PowerDMS Overview

What is PowerDMS?

PowerDMS is a policy and compliance management platform for high-trust organizations. PowerDMS is the leading, cloud-based platform bringing compliance to life through policy, training, and accreditation management solutions. PowerDMS provides a secure, cloud-based repository to manage policy and procedure documents throughout the entire lifecycle. Develop, review, approve, distribute, and track every policy with confidence, knowing that only one version exists, old versions are archived, and every instance is up-to-date after revisions. This creates a single source of truth for all your policy content. With a platform like PowerDMS, you get an ecosystem where key management solutions and tools connect and inform one another. It gives you control over a single, living version of every document, so when you update a policy, for example, every instance of it in your training, public-facing documents, and accreditation systems is updated as well. In other words, PowerDMS brings compliance to life.

What do you like best about PowerDMS?

The greatest thing about PowerDMS is their customer support! They are always available to answer questions or do remote help sessions if needed. Their tech support members are friendly, never make you feel rushed when providing assistance, and go above and beyond to make sure you resolve your issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDMS?

PowerDMS allows users managing accreditation processes to run reports showing the status of their assessment. While a step in the right direction, there needs to be an easier way to distinguish and log when specific cycle years are complete. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering PowerDMS:

Do it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I love the ability to manage our policy and be paperless. Creating, collaborating and revising documents via electronic workflows eliminates the confusion we used to experience when multiple versions of the same document went through several departments for input on revisions. Now everything is managed within one workflow and all changes are made to one version of the policy. All previous versions of the policy are stored and archived versions can be accessed if needed. When new policies or revisions to policies are approved, then the policy is "published" and is automatically sent out to the staff for their review and signature. Signatures are captured electronically and stored within the system. Gone are the days of our paper sign-off sheets! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PowerDMS?

The search capability and document storage capability make it so easy to find documents. I also like the report and/or assignment features that let you see who still needs to complete training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDMS?

There are certain functions, such as a simple print button for all employees to be able to print their own certificate history, that is not available. Our agency doesn't like the fact that supervisors can enroll their employees in training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Organization. With manual filing, there were documents placed in the wrong folders. It was also more time-consuming to find requested documents. Record-keeping of policy sign off is a breeze, as well as ensuring we are meeting accreditation standards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PowerDMS?

I love that the staff take you through every step of the way, and not just sell it to you and dump it on you.

There's a growing, interactive community in which they actually listen to their customers and value feedback. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDMS?

There's honestly not much I don't like.

Like any new platform, it's hard to get some users online.

I could like an SSO function to make it easier to get into. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Centralizing Policy, manual, and testing information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PowerDMS?

Reviews on policies are conducted electronically. Our assessment for accreditation is housed in PowerDMS in one location instead of using individual paper manuals to show compliance. All of our training for on boarding a new employee and our annual training is conducted in PowerDMS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDMS?

Limitations in running reports. There needs to be additional options to choose from to pull the data that you need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering PowerDMS:

Select a software such as PowerDMS that is not industry specific. Other departments in our organization are now also using PowerDMS for their policy management software. PowerDMS appeals to multiple industries and organizations. The pricing for the assessment part of the software is extremely reasonable. The time savings just by using this software makes it cost effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Preparing for accreditation takes less time using PowerDMS. Our electronic assessment is always ready for an audit. Training of new staff is more efficient by creating the courses and tests within PowerDMS. PowerDMS tracks all edits to policies and automatically archives previous version.

What do you like best about PowerDMS?

PowerDMS is very user friendly and easy to navigate. It's very customizable with user groups and makes tracking what employees have and have not completed/signed off very easy to determine. The training portion is great with courses able to be created to make training large number of staff easy and certificates make an easy way to track who has completed training and who hasn't. Support for the product is phenomenal and very responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PowerDMS?

There's not much I don't like. PowerDMS is quick to correct problems and is very open to improve user interface and functionality of the program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering PowerDMS:

Get it. If you need document management, this system is excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We've made policy acknowledgement very streamlined and getting people to sign off on policies is very easy. It has made their lives easy with being able to research policies in the field for quick easy answers. We have been implementing training records tracking and documentation and it's proving to be outstanding. The ability to input a course, see who has completed and who hasn't, and award certificates that can be time-specific to require annual (or whatever time you want) recerts as needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
