### "Great Shop Control System"

June 21, 2017

5.0

Pros

Runs lightning fast. Shoptech support is second to none. E2 has been vital to our business and can't imagine how we would have gotten along without it.

Cons

Would be nice to be able to have open multiple sections of the software. Something like tabs or the ability to minimize a window to check something else without opening another instance of the software.

### "Very easy to use software - good process flow"

August 16, 2017

5.0

Pros

All areas of the shop are integrated. Very easy to train new hires on the software, and customer service and technical support and very good.

Cons

The software is a little expensive so if you are a new shop you may not be able to purchase it right away for a start up. But you can buy license as you need so you don't waist money on seats you don't need

### "Iteration used is out of date and not conducive with todays tech needs"

July 6, 2018

2.0

We do not have most recent iteration of E2's shop tech system.

Pros

Usability as a job shop ERP system. Not all ERP systems can serve as a job shop companies ERP system.

Cons

High implementation cost forces users to use for a long time and not upgrade to a new system that contains cloud systems every couple of years. Interface is slow, confusing and not friendly to use.

4.5

We are a Custom Manufacturing "Job Shop" with about 42 employees. We have been in business since 1975, and this is the third manufacturing software we have used. We chose E2 Shoptech back in 2010, going live beginning of 2011. We selected this software due to ease of use and affordability, mainly. Our previous software had a glitch in the Quoting Module, making it very difficult for our Project Managers to use. Our installation and implementation went very smoothly with E2. We did send a few people for the key training at their CT facility, and were able to go live with the software in a short period of time. Our consultants were extremely helpful during the whole process. The Technical Support people are great! You are able to get immediate assistance, and their website has a lot of information, as well. We had a customized report that was showing some discrepancies between that data and the data on other canned reports in E2. I sent them a copy of our database, and they had to do some extensive research. They were able to come back to me within a day or two with results. They helped us adjust what we do on our end to make the information more accurate on the customized report. I highly recommend this software to manufacturing companies. We use E2's Accounting Module, as well. For the Executives in your company, they will love the Executive Overview in QuickView--which is a great place to go for all kinds of information at your fingertips! Everything you need to run your business is available to you!

### "Great Customer Service"

November 19, 2019

One of the best benefits is the customer service. When ever I need to call they are quick to help and even call to check up and make sure things are still working out.

Pros

This software is easy to use and I enjoy how the PO system keeps everything organized.

Cons

Sometimes its closes out by its self, to where I have to log back in and start over.

### "A good easy to use ERP for the small and medium sized business, with fantastic support."

August 28, 2018

4.0

Pros

E2 is really easy to use and get setup for your company, especially if you run a job shop. It has comprehensive features to allow you to track time and jobs. From quoting, all the way to post production, it has you covered. It also has semi-automated integration with Quickbooks, to help keep your financials in line with operations.

Cons

User interface is extremely dated and will not scale for large enterprise.

### "Great tool for the shop"

November 25, 2015

4.5

Pros

The product has allowed us to keep track of our jobs and have them organized. It has streamlined our process and has cut the time it takes for us to get going. The vendor answers questions in a timely manner. They also have a lot of videos on their website that answers a lot of the questions you might have.

Cons

I am not a fan of the fact that some of the more important aspect of the product are not explained in the videos. For example, the quality module is touched upon but not necessarily explained. If a person buys a module, I feel the vendor should have some free classes to make sure people are using it correctly. I don't think it's right to sell something but not offer free help when you first purchase it.

August 16, 2017

4.0

No

Pros

Keeps things organized, does most of what we need.

Cons

Limits you on description areas, Reports are hard to do since we use QuickBooks. Not full blown to where we can use it for everything. Maintanence fees are way to high. Service over the phone depends on who you get some people know more than others to help you through a problem.

### "GC Custom Metal - E2 User Since 2010"

March 4, 2015

4.0

Pros

As more modules become implemented, the system builds in a synergistic way and adds more value and organization to our operations. The system allows us a lot of control over our process and becomes a great tool that can be used to train new people to the business, completing their role correctly and consistently with existing employees. With E2, our sales team always has instant information and history on any past customer transactions and can reference old orders and data very quickly and easily.

Cons

We are limited to what the system can or cannot do; sometimes, we need to change and conform to work within it's capabilities. We are still struggling with challenges on scheduling employees vs work centers.

April 25, 2018

During the web base quoting process, cust rep was very patient in answering questions and working with us to understand all aspects of the new software!

Pros

Every company has different data needs. Shop-tech allows for good customization when the need comes up.

Cons

There does not seem to be many report options that come standard. Forces us to customize many reports.

JobBOSS has made my daily work routine much easier. Everything can be managed by one software. Purchasing, scheduling, employee time tracking, costing all in one place. The customer support is great. Anytime we've had a question or problem they are quick to respond and help us resolve the issue. JobBOSS has been the perfect fit for our organization and we are continuing to expand upon the base package we started with.

I think the overall experience of the E2 Shop System has been great. I really simplifies the day to day tasks in the office.

Pros

I just love the E2 Shop Sysstem software becuse it is so easy to use. The Icon view makes navigating through the system a breeze.

Cons

I think the lease thing I like about the system is the cost.
