## Reviews

### "It's Great" — 4.0/5

> **Daniel** | *19 July 2019* | Law Enforcement Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We have been using VCS (POSS) for several years. The migration to web has been bumpy but overall extremely positive and necessary. Their support staff is fantastic and they continue to improve the software.
> 
> **Cons**: Some features (shift bid module for example) are initially built according to their specifications. For example, officers are given a time limit for selecting a shift. If they don't select a shift within the time frame, they are skipped. There is no way to turn this off. My issue with this is if an officer is busy on an active case and is unable to select his/her shift in the time frame, they should not be skipped. There is no way to change this. Typically after enough agencies complain, they will incorporate the change, however an option like this should be included from the start.
> 
> Overall my experience with VCS has been more than excellent.

### "10 year User of VCS (POSS)" — 4.0/5

> **Jeff** | *18 March 2019* | Law Enforcement Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The software is very customizable and has been very accurate payroll product for our department. We use most features of the software and have been very pleased overall. The continued updates VCS provides are making the product better and better. We love the versatility of product and the various modules that tie into payroll.
> 
> **Cons**: The general customer service options have been responsive. With that said, I found that the follow through has sometimes been lacking. As an example, we have found some inaccurate reporting issues with some reports. Customer service was initially responsive and agreed that there is an issue, but several months and counting, I have not heard any update and the issue has not been resolved.
> 
> We have become much more accurate and have saved a tremendous amount of time processing payroll.

### "Pure Garbage" — 1.0/5

> **Tech** | *26 September 2016* | Computer Networking | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Cons**: Poorly written software, terrible tech support
> 
> Support is minimal at best.  Poorly written software.   Upgrades are not numbered version-wise; named after the SEASONS\!   Expect lots of permission reversals after upgrades;  Bells and whistles sold don't work.   Don't expect to get any support when entire "team" is off at their seminars trying to sell this junk to prospective customers.   Our company had to withhold a payment to get their attention to address still un-addressed technical issues.

### "Great Employee Scheduling program" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *22 March 2019* | Law Enforcement Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love the ability to set up schedules for the various unit as far out as needed. The officers use the web based module to see overtime available, leave requests and approval as far as needed. Supervisor are able to ensure there is adequate staffing and never fall below minimum needs of the department.  Every change in the VCS Employee scheduling system is documented which is great for payroll audits of time sheets and leave taken .  Finally being able to run real time reports is best that are used to project overtime costs.
> 
> **Cons**: For updates of some screens require a lot more time to update such when you need to transfer an officer or employee to another unit. Or when schedules of the same unit have to be individually created.
> 
> VCS POSS (Police Officer Scheduling System) has been great for RPD. Overtime reporting for budget projections and expenses is a primary use.  Additionally, being able to capture detail categories that increase cost by pay period, quarter or annually has been the greatest bonus.

### "Great Scheduling Software" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *13 November 2019* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We use this software to manage the scheduling of Police personnel.  POSS gives us an overview of the schedule, who requested off, who is out sick, and what assignments they are on.  Very easy to use and deploy thanks to a great support team.
> 
> **Cons**: The only con that I can think of is that since we host our own server, as opposed to using the cloud solution, updates have to scheduled and manually installed by VCS instead of pushing it out automatically or providing an update via download.
> 
> Overall, we are very satisfied with the product as well as the customer service that we receive.
