### "General Manager "

August 7, 2024

4.0

I have been working with Event Cinemas for over 20 years, and I can confidently say that CM3 is one of our best systems. I absolutely love it and would highly recommend it to any business.

Pros

I really appreciate receiving live email notifications when a contractor signs in, rather than having to rely solely on their word. It’s far better than using a sign-in book, which can easily get lost and lacks any reliable record. Additionally, I love that the notification includes the contractor’s mobile number, providing me with a name and contact number that’s easily accessible both in the moment and for future reference.

Cons

Just last week, a contractor signed in, and I received an email notification. It wasn’t a service I booked or was aware of. The notification was great because I could call the contractor directly on their mobile to ask what they were doing at my site and why they were there. This saved me from having to search around to find them. However, I wished I could simply send a message from the email notification to their app or mobile number to get the same information. A text box within the email for me to ask, ‘Hi, I am the general manager at the location you just signed in at. Could you please let me know what you are working on today?’ would be very helpful. This would provide an extra record of their activity and save me from having to call them or log into the website, which can be very time-consuming.

### "CM3 review - Caroline Cassidy"

May 30, 2023

3.0

The overall experience with CM3 has been positive. We have managed to migrate 97% of our contractors over to CM3 and worked through the experience and process with them. Our business requires that they are CM3 compliant and this system manages the process.The benefits of using the system are obvious - up to date platform on all levels of compliance.Fantastic support team from CM3 has been enormously helpful. They are insightful, solution motivated and always willing to assist with issues or problems. Most importantly, patient in the early days on using the system.

Pros

The contractor database is invaluable as an overview. Very easy to use - easy to manage contractors in all capacities. Simple methods of invites, and management. Integrates well with our company's needs.

Cons

The least redeeming feature of this product is that at various times, updates are not shown, and little hiccups and mix up in variables with ABNs have occurred which has been frustrating at times.

Reason for choosing Cm3

It was recommended to us by our Manager/Director. No previous products were used, tried or tested.

### "Great work on the new portal format and content."

July 4, 2024

4.0

Prompt service delivery. Site is any to navigate. Good portal format and content.

Pros

The systems and portals used are very thorough and detailed. Contractors insurances and credentials are check by the audit team.

Cons

Expired and dormient contractors should be remove from the screens and sent to an archived system. Operators sometimes over complicate and misinterpret questions asked and requests.

### "One stop shop to cover WHS and Insurances"

August 7, 2024

5.0

Overall, I've been an active user in the last 4 years and found it a really good portal.

Pros

This is a one stop shop to manage all contractors insurances and safety documents. You can also assign multiple sites to each contractor.

Cons

Cm3 has still not mandated contractors licences and qualifications which ai believe very important.

### "Effective risk management tool for organizations"

May 31, 2024

5.0

Overall, its fairly simple and easy enough to navigate once you have sorted out the little quirks and nuances. Marketplace is also a handy tool as CM3 is a gateway to eligibility to work for our organization. So, checking that box off via marketplace makes things more streamlined for engagement

Pros

Quick easy check for compliance, insurance currency and management of the induction process for our organization.

Cons

Some of the functions aren't intuitive or where you would expect them to be so from a usability perspective elements can be cumbersome

### "CM3 For Contractor Safety Management"

March 1, 2024

5.0

Excellent. Does what its meant to do and gives the company the reassurance that the minimum requirements are met as regards safety management.

Pros

I like that CM3 take control over what are the basic requirements. Of what is required to keep our contractors safe.

Cons

What we use works well may try other product options in the future

### "Cm3 Review"

January 31, 2024

4.0

Overall has been beneficial for the company

Pros

The quick succession to which contractors or users are able to be notified and able to link with one another.

Cons

Database could use some bug fixes. At times I find it difficult to find a contractor I already know is on Cm3

Hi Travis, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We have made some significant updates to our database, and the recent launch of the Cm3 Marketplace should alleviate your concerns. We now allow for business name and ABN search for known contractors, as well as work type, job type, and risk type filters for finding new ones. Don't hesitate to reach out to our team if you have any questions, feedback or requests. Thank you again!

### "Prequalify Contractors with ease"

June 7, 2023

5.0

Pros

We use Cm3 to help with our document management between our state offices and also manage our regular contractors we have sign in to different sites. I particularly like the safety management program we're able to implement and record that all contractors have read and agreed to our terms and conditions.

Cons

The GUI interference could be more pleasant to work with. Sometimes the search functionality is a little confusing.

Coincidentally, we have just implemented an overhauled contractor search module that may address the confusion you referenced. Feel free to log in and give it a go. Our support and product teams would love your feedback on the improvements.

### "Can't upload what I don't have"

December 14, 2022

2.0

Occasionally there is a disconnect between the client and CM3 regarding what type of "membership" we can sign up to. As a supplier we stuck in the middle. The "membership" provides us with no benefits other than meeting client compliance requirements. We have never amended our WHS MS based on the unsolicited feedback from CM3.

Pros

Fee structure is not dependent on number of clients - at least I don't think it is. But who would know?

Cons

We have a number of entities operating under our umbrella company but because they have different ABNs we have to create an account for each. The information we provide is exactly the same, the client is often the same, but we get charged the same amount each time. There is no transparency regarding the risk profile or fee structure. Our risk profile increased because we have ISO certification! No one can tell me how that works.Automated reminder emails start 8-12 weeks before documentation expires and are then received every week. Can't upload what I don't have.

Reason for choosing Cm3

Client choice - not ours.
