May 23, 2023

5.0

Stems One and Comply One are great platforms, value for money, and the customer support is second to none.

Pros

Some of the positives with Stems is the friendly and professional customer support, nothing is too much trouble and they are always prompt in their response to assist and support when needed. Also the ability to utilise and customise Stems to suit the needs of your organisation.

Cons

Is a little clunky and involved in some areas, of which I believe partly contributes to Users shying away from it, particularly in our type of business, an SME Jobbing Shop where the leadership are skilled tradespersons and not too handy with the use of computers/technology.

Alternatives considered

[myosh Safety Management Software](https://www.capterra.com/p/138049/myosh-Safety-Management-Software/)

Reason for choosing Stems

Value for money, not sold off in modules giving you the choice to make use of the platform to best suit the needs of the organisation, and the professionalism and friendly/caring nature of the Stems team (not sales people).

Hi Shane, thank you very much for your review of Stems and positive feedback. We do our best to make sure we provide the best support & service, and of course, we are working hard on making Stems easier to use in those clunky sections, which we agree, needs to be addressed. Thank you from the Stems team!

### "Galati Group general review"

September 12, 2022

5.0

Overall I enjoy STEMS. I have reached out to the support team to advise that I require further training to take full advantage of the platform however my availability has been the issue to date. the STEMS team are ready when I am. I have a personal frustration because the platform is paid per user we have limited users on the program so I do have to double up a lot of my work so that other parts of the business can get a copy. Again, this is an internal issue. I would also like further training on whether some of our existing programs can be integrated with STEMS.

Pros

I feel we are still only scratching the surface of the capability of the STEMS program. Currently we use the Injury Management section the most. I like how the information is stored and is easy access. The injury reporting enables an easy TRIFR report process. We are also storing our training documents but have only touched on this. I would like to have a notation section under the employee folder to notate when employee's are attending training sessions. This may be available.

Cons

Sometimes there is a lot of information to upload when an injury first takes place. The option to do a bulk upload would assist greatly! Currently each file needs to be uploaded individually.

Reason for choosing Stems

Apologies, the STEMS system was chosen prior to me starting and previous team members have since left the business.

September 19, 2022

Hi Natasha, thank you very much for your feedback! Great to hear it is working out well for the business and your team! On the subject of bulk uploading files in the Injury section, this can be submitted as a suggestion for future development. I will create this for you and you will receive an email to track it. On the subject of integrating with your other applications, this can be done via our APIs. Contact us via support if you would like assistance on this. Thanks again for your feedback!

### "Stems overall"

July 7, 2022

3.0

Its a document register we use, I am sure there is a lot more things we could use it for. But dont know how to use them. Perhaps a quick weekly tool tip could pop up when you first log in to show how to use certain things

Pros

I can see a employee's training, licenses and all tabs for that person. I like the new update of dragging documents directing for attaching

Cons

I dont like I cant see archived records anymore. I would like our litmos system to be able to communicate with STEMS so that it will attach training records directing to a profile.

Reason for choosing Stems

The company went with this system before I started here

Response from Stems Solutions

July 26, 2022

Hi Joanne, Thanks very much for your feedback. On the subject you raised about archived records, that will be your permissions someone has set for you. On the other subject of Litmos integration with Stems, that is also possible using our APIs. We can contact you if you like to discuss these items you have raised. Thanks again for your positive feedback and yes we pride ourselves on providing very good and prompt support! Thanks.

October 20, 2023

5.0

Very positive. It has helped us acheive complaince.

Pros

The single best feature about STEMS is the quality of their service. You can email and get a response withing minutes or speak with \[sensitive content hidden\] and senior decision makers in the business. This highly responsive service and honesty is unparalleled by other offerings.

Cons

The ability to mark an investigations as confidential.

### "A reliable, solid system devoid of glitches."

February 10, 2023

4.0

Event management, action recording and tracking are the main functions we use, would like to use more and this will happen when we integrate it with other platforms we use.

Pros

Excellent customer support and feedback. STEMs regularly reviews feedback from clients and work on continuous improvement of its functionality and use.

Cons

Set reporting options gives insufficient analysis opportunities.

### "Fantastic and easy to use intranet site for all training, safety, and incident reporting needs"

February 16, 2023

5.0

This is a wonderful product and the integration between Comply One, Stems, and LMS One is fantastic

Pros

The product is easy to use and the support we get from Stems (especially \[sensitive content hidden\]) is fantastic :)

Cons

I would love to see an organisational chart feature where it shows the organisational chart in full and we are able to click on each depart and it shows all workers from senior management to workers

### "Onboarding with STEMS software"

October 24, 2023

5.0

To date the experience has been a positive one. There is a lot to learn when engaging with the STEMS three software modules, however you become aware of common functionality and process and overal approach with all three modules when you start using them.

Pros

The dashboard features are a great visual impact and create a quick oversight on Risk and Compliance related features

Cons

The LMS One software package and creating surveys. The way in which surveys are created and designed could be improved to be a more structured process

October 26, 2023

Hi Tony, thank you very much for your review of Stems and positive feedback. We do our best to make sure we provide the best support & service. On the subject of the Surveys section in LMS One, if you haven't done so already, could you please send details to support on what you need improved so that we can follow this up for sure. Cheers. Thank you from the Stems team!

### "STEMS in a mid sized Drilling Company work well."

September 29, 2022

5.0

STEMS meets our needs, is easy to use and is good value for money.

Pros

STEMS has a clean and easy to access interface. It is highly customisable to our needs. A lot of changes/customisation can be made by ourselves without third parties involved. The control over permissions and access is excellent and can be very specific. Logging of training is easy . The reporting functions meets all our needs.

Cons

A user level interface to import data from other data bases is missing.

July 27, 2022

4.0

This is a great product for any business to have. Take the time to set it up correctly and the benefits will role from there.

Pros

STEMS software is easy to use and understand. As it is linked across many fields within the software tracking incidents, training and assets is made a lot easier.

Cons

Interaction compatibility with external products and report optimisation.

September 29, 2022

5.0

Increased safety management (incident reporting, identifying trends, maintaining training records).

Pros

Quite user friendly, logical, great support guides, ease of flow between sections, customizable and opportunity for development.

Cons

Forms could be more customizable, search feature is not very broad, if text in search bar does not match description 100% item will not show.

### "Excellent System"

February 12, 2023

5.0

I really enjoy using and populating this system. it's used daily and helps with keeping staff on track with training and license compliance.

Pros

How simply and self-managed this system is. And Super-fast customer service.

Cons

Linking certificates to training. Maybe a drag and drop option, would make it easier.

Reason for choosing Stems

Because it was a familiar system, that has improved it's features and continues to be simple and easy to use.

March 14, 2023

4.0

Pros

The incident management features make investigating incidents much easier, the dashboards and registers provide an easy to view overall snapshot of our company's safety performance and its an all round great software solution.

Cons

Certain form building processes are counterintuitive so take awhile to get used to, but anytime we get stuck Stems support are able to assist almost immediately, they are also very quick to adapt the software if we have suggestions on improving efficiency or useability.

Overall decent user experience

Pros

Captures quite a bit of information. All cloud and web based, no software install

### "Stems Review "

November 7, 2022

4.0

Overall very happy. As a small business with high end customers, who expect us to maintain and provide excellent reporting and records, it meets our requirements very well - without the huge cost of similar software that we investigated prior to choosing Stems.

Pros

Training & Customer Support provided has been excellent. Very quick and efficient to resolve any problems

Cons

Software can be a little challenging to move around in and remember the step to complete tasks, however this is probably due to not enough time (on our part) being allocated to the software.

Reason for choosing Stems

Cost, plus they understood our small business needs, servicing large high end customers. Initial research and discussions with them have since proven that they deliver what they promise and we have been very happy with support and customer service.

July 4, 2022

4.0

Amazing customer service and fast responses and help whenever we need it.

Pros

The auditor loves how we can just bring up all incidents, the investigations and the outcomes/actions from them and it helps us manage our ISO accreditations.

Cons

If you move from one page to the next when entering an incident without saving all the entry is deleted - an auto save when you went to the next page would be helpful.

May 19, 2023

Pros

February 10, 2023

4.0

Pros

The package is easy to use and has a lot for the price. It allows a fair amount of customisation that some other more expensive packages do not have. The user interface flows well and the form builder in Comply One is not difficult to master.

Cons

There are some limits to the customisation and features available. I am used to more expensive / larger packages that had report builders and/or the ability to save multiple custom views that could be set up and saved for reporting.
