for staff intervention. There is absolutely no way that I could have increased circulation metrics by over 60% while losing 2 staff F.T.E.s without Apollo. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Any small or medium sized library I would encourage with all my heart to give Apollo a strong look. They specialize in these areas so they can meet your needs. And the do wonderfully at it. The staff time we have gained and the patron satisfaction has long outweighed any cost associated with the change. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are so many. Our patrons can renew online, see their accounts, place holds, communicate with us via text messaging, and it goes on and on. It has reduced staff time in many areas such as dealing with overdue items and fines, patrons updates, etc. It is so easy to train new staff and so easily accessed by our patrons. Our life is much happier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I cannot say enough good things about Apollo. It is easy to use, feature rich, reasonably priced, and constantly upgrading and improving. What other charge extra for, Apollo has built right in for no extra charge. Supplemental services, like auto-calling, are very inexpensive and enhance the whole product.

An integrated library system is the core piece of technology in any public library. It enables us to do everything else that we do. SIP2 compliance means compatibility with other products and knowing that your library is not technologically isolated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Try it. Your install will be painless. Support issues rarely come up (once in 3 years), but if they do, their support is fast and accurate. When you import catalog records, you save a lot of time. I cataloged an entire bookmobile in an afternoon, with the feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our cataloging process is faster now, holds are processed quicker, data reporting is easier, and our catalog searches are simpler and more comprehensive for patrons. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It offers a lot of functionality for a fairly low price. If you need a change, this should definitely be a strong point to consider. It will take time to understand the background functionality of the reports and settings, but it's generally worth the difficulty there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The software removes the need for a local server which cost us a lot of staff time and effort. The online implementation is far better so that patrons can far more easily browse and find things within the collection. The contact functionality for reserves and overdues also saves a ton of time and money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I highly recommend Apollo. They will give you an unlimited trial period with your library data uploaded to the trial so you can easily see how it will work for your specific situation. The customer service is excellent and they are constantly updating the product. They are responsive to additional feature requests. APollo seamlessly intergrates with other services that libraries offer as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

APollo makes it much easier to track usage of library materials. The reports function allows us to run a variety of reports based on items or people. The main benefit is time, much less time is spent processing items to prepare them to be used by the public as well as checking items in and out of the library is seamless. This frees up staff to work on other projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
