Why I choose and have stuck with Shortlist, despite a few setbacks
Pros
- Managing payments.
- Managing year-end tax documents.
- Allowing for minor customization to profiles and platform.
Cons
- Shortlist only allows for minor customizations to their platform. It would be great if each company could create their own view/usage set for the system.
- The help chat box needs some work for sure. It takes days for someone to respond if they ever respond and often there is nothing they can do to remedy the issue at hand.
- Payments should be able to be made every day, not just on Fridays.
Return on Investment
- Overall shortlist has helped us because we don't have another way to collect and accept bids, create project information, and conduct payments and contracts with vendors.
- The negative side is the extremely time consuming nature of navigating through the platform. It takes hours of team members' time to complete simple tasks.
