Redzone Pricing

As a well established food manufacturer (Confectionary) we had gotten comfortable in our existing habits and processes. RedZone was the perfect tool and program to allow use to leave our comfort zone and dare to be much more. Importantly, it concentrated on educating, informing and empowering the line workers and operators to make better decisions based on the real time data that is displayed to...

There wasn't too much that we had a problem with. For a medium sized operation, it is not inexpensive but when we considered our payback and value, it was well worth it.

Thanks for the 'full-house' review, Marty! Love to hear the confirmation on Redzone's rapid time to value with 'Ease and speed of implementation'. And we value your contribution to the community!

Help to facilitate a collaborative culture within the facility driving communication between the support functions. Has great ability to incorporate picture and video to task that are needed to be accomplished. Multiple options for task generation frequency. Multiple layers of software available and they are strict in how you roll them out, so you don't take on too much at one time.

Does not completely replace a full CMMS system. Allows some copying of information between areas, but not all of them, so it requires hours of data input to get the system up and going, but this is similar across many software packages that do this.

Thanks for the review, Casey. Glad to hear how the solution supported your culture and the partnership with the coaching team.

Redzone has allowed us to step change our operating system and fuel our Manufacturing Excellence initiatives by providing real time data which is reportable in a way that is highly visual, easy to understand and has high utility in terms of driving shop floor performance management systems (SIC, Kaizens, Employee engagement, etc)

Interrogating and customising the data in more complex ways is driven by external reporting software which is a little daunting and non-intuitive.

Feature rich with constant improvements Excellent reporting

Cost is high Operational process improvements must happen to most effective use

Thank you for your 5 star rating! It is unfortunate that you find the cost high, as many Redzone customers enjoy rapid ROI. I would recommend sharing your thoughts with your Community Coach.

Though Redzone gets grouped as an MES, and it certainly has all the reporting and functionality of a conventional MES, it's true value lies with it being a transformational cultural tool for the team members manufacturing products. The software doesn't simply tell them how they are doing, but rather changes their behaviors and teaches them how to perform their jobs more effectively. This is done...

The software is iOS based and there are no Windows desktop options. That being said, it is easy to work around this by leveraging iPad's and Smart TV's.

Neil, thank you for this review. It is a very inciteful comparison to the MES category and the "More than an MES" is a great way of saying "Adds more value to your MES" as well.

What I like most is the ease of use. It's both intuitive and innovative. There is a shallow learning curve, and most users are up and running in no time at all.

Redzone provides plenty of support when generating reports using the Tableau software. However, I prefer self-reliance over a Redzone coach creating or altering our reports. I found a steep learning curve when learning on my own. There are classes available, but that is an additional cost.

We have implemented both an OEE and compliance module. This has allowed us to utilise the generated data to form improvement plans and improve productivity, reducing downtime and increasing efficiency. The compliance side has allowed us to create a paperless production record system and automation of check generation. Making the completion of quality/production checks easier. The ability to add verification,...

Nothing specifically to dislike about the software system, it is a fantastic tool. Improvement suggestions are relayed and appreciated; however, it does rely on other sites identifying the same in some cases to be implemented. The workload of setting up the system is labourious (but very well supported) but worth it when you get to the end result.

Easy to Use, Easy to understand, Speed to value, Flexibility, Coaching Services provided, UX Design engages operators at the shop floor, Transparency and Visualization of performance and issues tracking.

Enterprise Connectivity - however they are working towards this at a rapid pace

Thank you for an excellent review! We are thrilled to be associated with your success!

Redzone was very easy to deploy throughout the factory. Users learned the software very quickly which along with the hands on coaching allowed for a seamless implementation. More importantly, the true value of the software is that helps to transform cultures. It has certainly helped to improve manufacturing performance and increase employee morale and engagement. The amount of paperwork the operators once had to complete was mind boggling. Redzone has fixed all that!!!

There isn't anything specifically wrong with this software. Very user friendly and well supported.

Redzone is easy to use for new comers as well as for senior management team. A big step in collecting data, priorizing action and getting a bottom up information system focusing on machines, people and processes.

Defenitly the price. Nonetheless we consider Redzone as our Human Ressources - mandatory to maximize our added value.

We had a challenging implementation due to the nature of our business. Our production lines usually don't remain the same and the sensor configuration becomes inadequate.

There is not a good solution to integrate labor cost into the operations module. Tableau does not capture accurately all the data.

The implementation was very easy and combined with the training received the team has adopted the new technology seamlessly. The ease of accessing all the data at your fingertips is amazing and maximizes efficiency.

I don't have any concerns to share yet. The tool has already delivered great value to our everyday operation as we continue to learn.

Ease of use, the rollout process, coaching support and how it enhances engagement

Lacks a reporting platform, which is separate
