I am looking forward to the new workflows.

What is most valuable?

We are a new customer, still implementing. The implementing staff has been very friendly.

How has it helped my organization?

I am looking forward to the new workflows.

What needs improvement?

More explanations on the required spreadsheets for implementation; explanation of each field in the spreadsheet.

We are still in the implementation stages.  There are several spreadsheets that we use to upload info into ACT.  When we are having our info calls, they touch base on each of the columns and give examples of what that column represents or what you are looking for in this column.  But, when we go to enter this info in, it become a foreign language and we are left feeling frustrated.  We have to skip those columns and ask again what they are for.   It would be nice if when we go to fill out these fields that we could hover over the column header and read a description what you are wanting in that column.    Also, if 85% of your clients come from ADP, why not have a more customized spreadsheet for ADP rather than a generic spreadsheet?   We were discussing Data conversion and some of the columns came over on the ADP dump and some didn’t.  Making a spreadsheet for ADP would give you the option of saying at the top of the column that this comes over from ADP data conversion and not needed unless you want to change that info.  Honestly, why isn’t it assumed that everything in your current system is accurate?  I just adds confusion to the data conversion saying you can add this field and change it if it’s not accurate in your current system.

For how long have I used the solution?

We are not using it yet, July 1.
