Polaris ILS vs. SirsiDynix Symphony

Appropriate for public libraries but I don’t think a small school library would need it

As far as my use case, Workflows Client appears to be specifically designed to be used only in Libraries. So it wouldn't make sense to use it outside of that context. Workflows is packed with features, and does seem to be relatively easy to use, if that's the software you're dealing with on a daily basis.

Incentivized

• Integrates with other platforms
• User friendly
• Used by other libraries

• In my opinion, poor customer service

It is user friendly to a degree but, in my experience, a lot you have to use online resources to figure out

I think Polaris ILS is more suited for larger libraries; in my opinion, Destiny is simple enough for a small school library.

I wasn't involved in choosing Workflows, and am not aware of any competitors.

• Helps us catalog quickly
• Helps us monitor patrons fines
