### "The receptionist" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *25 July 2022* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Has had incredible uptime and support has been quick to assist with any issues. The ability to have guests sign legal waivers before getting their badge printed out is very helpful.
> 
> **Cons**: Selecting different sites and be convoluted.
>

### "Review" — 3.0/5

> **Katie** | *25 May 2021* | Judiciary | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The convenience of it is exceptional for my clients.  Especially those who have transportation conflicts.  They can check in and report to me through the link which is very very nice for them and for me.  I am in an office by myself so this has been very handy.
> 
> **Cons**: I am in the court system so we have to chrono and keep documents of everything.  I wish there was a way to upload fillable documents my clients could fill out and than submit to me where I can print them out directly.  Or give them an option to print directrly to my office.  My computer does not convert over nicely and it is a hassle when I have so many clients checking in.  I do not have the time to convert each report individually.
> 
> Overall, this as worked ok.  The IDEA of it is amazing.  It is just missing a few components to make it perfect. It has been very nice and opened up the line of communication and convenience with clients.  In this line of work the ability to upload fillable documents and/or the ability to print out directly what they provide rather than having to convert information would be a huge help.
