I was always impressed with their consistency and follow through. The product has made a great impact in the development of our employees. Pros easy to use, innovative, fun, and makes the administrative burden of mentoring no longer an issue. Cons There was not anything I did not like. The product is easy to use and makes sense for our business.

I find it easy to navigate and like that I can keep my regular work tasks in a different place than my mentorship program tasks. Pros Gives an easy to navigate "Dashboard" view of tasks. Keeps information centralized and easy to access. Helps separate regular work tasks from mentorship tasks to minimize confusion. Cons Everything is great so far! I am fairly new to the platform, but setting up was easy, and so far has been easy to navigate. Review Source HP H P. Employee Engagement Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Terrible User Experience, good matching." July 9, 2024 1.0 Not great. The people we worked with were not helpful, and again, there were not many product updates to the user interface. Pros The matching algorithm is great - lots of customization Cons Everything else is terrible. The entire user interface was not user friendly, we were locked into a 3 year contract with small useless improvements on Chronus side of the user interface, none of our employees used the platform because it was so bad.

It's my first time using this platform but I'm very much impressed by how this works! Pros I loved how organized and well-planned out the structure and layout of the platform is. It's very easy and convenient to use. Cons Nothing! Maybe the meeting platform can be improved a bit, it felt too impersonal. It felt more like watching a youtube video :( however, it was convenient that I could pause the video, which prevents anyone from missing anything important. Review Source BR Becca R.

Director, Harvard College Women's Center Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Growing Mentorship Programs" October 26, 2022 5.0 Our Chronus representatives have listened to and incorporated much of our feedback throughout implementation and ongoing support conversations. We have been able to support upon historic programs and launch new initiatives, especially those supporting diversity in the workplace, through this platform that might not have had a more difficult time launching if it weren't for the availability of this platform and the support provided by Chronus. Pros We were able to dramatically increase the capacity for participation in our mentorship programs through the ease of matching and communications provided by Chronus. Cons The program is on the expensive end and it took a while to get buy-in for broader implementation. Getting set-up on the platform can take longer and require a few more coding skills than expected and there are so many functions that sometimes it can be overwhelming to track everything. Reason for choosing Chronus We chose Chronus for the diversity of functions, especially the customizable matching algorithm, communications tools, and program options, data collection and reporting, and integrations with other platforms. Review Source Response from Chronus June 23, 2023 Hi Heidi, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're thrilled to hear that Chronus helped increase the capacity for participation and made matching and communication easier for you.

The platform has a few areas for improvement, but it provides a solid foundation for structured mentorship programs. Pros One of the best aspects of Chronus is its intuitive user interface, which makes it simple to navigate and manage mentoring programs. I also appreciate the matching algorithm that connects mentors and mentees effectively based on skills and interests, ensuring a productive mentoring experience. The platform's reporting tools offer useful insights for tracking progress, which is helpful for both participants and program managers. Cons The platform could benefit from more customization options, as some features feel limited for unique program needs. Occasionally, the notifications are delayed, which may hinder timely communication between mentors and mentees. Additionally, initial setup and integration with other systems could be more seamless.
