Pros:

Cerner EMR Software is easy to use. Makes your job easier. It has all the basic features needed. Easy navigation and not much confusion. They haven’t added extra useless functions in this system, which makes things easier to use and search for information that is needed at a specific time. You won’t get lost in this system while using it.

There are a few features that if updated would be more appreciated like the charting feature. They can make the charting feature more user-friendly and make it easier for us to share it with other health professionals.

Cerner EMR Software is easy to use, and I got comfortable with it quickly. It is easy to navigate through. In terms of easy usage and reliability, it is more like EPIC. The system is organized and does not seem cluttered at all. It is very well put together.

I didn't really see anything negative about this product, but the price of it is no less at all.

Cerner's out-of-the-box solution is simple to use, and in my experience, it was simple to deploy and teach caregivers how to use it.

if you have a version that does not have as many of the robust features it can be very cumbersome and difficult to use and navigate.
