EFACS E/8 is aimed at manufacturing and field service companies. Exel's customer base spans industries as diverse as food, aerospace, engineering, automotive, electronics and packaging.
Manufacturers, retailers, and others looking to utilize the best software on the market for manufacturing, sales, and accounting and run it all from one user-friendly cloud inventory platform.
The freedom to bespoke the system is also a big positive as if there is not something in the system that works for your business you can adapt it to suit.
Speaking with one consultant could lead to a vastly different answer than another so there was little consistency. We had to refuse to have two consultants back as their work and attitude was so poor.
Support is responsive, and the implementation team understand manufacturing processes, and have wide experience, so can develop effective tailored solutions.
Customisation was very difficult, requiring seldom-available consultants to spend 100s of pounds a day to set up.
The fact that you can link the system with the Microsoft Power Platform is a brilliant function as you can build your own apps and power bi reporting.
Can be problematic being tied to only Windows IE for some users who are used to other applications.
EFACS8 has been a very good fit for our business, providing us with the platform to bespoke the system to our companies specific needs.
The Shop Floor app has been brilliant for us to track production/assembly time more accurately. This has been a great help in pinpointing an accurate cost per unit.
I am still little bit worried about lack of backup available to the user. There should be method to revert in time for example.
The ease of re-prioritising jobs, and the automatic stock refactoring is awesome, and the team are really, really responsive to feature ideas and issues.
Glitches with accurate purchase prices showing up in overall product list. Described it to customer service and they denied it being a problem.
Customer service has been outstanding to help me learn features and problem solve. Very friendly and helpful.
If somebody messed up something, there is no way to go back.
I love the ease of setup with this tool, and the ability to integrate it so well with all of our other platforms.
It was woefully inadequate for our needs, but traditional MPR software was too complicated and expensive.
