Asset Edge is extremely professional when it comes to its software products. Council has been with Asset Edge for a number of years using Reflect and now Control software. I have found Asset Edge to be more than helpful in backing up their products 100%. Problems are sorted straight away with no hesitation and information is updated regularly to the user’s needs. Conferences are held annually to provide updates, training and feedback on improvements that may be useful for their software and users. Asset Edge software would have to be one of the easiest programs on the market to gather, store and report information.

With regards to Council's use of Recover we found it to be an extremely effective way of recording storm damage to Council's Assets. The cost estimation feature was easy to use and allowed Council to submit storm damage costs in a format that was acceptable to RMS. The ability to collect all relevant field data using an android device and prepare cost estimates via the web version was also helpful.

Dungog Shire Council utilised the Recover android software to capture damage from the recent April 2015 storm. Council were very impressed with the quick response from your company’s Solutions Consultant Cindy McLucas in organising tablets and training to allow our staff to begin the extensive data capture process. Using this software on tablets or mobile phones was very easy, staff were able to navigate the software with a few hours training. The subsequent review of damage and costing of the remediation works was much easier than previous events where we relied on memories and a few photos to determine the damage cost. I would recommend this package to other Council’s prior to the next disaster event to allow quick responses and more accurate data pickup.

I have found working with Asset Edge to be a great benefit to myself and Murrumbidgee Shire Council. When we carry out our asset inspection program we have been using Reflect to record our inspections, defects and repairs on our state roads as well as on local roads, footpaths and levee bank. With the reflect program being flexible Asset Edge and MSC have been able to develop a database which records our noxious weed inspections and weed infestation and information. This allows council to map out weed infestations and record what action has been taken to comply with noxious weed control. Using the software for these different inspection programs has helped the council have a well maintained defect register of its assets. We have found Asset edge to be very helpful and great to work with in developing the databases to suit the council’s needs and with any other problems we may incur.

The software products have been built with flexibility for the organisation. The development of the products is done with considered consultation and delivered to all users in quick time. Using the software is intuitive and user friendly and above all - the after sales support is great.
