Easy Storage Solutions Software Review
Extremely frustrating and time consuming experience that I am so glad is over
Pros
Can’t think of anything good
Cons
They are not interested in helping you get started AT ALL. We got a discount on their monthly fee and it’s not even worth that. It took less than a week to get up and running with CC Storage. We tried ESS for over a month, never got it working and spent $100 for NOTHING. Support team is worthless for ESS
Run as fast as you can from ESS
The first few years were great! I referred many owners to ESS. Ever since Storable bought it, there has been a steady decline. More downtime. Less enhancements. Nearly no fixes. Don’t waste your time or money with this company. They don’t care about you or your business.
Pros
I have been using ESS since 2016. The software and development team were good until Storable bought them out. Now I would not recommend them to my worst enemy. I am here shopping for a new software package to replace ESS.
Cons
They have greatly increased the monthly subscription while at the same time refusing to fix even minor issues with the software. They also forced all owners to switch to their payment processor while adding their own fees in so payment processing also went up considerably and on this functionality went down. Overall, Storable is not interested in improving ESS, just milking all of the money they can out of storage owners. Run as fast as you can from ESS. It is not worth it anymore.
For someone who is not software proficient this system is intuitive
I have implemented the software and use it on a daily basis. It is quick, easy and thorough. The support is immediate and always solves my issue. It is the best support I have received on any software I have ever used and that’s a big thing considering I have implemented software and hardware platforms for over forty years. For someone who is not software proficient this system is intuitive and easy to operate. I Highly recommend it!
Pros
support and ease of use
Cons
It would be nice if the user had a few more database editing tools
