DELMIAWorks vs. Verint Automated Quality Management

I think [DELMIAWORKS (formerly IQMS)] is well suited for our manufacturing side of the business. The Quality control module is great for reference and being able to stay up to par on ISO Certification. Everything in the Payroll module takes 10 steps or more just to complete a simple task. Nothing in there needs to be that complicated.

AQM is well suited when wanting to have a picture of overall performance. It is great for identifying outliers and a target audience for coaching. Also expands your coverage of calls without adding any FTE/Head count. Its less suited for question types that are very complex or there are multiple ways something could be stated such as identifying complaints and then the appropriate way for an agent to respond to that complaint. (With the existing version)

• As a manufacturing company, Inventory Control has to be at the top of the list. The inventory module provides flexibility, but also tracks any move that is done to inventory.
• RealTime allows our users to see the status of a machine or production run from anywhere. This also allows us to complete our production reporting process much quicker than we would without it.
• The quality modules across the board are pretty well thought out and very easy for end users to use. The layout of these modules are similar, so it makes it easy to understand and set up. Document Control is used every single day to route documents appropriately before being released.

Incentivized

• Agent Score Cards
• Advise when agents need coaching / additional training
• Enable 100% scaling of call / interaction monitoring
• Reduce resources needed to otherwise manually review agents.

Incentivized

• Accounting reports: accrued receipts reporting makes it difficult to reconcile.
• Fixed assets: depreciation posts to the general ledger at the asset level, generating inordinately large numbers of relatively meaningless transactions.
• Process cost: PIT display lacks many useful fields, including vendor name and number.
• Financial reports carry beyond two decimal places.
• Report structures are not sensibly arranged, and many reports imbed data within text fields, making manipulation and reporting more time-consuming.

Incentivized

• Layering in additional conditions into questions could probably be improved slightly. A lot of time is being spent on rebuilds and customizing additional layers of questioning.

Given how invested we are it would be hard not to renew as don't want to go through another implementation.

The menu system is easy to navigate and intuitive for users. The learning curve for administrators is quite steep form setting up user permissions to creating reports for users. This is a very powerful system with many dynamics to help most companies. Expandability is always there and it comes down to how granular you would like your company to be on a data gathering/reporting and material flow process.

Verint Academy could use more use-friendly modules or video-based learning. I am learning how to use it at this conference, which is amazing! However, I wish there were more user-friendly tools to learn how to use AQM on one's own time.

We constantly have trouble getting support. There doesn't seem to be anyone there anymore that can help with what we need.

It is nice that an IQMS employee helps you with the implementation, however they were more of a technical resource than a project management resource. I wish they could provide a more off the shelf timeline given their experience in implementing the system.

DELMIAWorks had the best overall manufacting and data gathering software for our facility. It was easy to implement coming from a 20 year old Unix based system. The DELMIAWorks had a more robust system than Global Shop and while close to Plex, had a better pricing system and the ability to have the server on site versus the cloud.

Ease of use and ability to audit a high volume of calls. For an enterprise as large as ours, visibility is important and imperative to driving process and improvements

Incentivized

• Enterprise IQ is so versatile that it has many different ways to get to the desired result. By using their software we are able to track problems area and shift our focus on the areas that need fixed.
• Before going to Enterprise IQ our employees used to stand for hours at a computer with a pad and pencil making manual transactions. Not all of that is done through the use of scanners. The amount of overall savings not to mention the accuracy of inventory has improved greatly.

Incentivized

• We had another product that we decommissioned so we have been without AQM for 9 months now
• Negative, Still not up and running as expected
