The Reserve utility could use some adjustments. > > From the customer's perspective, this seems like a fairly small company, but we receive almost immediate and personal response for assistance in using the product, problems encountered and any software malfunctions. Requests and comments for improving the product to help with the way your library operates are often accommodated. (The customer would not necessarily receive such response and service from a large company.) ----- ### "superb customer service" — 3.0/5 > **Maryann** | *30 July 2019* | Civic & Social Organisation | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: This is our first experience with library software so we have nothing to compare to > > **Cons**: Many features missing that would be helpful and difficulty getting answers > > We recently lost our connection with RM and we were down or three weeks Your representative did everything he could to correct the problem and eventually he did We thought for a lot of time the problem was at our end but it was not. The fault lay with RM was extremely patient and helpful throughout the process ----- ### "Program Review" — 5.0/5 > **Joy** | *3 September 2020* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The program is easy to use even for a non-techie like me. There are still features that I am learning, but we use it every day. It is nice to have all our books listed in the same place. > > **Cons**: The directions are not always clear from the booklet as to how to do some things, but tech support has been helpful there. > > Our library is still using a card catalog and I like not having to use a typewriter to set up each card. The print option for cards is fabulous. ----- ### "Very powerful and useful tool" — 5.0/5 > **Linda** | *20 May 2021* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The basic functions of Resourcemate are easy to learn and easy to use. I like the flexibility of its functions. It is able to help me to perform all the tasks that I have needed to perform so far. Customer service \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] has also been very patient, professional and informative. > > **Cons**: It is a large and complex packet and I am sure that I have not explored all its capabilities, yet. I just have to take some time to explore. > > Resourcemate is a very powerful and useful tool. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/262827/resourcemate?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/262827/resourcemate) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
