Pandora Care Management System

Versatile and effective software

Commentaires : Pandora is a great software and I have had a great experience with them

Avantages :

The pros of the software for me is the way incidents are recorded and data is collated. The Software has been improving continuously during our use and it is becoming a software that we are now using in live time more and more. Other pros include the Rota Management, Purchase Order and Task Engine features. Rota Management feature allows you to check in advance what dates you are short and you can filter this to location. The Purchase Order feature is easy to use and you are able to manage budgets as you approve purchase orders which is a very effective tool. The Task Engine is a slightly newer feature that will be developed further I am sure but so far my thoughts on this feature is that it is very useful and again offers another very useful management tool which links into other parts of the system.

Inconvénients :

Pandora needs to improve communication with its customers.

Pandora Care Review

Commentaires : The software is an amazing tool for the Healthcare sector - it has so many different functions in one system to allow for one central point to do everything from service user management to rota management and HR.

Avantages :

The pros of the software are that it is incredibly user friendly, any information needed on service users can be found very quickly. The software is also very versatile in the way that it has so many different types of functions that connects multiple the multiple different types of data.

Inconvénients :

I have no negatives regarding this software

A mixed bag with so much potential it hurts to see it constantly fall short of what i could be.

Commentaires : Overall I am constantly frustrated with Pandora Care. The support team have been exceptional in trying to help with various issues and problems I encounter on a regular basis with the software. My frustration comes from the feeling that a lot of the issues that are raised with support could have been ironed out or picked up prior to release and allowing me access to using it. A lot of the website blogs note how Pandora saves you time. This is certainly true for recording data, however when it comes to reporting data I now spend much longer sorting out the various issues which Pandora presents me with in order to ensure I am reporting accurate information. The PQRM report, for example, used to take me approximately one working day to write, now that I use Pandora to get the data for this report it takes me approximately 4 days to write.

Avantages :

The software can do ALOT. It is versatile and flexible, the team seem willing to adapt or create almost anything that your imagination can dream and they are managing to devise ways of capturing complex clinical data in new and innovative ways. In particularly, having both a mobile app and a desktop version of the app is a stroke of pure genius. It's been nearly 4 years since Pandora was first used and it has grown phenomenally beyond a simple application that recorded incidents and CCRs.

Inconvénients :

It is incredibly inconsistent, full of bugs and quite lazy in some of the ways it has been implemented. There is limited standardization across the different modules of the platform for any of the UI, with the exception of picking dates, but even this does not follow the same rules consistently. This means it is not intuitive and it is difficult for inexperienced people to "figure out" how to use without being properly trained. There are still some areas where my date range will not include data from the final date of the range I have selected. The validity of the data is poor, simple logical things such as not allowing someone to enter a date which is greater than today are rarely thought through prior to the "final release" of a new module and it is then up to the user to submit many support tickets to get the bugs and issues ironed out which is not fun and incredibly annoying. There are also times where dramatic changes are made to the software and this is not communicated in any shape of form to the users, who are left to merely stumble across changes circumstantially. Many bugs and issues aside, I feel Pandora's biggest con is it's lack of finesse. It comes across as a lazy half finished application which is incredibly annoying as the software has SO much potential.

Pandora Care Management System review

Commentaires : My experience is very positive as I am able to carry out most of my work needed for my role on this one app. The only down side is I am not able to see Rota management on it yet nor allocate staff to patients yet.

Avantages :

That you can access most of what you need to carry out your job role and how easy to use it is. Also it is expanding all the time so those features that are missing at the moment, you know they are on the way.

Inconvénients :

Some parts still have little glitches like when in incident reporting the witness's will disappear.

Pandora Care

Avantages :

I like the range of information that can be recorded and used on the system. It covers all aspects of running a hospital site

Inconvénients :

The ease of saving information into emailable documents is time consuming.
