very intuitive. easily customizable. I like using the app from my phone but needs some improvement.

Pros

keeps everything organized for my daily inspections. Great calendar integration with outlook. Citizen version with GovAlert works well to get community involved.

Cons

large file size of pdf documents makes it hard to email violation notices. App can use some improvements.

The software we used prior to GP (SDL) is clunky, and awkward, and anything but user-friendly. GP blows them out of the water, and is helping us process applications faster, which automatically makes us more efficient.

Pros

Gov Pilot seems to have been designed with the user in mind, and -- on top of that -- the GP team has worked tirelessly with me to customize features, and module design toward optimum efficiency.

Cons

Because the onboarding and development teams have been so responsive to my requests in the initial phases, I have no complaints about GP whatsoever.

Switched from

[Spatial Data Logic](https://www.capterra.com/p/160830/SDL-Desktop/)

It wasn't up to ME to decide to make the switch, but I rallied for it every day. SDL is torturous to use.

Reasons for choosing GovPilot

Gov Pilot had everything we wanted: options to customize, online application possibilities, ease of use, excellent customer service. I'm so happy we made the switch!

The GovPilot modules provide a great mechanism to record, track and manage the large quantity of rental properties we administer and the diversity of issues that are reported to our local municipality.

Pros

The best feature in GovPilot is the responsiveness of the Staff. They are timely in their actions to correct issues. They take our feed-back and integrate features into the modules which tailor them to our unique circumstances.

Cons

We can not identify any drawbacks or shortfalls so far since issues are infrequent and corrected quickly when they do occur.
