JobBOSS² runs on the cloud, and this makes it easy for our staff to use. We use JobBOSS² as our ERP system. This allows us to plan and control the flow of the product being manufactured. Scheduling is used to assist with the tight schedules and outside processors we work with within our industry.
  • Scheduling of jobs based on many different options
  • Easy Maintenance, no upgrades
  • Quoting is done well
  • Orders are processed in a timely manner
  • Inventory management
  • Provide Support with more than an email contact or call back abilities, phone extensions to get direct to the support person assisting.
  • Require support to follow up even when a call has run over on time - let the closed call be decided by the customer.
  • Data Collection could use an easier way for the operator to access the documents, for example, setup or inspection paperwork
Production manufacturing and machining would be strong points. JobBOSS² has some options to grow into other ECI products or 3rd party vendors. These offer options for inspection, quoting, accounting, and scaling the business to many locations. A good example for a small business owner could use Intuit Quickbooks and move into JobBOSS² accounting as the business grows.

  • Scheduling has improved how we plan our resources.
  • Lowered IT costs and no need for servers.
  • Labor metrics provides tracking and time management of our staff.
Integrating as much as possible into one product helps with efficiencies. This makes it easier for our staff and reporting metrics.
We use Quickbooks for the accounting system. The syncing of the two systems has run reliable without any issues.
JobBOSS² is much less complicated than Epicor system since it requires lots of server hardware that is costly and specialized.

About every employee in the organization uses JobBOSS2. We use it not only for an ERP system but also for a time clock. The times then easily integrate with the payroll system. Data collection is used to monitor the flow of manufacturing progress. Quoting is used to start the quote and plan the manufacturing steps. Inventory is used to track our product and locate it.
1
The company has one person, and they mostly contact support when a question arises. They contact JobBOSS2 and create a ticket by website or phone. Once the ticket is logged in a support staff from JobBOSS2 contacts the correct people who need the questions answered. JobBOSS2 is easy to support since it is web cloud based.
  • Quoting
  • Data Collection
  • Scheduling
  • Tool prep planning
  • Plan early for shipments
  • Shop Dashboards
  • Automated Reports
  • Shop Floor Inspections
The staff enjoy the use of JobBOSS2. We don't have many complaints or issues with the software that are not solved. Support for the product has been improving and that is important for long term success. The cloud application is continually being developed and updated. New abilities are being added to assist with the customers that have strict requirements things like governance items.

We currently operating all manufacturing operations out of JobBOSS². We use JobBOSS² for order entry and control, quality control, load leveling, and employee management. Before we implemented it, we operated all off verbal communication and Excel spreadsheets. JobBOSS² has increased efficiencies and has made communication more clear. With the aid of JobBOSS² we are also able to give more accurate data back to our customers, Ex. Leadtime, on time percentages, etc.
  • Order Managment
  • Employee time Tracking
  • PO Generation
  • Invoice/Receiving
  • Accounting functions
  • Ordering on the time and attendance page
  • Quoting process
JobBOSS² has been a tremendous improvement from our Excel spreadsheets. It has been helpful with tracking material to specific jobs- The attachment tab is helpful. The interface between JobBOSS² and QB could be more user-friendly. Tracking employees is helpful. JobBoss is less appropriate for quoting. There are more variables to take into consideration than what is offered.

  • Improved visibility
I now have a clear understanding and am able to track what is going on in the shop thanks to JobBOSS². The shops efficiencies have also increased due to clearer communication from order entry to shop floor flow processes. We are able to collect real data to identify any bottle necks.
We have not currently integrated JobBoss with any other tools.
JobBoss was chosen over the competitors for the ease of use, the support that is available, and the price point. The flow of JobBoss's sofftware is easily followed. The support that is available when needed- we took full advantage of the one-on-one consulting time that was available. The Software is very economical for the value that is provides.

  • PO Generation
  • Job Cost Analysis
  • Storing Inventory
No
  • Scalability
  • Ease of Use
The most important factor we valued when deciding on Jobboss was that the software was robust enough that it took care of our immediate software needs and was robust enough to allow us to grow into it. Implementing new software is challenging, so it was important to us that we found a partner that allowed us to continue to grow.
There is nothing we would change about or evaluation or selection process. We feel we made a very calculated selection and it has served all of our needs thus far.
Implantation went smoothly for the most part.
  • Implemented in-house
Yes
Phases were provided by the Jobboss implentation team.
Change management was minimal
  • Accurate Data
We have not needed to contact JobBoss for support
We did not. We have not needed the support- we have been able to resolved any issues thus far

I implemented JobBOSS² on Jan 1, 2023, to replace proprietary software previously being used/ modified as needed. In addition to this software, Linmark utilized Excel spreadsheets and Quickbooks to manage jobs, accounting functions, and reporting. After the implementation, we used JobBOSS² and synced AR & AP to Quickbooks weekly. JobBOSS² has been a welcome change at Linmark, as we were given a magnitude of visibility that we would have never had otherwise. JobBOSS² brought into one cloud-based software all the functions we previously performed across multiple platforms.
  • Multitudes of Standard Reports
  • Ability to Almost Completely Customize Reports & Forms
  • Inclusive Software from Quoting through Manufacturing to Invoicing
  • Return and Rework Tracking
  • Ability to "click-through" from module to module is somewhat quirky and not always do-able
  • Implementation process and initial learning is very independent, more assistance and direction from ECI would be appreciated.
  • Ability to set Product Code at Order level instead of Estimate level would be quite helpful
  • Ability to add WorkCode at Line Item Specification screen would be very useful
  • Ability to enter material quantities at decimal amounts instead of whole numbers. This is a huge disadvantage of JobBOSS²
While JobBOSS² has some quirks and learning curves to get around initially, it has been a great resource for our company. The visibility of jobs on our manufacturing floor and their statuses has been the most helpful. For our office staff, having all functions from job entry to purchasing to invoicing in one software has been hugely time effective compared to our previous process of double and sometimes triple entering information across multiple software platforms. For our business, a precision job shop where every job is different, and we do not have many production-run type jobs, JobBoss2 is very well suited. It allows us to enter all details and routing requirements for each job/ part. The main scenario in our shop that we have JobBOSS² not well suited is raw material inventory handling due to the requirement of entering material in full number quantities only and no ability to enter any decimal quantities. This means that if you have 4-1/4" of a type of metal on your shelf, you would enter 4" and disregard the 1/4" - this becomes an issue when manufacturing a part that is 4", but you would need to have 4-1/4" or even just 4-1/8" of material for the CNC machine to chuck on-to (hold on-to). Now we see we only have 4" and believe we'll need to order material when we would not need to.

  • Improved visability
  • Reduction of office staffing needs
Linmark has benefited in reducing office staff numbers, saving us thousands per year. JobBOSS² has streamlined processes and reduced touches for each job/ customer purchase order.
We have integrated JobBOSS² with Quickbooks; this has been a wonderful setup and works very well. This allows our accounting functions to still be performed and shared with our accountants in a format they are comfortable and familiar with.
We evaluated a few other ERP systems and chose JobBOSS² based on how similarly it functioned to our previous software but also wrapped all functions into one software instead of 3+. We were not at a place to go paperless, which made the decision not to utilize ProShop easy.

Overall, JobBoss works great for our company. There are a few quirky features that we would be interested in finding a software that conquers those quirks, we would be willing to investigate if a software were presented.
Yes
FileMaker database- system did not have the functionality needed.
  • Ease of Use
We were looking for an easy to use system that compared similarly to our previous software but had the functionality of an ERP system.
I would do more hands-on use of the software prior to committing to its use.
I assumed there would be more assistance from JobBoss for implementation of the software. I felt it was very independent on my part and I felt unsure a lot of the time.
  • Implemented in-house
No
Change management was a small part of the implementation and was well-handled
Create an implementation and training team so each team member can focus on a different portion of the project and then be an "expert" on their individual parts.
  • Independently learning the software without assistance from JobBoss support
  • Keeping motivation high with our employees to use a new system
  • Online Training
  • In-Person Training
  • No Training
Our trainer was very knowledgeable and helpful.
The videos and live seminars were helpful but not all were as in-depth as needed.
In general yes it was easy.
The system works great for our needs, however we are a job shop, which the software was designed for.
No
Some - we have done small customizations to the interface
we have only done minimal customization
No - we have not done any custom code
ability to add/ modify each navigator screen
I wish support would be more easily accessible. I find myself needing help with one-off questions occasionally and would like to be able to call in and ask without having to schedule 2 hours of training
I did not even know this was an option.
No
On-site training prior to implementation was a phenomenal experience, our trainer was great and very knowledgeable.
Overall the system works well for us however there are quirks, such as inventory & purchasing quantities not able to be entered in decimals.

We use JobBOSS2 in all areas of our business, from accounting to inventory management to shop floor control. We were looking for a better analysis of shop production and a system to help us streamline jobs and resources.
  • Great reports.
  • Training and tech support.
  • Job process is laid out in a logical, accountable way.
  • Report designer could be more user-friendly.
  • Better explanation of month-end journal entries that are needed for financial reports.
I think JobBOSS2 is well suited for any machine shop or manufacturing business.

  • We were able to better capture the true costs of manufacturing that we couldn't do with Quickbooks.
It's great that it's all in one system and we can access almost everything in a mobile app.
No integrations.

  • Shop floor control
  • Inventory management
  • Order management
  • Attaching our engineering drawings to work orders.
It functions very well for us.
Yes
We used Quickbooks prior to JobBOSS2, and we did not get near good enough analysis of our processes to ensure we were being profitable.
  • Ease of Use
We didn't want to get into anything too complicated. However, JobBOSS2 can get into some fairly detailed analysis depending on the report that is designed.
The initial training leaves a little to be desired because it's done by people who know the generalities of the system. However, once you get into one-on-one trainings and tech support calls, they do a tremendous job in these aspects. They go above and beyond to make sure you get what you need.
No, not sure what this is.
I had a tech support person stay 2 hours past his time to end his day to help me with several accounting issues.
Most things are pretty clear, but some applications are hidden in other buttons.
  • invoicing
  • payments
  • cash receipts
  • Changing parts from one job to another.
Yes
Works great!
