For those who have EMR vs. those with no EMR, could those comment on the Positives and Negatives?

My school does not have a complete EMR--just labs/consults on computer, while we still have paper charts.
A note written on one of patients was written so poorly, I asked if the writer could please re-write their note in ENGLISH!

I've heard that EMR usually ends up leading to more work in the end, but you are more efficient---especially when carrying 10 patients during residency.

Thanks!
