But the lack of speed really irks me. Pros I like the alerts and the platform of finding information that I need on a daily basis. Cons The software is SLOW. I could be much more productive if the SW moved faster. It takes about 2 minutes to open and close ONE LOAN. I work on at least 12 loans per day... time vampire on that scope.

Controller Banking ### "Robust Mortgage LOS" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 3.0 3.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 December 18, 2024 My overall experience with Encompass is positive. I did take admin classes so I could properly add/remove loan programs, user profiles and set business rules. All of our users became very comfortable with the functionality of the program. Several employees that left our company have shared with me that they missed the functionality of this program. Pros Encompass is a robust mortgage software with a lot of robust features and solutions for mortgage bankers. I would consider it the industry standard platform for this business sector. Everything is customizable, including the permissions of each type of user and many functions can be done from directly within the system. I am in accounting, and I heavily utilized their reporting functions which I found to be user friendly and extremely robust. Yo Cons Set up and administration of Encompass is not for most users. Many companies will either hire a consultant that specializes in administration of Encompass, or the will hire and inside Encompass Administrator. Fortunately, they do provided training if you would like someone from within your organization to take on this role. The cost is also high. I personally felt that more admin services could be included at this price point. Switched from [Calyx Point](https://www.capterra.com/p/73554/Calyx-Point/) When we transitioned from a mortgage broker to a mortgage banker we required a robust system that supported banking and tracked shipping/funding functions.

HM Henry M. Technical Support Analyst Financial Services ### "Encompass Review" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 July 25, 2024 Once you get the hang of Encompass and explore its nooks and crannies, it becomes a powerful tool in the loan processing business. Initially, the interface felt overwhelming, but over time I found it intuitive and incredibly useful. Its seamless integration with third-party services and real-time updates have streamlined our workflow significantly. While there is a learning curve and occasional slowness, the customizable workflows and comprehensive features have made it essential to our operations, boosting efficiency and improving compliance. Pros Comprehensive toolset Seamless third-party integrations User-friendly interface Efficient document management Real-time updates and tracking Customizable workflows Strong compliance support Cons Can be slow at times Steep learning curve for new users Occasional interface complexity High cost for small businesses Requires frequent updates Limited mobile functionality Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

Loan Store Real Estate ### "My Expert Review Using Encompass for 10 Years" 3.0 Overall Rating 3.0 3.0 Ease of Use 3.0 3.0 Features 3.0 3.0 Customer Service 4.0 4.0 Likelihood to Recommend 5/10 March 4, 2024 Encompass is a software many people would use, but as you want to grow and expand your team, it becomes a headache. It is not as efficient to use as other products, it is not web based, and is not team oriented or user friendly. Pros Their support team regarding technical support with the software, they were extremely knoledgable. Cons It is using an outdated source code, outdated User Interface, expensive product that is not competitive in its pricing, lack of ease with integrating third party software. Switched from [Calyx Point](https://www.capterra.com/p/73554/Calyx-Point/) To aquire a more ease-of-use system that was more capable for my line of work.

It was very easy to learn and was effective in managing loan information. I'm sure I will see Encompass again in my future shortly. Pros This software is very user friendly. It's able to hold TONS of information and organize it all into one place. The pipeline is very easy to navigate. It's clearly shown what is what. I loved using this software while in my internship, I really learned a great deal. Cons The one thing I didn't like about it is the visual aspect. It kind of just looks outdated and old.

Michael M. loan consultant Financial Services ### "Robust and 2nd to none. the long standing standard" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 May 15, 2022 overall, this is the tried and true platform that overall has a set of features that puts it ahead of the competition. Pros the document management and the dashboard customization are probably the biggest features that stand out on the platform Cons if you don't save often enough, you lose your work - highly annoying. it does not have integrated income calculation worksheets. I realize this changes often, but it seems that integrated income calculations would be a great addition since it is used daily.

Mortgage Loan Processor Financial Services ### "Don't expect to learn this software quickly" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 3.0 3.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 3.0 3.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 February 15, 2022 I received the trial version of this software back in 2000, while I was using a very user friendly software that this software has put them almost out of business. I was so excited about this software when I was running my own small business but I couldn't even get anyone to tell me how much it cost because they wouldn't talk to me, in addition, it hadn't been fully released just yet. I am a mortgage loan processor. I have worked for companies that are lenders and brokers, plus ran my own small company. I have worked for approximately 5 mortgage companies, but only one of the 5 had the assets and server to run it. In addition, server size and assets are not the only requirements to run this software, you need in house admins that have a lot of experience with this software. Pros What I like most about this software it has the ability to do anything you set up for it to do but with a high price and very educated admin needed. Cons The price of this software is not even available publicly and what is required to run this software is very much hidden from the public. Switched from [Calyx Point](https://www.capterra.com/p/73554/Calyx-Point/) I did not intentionally switch, I only switched because I had to take a full time W2 position at a mortgage company. Only one of the five mortgage companies I worked for could afford this product. Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

AU Anonymous User Mortgage Loan Originator Banking ### "Needed but Not User Friendly" 2.0 Overall Rating 2.0 2.0 Ease of Use 1.0 1.0 Features 2.0 2.0 Customer Service 3.0 3.0 Likelihood to Recommend 3/10 August 27, 2021 Its probably the best it gets but unfortunately noone has yet to do it better. Saddening to think we can so so many things in Home Loan Origination that make it easy on the consumer yet lack so severely in the development of a user-friendly LOS system. Pros Encompass is probably the best LOS system out there but that's also the problem. It has a lot of features, so many in fact that it makes it even more difficult to use. You "can" do just about anything in Encompass in regards to Loan Origination but it is not easy to learn and very cumbersome to use. Cons Too busy. Too much like I'm sitting at a 1985 version of Apple IIe computer. It's not very user friendly and doe not have near the helpful help buttons that it needs to quickly explain the thousands of different radio buttons and boxes that it offers. Sure, you can call their "help desk" number or watch their training videos, but have you ever had to watch a training video for Amazon? eBay? Google? - Get my point?
