Cost Analyst

The Help Menu and Datacor University are excellent tools and have been very useful for our teams.

The latest version of Datacor ERP VB.Net is a great improvement over the years and has made my job so much more effective. Everything is at my fingertips and is very intuitive to the user.

General Ledger Accountant-Remote

Absolutely the worst ERP system that I have ever used. Anyone who has ever used any other ERP system will KNOW that Chempax is TERRIBLE.

Quality

What I like best about this product is that it is user friendly with easily accessible menus.

Operator

When you input some info by mistake such as the wrong date you cannot automatically delete the entry. It just stays there until an administrator fixes it.

Plant Operations & Support Services

This software is very user-friendly and able to customize the layout to best fit your work scene. It is very helpful to navigate through the software.

Vice President

Most of the features we desired in an Accounting software was already available. One of my favorite features is the Batch Manufacturing module with the Quality Control features.

Product Manager

I think one of the most useful features is the data audit trailing. I also find that the integration with other software is great like Datacor's CRM.

Administrative Assistant

What makes chempax really good is their willingness to make adjustments to the software as needed and their availability when there are issues.

Quality control

What I do like about chempax is that it is User friendly and can easily navigate between menus.

President

The amount of integration into our business that we have been able to achieve with Datacor ERP is critical to our continuous improvement and sustained growth.

Partner

The support team is very responsive to our needs (we don't really need them for that much, but when we do need them they are always helpful and knowledgeable).

Plant Manager

It is one system that does everything we need to successfully run our business. We are both a manufacturer and distributor and the system handles both.

IT Specialist

There seems to be a lack of intuitive interfaces.

Finance Controller

There are limited controls built in and some screens are hard to read.

IT Coordinator

I say this because I would rather have that than a perfect ERP system with terrible customer service. Great Job Guys and Thank You.

The name is cute: Chempax. Low cost but then we get less than what we paid for.

Sales Engineer

The software is easy to set up and use. The new functionalities are rolled out to the customers at no extra costs periodically.

Sage Construction Suite

Aptean Industrial Manufacturing ERP Traverse Edition

We have been using Chempax for over 15 years and continue to be very happy with it.  The best part of Chempax is that they keep investing in the product.  There are new releases coming our on a regular basis as they continue to add new functionality and integrate new technology.  Datacor is in the process of a generational transition.  They have hired a great new management team to keep the company and the product stable for decades to come.  As a customer, we are thrilled to see this stability.

Chempax is a great option for any midsized business needing a robust ERP

It's a long process to get set up and ready to go live, but our representative was very helpful and we had regular meetings until it was completed.  When I have a problem, I find it difficult sometimes to get it straightened out in a timely manner.  Alot of emails going back and forth, but can't seem to get some things resolved.  It just keeps lingering on.

NEW USER AS OF MARCH 1, 2024

I started working with Chempax almost 11 years ago and what it lacks in functionality it makes up with such a great support team. I say this because I would rather have that than a perfect ERP system with terrible customer service.   
Great Job Guys and Thank You!!!!!


Michele Fury Review

Datacor is helpful, but for the monies that is spent on it there should be more available without the extra costing. The features could be expanded to be more user customizable like so many other features are. 

Sabrina Mottern

Datacor ERP is a must-have asset!

Superior Industrial

Datacor

Chemical industry specific ERP, but not as user friendly or easy to access as other products

Ricca Product Management user view

Chemical Distribution with Datacor ERP

We have used Chempax for about 20 years. Overall the company has not been bad, but they have been unfair on licensing enough times that I'm more than tired of it. One time we mistakenly violated our agreement and they locked us out of our system rather than informing us of the issue and giving us an opportunity to fix it.

New Chempax

Datacor ERP - great strides

We love the software and the continuous improvements. The support that is given when we have issues has been outstanding.

All in one ERP system

We needed and ERP and Datacor was best compromise between the other software provider.

Datacor ERP Review

Functionality built into the system helps us with every part of our business, including Accounting, Invoicing, Inventory, Regulatory Compliance, Sales Reporting and more. Datacor ERP is designed specifically for the chemical manufacturing and distribution industry. The way that the system is designed means that new features are constantly being rolled out to all of Datacor's customers, at no extra charge to other companies.

Absolutely the Best ERP for Anyone in the Chemical Industry

The implementation was difficult. I wish Datacor would have had a better way to guide us through this. We pretty much tried to move our old system into this one instead of really making some improvements and having Datacor work better for us. Once we got on the system and got all the kinks worked out, it works wonderful and support is quick to respond.
