## Reviews

### "Needs overhaul" — 2.0/5

> **Marco** | *20 July 2024* | Human Resources | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: To be honest, in the 2+ years, I was not a fan of BVS. System was outdated and lacked all the features other systems have.
> 
> **Cons**: The whole experience was not positive. Additional upgrades are a must for BVS to improve.
