Intelex Review

Comments: Overall, we've had a positive experience using Intelex software. There's so much functionality available (and new ones being developed) and I'm constantly learning new things. I also want to mention that SUEZ North America has been featured in an Intelex case study which you can read at the link below.
[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN]

Pros:

A great benefit of Intelex and Intelex mobile is that it is customizable to our forms and processes. Using Application Builder, we have the ability to create custom applications that align with our processes. Furthermore, it's easy to use, especially for employees that are out in the field or in remote locations. Notifications allow us to follow up on task completions and Reports/Dashboards allow us to summarize data and track our indicators for compliance. The Intelex Community site is a fantastic resource filled with great documentation and helpful answers from fellow Intelex customers.

Cons:

Initially, managing Intelex might feel overwhelming. There is a steep learning curve when starting out as an Intelex system admin, especially if you start customizing application source code, building out complex features or working with the API.

As an Implementation Partner - easy to configure, setup and allow clients to achieve goals

Pros:

As an Implementation Partner: the out of the box EHS system is a fantastic starting point for clients of most industries to integrate their processes. The baseline application is adaptable to most clients' business needs with minimal to moderate effort. For more complex corporations, with multiple business units with individual needs, the Intelex platform is an extremely flexible solution that allows us to configure and tweak the solution to meet their needs. Having implemented the EHS system dozens of times - we are, with few exceptions, able to provide a solution that greatly improves: Quality of EHS data, Quantity of data via a simple user interface, ease of reporting and extracting data from the system along with standard OSHA reporting.

Cons:

Depending on your industry, the base platform as delivered may require configuration to meet specific business needs.

Versatile software with excellent tools for data capturing and assessment

Comments: We have a really good system, easy to use and with good user adoption. The software works well for a tri-lingual organizations. I'm part of one of the subsidiaries using Intelex, and also part of the global team handling the system for our corporation.

Pros:

The possibilities we have to adapt the software to fit our needs, both through internal projects, but also through development projects lead by Intelex. We have used Intelex for about five years and have gone through a big development both with regards to internal adoption of the different solutions, but we have also seen a big improvement and development of the software plattform itself.

Cons:

The possibilities means that you need to have a clear idea of where you want to end up. The out-of-the-box solutions does a great job, but it does also put a lot of responsibility on the client to scope out needs and assess which solutions would better suite our needs.

Ease of Customization

Pros:

The data reporting and customization is really powerful. It is easy to be able to customize the way the data goes into the system in order to be able to get the metrics that are required. The ability to be able to create applications from the ground up has also been beneficial. We did not use anything "out of the box" and have done a lot of customization throughout its use. We are really able to capture meaningful data and analyze it to make improvements.

Cons:

As with all software, this one has its quirks causing some resistance from end users. These quirks can be overcome through training and work instructions.

Intelex Provides a Superior Solution for EHSQ Management Functions

Comments: This product simplifies your life!

Pros:

Intuitive platform that allows for complete and thorough incident management, follow-up, investigations, document control, task assigning and notifications, and so much more! I use this daily for incidents and safety observations, management of change, non-conformance, and running reports. This tool also provides a wide selection of visual aids for dashboard creation and management! Highly recommend!

Cons:

Any cons that we have uncovered in this software has been overcome with the endless modifications and customizations of this amazing platform!

Great way to capture your EHS incident data, and then be able to analyze it with the reporting app.

Comments: EHS Management, Quality Management, Reporting, Real Time Dashboards, Preventative Maintenance, Document Control

Pros:

The software's reporting functionality is a big draw because it is constantly being improved, and the possibilities for analyzing your organizations EHS data is endless. This is extremely helpful when creating our annual OGSMs.

Cons:

I have had good experiences with Intelex over my last 5 years of use. Intelex has many application options which make expansion to other areas in Safety, Quality, and Environmental very easy. However, you still need to take the time to improve the existing applications being used by your organization.

Easy to use

Pros:

Its configurability. It is easy to make changes, add fields, drop down values and move things around.

Cons:

Requires the users to do many clicks to get from step to step. Although the user will get use to the steps, less clicking would be nice.

Intelex has excellent customer service and will help your through all your learning needs.

Comments: Data trending has helped with seeing areas of improvement in our facility. Has helped showing VPs safety trends.

Pros:

I really like the reporting module because it is very easy to learn compared to the V5 module. Incident reporting was very easy to help people understand not only what their role is but also the workflow of the whole incident report.

Cons:

The importing from V5 to V6 was a big struggle. We started this process about 4-5 months and we are still working on import issues that we run into. I do not like the I have to give access to individual people when scheduling a report. Our customers have struggled with figuring this out.

Intelex is and awesome suite of products.

Comments: It really is a one-stop shop for all of our EHSQ needs!

Pros:

I've been an administrative user for over eight years now, and we've designed custom applications for the system that were probably never thought of Intelex being used for!

Cons:

We've had to overcome a couple of "quirks" in the system as far as configuration, but once we overcame those issues, it's been smooth sailing.

Consistency in excellent service across all departments within the company.

Pros:

The configurability and freedom to structure to meet our own internal business needs. The ease of setup allowing our end users an easy and simple experience.

Cons:

There aren't any cons because we primarily utilize the system as a learning tool and information sharing which is highly successful with our established processes.

We moved to the Intelex system a little over a year ago. The overall implementation was very easy.

Pros:

The system is very easy to use. The data acquisition from the system makes my life easy. I no longer need to go have pull data from spreadsheets and from them into a report. I can now get the info from several clicks of the button.

Cons:

I have been very happy with the Intelex system. The only con that I have for the system is that the save button is not a the bottom of report fields.

Great support and apps

Pros:

Real time view of company EHS performance helps with strategic planning. The reports are basically unlimited and can provide easy analytics for your data.

Cons:

Some workflows make the experience difficult. Not all applications work exactly the way we want it out of the box, but the configuration allows us to make those changes.

good software little tough to learn but than a breeze

Pros:

Intelex has provided a solid foundation for our Incident Management program. Upgrading to v6 has opened up multiple oppritunties to grow.

Cons:

not a very good migration from v5 to v6 and data improrts. the data does not match so trending does not work with both programs

Very flexible, easy to use and great support

Pros:

Flexibility to configure app for our company and create new apps as needed and ability to access the data for reporting.

Cons:

Configuring security can be difficult to get correct, imports can be difficult to set up- it's not easy to understand all of the objects

The experience has been great. Looking forward to using the system.

Pros:

I think it is a very interactive software. It will be great to use. Looking forward to using the software.

Cons:

Have not really found any cons at this time. Excited about the new platform. It is alot easier to use than the old platform.

Extremely easy to use with powerful customization tool.

Pros:

Ease of use and excellent mobile platform. The software is scalable to fit your buisness needs from out of the box to a customizable solution to fit existing buisness practices.

Cons:

There are very few cons. The online knowlege center is great for beginning users but lacks detailed information for heavy power users. This is a deliberate choice so not to overwhelm the majority of users. It would be helpful to have a master user knowlege center.

Moving from Reactive Processes to Leading Transformational Indicators

Comments: Before Intelex, the majority of Pace Industries' safety data was being recorded and tracked on paper or in Excel. We were struggling with inaccurate data, reactive processes that were time consuming and a lack of traceability and consistency. Intelex has allowed us to move from lagging indicators to leading transformational indicators more rapidly, and we're able to use the data collected to see the areas that we need to focus on prior to an incident occurring. I can easily pull up dashboards on Incidents by Root Cause, Incidents by Department, Near Miss to Incident Ratio and more. In the first two years since implementing Intelex our Incident Severity Rate saw an 85% reduction. Leveraging Intelex we've been able to reduce our OSHA Recordable Rate by 62% from 2012 to 2015, and our Workers' Compensation Dollars were reduced by $1.2 million in that same time period. We're continuing to roll out additional applications and we see Intelex as a critical part of our safety culture.

Improved safety performance and ensures compliance

Comments: Intelex's Safety Incident Reporting application provided such a high level of visibility into our safety performance that we were able to identify areas for improvement that would have never been uncovered otherwise. Detecting root causes and driving corrective and preventive actions, it has been a critical component to the success of our entire safety program and maintaining OHSAS 18001 compliance. Our users enjoy the simple, user friendly aspects of the system and there is no doubt it has contributed to our improved performance and recent Health & Safety Award.

Agnico Eagle use Intelex since 2011

Comments: We rely on Intelex's software to support our training, incidents, inspections and other critical business activities. With Intelex we have access to the key details related to each health and safety incident across multiple global locations and this gives us the ability to share and learn from each other's experiences in real time. As a result, Intelex has played an important role in enabling us to reduce our Accident Frequency Rate by half in 3 years' time.

Great tool with industry-leading features

Pros:

The best part about this software is that it is mobile friendly which further enhances its ease of use. Filtering the incidents has just become easier with the different indicators this tool offers. This product offers great flexibility to customize. I would definitely recommend this product.

Cons:

It took sometime to get a hang of this product. Besides that, I believe the only negative part about this software is the price. It certainly is over priced.
