JobBOSS is an essential software solution at our company utilized across multiple departments including sales, accounting, shipping and purchasing. It is vital for our sales records, customer records, inventory, A/P & A/R functions. The ease of use and customization is also key to our success when implementing JobBOSS across our organization.
  • Customer record organization
  • Inventory management
  • A/R & A/P tracking
  • Sales history and reporting
  • Reporting in general
  • Customization can prove to be somewhat of a challenge to implement, but support always jumps in to assist if needed
  • Can be somewhat slow/glitchy at times
  • Some aspects are not that intuitive and could be more user-friendly
Great for organizations that need a solution for sales, accounting, purchasing & customer service. You do not need to be a large scale operation to implement and use the software. For larger organizations however, it may make more sense to use something more specific to their operations, as JobBOSS can seem a little generic.

  • Not Much
  • Tech Support
  • Overall Linking Modules
I believe If you need customer support this is not the company for you. I think my Senior could code and write better software. If you want to simply enter and order and ship an order that's what you get. Trying to tie purchase orders and job cost and customer cost together good luck in my opinion. I believe If you need this to grow your business then buyer beware. I have been on the phone with them so many times over the last few weeks. In my experience, it is always the same story I'm sorry it can't do that. I believe I have 5 open tickets with tech support still waiting to close one !!!

  • To much Time on phone with Tech Support
We were handcuffed and the notes from E2 there old platform were not compatible with the other two platforms we had selected. In my experience, they were not the most helpful in trying to assist.

We use JobBOSS across our entire system. After outgrowing QuickBooks Enterprise we chose JobBOSS for its Manufacturing and Job Shop focus. It's shop floor control/scheduling module is used for every process in our building and provides real time evaluation of our flow. We needed a complete solution that addressed order processing, shop control, inventory, and accounting. JobBOSS provides a complete package that allows every member of the team to do their job in a single application with the ability to see how it affects every other department.
  • It's scheduling module works well for "Job Shop" style manufacturing and scales to larger production runs.
  • The ability to create routings and assemblies, as well as templates, allowed us to consolidate several excel spreadsheets per job into a single place. Getting everything into one spot really saves time and helps minimize mistakes that can occur from working in multiple files.
  • The remote workstations on the floor are helping us achieve our goal of paper reduction, and with real time changes we don't need to go out and collect outdated paperwork from the floor.
  • The accounting system is robust and works well.
  • The reporting is through Crystal Reports which is cumbersome to work with and requires someone who knows what they are doing. If you're moving from something like Quickbooks with built in report editing, you're going to be frustrated with creating custom reports.
  • If you run mutliple jobs on a single machine or use multi-pallet machines scheduling can get frustrating, and you will have to come up with your own solutions to schedule those machines. (This is not unique to JobBOSS scheduling. We tested several ERP systems in this range and most were lacking in this area).
  • Even with the 12.0 update, the interface is still rather dated for the onsite version. The online version looks much better.
Job Shops that have outgrown Quickbooks/Peachtree are a good fit and small to medium run shops are a good fit for JobBOSS. If you're still in the grey area between Quickbooks and a fully fledged ERP system, you can connect it with Quickbooks for your accounting which is a good medium for companies who would like to slowly roll, kind of upgrade out.

  • We were using several pieces or software that have all been replaced by just JobBOSS. Inventory, routings, inspections, floor tracking, accounting are now all in a single place.
  • It helped us to reorganize our document server and consolidate files. Its ability to link files has created an environment where nearly every piece of information on an order can be found in a centralized single location.
  • The quoting module has improved our decision making and ability to see where we were right or wrong on costing.
JobBOSS is the centralized solution that has helped us consolidate nearly every process within our company. It's ability to create routings and calculate material by building a job saves us hours every day compared to Quickbooks. Its inventory management is faster and tracks more information than Wasp and its ability to understand raw stock and material shapes makes life so much simpler in a manufacturing environment.

Across the entire organization. We are currently trying to integrate bar codes and scanners into our inventory management system. We use it for all of our timekeeping and job management aspects. We also track our near misses and incidents for safety.
  • Timekeeping. Clocking in and out.
  • Inventory control.
  • Travelers or job sheets that keep track of operations.
  • Better label printing support.
  • Timekeeping alerts to management when there are huge discrepancies.
Time management and inventory control are great. Awesome investment for small business owners for everything from services like plating, or anodizing, to keeping track of our suppliers. Wish it integrated a decent label program with it also.
