Winshuttle Reviews

We use WinShuttle in a number of different departments in my organization. It is perfect to do data loads and to implement and test new functionality in SAP. It is also very user-friendly for non-IT people to use and saves them a ton of time on a day to day basis.

My organization uses Winshuttle Studio for Salesforce. It is used by a single department. Thanks to Winshuttle we are able to manage Asset Data more efficiently than ever before.

At BBraun Medical, Inc, Winshuttle is used by our finance users; accounts payable, accounts receivables, purchasing, production planning, and other departments. This tool eliminated the tedious, redundant day-to-day inputting tasks of manual data entry and other repetitive tasks in SAP with data that may already be in other digital formats.

Winshuttle solutions offer easy-to-use automation tools for end users and functional analysts. These tools allow the user to connect to Microsoft Office applications, Excel or Access, with SAP data, unlike the tools provided by SAP, such as BDC, ABAP, etc., which are too technical for the users.

We are using Winshuttle across the whole organization. We have optimized many processes in SAP MM, SD, FI, PM. Winshuttle is helping us with all master data upgrades/changes, customer/provider creations, invoice accounting, etc. We reached a 50% time savings in all processes. All Winshuttle users are very happy because we improved processes and made them better and simple.

Winshuttle is being used by a few different departments. I'm only familiar with the use in Real Estate. We use it to update and maintain the master data related to site and occupancy information.

Winshuttle is being used across the whole organization, but more by finance people. It address massive uploads into SAP. Some examples include: instance documents with so many positions/items, journal entries and approval processes through the use of workflows, and processes managed from the shared services center that involve people from different businesses, as well as, some reporting requirements.

Winshuttle is used in different back office areas, and the main reason we acquired Winshuttle, was to manage and update a lot of our database.

Nowadays, Winshuttle is being used in our QA inspection for lot release processes.

Winshuttle has become one of our main applications in the SAP FICO Module. Time to FICO activities were reduced from days to hours thanks to the versatility and ease of use of winshuttle.

Winshuttle is being used throughout our whole organization. It allows us to mass load data with the flexibility of making business processes more efficient. It allows us to migrate a large amount of data from our legacy systems to SAP with minimal effort.

Winshuttle is being used as an optimizer for our activities in the operations department. It is also used for master data, and inbound and outbound deliveries. We are reviewing all activities in the trading department in order to optimize it with helping of Winshutlle. We have more than 350 suppliers with various ERP systems, and Winshutlle is a great tool to communicate with our principal suppliers.

Winshuttle is fully used in our company and in several countries for several processes to optimize several transactions when uploading data in SAP. Users have found it very easy to interact with the tool and it provides the opportunity to take advantage of the investment made by the organization. A key factor for the implementation success of the tool is the Winshuttle support when needed. It was fast and effective.

We used Winshuttle to upload data and download data from SAP. It was used in three different departments - IT, Inbound, Outbound. It resolved the problems of creating thousands of material master records into the system (creation, changes...) and creating mass sales orders. In IT, we used it when any mass data corrections were needed, which were not met by the standard mass changes.

Winshuttle helps our company by enabling development of simple load sheets to be distributed to our internal end-user community. We are able to process changes from simple day to day mass changes on the order of 10 records to large scale implementations for entire plants. By leveraging the transaction and query tools we are able to extract, transform and load data for all manner of SAP areas from customers, materials and vendors down to their transactional data.

Winshuttle was slated to be used to onboard new properties into SAP for a Single Family Housing project. The Residential Group planned on using it. The IT Group also saw potential in using it as an interface tool as well. The best overall business problem that Winshuttle addresses is the upload of WBS elements into SAP as opposed to hand keying them. This was not just a time savings. The massive amount of data could just not be keyed in manually. The amount was just too massive. WinShuttle was also to be used to keep multiple systems in sync.

Using WinShuttle has been a tremendous help with mass changes and creation in SAP. There are only a few users within the organization currently, but it has helped me to streamline processes and reduce human error.

Primarily utilized the Winshuttle software for SAP Finance and Controlling data migration. Tool was incredibly reliable, easy to use and overall fast which was extremely important given the amount of data being processed/used. The product was utilized in my case by the finance department however given the nature of the product it actually was used by the entire org given its reach for manipulating SAP variables and data tables.

I had the opportunity to work with Winshuttle at a client in a data migration project. They were consolidating and converting data from a number of legacy systems into SAP. Having had LSMW experience from prior projects I understood how it worked but was surprised at the ease of creating Winshuttle projects. While it definitely sped up the process of automated data entry, due to the complexity and quirks of various SAP transactions, there were were certain transactions we still had to fall back on LSMW (We had problems with large data sets as well as FI module transactions, but HR went relatively smoothly and MM was not too big a problem either.)

Admittedly I had used it quite a few years ago, and they may have improved, but since we were forced to use LSMW for certain transactions, we decided to fall back on LSMW for most since we found that a lot of errors slipped through silently (that was the worst critique) without any hint of errors. We had worked with Winshuttle during this time and aided them in improving their product. Their staff were helpful and fixed many errors as quickly as we found them. The project ended before all the problems that we reported were fixed however, but I trust by now they should have been resolved.

In the end, it was a great product for creating test data, but I would have to test it again before transferring production data if I had to use it now. Also Spreadsheets are not a reliable medium to maintain and transport data (at the time also being limited to amount of rows)

We use Winshuttle for master data creation and updates primarily but I also use it for transaction data creation for testing during upgrades. Right now we have a Master Data department using the tool as well as the Purchasing Department and I use it all the time here in IT. It's a very quick easy way to make mass updates in a quick timely manner.

Winshuttle was a tool available to Rockwell Collins employees as a part of working with SAP for updating large volumes of data. I am uncertain if others in the company currently use this tool. For me, it allowed me to create 'macros' to import large warranty aircraft equipment updates versus the previous way of data entry.

Winshuttle was used to upload the data for all SAP components like OTC,FI and PTP. I like the tool as its the one of the easiest tools to work with.The performance is excellent. To use the Direct module, a user needs to be more careful with the character formats.

Master data changes to selected partners.

We utilize Winshuttle for both repetitive and ad hoc tasks. We utilize it in our material master process to ensure data integrity. We also use it on projects for data loads such as bringing on a new warehouse. We have super users within the IT area, and out in our production areas. I find the product to be extremely stable, and that enables me to have faith in the runner application which we use also.
