Overall they are a fantastic company to work with and we are grateful to have found a platform that consolidated four previous platforms into one.
Pros
We really enjoy the customization capabilities of the software that afford us the ability to adapt our workflow to the system very easily. The ability to have certain actions trigger automated results is key in managing our process. We also loved the implementation process and the highly skilled personnel at Accessplanit who are with us every step of the way
Cons
There are some features missing from the functionality that we need for our process to run smoothly. The team has a very robust product feature rollout plan so we expect these to come out soon!

Communication could be improved. When they identify a fault, sometimes we are left to find this our ourselves.
Overall, the system is good. But as we have quite a complicated range of products in our business it is not as easy to apply the system to this.
Pros
The ability to have a tidy database where all users/companies are assigned to groups.
Cons
Over the three years plus that we have had the software, our Account Manager has been great. However, I have mixed reviews regarding customer support. Whilst always very prompt to respond, sometimes it seems that they do not know the system very well.
Response from accessplanit
Thank you for your review. We're so glad that you are finding it useful to keep your databases tidy and up-to-date. As regards customer support, we can assure you that all the feedback we get is distributed internally and used to make improvements to our service.

Perfect for organisations who require a first class helpdesk
Reviewed on 2024/06/11
Pros
Access PlanIT has supported our team to implement the software for use for booking 300+ courses, roughly 80 per term supporting 1500 students + per year. This has benefitted every type of person in our organisation. E.g. the students have benefitted from having a student portal and more frequent e-mail communications and course reminders, as well as being to access their course materials easily. Our trainers have benefitted from being easily able to access student information including special requirements to be auto pulled through to their registers which we set up a custom field for. The trainers can share documents with students and send out attendance certificates with one tick of a box and download their sign-in sheets with one click. The administrative team have benefitted from the automated e-mails which include following up on 'No Attend' students and sending out 'Expressions of Interest' and 'Enrolment confirmations', 'feedback surveys', and many more. My role is as a trainer for the College however, with no prior experience I took on the role of project manager who embedded Access PlanIT into our College. I have appreciated the support from the helpdesk and ticketing help system that in place to manage your questions and ideas and help problem-solves issues as they arise. The staff on the helpdesk know their software inside and out and have great suggestions and get back to you in a timely manner. The customer service is first-class. I would have really struggled without the helpdesk. I was never made to feel silly for asking a question and the team did not use technical jargon that baffled me. They respond to emails within a day, often within the hour. 5* customer service and support.
Cons
It is a very long journey to set-up, tailor the features for our use and implement across the team. It took us well over 18 months+ but bear in mind in our organisation we did not have an I.T expert so this might be much quicker for teams who have a person with prior knowledge/skills or have been through the process before. We also only had someone able to work on it part-time. Also we have staff sickness and turnover which all impacted our set-up time. But this is worth thinking about if it applies to you as the set-up and embedding of the software might be a longer process than you imagine. However once it is set-up it is wonderful and every person in every job position in your organisation will benefit.

We have been using Accessplanit for around 8/9 years now and have been well managed from the start. The platform has changed significantly during our time but all for the better. I would happily recommend this software to anyone looking to manage their training courses. It really has made my job easier!
Pros
The company strive to make the platform even more user friendly and innovative and are continuously evolving the system.
The support team are approachable, contactable and always happy to help.
The flexibility in automations the system offers has really changed the way my team work and made our jobs significantly easier as well as improved communication with our customers. We spend much less time on basic admin and communication tasks and far more on the tasks which give our clients a more human experience.
Cons
Some of the backend work is occasionally complex for some members of my team and requires a bit more knowledge than common administrative practises, that being said the Accessplanit team is there to offer support.

Overall, the experience has been good. It is straightforward and manageable.
Pros
We have to deal with a lot of event bookings when we are working, including dealing with cancellations, registrations, certifications, booking people onto courses- sometimes multiple people etc.
You do have to learn how to do this but once you learn, it becomes easy to navigate and makes our jobs easier.
It also provides satisfaction for the customer.
Cons
It can sometimes be a bit slow when you are using it too much.

Very smooth - access to the sand box was given a few weeks back and we've been encouraged to play around with it and find our way round the system. The 3 conference calls/webinars I've sat in on have been good but are probably a bit too content-heave for 90 minute sessions - having less content in the allocated time would work better as we skipped a few exercises due to time constraints.
Pros
The team have built exactly what we've asked for so accessplanit will allow us to move away from 3 different systems we currently use and use one streamlined provider with everything all in the same place which is not only far more convenient but will also save so much time!
Cons
I've only played around in the sand box so far, not the real system so I'm not really in the best position to judge this and critique it negatively so far.

Pros
I love that since switching to Accessplanit, there is no need to go to 5 or 6 other programs/documents to get a training booking done. Much better to have everything in one place.
Cons
Not a lot of help functionality. You have to be told what to do instead of having an online manual.

We are still in the first few weeks since going live and the team are still getting used to the system. Implementation has taken longer than I had anticipated but I hadn't had any previous experience of such implementation. Overall the support from the company has been good and the team at Accessplanit have been responsive and the system will bring efficiencies to our service
Pros
We invested in Accessplanit because as our training provision expanded we needed to be able to manage bookings efficiently on a larger scale. One of the key features important to us is the automated functions such as email sending links to surveys, links to training and certificates all of which had to be done manually previously
Cons
Users do not have to pay for training, our training is free at the point of delivery yet the payment page could not be removed for us. Setting up surveys is clunky and takes a lot longer than through MS forms which is what we have used previously. The surveys don't look very professional either- they look quite outdated and presentation could be improved greatly

For a small company AP were very effective in getting us up and running quickly with this software, and good at coaching us through the initial set-up. We had a difficult transition period when the legacy system was switched to the new system, but they were eventually able to give us the support we needed. AP have some very useful hints, tips and 'help' information and are fairly good at letting us know about software releases and glitches.
Pros
It has extended our automated functionality, allowing us to communicate more efficiently with our customers and save valuable administrative time
Cons
Have still not got the hang of the easiest way to achieve financial reporting for my company - the finance data slicing could be improved
Integration with other systems has not worked so far

We took over a business that was using Accessplanit and had to quickly get to grips with using it. The support was great and we soon worked out the basics. It is reliable and flexible and does what we need it to. A huge improvement on spreadsheets, which is what we relied on before. We have since added on additional functionality and the team was really helpful, showing what we could do and helping set it up so it provided the functionality we wanted.
Pros
