E2 Shop System vs. Zoho One

E2 Shop System is great for backlog and shipment summaries, which our organization uses it for every single day. We also use E2 Shop System to enter new jobs and to keep track of them until they gets shipped. E2 Shop System is also very good at keeping track of partial shipments; it has the option to make partial packing slips so that we make them for exact amount of parts we shipping. E2 Shop System also helps us to create a router, which goes on the shop floor with each individual job that shows all that needs to be done with for that particular job. There is an improvement required when it comes to the production schedule. It does the job for now but it doesn't notify when we are running late on jobs--it needs to be done manually currently.

Out of 1-10, my likelihood to recommend score is a 1, but only because zero wasn't an option; however, if it was, that would have been my choice. We already renewed for 2023, but are already making plans to migrate to another platform in Q4 and cancel at the end of this renewal.

• E2 is very user friendly. Once configured, users can start using without a long training time. We implemented in stages so they would not get overwhelmed.
• E2 has a ton of reports available. We print time tracking on a daily basis to review hours and steps during manufacturing.
• E2 allows you to customize reports using Crystal Reports to allow you to get the information you need out of the reports.

• CRM integrates nicely using our Zapier environment.
• The Lead to Contact/Account Conversion is very intuitive.
• Deals, Sales Orders, and Contract Zoho Sign work well together.

• Support what's purchased, after our purchase was made, I never heard from them again.
• To reiterate I believe the software is excellent but if you have any support issues, you're done.

Incentivized

• The integration is loose and needs to be more stable and a true integration
• Development appears to take long periods of time to bring customer enhancements into the next release. I have seen numerous obvious business application needs to be brought to the attention that is still 2-3 years old without an update
• Unified User Interface and back end functionality/configuration across applications

It is extremely easy to learn and use E2 Shop System. It provides everything a manufacturing company might be looking for, starting from entering a new PO to shipping parts. Routers that get created from E2 Shop System also help track parts on the shop floor and is accessible from every where. E2 Shop System also now has an app, which is great when it comes to scanning router steps directly from your phone.

While the software is easy to use and pick up, the different user interfaces and limits across the application make it difficult and slow to implement additional applications quickly and seamlessly across the organization. If the User interface was more consistent we would be able to pick up and train on new apps more efficiently

E2 Shop System has great customer service, which will provide you support in less than 24 hours. They even help you train on new and updated features if you're not aware. Overall, we are very happy with E2 Shop System.

Support is great as a customer, as a partner I get moved to that team more often and find issues in the support being provided. It also appears that the support agents do not take into account all the information provided and default back to the "step 1 of the playbook" instead of taking into account the business reason the support is being requested and understanding the steps already taken.

E2 seemed to be more user friendly and offered more modules and integration into our quickbooks program. We were able to import all of our customers and vendors easily. This was the main selling point on E2.

During the Demo, Zoho One performed well; however, post-implementation - the product has fallen short on all fronts.

• E2 almost put us out of business
• We certainly had no ROI
• It was a poor decision on our part to choose E2

Incentivized

• It has had an overall negative impact since we migrated from HubSpot due to the overall lack of support.
• Our users are frustrated with the complexity and lack of consistency in the admin portals.
• CRM is the only tool that is ready for business at scale.
