Vector EHS Management Erfahrungen

Keeping the Children Safe...and Managed

Kommentare: Overall, I was really happy with the overall experience that I had while using Vector. My school system moved on fairly quickly but I wish we would move back to it.

Vorteile:

The positive aspects of Vector (when used in a school atmosphere) is that it is very user-friendly and the data that Vector provides is quite in-depth. The data is easily manageable but still provides enough insight to be usable.

Nachteile:

There aren't too many cons about using Vector as a managing service for schools (which, again, is how I used the program). The price was considerable but, at the end of the day, I do not know if you are going to be able to find a service that is cheaper that provides a solid user interface or one that collects the data is as an effective way.

Basic user friendly software.

Kommentare: So far a good software suite. We've been using it for over a year now and are still finding new ways to leverage the system to benefit our programs

Vorteile:

Great software package containing the 'frequent flyers' of HSE Management. The Industrial Hygiene section is a great feature that is not commonly found in other solutions. Scheduling tasks and events helps keep the HSE team on track. Easy implementation

Nachteile:

No visual representation of risk assessment process Metric dashboards are not easy to customize. Notifications could be cleaned up a bit. No SDS Management element

Deceptive - Waste of time and money

Kommentare: Customer support follows a script, which means they have no idea how the software actually works. Their development team seems to be overseas and thrid-party, so when needing answers or assistance on customization or glitches in their system, no one can assist. We spent a lot of time and money on setting up the system and creating forms within the modules, which put us over budget for this project. Industry Safe is set up to require the user to pay extra for any additional assistance, which is deceptive and unethical. I would not recommend this platform to anyone.

Vorteile:

I was sold on the "idea" of this software.

Nachteile:

Set up time was long and costly. There were several glitches in their system that prevented us from using and updating forms in a timely manner. The sales team lied about the available features. After purchasing the software, I was told that vehicle and equipment info could be entered, but no reports could be generated because they "currently do not have that feature." Had I been told the truth prior to purchase, I would not have purchased a 1-year subscription. Other features that we have used like the JSA, Observations, and Inspections have been used, but the analytics have not been fully functional. What we ended up with is a platform that stores data but cannot run a report to show me anything of substance. We are not renewing our subscription and are trying to transfer our data to another platform. However, Industry Safe is not allowing us to pull our complete data. They said if that were possible, there would be a fee for each form - be we can always print out each form we ever created!

Excellent Product

Kommentare: Using Industry Safe has created efficiencies that have allowed me to shift my focus a bit during the Pandemic. I would not have been able to manage it all with out it.

Vorteile:

The program is very easy to use and is integral in creating our culture of Safety.

Nachteile:

We do have to import our hours from our payroll system. I would like to see this feature be a bit more seamless.

Review of Industry Safe Software

Kommentare: This product allows for seamless Incident Reporting with ease of use for my end users. I also like the way the software integrates our OSHA and DOT reporting to ensure we are asking the correct questions and documenting accordingy.

Vorteile:

The features I like the most are the ability to customize almost all forms to suit our needs. Since our business is an amalgam of different business types, it is often difficult to find a product to suit our needs. This ability has made the software work for us, with minimum effort. I also like that the OSHA and DOT forms are auto generated. This makes reporting easy, and not tedious.

Nachteile:

Reporting can be somewhat confusing to use. While I really like and appreciate that you can report on all fields, it would be helpful to have a few more "basic" built in reports. I would also like to see more tutorials written for utilizing the reporting section of this product. I would also like to see multi-select fields on a form for even more data. This would help collect all the applicable info needed.

We are very impressed with the software, the costs and with the support we have received

Kommentare: We are going live with the Observation and Home modules on January 4th 2016 and have a plan scheduled to implement the JSA, Incidents, Hazards, Inspections, Training, & Corrective Action modules by the end of the third quarter 2016. We initially purchased IndustrySafe in the fall of 2014 but with management and process changes we have made multiple changes in how we will use IndustrySafe. Through this the IndustrySafe team has been incredibly patient and supportive of these changes. We are excited about the product and certain this software will help drive us to our Safety Mission of Zero Incidents!
Josh has been an incredible resource for us in making sure we are using the modules to the fullest and using them in the most productive way for OPPD. Josh's response and the response of his team couldn't be better. I have had to work with other support teams with other vendors in the past and they do not come close to the support we get from IndustrySafe.
My only con, and I am not sure I would call it a con, would be with reporting. I like that we can get just about everything we need out of the log reports but I am not particularly fond of the format and the fact that it is a bit complicated to get summary reports. I am currently working with trying to get some reporting out of our Management Observation checklist but I think because it is built on the alternate form I get no results from the canned reports. I think this is something we can work through but it will take some time to get the reports built. We also have the option of exporting the data to our data warehouse where we can build Cognos reports.
Thank you so much for all of your support. We look forward to a long relationship with you all!

Centralized safety management software. One place for everything safety.

Kommentare: This gave us a professional safety management system which combined numerous documents, systems, and other legacy methods into one standardized operating system. A truly useful tool.

Vorteile:

Prior to having this software, our safety system was a confluence of excel sheets, word documents, and various files strewn across the company network. It was somewhat organized, somewhat chaotic. We used one system for recording observations, word documents and paper for recording training, and we didn't really have any form of "safety dashboard." This software gives us a platform to manage all of that in one place. observations, incidents, near miss data, training records, ect etc etc... It's all in one place and can be accessed at any time. Reporting becomes professional and concise. It'a a great tool and a must have for professional safety management.

Nachteile:

The only con is that we didn't have it earlier. We went for years managing paper and disorder. The system itself does what it's designed to do.

IndustrySafe

Vorteile:

A comprehensive and cost-effective software for businesses to track, manage, and comply with health and safety requirements.

Nachteile:

If a module is not used then the price paid has no value such as the hazards module. If our business has a hazard reported we immediately go to the corrective action.

Follow Through on Their Words

Vorteile:

The functionality of the software makes it easy to use. The steps are very intuitive, and can be easily taught to someone.

Nachteile:

We are disappointed that only one person can be assigned to a Division.

Roche Indy

Kommentare: We have been thrilled with IndustrySafe. Mike Dowhy has been exceptional in his support. With his help, we have been able to customize the product to meet multiple business needs. It is amazingly user friendly and easy to modify ourselves. Our business areas are happy with the reports we are now able to generate and the trending we can now do. It is an exceptional value for the costs. We are looking to add modules in the future to track and trend more data.

Review

Kommentare: Benefits: better understanding of trends and overall patterns in our recording of claims. Helps when asked to supply statistics and create reports for upper managemnt.

Vorteile:

Having the management input the initial report and be able to attach back up is key. They don't have to print out a report, hand write it, scan and send it in any more. Once they have input the report, an alert is sent to the person handling the claims process as well as any other designated management personnel.

Nachteile:

Some of the labeling is confusing - the flag that something is OSHA recordable should disappear if a claim has been denied or found not to be work related after all.

SEPTA Review.

Kommentare: Overall, I've found it to be very useful in organizing our reporting structure.

Vorteile:

The ease of use and the dashboard to assist us in keeping track of our investigations.

Nachteile:

The reports feature, the graphics are entry level at best. Our internal metrics provide better graphics for our tracking and reporting of key metrics.

Vector EHS Management

Vorteile:

The software provided great insight into the statistics and patterns that usually surround incidents, it has made creating reports very easy. The software is user friendly and doesn't have many issues while in operation. Aided in revolutionizing our Saftey protocols and records by facilitating the safe keeping of all records in one place

Nachteile:

No major issues have been experienced with the software so far.

Nice to have 1 software for all safety tracking and initiatives within the company

Kommentare: Detailed, centralized incidents tracking, claims management solutions, more collaboration with colleagues and safety officials creating a safer workplace

Vorteile:

What I liked most was the dashboard showing you everything you need to know being tracked safety wise within your organization, the incidents tracking and claims monitoring portions of the software were particularly impressive.

Nachteile:

A bit cumbersome at times in terms of implementation and customization of the platform. A natural learning curve getting everyone up to speed on the software and utilizing it on a day in day out basis

Recomendable

Kommentare: Buenas ventajas de gestion y resolución de incidencias

Vorteile:

Su agilidad en la gestión de incidencias

Nachteile:

Su peso quizas como software pero por lo demas es muy bueno en el dia a dia

IndustrySafe

Vorteile:

The IndustrySafe’s Claims module businesses can create different types of claims including worker’s compensation, property damage, and auto claims and link them to one report.

Nachteile:

The price can get high the higher the number of users but the base plan includes about 8 different sections.

This software has significantly enhanced our safety management systems.

Kommentare: +East of use, including set-up, accessing information, reports, and making changes.
+Dashboard is excellent.
+ Incident reporting and tracking module is excellent.
+Training module is good and we will be conducting an additional review of the module to ensure we are using all functionality.
+Corrective actions and inspection modules are very good minus a few suggestions submitted during the verbal review.
- Hazards module is not used and for our purposes, does not provide any value. If hazards are reported in our organization, we immediately step to corrective action.

Review of Industry Safe - meets our requirements

Kommentare: Used primarily to record safety related incidents, notify relevant personnel of those incidents and track the implementation and close out of corrective actions. Only issue we have regularly is that incidents haven't closed out fully when we think they have. We regularly get messages to state "You have 34 corrective actions open" and we don't seem to be able to find hem or close them out.

wonderful

Kommentare: it help me in my reporting, my investigations and when training is due

Vorteile:

Easy to work with, the support team is great, reasonably priced, has lots of features i use and that is helpful to me. Now I can download my Osha information and send to them. Customer rep is great never seems to get aggravated with me. This is a great software for our safety program.

Kommentare: Our company has been using Industry Safe for about 8 years now and it is a wonderful product. Easy to use! Tracking and reports are a breeze. The software is well-maintained and continuously updated. Customer service is excellent; staff is very knowledgeable and responds quickly.

I have no issues with this software. It is wonderful.
