    ProShop ERP
    I can't talk highly enough about ProShop ERP. Their team is never satisfied with how it performs and the features it has in place. ProShop has made our company more efficient in every aspect of how we run a business. We shopped around and we couldn't find a system that does everything that ProShop does. It is the most complete robust system on the market in my opinion.

    Unit4
    • Since the software is built with your needs in mind, it can be tailored to your specific needs.
    • System security is also created with your specific needs in mind and can be extremely detailed for various roles within the organization.
    • The various modules integrate well, if thought through system processes when building.

    Cons
    ProShop ERP
    • Can be slightly overwhelming at first.
    • Unless you have a good understanding of how to write script and code the customization pages can be confusing.
    • Some of the system notifications can be a little confusing, such as the new rev flag that pops up when the rev for the part changes. We've had some issues with this causing problems to the parts later down the line when trying to transfer duplicate parts to a remake job.

    • Their layout and limited web capabilities are a turn-off
    • They lack basic functionality in their web [version]
    • The implementation phase is bumpy since their guides and process documents are not step by step and are usually confusing

    • Our business processes were in flux when the initial build of our system was taking place - this made lives very difficult. Make sure processes are set!
    • Time - beyond what could have been imagined - this is a huge project, that needs proper resources assigned to it within a company when planning to install.
