What do you like best about Charles River IMS?

The tool has many functionnalities that I would like to be able to use...but the product is too unstable Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Charles River IMS?

The tool freezes many times a day.

The support is worst than you can imagine in your nightmares !

We use it in my company for more than 5 years, I have issues with slowness, freeze every day. The company promised to solve them many times, some calls but nothing done to solve it. They are unable to solve them because they promise but they don't do...

Very expensive tool thanks to a lot of functionnalities but the system freeze many times a day, the level of operationnal risk implied is very high for the user.

Other tools are able to do the same with better performances Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Charles River IMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Charles River should provide many solutions but the tool is too unstable to be a good tool. The tool generates a lot of operationnal risk and the company doesn't care about the resolution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
