Pros Privileges, though you cannot copy and paste and no spell check. they need to update the system, not charge and arm and a leg for an outdated system. Cons I wish it had more options and was more user friendly. the verifications. Outdated system. Please get better.

I love the alerts because they help me manage my deadlines and time management. The new rollouts are very interesting, and I am excited to use some of the new features that pertain to my area of work. Pros Ready for PSV action! I love the alerts because they help me manage my deadlines and time management. The new rollouts are very interesting, and I am excited to use some of the new features that pertain to my area of work. Cons Gap information widget is not easily read and accuracy is not 100%. Down time when updates are rolled out, BUT this has gotten significantly better Switched from [OnBase](https://www.capterra.com/p/62208/OnBase/) Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

Senior Credentialing Coordinator Hospital & Health Care ### "Senior Credentialing Coordinator" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 March 18, 2025 Overall, my experience has been wonderful with Credential Stream. It has made the credentialing process much easier even though its more tailored to a Hospital Based organization rather than a primary care/multi-specialty group like our organization. Pros I love the widgets and the overall visual experience of the platform. Cons The variables are not easy to choose when building reports and a lot of the time it's a trial-and-error process when building new reports. Alternatives considered [MedTrainer](https://www.capterra.com/p/176583/MedTrainer/) Reasons for choosing CredentialStream It was better suited for our group and was the easiest to navigate out of the others we demoed.

Credentialing Analyst I Hospital & Health Care ### "CredentialStream Pros" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 March 18, 2025 CredentialStream has made my job easier and more efficient. Even though I have just started using this about 5 months ago, I have been able to close out intial and reappointment files faster than ever, and everything is more organized to be able to work more efficiently. Pros The organization and detailed system which helps make my job more efficient. Cons I am not a fan of not being able to manually add requested privileges, if the privileges did not come through their reappointment application, due to their current privileges already listed; it won't let me add the same DOP twice even though it's will be categorized at requested privileges not current. Switched from [Echo](https://www.capterra.com/p/214377/Echo/) Our organization wanted to try a different system that would work better for us.

Pros Simplicity of most sections make the system easy to use for reporting, organization, etc. Cons Reporting variables are sometimes hard to differentiate since they are just in code language.

I can't imagine using another software. Pros The Apply Feature and Bolt Reports are excellent. Cons Not all the credentialing applications are loaded in the library. Also, a lot of them are out-of-date. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.

Associate Manager of Credentialing Hospital & Health Care ### "Honest Review" 2.0 Overall Rating 2.0 2.0 Ease of Use 3.0 3.0 Features 2.0 2.0 Customer Service 3.0 3.0 Likelihood to Recommend 1/10 March 18, 2025 after 15 months "live" in the system, we still struggle daily with issues/failures/delays in the system. At any given time we have a multitude of tickets open with support. We have lost significant efficiency since go-live, due to extra clicks, extra navigation, slowness, outages, etc. Pros Some of the Bolt reporting capabilities are helpful, but there are many variables left to be desired, and creating a Bolt report is not very easy for beginners. Cons Automation failing without explanation (and without us finding out until after the fact), delays, outages, slowness, visual presentation (white background is detrimental to ocular health), inflexibility in many areas.

HR Manager Hospital & Health Care ### "So Far So Good" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 January 13, 2025 All of the trainers have been wonderful, kind and patient. The system seems intuitive and user friendly so far. Any bugs we have been able to get worked out so far. The payer side of things is lacking for us per our Billing Manager. Pros I like how automated that my credentialing process will be once we get it implemented. Cons The training is extensive and too much to do prior to the actual implementation. Alternatives considered [Medallion](https://www.capterra.com/p/250098/Medallion/) [symplr Provider](https://www.capterra.com/p/151924/symplr-provider/) Reasons for choosing CredentialStream Cost and functionality - this software does what we need it to do at a cost we can afford as a non-profit facility.

Credentialing Systems Analyst Insurance ### "You asked for it" 1.0 Overall Rating 1.0 1.0 Ease of Use 1.0 1.0 Features 1.0 1.0 Customer Service 1.0 1.0 Likelihood to Recommend 0/10 January 9, 2025 After having been part of 10 system conversions, this has by far been the absolute worst one I have ever had to go thru, and over two years later, it has only gotten worse. Honestly, it would not have been my selection to go with after having demo'd it prior to coming to work for my current employer. I already knew the con's and had many other references telling us to avoid this program at all costs. I would have immediately told my current employer to continue demoing other software programs and not go with this program. Pros Unfortunately, as I am looking thru the system, I can't say that there is anything that I like about the system as it has next to nothing that is truly Dental only related and you are unable to customize specifically for dental. Cons inability to customize for specific customer. all or none and we will only change it if we get enough likes from everyone is not effective, system slowness, non-stop high priority fixes, constant config remapping following every fix, variables that are archived and yet still continue to cause issues, lack of customer service knowledge when calling in for assistance, shouldn't have to literally train the rep on your software and the list goes on. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor January 14, 2025 Hilary, Thank you for letting us know about this.
