### "Perfect"

May 28, 2019

5.0

I was asked to create a relational database for a client. They needed to create and edit clients, the needed to book clients on to training sessions, and then they needed to be able to assign one or more products to the client. Not only was this possible with Kohezion, but as a previous relational database programmer, I initially created linked tables which wasn't needed - thanks to the power of the Kohezion platform. It has made the development process so much easier.

Pros

I was looking for a cloud based database creation solution - I've previously been a Microsoft Access programmer and I needed to find a suitable solution for one of my clients. I had a look at a few different options and then, thankfully, I came across Kohezion. It is absolutely perfect for me to create a database solution for my client using this platform. I had a few questions, and Thierry, the Customer Solutions Director was able to assist within 24 hours. Not only did he answer them fully, he also showed me some simplified workflows, so that I could build a much superior solution for my client.

Cons

I've yet to find any cons. Anything that I initially struggled with was answered in full by Thierry.

### "All In One"

March 3, 2023

5.0

My over all experience is wonderful! When I found the option of Kohezion and the encryption technology, I was sold! I tried many other products that were not the right fit. \[sensitive content hidden\] is amazing! He is open to ideas for features that might help my business and he is always available for questions.

Pros

What I liked most about the software is that I can program the features without being a Mathematician.

Cons

I miss the "Tab" version of Online Databases and I am always tweaking the database to make it more streamlined.

### "We use Kohezion"

October 15, 2018

4.0

It helps us track freelancers that we work. We can modify and adapt the DB to suit our ongoing and evolving needs.

Pros

\- It's very customisable which is vital. - Free version! - Web based so you can use it anywhere.

Cons

\- Initial front end is tricky to use, especially when creating your front ends.

Response from Kohezion

October 16, 2018

Thanks so much for your candid feedback. We hear you on the front end UI being a bit tricky initially, so we've got great news. Our new UI is launching shortly, with an interface that makes DIY database customization as easy as making pancakes. We'll be launching a creator wizard, templates and tools for automating tasks that are otherwise manual, repetitive, and a waste of your time. Stay tuned!

### "Above & Beyond"

July 2, 2021

5.0

Fantastic!

Pros

The #1 benefit of Kohezion is their incredible customer service. You don't get service like this anymore. The fact that I can get on a zoom with IT and have them spend time and walk me through any customizations and questions is just incredible. Thierry Tremblay was so incredible, friendly, and knowledgeable and helped me build our platform to our needs. You just don't get that kind of one on one service from anyone anymore. 5 Stars. This service will keep us a loyal customers for years to come.

Cons

Non really, building it can be a little confusing if you are new but with the IT support and help they provide it is literally a non issue. You email IT and they will handle it, get you an answer, or get you in a meeting with someone who can help you.

### "Kohezion have provided me with full developing functionality, without cutting "corners". "

May 15, 2018

5.0

Pros

The Kohezion user interface provides you with a rich set of objects and controls that makes it relatively easy to develop a cloud based database application, in a fast and secure way, with all the bells and whistles that you would expect from a major player in this arena. Kohezion provides me with all the aspects that I am looking in a cloud product of its kind, aspects or attributes such as Security (Cyber security), operational reliability, highly functional in terms of providing all the objects, tools and widgets to provide my application with a modern, powerful, attractive user interface, ease of use (in terms of developing, maintenance and environment administration), detailed audit trail, superb support, rich documentation and tutorials, and in addition, very, very affordable. All this package get even more attractive when you add up a friendly, accessible corporate culture of service that goes from customer support department all the way up to its CEO. Everyone in the organization is knowledgeable, kind and friendly. More than satisfied, I am impressed with the quality, speed, dedication and diligence of their service.

Cons

So far, there is nothing that I don't like. The only thing that I would say is this, I would love to see more, and I say more, "branding" options or alternatives (there are branding options now, to make that clear) in a future. But that's clearly something that I would love to see, not something that I don't like.

### "Kohezion Delivers Everything You'd Need for Cloud Database Applications"

December 17, 2020

5.0

The overall experience with Kohezion was a great one - our client needed a database to keep track of a variety of different stakeholders, agencies, and individuals that they frequently contact and host events for. Kohezion has made that effort seamless and was the key step in enabling a variety of reporting functions that were sorely needed to assess engagement, attendance, and other important metrics.

Pros

Kohezion has all of the features you'd need for cloud-based databases and applications that sit on top of them. The interface is intuitive and is easily explained to users who aren't familiar with traditional databases and how they operate. \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] and his team are incredibly helpful and they respond quickly, deliver excellent support, and have a variety of options if your team needs additional development tools.

Cons

The in-browser help documentation could be a bit more explanatory, but any questions we had were very quickly addressed by the support team via email and phone calls.

Reason for choosing Kohezion

Kohezion offered additional support and development at a very reasonable price compared to other competitors.

### "Excellent Tool with outstanding support"

September 5, 2019

5.0

Kohezion is very easy to work with and these guys are very customer friendly. They really thought through the customer's needs for creating data bank projects.

Pros

There are a number of reasons why I'm really fond of the software. First of all, projects can be customised on a very detailed level to the user's needs. For every databank, the administrator can not only define the number and kind of fields they like but also their size etc. Second of all, data can be imported from excel files which makes it easy to pull information from another tool. Furthermore, useability for endusers is very high because of intelligent conditions that allow to hide not needed fields or to classify them as mandatory if the conditions are met. Last but not least, Kohezion offers great support for whatever question I have and take time to explain features and offer solutions to challenges in my projects.

Cons

At the beginning it may take some time to understand how the software works and due to the number of options to understand the purpose of each field and setting. However, because of the terrific personal support I got the hang of it in no time.

### "Simple and intuitive"

November 13, 2018

5.0

We are a small publishing company based in the UK. We were looking for a cloud-based database that would allow footnote references to be updated continuously and shared amongst our editors, who are in different locations around the world. As a not-for-profit organisation, we were able to benefit from Kohezion's generosity and enjoy a standard Kohezion account free of charge. We very much appreciate this and couldn't really function without it now.

Pros

It's very easy to get up and running with Kohezion. With a free trial to play with, you can follow a hunch and see what best suits your needs. There's also a sense that real live human beings are there, waiting in the wings to help out if you need it, so you're not left to sink or swim. Kohezion is people-centred.

Cons

We started with the free version, and it could get a bit slow at times. However, once we upgraded to the full package, everything came together very easily.

### "Hands Down The Best Database You Can Buy"

July 19, 2018

5.0

Streamlined daily operations unlike ever before and the confidence knowing that we will be able to maintain complex data archiving for compliance.

Pros

We're a non-profit 501c3 and have complex documentation needs for our durable medical equipment to comply with grants, Medicare, and insurance. After spending a week looking at various databases, Kohezion was hands down the most powerful and the only platform that could manage our documentation, archiving requirements and search capabilities. Thierry assisted us with our implementation, and he took the time to understand what we needed. Because of his initial investment to understand what we needed, he even was able to make recommendations that we hadn't thought of before. Unlike other platforms, you won't find yourself needing another database program down the road. Kohezion is powerful, affordable and their support is impressive. Rarely do I give 5-star reviews (especially with software platforms) but Kohezion deserves it at every level.

Cons

Honestly none. The only regret is that we wish that we would have found Kohezion much earlier. It would have saved us a lot of expense and made daily operations so much easier.

April 1, 2016

5.0

We were having some technical issues with our Kohezion account (which turned out to be a user error!). I contacted customer support and they had the problem fixed within about 15 minutes. Then, they were able to walk me through some changes I needed to make, and as a result I got exactly what I needed out of my Kohezion database!

### "Kohezion for Granted"

October 6, 2020

5.0

I have had an overall positive experience with Kohezion, and customer service is great!

Pros

It makes it easy to keep track of grants won by our nonprofit clients.

Cons

It would be nice if all report results were able to be exported in some sort of file format (e.g., pivot tables) instead of having to take a screen shot. Additionally, it would be great if there were some informational videos demonstrating various tasks / reports, so I can finder answers quickly and refer back as needed.

### "Kohezion review"

October 12, 2018

5.0

We can stay in better contact with our customers by using Kohezion which results in a better business!

Pros

This software allows us to keep track of our customers by recording notes about conversations we have with our customers. As well as put reminder dates in to make reminder phone calls. Multiple staff members can look up a customer and see what they have shown interest in for our services and contact them.

Cons

I wish it was a little bit more customizable to our business needs.

### "Amazing customer support that gets you up and running with ease!"

February 1, 2021

5.0

The customer service and personalization is the reason I chose this company. The initial Zoom meetings to help me set up my database were performed with understanding of my needs, friendliness and patience you seldom see in today's world. Impressive!

Pros

It is a super intuitive program that allows you to easily grasp the concepts, workflows, tools, etc. quickly and easily. With little to no experience with databases, this program allows you to create a functional database that does exactly what you need to create useful output of data. The one on one initial training is invaluable and unexpected since most companies would charge you an arm and a leg for such a service if it even existed at all. This allowed me to grasp the program in such a way that would have taken an otherwise long and frustrating path if it was through chat or email.

Cons

None. From searching for a database to up and running within such a short time was impressive!

Reason for choosing Kohezion

The customer support. Databases are intimidating for most people and this makes it an "every person's" dream of creating a database that increases your businesses effectiveness.

### "Excellent Software!!! I recommend it, is a must have!!"

October 10, 2018

5.0

I am resolving several processes with Kohezion. I work with more than 10 different projects all built with Kohezion. We have a training company so we also teach our students to use Kohezion for their own projects. Customer service Team are very good. Always resolve all of our problems!!! Thumbs Up for them!!!

Pros

The functionality of being able to built your own database system by your own.

Cons

I would like to configure different views from the same project. I would like to have a better reporting platform. To have more options to work with the information in the database.

October 11, 2018

5.0

We use Kohezion to help us create individual budgets for our students and then use the features of the database to give an overview of the combined budget for all children.

Pros

They had a lot of instructional videos available to help with setup. Their customer support was awesome during the setup process. They were very helpful throughout the whole process via phone and email. The database was easy to use once it is all set up. We love the ability to be able to access the database anywhere.

Cons

We haven't ran into any features that we did not like about the software. So far everything is great.

### "Great Support from the Team"

December 1, 2016

5.0

We had an error code pop up out of the blue the other day & when we contacted the support team, they had the issue resolved within a couple hours. Their support team has been phenomenal in helping us resolve our issue quickly & efficiently. The team has also been helpful during our set up & provided us with additional guidelines to ensure that we were up & running quickly. We have a complex database & with their help, we were able to get our new database up & going within 48 hours. The system is very user friendly & they offer additional services to help with your setup. Great job Kohezion~

Pros

It is done on the website so we can access our information anywhere.

Cons

It is not mobile friendly (i.e. On tablets or phones) so when we are away from the office, we have a little bit of difficulty looking up information on the go. If this is a feature in development, we are looking forward to it's release.

Pros

The ease of use and being able to get it tailor made to suit your requirements

March 7, 2016

5.0

I've been using Kohezion for nearly one month now and I have to say that I am very Satisfied! If i had some starting problems the Customer Service helped me very fast and always gave me a solution. Some functions are a little bit hidden away but if you get the structure once than it is super easy to use. If you watch the tutorial carefully there should not be any problems in handling this software! There is one thing that i am missing - the linkage of two Projects (Databases) that enables you to add some points of your one database to the other could be a little bit more "precise" its hard to explain. All in all the Free Package gives me everything I need and comparing to some other programs i've (tried) to use this software is outstanding! Thanks - you make my work a whole lot easier and time efficient!

### "An online system that's customized toward our needs with reasonable costs"

August 7, 2017

5.0

Tracking leads, tracking customers and the products/services they purchased and used - all the benefits of a CRM.

Pros

The software is straightforward, customized, and it serves the purpose of CRM for a small business. Basically, the database can be customized to serve all your CRM needs without spending tens of thousands of dollars for a Silicon Valley company to do it for you. If you have concerns or need to edit the functionality of it, you can simply schedule an appointment with the assigned technician who is likely to solve all your problems. This gives us a peace of mind.

Cons

The database serves its purpose without too much fancy artwork. For instance, it can not customize the color, theme, or design that adds an impression to the new users. However, the software is still exceeding my expectations in its features.

Pros

We use Kohezion to keep track of fundraising sources, projects, clients, and writers. I found the set up to be easy and I was surprised by the number of features. I also appreciate that going in to make changes to the structure is simple enough that I can do that in minutes, as the users request changes and as we adapt it to our processes.

Cons

I can't think of any cons. The software is as advertised. Every time I had questions the customer support team was able to help me figure it out.

Simple to learn and use.

Pros

Simple, easy to learn and use. We had to transfer data from another CRM and my rep was able to duplicate our existing system into Kohezion. Works great!

Cons

I have not found anything I don't like. If I do, I can contact customer service nd they will change it to my liking.
