Pros Easy to access/locate/update information. I never worry about follow-up anymore Cons Time invested in set up of corporate individuality of site. Review Source SO Shawn O. Sr Principal Programmer Analyst Defense & Space Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The best QMS" September 30, 2019 4.0 Always responsive customer support. Extremely configurable, perhaps too much so. Pros Transparency of database, ability to see/use the underlying data. Ability to write custom loads for data. Cons Database lacking constraints/keys (real PK, not just PK in name only). Disparate behavior between modules. Disposition of defects. Our BU/process still wants to disposition items and that creates vey messy data and stupid workarounds. Alternatives considered [Solumina MES](https://www.capterra.com/p/68774/Solumina/) Reason for choosing TIPQA Already in place, proven. We've been encouraged to switch to Solumina but the users/administrators resisted as solumina just does not deliver the level of detail that they have grown accustomed and it was simply not an option. Switched from [SmartSolve](https://www.capterra.com/p/106668/SmartSolve/) TIPQA was already in place for several other business units, Pilgrim was being depreciated Review Source JO James O.

Pros Nonconformance module captures a lot of data. querying and data visualization are TIPQA's strongpoint, you are able to know exactly what happened with audit trails and can limit access with security group/application settings Cons user interface is non-intuitive (very hard to train how to use to someone who never used before or are not software inclined), software bugs happen often, especially in SFE. Review Source Response from Deltek September 20, 2019 Thank you for providing a review of our software. We count on valuable feedback from our customers to help us improve our application. Our recently released TIPQA web solution has an entirely new user interface that is more intuitive and designed to support critical business processes. Several of our users are making the transition with ease. We would be happy to help you adopt the latest version of TIPQA to ensure that you have access to the latest functionality. SU Scott U. Supplier Quality Engineer - Sr Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing Used the software for: 2+ years ### "TIPQA" September 6, 2019 4.0 The biggest problems we are solving are related to going paperless. Pros The breath of functionality and integration that is available with the ability to operate as a Supplier Management application is what I like most. The software does offer choices for level of control in many areas of QMS management. TIPQA provides an updated "electronic software solution" for most QMS systems that a currently using standard forms and quality records completed using paper. Cons Several major softawre problems that cause non compliances for AS, ISo, etc such as sample sizes going to zero, part master attributes not populating, cost not properly updating and file attachments not working. Also, several of the really nice features are very limited as they were designed for a targeted purpose. The use of feedback from other customers as well as slightly more thought and commitment from the TIPQA side could have allowed for the development of very useful and sellable features. The transition to TIPQAWEB and the onboarding of new customers has become distracting of TIPQA resource, support, and priority. Reason for choosing TIPQA Breath of covergae Review Source Response from Deltek September 20, 2019 We appreciate your valuable feedback and assure you that our software development is driven by the needs of our users. Paperless shop floor functionality can be achieved using our TIPSFE solution. While it is true that the transition to TIPQA Web has become a priority based on the value it brings to our user base, we continue to fully support our clients on previous versions of TIPQA.

We are many versions behind, and there is resistance to request support to upgrade after our Oracle DBA left our company several years ago. OTHERWISE, Great Product, I would recommend to ANYONE. Pros Modules connected, and interfaced with ERP, HIGHLY auditable, no hiding data, very logical setup Cons Our version 7.5.2 (old version) is still client/server architecture, and has some bugs (that have ALL been corrected by Tip in later versions), somewhat bulky, and has some glitches with Windows 10 (not certified for Windows 10). Reason for choosing TIPQA at the time (1999 lol), ease of use, and much better interface. Review Source RY Robby Y. Quality Manager Defense & Space Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Klunky and not intuitive" September 6, 2019 2.0 TipQA creates problems....with people, with data entry and with analytics Pros Hard to find a positive. Even this review made me add on extra characters to this cell before i could submit the review. I imagine the software developer for TipQA designed this survey as well Cons Not user friendly. Not customizable. Doesn't integrate well with existing systems. Requires a lot of energy to incorporate and maintain/keep updated. Crashes a lot if search is too extensive. Little to no integrated statistics using the data captured. Awful overall. Reason for choosing TIPQA Inherited it from my predecessor Review Source DH Diana H. Quality Auditor Aviation & Aerospace Used the software for: 2+ years ### "TipQA Review" September 25, 2019 5.0 We are coming out of the paper world where everything was on hard copy. Pros The convenience of having all the quality records in one place and ease of access. Cons When configuring the software I don't like that you have to add or remove items one at a time instead of selecting and highlighting a selection and deleting all at once. Such as changing audit criteria, one at a time has to be removed instead of a line of items. Reason for choosing TIPQA My company already had TipQA in place at other facilities. Review Source BX Bin X. IS Project Leader Airlines/Aviation Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Suggestion" October 8, 2019 5.0 Pros 1\. Full quality control process implement in this system, it help our company to follow ISO standard 2. Full module support Cons 1\. Now we are running TipQA 7.6 version, all users need to login system via client, is there any solution to access system in web directly? 2. Review Source SS Sarah S. Supplier Quality Manager - US Aviation & Aerospace Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Not a timely solution" September 25, 2019 3.0 Pros I like having all of our supplier management information in one location. Cons The slow availability of the portal solution which is causing us to build our own in-house solution. We also have a difficult time changing/adding fields needed to customize for other areas of our business. Review Source AV Allan V. Sr. IT Business Partner Mining & Metals Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Better Integration Required" October 9, 2019 3.0 Pros Auditable documentation for Supplier Rating and Corrective Action Cons No Integration with Active Directory. Significant effort to maintain users and hierarchy Review Source Similar Products Featured ## Send me user reviews about this product ### Fill out the form and we'll send a list of the top-rated software based on real user reviews directly to your inbox.
