Interact is making a big difference to the way we work at ADT. It helps us share information, news and knowledge and is helping to further develop our 'One ADT' culture. The Workflow & Forms Manager is an extremely sophisticated and powerful module that is simple and intuitive to use and will dramatically reduce our process times.

As a charity, cost is often a key concern. Interact offered great functionality and flexibility which is important to us, and all at a very reasonable price.

Interact is an easy-to-use, visually appealing and cost-effective solution.
It was important for us to find a supplier who we felt we could work with over the long term. From the outset of the project Odyssey has been prepared to ‘go the extra mile’ to achieve our requirements and their market leading position within the Housing Association Arena speaks for itself. Their approach is that of working with us as a team rather than just a software supplier

Interact has a proven and impressive track record of delivering major, measurable efficiency savings to organisations such as ours. We evaluated a number of solutions and Interact offered us the best solution; it is feature rich and offers exceptional functionality at a reasonable cost.
We were very impressed with Odyssey’s knowledge and expertise and their consultative approach is very valuable; they focussed on our needs and gained a complete understanding of our objectives demonstrating that they are more of a partner than merely software vendors.

Interact is easy to use, has an attractive and intuitive interface and the burden on our IT team is greatly reduced as key administrators in different departments can easily update the intranet so content is valid and up to date.
We are particularly impressed with features such as the Absence Manager Module which is a great addition to our intranet; our HR team can manage staff absences with all the facilities of an advanced HR system including a reporting facility to examine absence trends.

We were looking for a solution that would galvanise Calor's Intranet, give site owners freedom to update their sites and at the same time take the IT Department out of the maintenance loop. The Odyssey Interact package looks modern and professional and we were able to quickly prove within a pilot that it delivers to all of our requirements. The package itself and the benefits it can bring proved very easy to sell to our business users and board of directors. As supplier, Odyssey has been proactive, helpful and accommodating throughout our dealing so far.

Odyssey has helped us make our Intranet a more effective business tool with elements such as the Football Challenge module, which has proved really popular with our users. Injecting a fun element into the Intranet helps build staff morale and demonstrates that the Intranet is more than simply a portal for corporate information

We looked at various intranet solutions and chose Interact as it offered advanced functionality at a reasonable cost. This, coupled with the fact that it could be implemented quickly as well as being extremely easy to use made Interact the most judicious choice. We have not been disappointed; Interact is well used by our staff who can access up to date information quickly and find its straightforward and intuitive interface easy to use. Features such as staff birthdays encourage regular usage which is vital to the success of the Intranet.

Having looked at various Intranet options, we felt that Interact gave us the flexibility and functionality we needed at a reasonable price. We needed a simple, easy to use system to suit all levels of IT abilities, whilst at the same time giving a professional image to company communications. The feedback we have received supports this objective and the consensus of opinion is that the system is very professional and easy to navigate. A good level of support was given when the system was introduced and any technical queries we had were resolved efficiently and speedily

Apart from the huge benefit the helpdesk module has given to the IS Team, we now have an intranet that is structured, functional and provides all staff with an unlimited resource of readily searchable information. Once we had seen the capabilities of Interact, the layout, the modular approach, and the ease with which staff can add content without extensive training, this was the product for Accord. The sales and support teams have provided a first class service during the implementation and we aim to continually to develop Interact with other additional modules

We have a skilled IT team at Music Factory and wanted a flexible software solution which we could use as a development platform and develop/manage in house. We also wanted to invest in the more traditional intranet tools in order to improve communication among our teams. Interact provided the ideal solution and its scalability is one of the key benefits that continues to position it as the central software at Music Factory.

Odyssey were fantastic. The intranet hasn’t even been fully rolled out yet and we can already see a decrease in the number of emails that are sent around with general company information. It’s an invaluable induction tool for new starters too – everything they need is in one place and if they have to meet someone in the company, they can just go to the contacts section and find a picture of them alongside all the info they need

With more than 2,000 members of staff we were looking for a system that would reduce the time spent looking up information regarding external contacts and performance reports. The Intranet now allows us to share information at the click of a button and Interact is so easy to use even the non-IT staff can keep the site up-to-date with minimal training

"Interact has been very well received across the whole business. We have a centralised repository of documentation that we can share across sites. It has also helped us with our IIP Initiative"

The Intranet has revolutionised the way in which members of staff communicate with each other. It has vastly reduced the amount of paper that is "in the system" at any one time.

We now have an intranet tailored to our specific needs, which can be maintained in-house. It is an invaluable tool to all internal staff.

The secure NHSnet facility makes the transfer of information from one NHS site to another a simple process and the system developed by Odyssey meets the business needs of the Agency, Health Authorities and Primary Care Groups and Trusts.

The Intranet is very straightforward to use, it enables us to manage content changes ourselves, meaning the Intranet can be kept up to date without additional investment.

We selected Interact as the core for replacing our existing Intranet because it provides a consistent environment for navigation within the site. Interact allows us to pass on activities to key users in each department reducing the need for 'IT to do everything'
