Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Used to not only replace an aging maufacturing system, but to enhance the data gathering and costing process. We use RT for all our workstations, Warehouse Management to better control our inventory by locations.the accounting module and are in the process of impementing the QC module. The goal is to make use of the Workfoce and Payroll functions in the system within the next few months.

Pros

Reat Time Manufacturing
Inventory Control
Outsource Central
Quality Document Control
Responsive Help Desk

Cons

HR process
Payroll needs to be upgraded

Likelihood to Recommend

Data gathering from the RT is top notch. It is made for Plastics and stamping facilities where press speed cycle times is a second or more. High speed spaming can be an issue due to signaling and the transfer of signals in batches. Anyone intereseted in warehouse management and getting a good grasp on your costs will not be dissapointed with the control one has within the system.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

[DELMIAWORKS (formerly IQMS) is] currently our ERP system, while it may be wonderful for our manufacturing side of things it is completely lacking in the accounting, payroll and HR areas.

Pros

I like how they show the employee information
The auto reports are nice to be able to set up and not think about again
The GL display is average

Cons

The entire payroll module needs EVERYTHING improved
Not able to do paperless paystubs
No applicant tracking
GL is dated

Likelihood to Recommend

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.

IQMS is OK

Rating: 4 out of 10

June 22, 2018

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

IQMS is being used across the whole organization. It works well for companies in the plastics industry to manage quality documents, inventory control and information about the equipment. It is not that great for HR use - does not replace an HRIS.

Pros

Inventory Control
Quality document tracking

Cons

Anything human resources related

Likelihood to Recommend

It is not well-suited for HR purposes (i.e.employee information maintenance and information accessibility, applicant management, employee information data and reporting, training records). An actual HRIS should be used if a company uses this system for other business purposes. The system itself is not very intuitive either. There are a lot of cumbersome steps involved.

Enterprise IQ review

Rating: 8 out of 10

Incentivized

August 25, 2017

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Enterprise IQ in all aspects of our organization. It has advanced greatly over the years. As we implement each module for different departments we can greatly see improvements which cuts down the amount of time required to do the job. It makes everything much more efficient. It has greatly helped in distribution to stream line all of the different jobs required. We added WMS about 2 1/2 years ago which has improved our inventory numbers and has stopped the need for full physical inventories many times a year. IQMS continues to grow keeping up with the needs of various customers.

Pros

IQMS does a good job of responding to customer issues. Their tech staff helps with any problems until they are solved sometimes expediting issues up to testing to get the issue resolved.
IQMS has competent trainers that do on sight training. They have helped in this area a couple of times with implementation of different modules.
IQMS is very user friendly from the production floor all the way to the top of your organization.

Cons

New modules are very costly.

Likelihood to Recommend

In the manufacturing setting it is very appropriate.

Rating: 6 out of 10

November 2, 2015

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

EnterpriseIQ is being used across our whole organization. The main goal of implementing IQMS was to get a more current system and to eliminate the various databases and Excel sheets that had been built over time by users who did not feel that the legacy ERP provided them with the functionality that they needed. We implemented the main modules initially and have since added Quality and are in the process of implementing Preventative Maintenance.

Pros

It provides functionality to users in different departments.
It provides flexibility in the creation of reports to meet the needs of the business.
The software is designed well for a company in the plastics industry.

Cons

The accounting analysis and reporting leaves something to be desired. Particularly the posting and review of inventory transactions.
The help desk for technical support is hit or miss in terms of getting an employee on the phone who knows about the software beyond reading a help file.
The canned reports that come with the system are very poor and on some occasions do not provide reliable data (especially "as-of" reports). We needed to modify most for our needs.

Likelihood to Recommend

EnterpriseIQ is very well suited to a company in the plastics industry as the core software would not need to be modified.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use EnterpriseIQ for manufacturing/planning/shipping, inventory control, purchasing and receiving, sales and distribution, and finance and accounting; including GL, AR, AP, budgeting, project tracking/management, and fixed assets. It is the ERP for our seven plants and the corporate headquarters. We use the add-in Spreadsheet Server for our periodic internal and external reporting.

Pros

PO issuance and monitoring, approval management.
Planning and managing the manufacturing process.
Spreadsheet Server is user-friendly and well-featured.

Cons

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.

Likelihood to Recommend

How easily customizable are the various modules and reports? The accounting reports we use are lacking in some detail. They display correctly but don't download properly. Is that easily correctable?

EnterpriseIQ is built for manufacturing companies

Rating: 7 out of 10

Incentivized

October 29, 2015

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

EnterpriseIQ is used throughout our companies, which are separated by Eplants. It is used by nearly all of our departments in one aspect or another, and we're looking to implement more features throughout the company as a whole to streamline processes and increase efficiencies. As a manufacturing company, flexibility in scheduling and inventory management is a vital piece of our day to day operations, and EnterpriseIQ typically provides us a solution.

Pros

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.

Cons

We have implemented Shipping Manager and been disappointed that it doesn't have anywhere close to all of the options and features allowed in UPS's and FedEx's own programs, which are free. This has meant that we continue to use the other two programs, as well as Shipping Manager.
Their SER process of taking customers' suggestions to improve the product used to be a strength of the company, but recently, they changed this process for the worse, and it is evident by their comments that it is solely due to increasing the bottom line.
Now, it can be difficult to get a response from IQMS regarding certain SERs, and usually confusing on what they do choose to develop or not.
Their support team also used to be a big strength with quick responses. However, within the last year, we have had multiple support cases that stretched for months with little to no communication. It seems they have grown considerably without hiring enough support specialists to keep up.

Likelihood to Recommend

EnterpriseIQ is great for manufacturing companies due to modules such as Inventory and Bill Of Material (BOM). This allows flexibility for a variety of manufacturing types. Unlike other programs, it doesn't allow you to easily delete a record to fix a mistake - it forces you to backtrack so that there is visibility with what has been done, which is very important for strict inventory control.

My EnterpriseIQ review

Rating: 10 out of 10

Incentivized

October 29, 2015

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use EnterpriseIQ company wide. The RT module provides real-time visibility of the production floor. We can see in a glance the status of jobs and if they are running efficiently. Warehouse management allows us traceability through the system from receiving, through manufacturing, warehousing, and shipments. The HR, Time & Attendance, and Payroll modules allow us greater flexibility. No extra outside software is needed. The Spreadsheet Server along with the accounting modules allows us to make informed business decisions.

Pros

The partnership they extend with their customers is extraordinary as shown in the user groups they hold and in the SERs you can submit.
The ability to jump to other sections of the software allows greater flexibility to move seamlessly through the system.

Cons

The only part of the software in our version I see lacking is the auxiliary equipment tab in the BOM. It really needs to be linked to inventory somehow so that it is its own class and can be scanned to and from the locations it resides in rather than just being tied to the bill of materials.
The only weakness is the users not fully utilizing the full functionality of the software in the grasp.

Likelihood to Recommend

It is best to obtain all of the modules initially so go into detail outlining what you will need for your specific business.

Enterprise IQ is the Cadillac of the ERP world! :)

Rating: 10 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Enterprise IQ is used across our entire organization:

<ul><li>Inventory Management</li><li>Sales Order Management</li><li>Scheduling</li><li>Asset Management</li><li>Production</li><li>Training</li><li>Customer Service</li></ul>It allows everyone in the building to know what's going on with a particular product at any given time. It is a very user friendly ERP system that doesn't require much from the user. EnterpriseIQ is great for keeping records and product tractability as well.

Pros

Product Life-cycle Management: This allows a company to centralize all manufacturing records pertaining to a particular product line to one place.
Bill of Manufacturing: There are several different type of "BOMs" that can be used to structure production requirements and streamline workflow.
Quality Module: This module incorporates everything from documents libraries, CA/PA, ECO, FMEA, in-process inspection and inspection requirements for each part at any given stage.

Cons

The Occasional Glitch: A random, not so often glitch will occur, but the tech team at EnterpriseIQ is very responsive and helpful in resolving the issue.
Document Library Nesting: This system is structured in a way to allow for nested files (i.e. the way most people would organize and save files on their desktop computers).

Likelihood to Recommend

This software is suited for large corporations to small businesses. Some examples of questions that any business owner should be asking are: How can this ERP system benefit my company? Does my company need all the "bells and whistles" that Enterprise IQ has to offer? Is there any assistance with ERP installation and training? What kind of training programs are offered by Enterprise IQ for the various different modules that are available?
