I find Monday helpful for lead management. It's great because details like phone, email, and addresses are specific columns from which we can grab data and pull it into other areas. It's great to see who is assigned what and to know what the next steps are for your leads. We use a different scheduling tool with our team, as that calendar view isn't as robust.
SAP PLM is well suited for any industry that needs to track the creation of a product from the raw material stage all the way to the shipped product. I do not think it would be well suited for very small companies which do not have any materials, products, and inventory to track.
I give a ten for monday dev's usability because it was a really smooth transition coming from Jira to monday dev. All team members also felt that way. When managing projects, the quality and various options I am able to customize views and columns for each task is really a dealbreaker. Approved.
We selected it because of our previous positive experience with monday dev. In addition, it gave us more options to tie in other parts of our business so it’s under one umbrella and then further automate things. The over tracking and monitoring ability is far better than others out there and allows you to keep a closer eye on how things are operating.
SAP PLM encompasses SAP BW and SAP PRD. We tend to focus more on the SAP PRD portion as it directly involves more closely to production. We selected SAP PLM because it gives us a great visibility in the life cycle of materials, products and overall costs. SAP PLM compliments the other packages very well
Accurately able to order raw materials which are necessary for the current production run, thus reducing overhead.
The negative impact would be the initial cost of the software and how long it would take to ROI that cost.
It has allowed us to control batches of product creation much more closer and have the ability to cut some erroneous costs which were found in large batches.
