Pros

I like that this program can hold data for so many items and it is easy to search for stuff. I also like that the % sign can narrow down your search to a certain word.

Cons

When entering data for an item and you need to go back a page, sometimes it brings you all the way back instead of to just the last page which is a little inconvenient.

La herramienta para generar indicadores debería ser más sencilla de utilizar

Pros

El modulo de auditoria interna, facilidad de notificar actividades a realzar y mandar recordatios al personal

Cons

Es dificil implementar sobre todo si la empresa cuenta con colaboradores de una edad avanzada. Algunos modulos requieren de mejoras, no se puede colocar logos de la empresa, no se pueden adaptar los nombres de los programas segùn se requiera en cualquier empresa. Las herramienta para generar indicadores es complicada de utilizar sobre todo si esta en idioma ingles pues no todo el personal maneja al 100% el idioma

Reasons for choosing Ideagen Food & Beverage

Fue la empresa que tenia mejor desarrollado el sistemas además de ser recocido por BRCGS en lo cual las empresas de la moderna estamos cerficadas

We have been with SF360 since 2014 and even went to the 1st annual Safefood 360 Conference in New Orleans. My experience has been 90% positive.

Pros

The ability to customize most modules but specifically the supplier approval program.

Cons

Customization of the modules can be difficult and time consuming. The custom reporting is a bit buggy at times. Some information can skew the statistics and trends. For instance, in the complaint module there is a spot to put the "Company" and in that slot you can put our company, the customer or the supplier. For a distribution company like ours that deal with customer, supplier and other complaints, there should be separate lines for that information so it can be tracked and trended properly.

Reasons for choosing Ideagen Food & Beverage

Overall very good experience.

Pros

being able to move many paper and manual spreadsheet/databases into SF360 has improved workflow and reduced a large amount of duplicate and unnecessary work.

Cons

Modules that were in development were one of the deciding factors in choosing this platform over others, those modules still have not been completed.

Reasons for choosing Ideagen Food & Beverage

The specification management and ability to make COAs, which has not happened. Also, only tech solution with BRC code integrated.

great tool but could be better

Pros

it is a one stop shop for all data that we use exclusively for supplier management and approval

Cons

The fact that some data within the questionnaires are not searchable. I would live to be able to have a grid of suppliers that answers yes to a certain question or have a certain key word in the answers. Also have had issues that the suppliers can remove data and documents that are not in the document controlled list but are part of assessments that is attached prior to submitting . Once attached it should not be removeable. it should be locked in

Reasons for choosing Ideagen Food & Beverage

it was flexible in terms of supplier approval questions and the ability to pick and choose modules of use rather than an overall system
