Journyx Customized - We couldn't live without it!

Pros

  • The strengths are real time data capture for our projects.
  • Helps our department with our clinical trials for the budgeting process (we capture time per task).
  • Allows our department to justify additional hires.

Cons

  • We have customized our software to our specific needs and feel our support with the Journyx staff was so valuable. They worked with us to design the system we need to provide the data we needed.

Return on Investment

  • We have been able to add additional positions within our department from the data captured by the Journyx system.
  • We are now able to provide accurate budgetary costs for our clinical trials. We found we had not been accurate on calculating "study start up" time for our clinical research coordinators. By tracking time in Journyx we were able to increase the study dollars to the sponsor based on our data

Jouryx is great for time management

Pros

  • Easy input screen for the daily users.
  • Friendly email reminder to complete time sheets daily.
  • Reporting capabilities are endless.

Cons

  • Leave management ability can be improved to offer more functions and reporting.
  • Administration function of adding new clients can be difficult and time consuming.
  • Maybe at times too much customization. It is difficult to administrate all the activities and tasks if we have future changes.

Return on Investment

  • Our secondary use of the time data would be for department/employee benchmarking. The data is used to increase employee efficiency.
  • We also are able to give employee feedback on improved completion time on new employees. I make sure employee training was successful.
  • Return on investment did not occur as we use Journyx as a management tool and for financial cost reporting.

Usability

Journyx makes OMB Super Circular compliance a breeze for time and effort reporting.

Pros

  • Product is customized for our particular non-profit type.
  • Great customer service.
  • Reasonably priced.
  • Easy access via internet.

Cons

  • Sometimes drop downs are slow to load at peak times - I know they have been working on this.

Return on Investment

  • Easier and more efficient cost fund allocation.
  • Requires employee time reporting on activity, cost center and other custom fields synced with payroll so records are submitted, reviewed and approved every two weeks.
  • Funders are confident in our ability to appropriately allocate funds.

Journyx review

Pros

  • Reporting of time - I know when I pull reports for each employee/contractor that I will have information at the touch of my fingertips.
  • Creating new users - is very easy.
  • Entering time - is easy for even the first time user

Cons

  • I run the same report each month pulling different users for 30+ variances. It would be nice to be able to save those so that I do not have to recreate them each month.
  • Have all of the information fit on the screen so that fields that are needed are not carried over past the viewing area.

Return on Investment

  • Allowing for time and reporting to be easy to navigate
  • Ease of entering time allows for employees/contractors to enter in their time
