Reasons for choosing RedAlert

Product is good when it works/complete. We are 2-3 years of use and items still are not complete. Currently exploring a demo on another product to migrate away from.

Pros

Software is easy to use. All the modules work together real well. I guess my issue is the customer service - horrible!

Cons

The customer service and support is the worst. If you want something done or added you should plan at least a year out. It may take that long for someone to call you back or actually get the item completed. When you see there booth at any show, just keep walking.
