Associate Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Lacking accessibility and functionality" July 23, 2019 3.0 PowerChart enables us to communicate across facilities and disciplines for patient care. Lab results, visit summaries, H&Ps, nursing notes, and other disciplines' involvement is all present at our fingertips. However, having worked with another EMR product, I feel this product is lacking in many areas. More innovation could be done to make navigation simpler and the layout more viewer-friendly. Pros Much better than paper charting; ability for interdisciplinary communication Cons Not as user-friendly or functional as other EMR products out there. Chart reviews take much longer and documentation feels so dependent on flowsheets that it's difficult to find important information or to communicate effectively. Review Source JS Jessica S. Genetic Counselor Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Not as user-friendly as EPIC" May 25, 2022 4.0 I prefer EPIC over Cerner. Pros Cerner is a good EMR program with the basic features of patient appointments, documentation, outside records, lab results, etc. Cons Cerner is not as user-friendly as EPIC's EMR. It takes about a month of daily use to get the hang of where different files and information are located in the patient chart. I wish its search feature could search more in-depth within the patient chart like EPIC does. Review Source AL Antonice L. Nurse Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Cerner review" October 6, 2019 4.0 Well, my overall experience my be a little more significant than others. This program is ONLY used by those in healthcare settings so I get a little more experience and time with it than most. Pros I like that it’s now easier to chart. We’re able to chart vitals, admitting notes, doctors and nursing notes, ADL’s and vitals in one swoop. Things aren’t really hard to find either. Once you’re directed where to go and with some practice( which in a hospital of clinic setting you HAVE to use this everyday) it becomes just like texting. Easy and smooth Cons There IS a lot of clicking. You basically click maybe twice to get to different options but that is overlooked pretty easily. Review Source Stephen H. Small business owner Medical Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Cerner an ok but antiquated product" October 14, 2016 3.0 I used this product for several years at a previous job. I did not like it that much. I thought it was antiquated and difficult to use. Pros They did pioneer some of the first things in EMARs Cons Not well organized, user friendly, or fast. I found it to be very difficult to use. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Medical Assistant Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Gets the job done!" April 7, 2019 4.0 All in all it's a good product and I am able to get my work done. Pros This program, for the most part is easy to navigate. The layout is fairly simple to follow. I am usually able to accomplish what I need in a days work without worrying about the system booting me out or freezing up. Cons I don't like that there are several different ways to do one task. This can make training new hires very difficult and easily confused. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Exercise Specialist Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "New software for hospital" August 3, 2018 5.0 Pros Cerner was a big step up from where our organization was prior. After the initial learning phase, Cerner provided a clean, modern, easy to navigate software for a hospital of over 2000 employees. There were many different ways to get a task done in Cerner which was helpful across the board for different learning styles. Cons Within the first six months of use, it seemed like there more system crashes than there should have been. This put many departments behind and made things difficult. Review Source Enid G. PACS SUPPORT ASST. Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "overall of power chart" August 1, 2019 4.0 Pros works well at times and provide the information that it's needed for patient info. Cons power chart could improve more with a newer software with my shortcut and easier finding. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Patient experience specialist Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Cerner user review" August 20, 2018 5.0 Pros I have used many ehr systems like epic, nex gen and cerner. Like all emr system it’s pretty user friendly, less clicking than EPIC. In terms of searching records within cerner you are able to search keywords and identify all the documents related to the key word which is really nice. Patient registration etc, is comparable to epic. Cons I have a bias towards epic, in terms of features and information exchange. However Cerner is just as good and has a few features that make it an exceptional ehr system. Review Source Aaron M. Pharmacist Pharmaceuticals Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Gets the job done without all the bells and whistles " June 9, 2019 4.0 Pros Fairly easy to use and navigate. Does not have a lot of extra functions that you get lost in when trying to search for specific information in a profile. Cons Some basic features, such as charting, could be updated to be more user friendly and shareable to other health professionals using the software. Review Source LF Leslie F. Chief Nursing Officer Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Solid EHR, that is multi functional for clinic and hospital " June 23, 2020 5.0 I would recommend to a hospital with an ambulatory clinic as it helps keep information flowing between the two systems in an accurate manner Pros All areas are basically the same so using this product for ambulatory as well as hospital and emergency provides ease of use. Many other facilities use this product so that is helpful in sharing of information. Cons It is expensive. There were some issues with our build and the billing does not work as well as we had hoped. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Student Research Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Wonderful Product and quite easy to use" July 25, 2019 4.0 Pros Ease of use - it was great to not need much training to use this software Cons Some capabilities could be useful to be added Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Medical Doctor Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Medical software at its finest" January 9, 2019 4.0 Pros I have been using Cerner Powerchart for over four years and still consider it the best medical software. I find the layout to be easy to navigate and extremely user friendly. Unlike so many other software, you dont have to click through tons of boxes to complete a simple task Cons I really love this software and struggle to find cons. Occasionally when I click on the software icon the software doesn't load and occasionally when I'm using the software it freezes and I have to close it and reopen. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer RN Case Manager Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Cerner Extended care Road Notes" January 27, 2019 3.0 Then individual applications work great but you still end up having to chart things multiples times because the applications don't communicate with each other. I think you should be able to document in the the nurses note an update to physician order or careplan and the information automatically update the other applications. Pros The nurses note flows well and is quick to complete. Cons The nurses note does not communicate with any other applications like care plans or physician orders. You have to leave the nurses note to update care plan or enter a new order. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Genetic Counselor Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Makes things easy" September 7, 2019 5.0 It is a great place to compile all records and look up patient information when needed. It has helped me stay on track with clinic notes. Pros I like that Cerner is transparent enough so that nothing is too hard to figure out. I am able to find patients easily, write clinic notes easily, and view past records easily. Cons You can only see up to 500 records before things start to disappear. I do not like this. Additionally, it can be hard to find certain records, perhaps a search bar within the records would make things easier. Switched from [Epic](https://www.capterra.com/p/122278/EpicCare-EMR/) I was not working for the company when the switch occurred. Review Source PM Pearl M. Practical radiology technician Medical Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Cerner can be very detailed but there are too many clicks" April 14, 2023 3.0 Pros Cerner Cerner can be very detailed and specific Cons There are too many different ways to complete a task. And there are too many buttons to complete one task Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Chief Medical Officer Medical Practice Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great EHR with Simplicity" December 18, 2018 4.0 Able to see a lot of patients once learned and have a easy and flowing clinic. Pros Easy to use once learned, quick functionality, templates are available for ease of use. Cons Learning curve is a bit steep, can be slow at times depending on server. Review Source DC David C. AR and Billing Specialist Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "There when you need it" July 26, 2019 4.0 I work with this on a daily basis and it is a godsend, I pull records on a daily basis filing appeals and what not. I could not be any happier with the software, it is rarely down and when it is, It has been fixed rather quickly. Pros I like the ability to look for records by "doctor" it makes it so much easier and fast to get the records you need without searching the entire account and visits. Cons I really have too many bad things to say about the software system, it has always been there for me when I need it, I have yet to run into any problems when finding records. Finding older records can sometime be a little tricky but again it works great for me. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Medical Assistant, Clinical Lead Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "PowerChart: A robust EMR system, but not easy to learn" April 13, 2019 4.0 Pros The software is customization to some extent. It can help to ensure that clinical staff are filling in all required documentation, which is nice from a coding and charging perspective. It makes sure that all the required sections are filled in that are needing to bill something. Cons It is not an easy program to learn. It also can take a significant amount of time to chart things if your staff is used to being able to write their own notes. Review Source IH Ian H. IT Support Specialist Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Not user friendly for staff" December 22, 2022 2.0 It has been a stressful year implementing this as our all in one solution for EMR, feedback from all staff members has been poor to outright displeasure, with some staff leaving rather than learn the new system Pros I would say the only real benefit is that we have all our facilities on the same system and everything is there when we go to different departments Cons It is supposed to be easy to use, but it really isn't. As a patient i found my Stress test that was ordered was not ordered. As an IT person not being able to resolve issues myself and relying on a poor tier support system was onerous. 5 days to add a new printer after one failed. WHY? Alternatives considered [TruBridge](https://www.capterra.com/p/210340/TruBridge/) Reason for choosing Oracle Health Ambulatory Suite Was not of my choosing and had it been a trial basis i would have said thanks but no thanks Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Np Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Just okay" July 1, 2019 4.0 Pros the shortcuts were pretty cool with power chart. Cons I used to use Power chart daily for my emr. It was okay. It wasn’t as user friendly as I would want. Too many clicks were involved. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Team Coordinator Pharmaceuticals Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Power chart" February 13, 2019 3.0 Pros I like the ability to have all patient information for all doctors throughout the system in one location Cons What I liked least about Powerchart is that the system runs extremely slow Review Source OC Omasiel C. Nurse Practitioner Mental Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Less complicated" July 14, 2022 3.0 I will rate this software as 5 out of 10. Pros This software is very basic for charting/documenting clients information. Cons This software does not have many features while charting/documenting. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer PA-C Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "PowerChart Review" April 12, 2019 4.0 Pros I like that PowerChart is easy to navigate and customize depending on the user. The customer support is always a phone call away if you need them. You are able to be efficient in your work if you know where things are located. Cons I dislike that sometimes errors can pop up on the screen when they aren't supposed to and at my institution, the application can crash frequently. I also believe that the application could be updated and the look of the application looks a bit outdated. It is an otherwise good app. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Registered Nurse Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Not a fan" August 8, 2019 3.0 Pros This software is functional but time consuming to get the hang of. Cons This software takes forever to learn and even after having used it for a year and a half I still think, where did I chart that one tiny detail that one time? It's just not as intuitive as other software I've used. In others I felt like it prompted me to fill out and chart on a patient using a checklist. This one you just have to hope you remembered you charted everything and am commonly triple checking before leaving for the day. Review Source RM Rachael M. Resident Physician Medical Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Cerner as EMR" June 8, 2019 4.0 Overall, it is a pretty intuitive EMR. It was easy to adapt to. It covers all the important aspects an EMR should have. Pros I like the note templates it provides, and that it allows you to create your own personal templates and smart phrases. The medication reconciliation feature is also helpful especially for admissions. Cons I wish some features were easier to use including patient assessments and I's and O's.
