EHR Administrator Hospital & Health Care ### "Straightforward EHR Software" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 7/10 May 21, 2020 Again, the system is very straight forward and easy to use and the amount of support I've received from \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] has been amazing. Pros The product is extremely easy to use and very straightforward. Cons In my opinion, the biggest downfall is the lack of data checks and required fields throughout the system. While I agree that not everything is required, there should always be some amount of mandatory data. AL Advantage doesn't have anything in place to prompt you if certain fields were missed or keyed in the wrong format.

Pros ease and that state licensing approves it. customer service is great. Cons the medication section . it is cumbersome and is not friendly for clinicians to whom we present request for reconciliation or review. the software captures and saves all meds that are entered into the system and does not have a feature to archive so it is not possible to generate a clean current list of active meds. it also does not archive old orders. we have a lot of order changes. there should be a way to segregate so that a current list of accurate meds is provided. also, the assessment tool is good but should also be a stand alone . the full service plan is not often needed but the basic assessment is. currently , the assessment function does not capture any notes or instructions. additionally, not all facilities use a point system. this is confusing to customers. the face sheet does not always put the alternate resp party contacts in the right order. it should be specific so we can choose what shows up on face sheet. needs to add a specific section for annual vaccines and calendar of office visits- which dr is seen, date, etc. Reasons for choosing AL Advantage strong history and working relationship Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

Response from Vendor September 16, 2019 Carla, We apologize you were having issues reaching a technical support representative. AL Advantage cannot unlock user accounts due to there being a verification process for user access. The HIPAA HI-TECH Security Act will not allow us to grants users access to ePHI without the proper verification steps. We apologize for this regulation but we must follow the HIPAA Security rules and regulations. We apologize for this disturbance but are happy the system is easy-to-use. Thank you DP Debra P.

LPN Hospital & Health Care ### "User Friendly" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 August 1, 2019 Pros The care plans are easy to read for the care staff giving the direct care. Communication of care is important in our line of work. AL Advantage has well organized care plans for staff to get the information needed. I also like the drop down menu with options for title of chart notes. It helps keep all chart notes for certain topics organized when you need to find certain information. Cons It would be nice to be able to add more information into certain areas of care. Some resident's don't need information under "grooming" entry, but need extra room under "dressing" on the care plan. It would be nice to not be so limited on space per heading, instead limit space per page.
