### "ProCalV5 suits needs for multi-national companies regarding instrument management"

June 15, 2020

4.0

One package for instrument management for basically all labs and locations world-wide within the company. Working with the limitations of (our version of) the package in mind, it provide us a tool to have overview throughout the company about the status of the equipment, ánd which equipment is available at the different labs.

Pros

We needed a package (2010!) that could work with different locations of the company world-wide and secure each location from the others. ProCalV5 was (at that moment) the only package that provide this option.

Cons

It was a difficult package to learn all ins and outs myself and still I don't know all options that are included (need to say that we stopped rather (too) quickly with downloading and installing updates/upgrades, so we also miss some interesting options from more recent upgrades).

Reason for choosing ProCal

ProCalV5 was not the best option regarding user friendliness and "looks & feel", but it was the only package in which we could include instruments of any location in a separate sub-database and assigning different rights to different user groups to limit access and/or actions per location.

### "Great Calibration management software"

April 29, 2020

5.0

ProcalV5 give our organization a great solution to manage and run calibration in our facility. I am very pleased with the software and what it can offer. The customization of the software is big thing! We can setup for our needs.

Pros

This software is easy to use, very intuitive. It has all the features that all other, more expensive brands are having.

Cons

I am at this point of using this software, that I have not found anything that I dont like about it.

### "ProCal user for 10+ years"

April 19, 2022

5.0

Since its wasn't really covered earlier the tech support is great. We don't really need to use tech support much as ProCal is a stable product but when we do Tech Support is Prompt Fast Friendly!

Pros

Digital signatures and records, Easy to use, reverse traceability,

Cons

Not really a problem of the software but our company has gone to a standard 14 inch laptop screen. This smaller screen does decreases the visibility of text. Our techs are typically working from a cart so they are standing up which increases the viewing distance. While sitting and using ProCal the text is fine.

Reason for choosing ProCal

I cant recall a specific reason but it seemed right for our company. I feel it was the best choice and I am glad we chose ProCal.

### "ProCalV5 is Worthy of Consideration"

July 2, 2020

5.0

My primary role is performing quality review and approvals in the system. Once configured, the system is very easy to use and is 21CFR Part 11 compliant. The system is reliable and you can trust that the data that goes in is protected and easy to retrieve. Working with Prime Tech to validate our system configuration has been extremely informative and our assigned project manager has been amazing to work with. We have been very satisfied with Prime Technologies and the ProCalV5 Software.

Pros

Once you set the configurations, the software is very straight forward and easy to use. The ability to search and print reports for auditing is a breeze.

Cons

The fact that supporting documentation is dealt with in the form of a link instead of housed within the software. Those links can be broken easily if there is sub-standard controls in place for storage locations.

### "Calibration Management Software "

November 18, 2021

5.0

Very good support structure for implementing this software and able to quickly respond to questions that we have. Software is easy to use and meeting required compliance requirement for calibration management

Pros

The ProCal Direct, it’s easy, and it saves us time and money on calibration and maintenance operations for the entire plant site. If you plant preventive maintenance and manage ISO and FDA compliance, will recommend to have ProCal Direct. Prime Technologies Inc and ProCal Systems Asia as a group able to provide quality product, quality support, and knowledge of the product is very good.

Cons

Reporting should improved to dashboard style where in overview is available for the various parameters like outstanding calibration day wise, plantwise etc.

### "Procal Review"

September 29, 2020

5.0

The only problem was using a company other than Prime Technologies for the migration. Used a 3rd party and there were huge problems in the migration. Should have used Prime Technologies for the migration.

Pros

Software is great and does exactly what we need to be compliant.

Cons

Some small insignificant searching factors such as keystroke searching. Also the the drop downs for the units in the calibration data points. needs refined.

Reason for choosing ProCal

I was not involved in this decision.

My experience with ProCalV5 have been outstanding. I would greatly recommend this CCMS to anyone

Pros

I love the fact that ProCalV5 forces compliance. I also love that it is a completely paperless CCMS

Cons

The only issues I have ever experienced is that it can be a bit slow sometimes. That is the only real problem I have ever ran into

It is a bit overwhelming at the beginning, because of all the features. Break it down in little pieces and once you are comfortable with an area move to the next one. The technical support is always there to help with any questions during any phase of the implementation.

Pros

\* Customer Service is always exceptional \* The software has endless features, so it not only supports our current needs but it has a lot of room to grow \* Extremely flexible to customize it to your company needs \* Customized data migration process from our old calibration software

Cons

Have not found one yet

Once you get the program up and running its a great way to track information. The earlier on you start using it the better.

Pros

Excellent program for keeping track of Equipment calibrations/PMs/repairs. A lot of information can be stored for each institutions equipment profile.

Cons

A lot of lists to set up, and a lot of fields to fill out, very repetitive unless you have Admin utitlity to make lists avaialble for all institutions.

Has helped us bring together our records nicely. Very convenient to have our entire customer base and their assets all under one system. Asset management and evaluation possibilites are powerful. Search Query is extremely valuable.

Cons

Would love to be able to edit notes under instruments and be able to change customer names.

First off, ProCalV5 is the most robust Calibration Management System on the market. It not only allows you to track, maintain, and schedule calibration but you can track spare parts, manage PM's and Work Orders as well. We have used ProCalV5 for 2 years now after looking at several different software packages. There is nothing better than ProCalV5.

### "One of the best and robust software I have ever used"

February 27, 2020

5.0

I will suggest all users which are critical to Information security for Calibration data management. Critical to quality industries like, Pharmaceuticals, Automotive, Oil & Gas, Health care, Power and Nuclear industries should obviously choose this great product.

Pros

One the best part of this software its cover maximum areas for assets management of any organization of any size along with Calibration data management. Its features are so modern and helpful which help to implement Industry 4.0, in respect of asset management, validation, compliance to the system requirement and keep the management upto date always in all respect. Its wireless utility is so powerful which can transfer data irrespective of modern devices directly to the server or user can opt for Cloud features also for the ProCalVCloud. Its authentication features in each & every level is tremendous and its help the organization from any kind of data manipulation and data breaches. Which is most crucial part for any organizational data management.

Cons

Price is little bit higher side compare to any local product. But compare to the features & services available and crucial to the system, its value for money.

Reason for choosing ProCal

Its features, its customer support and over all experiences.

### "We've been pleased with the functionality of the system."

March 8, 2018

The software provides the required tracking and documentation to ensure our facility remains regulatory compliant.

Pros

The system provides a reliable schedule for executing equipment calibrations. The software allows for the tracking and execution of PMs and work orders.

Cons

The approval terminology is a little confusing determining between finalized and approved documents. This requires understand for those in the process.

### "Review of ProCalV5"

January 31, 2011

4.0

The program is easy to use. It meets the needs I have for the calibration of customer instruments. Technical help has been very good.

Pros

Well organized. Easy to move from one field to another, and understand interaction between them. Relatively easy to use. CONS that do not fit below: Rather than providing the initial calibration program without defaults, I think it would help to discuss defaults with the purchaser and set some basic ones for the customer before sending providing the software.

Cons

I do not like the fact that the NOTES can not be modified once they are saved, report not finalized. It would be helpful if you could modify an INSTRUMENT record and have that change show in calibrations that have not been finalized. Occasionly, we find an error in the way we entered an INSTRUMENT record when we enter the calibration; have to take an instrument out of a WORK ORDER, change the INSTRUMENT record and then put the instrument back into the WORK ORDER again. The order that is presented in WORK ORDER and CALIBRATION records (numerical, asending) should be changed to decending. Most often you are looking for a new record, not the first one you did. Difficult to add or modify REPORTS for our needs. NOTES, It would be nice to have a note entered in the INSTRUMENT record that could be selected to always show in the calibration notes for that instrument.

### "Excellent Calibration Software and Customer Service"

August 13, 2014

5.0

ProCalV5 is the best software I have researched and implemented, and there have been quite a few by now. There are many pros that come to mind, the following are the most important for our organization: \* Extreme flexibility to customize the software to your needs, like changing field names or adding many user defined fields. \* Never ending list of features. You can use it as a basic calibration recall system with the minimum information you need or go all the way to Gages R&R. \* Very user friendly and you can customize different level of access for group of employees or individual employees. \* Excellent customer support, from the staff that works with you to import your existing data into the system, to the trainers to the tech support folks, when you have an issue or need help. The response time is just amazing. \* If your organization needs a particular feature or change in the software they will work with you to make it happen. \* ProCalV5 is not just a tool calibration software, it is also a equipment maintenance software. It is so flexible that we are actually using it to manage our inspectors mandatory eye exams. \* Great audit trial, reminders, calibration/maintenance history, etc. They are great tools for your ISO/AS certification, employee accountability and not forgetting anything. \* Multi-site option, allowing you to manage tools/equipment segregated by site and the level of access of employees or different sites. Regarding cons, I can not really think of any. Whenever there has been something that we have liked the software to do differently (I can think of once or twice in several years) the ProCalV5 folks have made it happen.
