Well worth the investment
We use them for daily site logs, health and safety inspections and equipment maintenance with the work order system.
- Ebase has been a great product to use and grow with our school Board, We have slowly added components on as required and increased our users from office staff to on site staff as well as custodial staff
- Customer support has been exceptional with responses and questions and have been able to tailor to our needs
- Very user friendly
- The only con was getting our 500 staff trained on this program as we switched from a completely different type of program for our work order system
- Ebase helped with multiple training sessions as needed and willing to set up virtual sessions to be able involve all parties

better customer support and better user use and flexibility

User perspective and feed back as a manager of the team which use the product
Tracking manpower of custodians and maintenance team, daily functionality of the tasks scheduling. Its easy to use, easy to get around practically self explanatory.
- The e-base software is easy to use, specifically on a day to day basis, recurring WO functions works well to maintain facilities, asset management is really useful on creating a budget and asses equipment cycle function and replacement
- Recently we integrated more and more the system for functions and events and is the only system we use to book rooms and schedule setups of events
Assigning a tag to the equipment and tracking inventory equipment, we think could be better linked to residual value of the assets value with accounting department

Community Use of Schools
Verified reviewer
- Easy to use for myself and the public users for Community Use of Schools module
- Specific reports are hard to locate
- It would be great if there was an option to enter in the specific information required and generate a report

Best Facilities Management Software
I have had the opportunity to use other health and safety management software over my 25+ year career in the health and safety profession and eBase is by far the most customizable and user friendly software on the market. Changes to templates can be made easily in-house, without additional service fees or or long delays. Finally, the customer services team provides direct person-to-person assistance in a timely manner and have been a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend eBase.
- I use eBase for our health and safety management system
- The system has various module including logs, workplace inspections, work orders, document library and a forms module to create customizable forms, such as, hazard/incident reporting and investigation reports
- The best part about eBase is that the modules are customizable to suit our needs, and we can make changes to the template on the go, with no need to submit a ticket and wait months for changes
- The software allows us to schedule logs, inspections, etc
- automatically, and has feature to remind end user of overdue items
- Similarly, we customized our incident reporting system to alert the supervisor in real-time when an incident report is submitted
- Each module also has a reports components that allow us to create customized reports for tracking, reporting and trends analysis, as well as the option to export to Microsoft Excel
- We were easily able to integrate our HRIS system through Active Directory into eBase for employee and supervisor demographics for hazard/incident reporting
- As will all software, there are some features that do not work exactly how I want them to or I would like to have
- That said, the eBase development team is very open to receive suggestions for continually improving the software, and some of the changes we have requested have been implemented

I'm all about that eBase, 'bout that eBase, no trouble!
The Client Services I've experience is unparalleled. [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] is so knowledgeable and patience. She often has a solution or plan of action so I never feel ignored. Cannot overstate how important this has been in our implementation process. It's great to see a company consistently looking for ways to improve.
- It's very intuitive, easy to navigate, and visual
- I appreciate the editability and that changes are real-time
- I also want to give the "Switch To" function a shout-out because it's awesome for helping troubleshoot user problems
- - I feel like WO notifications need an overall reboot
- - A better way of notifying parties when the text box under WO 'Actions' is filled out
- It appears in 'History' only and therefore is easily missed
- - No way to integrate our external absent management software in to eBase without adopting the timesheets module which would require inputting/upkeeping data in two places
- - Would be great if there was an alert that could be issued when a provider has entered in more time than is available for in a predetermined work week -An hour limit per labour note that requires approval if gone past
- - An 'Estimates' tool that can be used for a combination of internal and external service providers
- - A way to assign multiple 'Internal Service Providers' under one work order without having to create multiple jobs
- - Include a date stamp when a 'Job' is added
- - Ability to 'Start New Discussion' and select which job - Linkage between WO Facilities and Rentals
- - A way to customize the homepage for an entire 'Profile' group

Work Order System was outdated and wanted to have our rentals and work orders under one roof.

Very User Friendly Software
I had used eBase at my previous School Board so when moving to a larger School Board it was a necessary change to bring the rentals department to more modern efficiencies when processing permits, running reports and keeping track of financials. It is extremely user friendly and gives me all the information I need at my fingertips. The permits, statements and invoicing is more user friendly from a client perspective. It is a positive experience for both the School Board staff and the clients.
The eBase software is user friendly to use and set up and makes processing permits a lot easier and quicker
Sometimes the needs of a smaller school board or rentals department is not the needs of a larger school board with a larger rentals department so sometimes some customization is required

HR Coordinator - Occupational Health and Safety
My personal experience with eBASE is a very positive one. The software allows me easy access to our facilities history on site inspections and work orders. The company support technicians are absolutely awesome and I have had very good response time when asking questions or trying to resolve a minor problem. I am very comfortable working with the product and I have found it to be very reliable.
- The software works well for us as it links our safety inspections to our work order system which is very valuable
- I like that it has the ability to be customized in areas to suit a client
- I also like the ability to upload forms, photos, input comments and it tracks history in a very obvious and easy to find way
- The thing I like the least about the software is the struggle users have when they are not familiar with computer systems
- The most frequent complaint is the user does not find it intuitive
- It would be good if the system had more short cuts
- I also find limitations on the types of reports the system can generate
Why they chose it

My experience with the Ebase system
Ebase company is very helpful. They have been able to assist me quickly with any issues I may encounter and there have not been many. It is mostly from the accounting side and they do advise on what I am able to accomplish on my end. Very friendly company who listened to what your company needs and is able to address and produce what we are looking for. We have expanded use from our rental department to our maintenance and operations departments with positive results.
- Easy to use
- Able to help reduce time in processing permits, keeping renter information up to date, and producing reports
- Also have received feedback from renters saying they like the ease in which they can request a booking
- When booking monthly I still cannot get the proper dates to come up for each month
- EG
- 2nd Tuesday of the month
- I have to manually change for each month

My supervisor searched Ebase information and saw that we could process permits and produce any reports needed with ease, which is something we could not do with Class

Solutions you need, when you need them...
Great product and great people.
- Starting over 10 years ago, eBase was our organization's first Facilities Management Software implementation
- eBase provided the custom functionality we needed as we developed and brought out facilities organization into the future
- As an organization that operates and maintains a significant number of assets with limited resources, the solutions provided by eBase met our needs without being overwhelming
- We are still in control of how we want to operate and eBase is able to configure the software to function the way we need it
- The implementation and support team at eBase is very easy to work with and helps us learn from other customers' successes as we make continuous improvements and expand on what the product has to offer
- Currently, I have no outstanding issues that eBase has not addressed

Customization and integration
eBASE has provided for a collaborative working experience amongst a very diversified organizational audience where multi departmental access to important documents and refences can be made at a touch of a button.
The flexibility to customize for our specific organization insures that we can meet our own needs and specific organizational goals
Would like to see the development of a more defined holistic capital assessment and life cycle management tool
Why they chose it
"Very intuitive and flexible set up for our organization. Access to live customer service agents when you have a question or problem. Any matters are dealt with quickly and very thoroughly, Agents always take the extra time to explain and walk you through issues when needed."
