Thrive is an inventory management software offering from Thrive Technologies. It is built to help distribution and retail companies needing to improve demand forecasting, and it helps inventory replenishment functionality in ERP systems.
We've run Global Shop Solutions ERP in several different business models and all of them have worked well. Repair: this is primarily customer supplied material, always new situations that are assessed AFTER the product arrives. Job Shop: These jobs are less guesswork, but still different every time. Engineering BOM's: These are a lot of assembly, less machining, but a huge amount of work in setting up the BOM's. Repeat Jobs: There are slight variations, but the overall process remains the same for all parts. In all 4 business situations Global Shop Solutions ERP has been able to meet the need, albeit differently. This is the strongest indicator that Global Shop Solutions ERP will work in MOST situations. Their flexibility makes everything possible.

For our small hospital, the cost of the operation is a great value. Like any EHR, there are going to be limitations. Our hospital is not part of a larger health system, so did not have the pressure of spending more money to have a system which fed into a larger organization, so it works for us in this capacity. With so many hospitals jumping on EHRs like Epic and Oracle, it seems like this has only increased the overall cost of healthcare. [...] does also have a great revenue cycle component to it that expands across other EHRs. In the past, Thrive Technologies was a all encompassing system, but like most has a separate payroll system and now separate GL that you could also add. This is indicative of the software in general for healthcare unfortunately.

The fact that it is always live and updating constantly is very helpful to our processes.
The cross-module integration is seamless, allowing for what has been done in one department to populate into the fields of another screen quickly.
I cannot say enough about the support team both through the 800 number and through our CI Manager, and the weekly "Friday Features" learning opportunities. If you don't learn the system it is because you have not put forth any effort whatsoever.

Although it's simpler than many alternatives, it's a highly complex system and at times we felt lost during the transition period.
We didn't get the results we had imagined when looking at their case studies and marketing materials. I understand many factors go into those things, and their case studies are not necessarily indicative of typical results, but your mileage may vary.
Inventory replenishment alerts about potential stockouts weren't always reliable.

Still a bit clunky from the DOS days. It is always improving and has done so a lot recently but I still feel like the origins of the software weigh down the user experience when compared to software that employ more modern drag and drop, windows type cut and paste functions, or other Windows features that old DOS systems do not enjoy. The tip off for that is just how critical smart keys are in helping a user get through the screens.

Depending on what subsystem, I think some work much better than others. For example on the patient accounting side, it is fairly easy to use, but does require a couple extra keystrokes. On the clinical side, I have heard similar statements. On the financial/accounts payable side, it is easier to use, while there are scenarios in which it would be nice to have a few more features.

While I'm able to handle most service questions from my users, if I'm not available, calling GSS is typically a 10-15 minute call and the problem is solved for them. I am a super user of GSS because I'm the ERP manager and I have been using it for over 10 years. With that said, if I reach out to service, it's a BIG problem. I appreciate that even in those instances GSS is quick to grab data and get me off the phone to research it on their own. If it's a problem stopping work, they're all hands on deck to get us back running, but in most instances, I don't need that. I need them to investigate, find a fix, and get back to me while I'm able to keep working on other things. They are very good at not wasting my time and for that, I really appreciate them.

We moved to Global Shop Solutions ERP from Visual. Even though the table structure in Visual was easier to learn, we gained a lot more visibility into things with Global Shop Solutions ERP. Visual was difficult to customize, you were required to use the consultant they assigned you, and anything not done by that contractor was not warrantied. With Global Shop Solutions ERP you have a ton of consultants to choose from, the pricing for them is very reasonable, and they are available readily. In our experience, Oracle was...horrible. I think if you have the need to take control of your ERP and be able to make changes on your own, Global Shop Solutions ERP is the only choice.

Thrive Technologies is significantly more cost effective than the others, while it does lack some of the features (bells and whistles). Most of our neighboring hospitals are using these other systems, which does make it is tough to connect to them, as it seems like these larger systems have a juggernaut on the market and the costs of these is only increasing.
