Pros easy to use, online based. some of the hidden functions are harder to utilized as they appear deep in the software. So some functions would be hard to notice what they do. Cons sometimes looks a bit too complex. the layered software is good but over 20 options to click on one page can mean you only ever use the vital ones and not use the software to its full potential.

They are very attentive, and actually listen to what you are needing. The software itself is very intuitive and the schedule is very easy to view and change right out of the box, but the enhancements that JobPack developers have and can make has really set them apart from others I have looked at. The drag and drop feature is top notch. We went from knowing what the next week looked like, (and then guessing past that), to being able to see out as far as a year very accurately. Yes there will be some emergencies and jobs that get thrown in as a priority, but that is also where the software shines. Once you put your new job in, then schedule it, it will even show you what jobs will be pushed out and how much it pushed them out. HUGE!!! Pros Intuitive, Accurate, Easy to use, Customer Support Cons Data dictionary is mostly in German with some English translation and can be hard to map variables when creating reports.

You would be better off using a matrixed excel spreadsheet. Cons JobPack is overly complicated and is not easy to use. There are no settings to prevent you from changing a schedule that could end up ruining a line of production and lost revenue. Based off of requirements a suggested schedule would be nice. Along with weightings per a job. Review Source Response from JobPack Production Scheduling Systems March 8, 2019 JobPack has the ability to add priority value and weight jobs higher than others. We have no record of your company using JobPack and we typically don't provide software for publishing companies. Our system schedules manufacturing processes primarily for automotive, aerospace, medical, and energy industries. SP Shawn P. IT Manager Aviation & Aerospace Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "JobPack is already saving us time and money after only 6 months of use" March 22, 2016 5.0 Pros JobPack is very easy to use and implement. You don't realize how valuable a scheduling software tool is until you get it in place and up and running. The ability for us to visualize our jobs on the shop floor, as well as know what jobs are on-time, early, or going to be late, is incredible. JobPack has been there for us every step of the way. Their support is incredible. They answer the phone when you call and are eager to help you. They are always very prompt in replying to e-mails (sometimes within just a minute or two after sending it). It is a great feeling know they will be there for us when we need them. Cons The only thing I can think of is I wish they were located on the West Coast instead of the Midwest so I can take Pete and his team out to dinner to thank them for their support and help.

We now have visability of work on the shop floor and can see when it starts to go late before the due date so we can take action to remedy the issues Pros Its fast and easy to use for someone who knows what they are doing and what they want. The shop floor data collection offers document viewing and real time status of work in progress The graphical planning board is easy for everyone to understand including sales reps who need to know when their customers work will be complete. The mobile data collection app is great for field service or assy staff to see what their next job is and clock in and out for recording times Cons Editing time clocks seems a bit clunky if shop operators make mistakes.

Information Service Supervisor Mining & Metals Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Review of Jobpack scheduler" December 5, 2016 5.0 The JobPack scheduling system is a highly configurable tool that allows the user complete flexibility in configuring the system to match the customers business model. The effort required to configure the system is worth the work when the time comes to utilize this system. This scheduling tool will provide a very accurate picture of work flow in the customers facility and prevent unnecessary guessing when planning work out in the future. Pros The scheduling system is highly configurable and also capable of customization if the customer has that need. Cons This tool requires that the customer follow a process oriented method when using this system for production and this does require both scheduling and production employee's to change from old habits.

December 19, 2016 4.0 What-if capability is what makes this software shine. Being able to see impact good or bad immediately is a great feature. Making changes to capacity on the fly also very good. Data collection can be time-consuming. Overall a very good software. Pros What-if capability, setup of work orders, visual scheduling board, being able to quickly drill down to find a root cause of why the project is running behind. Cons Data collection very time-consuming to make corrections, not able to collect man and machine time for employees working on multiple machines, spend a lot of time closing and opening system when changes are made, a lot of time spent with programming on the creation and changing of reports.

February 8, 2017 5.0 Before we used JobPack, we were still manually opening and tracking jobs. As can be imagined, this was an immense headache as we continued to grow. JobPack has allowed us to plan our schedule so that it works for us instead of the other way around. They have always been helpful if we have any problems. Pros Ease of use, customer service.

President Medical Devices Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Job Shop Using JobPACK" November 30, 2016 5.0 We recently installed JobPACK Scheduling and plan to install the live event monitoring in the next 12 months. The installation went smoothly. The service technicians and training personnel were always professional and timely with their responses. The package is very versatile and the staff is open to suggestions for improvements and our customization. I would recommend them to anyone. Pros Very flexible Just focused on scheduling Customized Data interchange between our ERP and JobPACK. Great Training Staff. Knows product well and the manufacturing industry. Cons Don't have any.

Food & Beverages Used the software for: ### "I helped implement and have used almost all aspects of JobPack in our company" April 14, 2014 4.5 Pros I like the visibility of production going through its operations and also the visibility of the shop floor equipment. Also, the product is versatile and can be customized to meet the company's needs, along with integration with other MRP/ERP software. Cons Speed is one area where I feel the product could improve. It takes a little time to recalculate after each move. When making multiple moves, it will align the delivery dates in reverse order on the schedule board. I understand the logic given behind why it happens, but the outcome is still wrong. Review Source TR Tim R. Operations Manager Mining & Metals Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Scheduling for Tool making" May 10, 2016 4.5 Pros Fast, easy to use, visual and accurate and also provided sfdc functions Cons ERP integration needs a lot of detailed input. we added amterials and tooling that we thought our erp system could handle Review Source ML Mike L. Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing Used the software for: ### "Masterful Scheduling with Ease" March 28, 2014 4.5 Pros JobPack Scheduling Software is easy to use. It provides complete control of your schedule and can reschedule in minutes. It's what-if capabilities give complete understanding of how changes impact an individual order, as well as all the other orders in the schedule. It shows it in an easy-to-understand format and allows us to contact customers based on decisions made during our scheduling sessions. Cons Like all scheduling products, it has to have accurate routing information for it to be effective. Review Source RD Ronald D. IT Applications Analyst Mining & Metals Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great Support - Almost Bulletproof Operation" October 24, 2016 5.0 We use JobPack via our terminal servers and it is nearly bulletproof in operation. It just runs and runs without issue. Pros Support from JobPack is great. Always responsive and very helpful. My rep is a pleasure to work with, cheerful and always willing to help. Review Source BH Brandon H. Vice President Mining & Metals Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Decent product for the price" November 30, 2016 3.0 We currently use this software daily. It is a great beginner software for a small shop. Pros I like the fact that it only focuses on scheduling. Cons It is not the easiest to use. It also has mispelling through out the software.

Operations Manager Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "AWESOME COMPANY" November 30, 2016 5.0 We were looking for a scheduling software program for years and we saw JobPak.
