    EnterpriseIQ is very well suited to a company in the plastics industry as the core software would not need to be modified.

    Synoptix has been great for us to allow end users access to the data and information they need to make informed decisions without letting them have full access to all ERP functions. It has also been very easy to create custom reports that meet our needs. It is also nimble enough to create quick reports that are needed with a small turnaround

    Pros
    Dassault Systemes
    • I like how they show the employee information
    • The auto reports are nice to be able to set up and not think about again
    • The GL display is average

    • Easy report building interface with an query interface that allows financial users the ability to conduct complex queries without difficulty.
    • The ability to create reporting that allows us to review in-depth financial review by drilling down into accounts to find transnational data easily.
    • Easily maintained and monitored with simple upgrade installations and end point installation.
    • Great knowledge base for review and trouble-shooting.
    • Highly knowledgeable and easy to work with staff.

    Cons
    Dassault Systemes
    • Accounting reports: accrued receipts reporting makes it difficult to reconcile.
    • Fixed assets: depreciation posts to the general ledger at the asset level, generating inordinately large numbers of relatively meaningless transactions.
    • Process cost: PIT display lacks many useful fields, including vendor name and number.
    • Financial reports carry beyond two decimal places.
    • Report structures are not sensibly arranged, and many reports imbed data within text fields, making manipulation and reporting more time-consuming.

    Synoptix
    • It has a poor install procedure which is not standard. It almost requires copying folders from an existing computer to the new install.
    • The update process is less than desirable. It seems like Compusoft needs to do a better job of testing before releasing updates.
    • The interface is a bit archaic. It looks more like a program from 20 years ago than one used today.

    Usability
    Dassault Systemes
    The menu system is easy to navigate and intuitive for users. The learning curve for administrators is quite steep form setting up user permissions to creating reports for users. This is a very powerful system with many dynamics to help most companies. Expandability is always there and it comes down to how granular you would like your company to be on a data gathering/reporting and material flow process.

    It didn't take long to learn how it works and has always been easy to navigate and accomplish all that we have needed. Whenever there have been any issues Synopotix has been great to address them in a timely manner and have always been able to resolve the issues we have had

    Implementation Rating
    Dassault Systemes
    It is nice that an IQMS employee helps you with the implementation, however they were more of a technical resource than a project management resource. I wish they could provide a more off the shelf timeline given their experience in implementing the system.

    This is the only software that I have used so I am unable to rate it based on another type of software. My experience with IQ is extensive though, and have worked and learned in all areas and love how this program works. The many different modules are relatively easy to learn and they offer support if you need additional instruction.

    Synoptix is more oriented to users as their own developers. You do not need to understand any sort of coding or languages. If you are working in financials you just need to know your trial balance. The menus and programing are so user friendly the programming is "kinda obvious"

    Return on Investment
    Dassault Systemes
    • Our implementation of warehouse management was probably the best investment our company has made recently. The control gained over our inventory is a tremendous asset and allows to see in an instant whether or not we can meet our customers' demands.

    • As a reporting tool it has allowed us to make fact based decisions. We have a significant annual cost with relation to our legacy system and Synoptix provides us with the best tool to mine the data that resides in our legacy system.
