Overall, I think Verso is a solid choice if you can't afford to spend more on an ILS. But there will be quirks and bugs, so you will want to have one or two people on staff who are comfortable with technology and poking around to figure out what is going on and how to make your way around issues.

Pros

Verso, typically, has enough functions for us to get by based on the budget we have (as a small rural library) for an ILS. Many of our peer libraries use Verso also and it is one of the better options at its price point. We can do all of the basic processes we need to at the circulation desk and keeping our catalog up to date and searchable is relatively easy. Their support team is generally pretty good at communications and answering any questions.

Cons

Verso has minor quirks that we eventually figure out workarounds for but, really, we shouldn't need to do that. And every time there is a version upgrade there are far too many bugs to even deal with for the first week or two which can make the entire process problematic when it comes to customer service and efficiency.

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.

I have worked with many ILS and software vendors over the last 20 years, including SirsiDynix, EOS International, SydneyPLUS, Inmagic, CuadraStar, Microsoft, Auto-Graphics and Cisco Systems. I find that the Auto-Graphics VERSO ILS is feature-rich and the best value for small to mid-size public libraries in the market today.
