Pros

“I used the system to monitor job status, access real-time information, and help ensure projects moved efficiently from quoting through production.”
KL

Kate L.

Sales

“One aspect I liked least about JobBOSS² was that some workflows required multiple steps to complete, which could be time-consuming.”

“It also allows for the tracking of materials and hours in order by order to find which orders are consuming the most time.”

Senior IT Manager

Pros

“The review by exception cuts down batch review from 1-2hr to 15 min, whilst assuring process compliance and minimising operator errors.”

Cons

“The reporting tool lacks flexibility in a way that allows me to go through multiple jobs with similar material or customer group.”
HR

Henrijs R.

System Administrator

“The web application can be finicky and will occasionally log you out without warning, and the inventory module is not very intuitive or conducive for precise inventory control.”
RH

Ryan H.

Continuous Improvement Manager

“In the end, QB integration never worked, forcing us to move all inventory/ordering, etc., back to QB.”
MH

Mark H.

President

Cons

“I don’t like that you can’t easily track the lifecycle of the document or task tracking, rather you have to click into the info card and find the right section.”
MB

Megan B.

Regulatory Affairs Associate II

“I’m having challenges with the issue that Attachments are unable to be downloaded all together with the executed batch records.”

Judy H.

Sr. Manager, QA

“UI is not well designed for a production environment when operators are wearing gloves and PPE.”
