PartsBox is a tool for managing electronic parts and production. It keeps track of where components are stored, what the current stock levels are, and which parts are used in which projects. It displays specs, allows for attaching documents (datasheets, 3D CAD models) to parts, and searches the entire database quickly. With lot control, it is possible to track where specific batches of parts came from and where they were used, providing full two-way tracking for Medical/Pharma applications. ## What is PartsBox used for?

BG Bhanuka G.

We understand the overall ratio of component usage, order components based on planned consumption. Every component is linked to manufactures datasheets and footprints. We have synchronized our flow, from ordering to production with partsbox. It has a web interface. Accessible anywhere, any device. We check and update stocks with the use of a tablet. Pros Tracking stock movement history of any components, lets us track any wastage or consumption. Links with actual products datasheets, packages, from manufacturers data. Cons Price for monthly package with more features is high for a small business.

Maker Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing ### "Best option for independent makers" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 4.0 4.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 August 3, 2019 I am a hobbyist synth maker and after trying several BOM tools I decided to classify all the components I buy and store with PartsBox. I'm using the free plan which is limited to 3000 different components and 1000 "locations". If I had this volume I think that the tool would be even more useful, but I would not be a hobbyist. At the moment I have 162 parts and 82 storage locations. You can name the locations with freedom (even create patterns to batch creation). So I have several columns of drawers (some with separators, some without) and my chose was to name it as follows: \[Column number\]\[Drawer from top\]-\[Compartment from left to right and bottom to top\]. Example: if the location is "23-05" means that the component is in the second drawer column, the third drawer from the top and the fifth compartment. When I added drawers if I put them in any position I can rename the existing locations affected without affecting their content. So total flexibility with almost zero learning curve. There are features that I've not tried in a real situation yet (BOMs, Projects, meta-components, all available in the free version) but all seems valuable too. Totally recommended. Pros \- Instantly usable - Intuitive - Flexible workflow - Free plan - Periodic useful updates Cons \- Only integration with Kicad but you can export in "CSV" standard format.

Lots of functionality in regards to part number data available, bom management and builds. Cons Scanning has been a hard part but they worked really hard their latest version implemented webcam based scanning and it seems promising definetly better than the traditional scanners which gave lots of issues for us. Can't wait to try it out. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.

Director Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing ### "Great stock management software for electronics" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 May 7, 2019 Until I found PartsBox, we used Excel spreadsheets. These spreadsheets were compiled for each build, but it was extremely difficult to get an overall idea of stock counts. Many parts are identical across different products and as a result some of our components are "over-stocked". With PartsBox we get a much better idea of stock and stock value. Also costing of products are much easier. We are also contract manufacturers/designers. Sometimes clients buy the components and we handle the logistics. With PartsBox clients are now "forced" to give costing of all components they buy and this gives us also a better understanding of the overall product costs. This, in turn, helps us to make better design changes to reduce costs. Pros The software is very easy and intuitive to use. I like the meta part concept. We often buy different parts (depending on price) for the same conceptual part. The database was nicely designed. I also like the fact that projects can be used sub-assemblies. Clearly, a lot of thought went into this software. Well done! Cons Not really found any specific issues up to now.

Hobbyist Maker Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing ### "A Perfect Tool for the Hobbyist Maker" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 March 5, 2019 I am a hobbyist maker and had never felt the need for a stock management tool for my components until a few months ago, but as the number of different parts reached the hundreds, I started to keep forgetting to order what I had run out of or could just not remember where I had put that particular component. Of course this led to delays in assembly and shipping of the boards I sell, so I started to think I needed some help in managing my stock. So I looked at what I could find on the web. Being a Linux user, desktop applications were basically ruled out, as most are Windows-only. There were a few web-based solutions and PartsBox looked the most interesting: it had a free plan and most of its features seemed to match what I was expecting out of this kind of tool, so I registered and started populating my virtual warehouse. This took literally days (and is not 100% done yet, after three months!), but it was definitely worth it, as now I know exactly what I have in stock at any moment, I know how many of my boards I can build and I can check what I am running out of in a pinch. What I liked most about PartsBox is that it seems to have all the features I need, and they are all easy to get used to. As I said before, I had never used a stock management tool, but I did not need to study and invest a lot of time in learning to use PartsBox, as everything I feel a need for is there, only a few mouse clicks away. This means that the interface was carefully designed to match the needs Pros \+ Ease of use + Quick and immediate interface + Number and placement of features + Kicad import + Data export + Author responsiveness Cons \- Lack of a low-cost paid plan - Cannot easily move parts from the Storage View Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.

CTO Consumer Electronics ### "Great tool " 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 March 5, 2019 We have been using PartsBox for 5 months to keep track of inventory and to plan production runs. It has made a huge difference and gone are the days of trying to do production planning in Excel. PartsBox has quickly become a central part of running our business. Pros It was easy to get up and running. It is really great for electronic parts bought from distributors. It reads the bag labels from DIgi-key and others which makes it quick to enter parts into inventory. When we do a production run we can quickly see what we need to order and generate purchasing orders. There is decent support for production (called builds). The tech support is fantastic. Cons We use quite a bit of fabricated parts, i.e. parts like molded plastic enclosures, stamped or extruded metal parts etc. that we order from subcontractors or factories. The support for these kind of parts is much less complete.
