Presence Reviews

Presence is a simple and easy to grasp project proposal submission platform. It is convenient in terms of the format and makes advertising and attendance tracking easy because it is all incorporated within the proposal itself.

Sometimes presence forms take a long time to load and in terms of navigating and locating where features are, it could be more user user friendly. Also it could give more features like reminders to program organizars if the event is in a few days and also ways to remind them to do program evaluations right when the program time ends on presence.

I work in residential life and manage programming proposals of 16 staff. It is easy to keep track of events because presence holds all data in one place. Another benefit is being able to use presence to track attendance.

It organizes all our events, attendance, data all in one place.

It takes forever to load sometimes, and sometimes its a hassle to do certain things. After an event time is over, having to add students in by A# but dont have all the options as if the event was still live. We had an issue using our id cards to swipe, they wouldn't read.

I love how robust the site is and how the features can solve problems and automate processes. It truly gives student affairs a one-stop platform for event management, org management, co-curricular programming, gamification and more. I love the extensive conditional logic, making it easy to streamline and automate workflows for approvals. Unfortunately, enjoying these great benefits of using this software rely heavily on the software performing consistently, which it fails at more often than not.

This product is riddled with bugs and performance issues. The company promises fixes or new features that it rarely delivers. Just when you think something is working again, something else breaks. Some problems have existed for years with no resolution. When they release a new feature or enhancement that is two years overdue, you'll discover it was not adequately tested and either needs to be rolled back or is a terrible user experience. I want to love this product, and I love what it's supposed to be able to do, but unfortunately, it seems mismanaged and is severely lacking on performance and followthrough.

If it worked properly, it would help to automate workflows around approvals for events and organizations, serve as an online platform for cocurricular learning and tracking, help with event and student organization management and gamify student involvement on campus.
