Overall Satisfaction with M1

I use M1 daily to quote products to customers, create sales orders, and invoice customers when the sale is completed. We use it for purchase orders to buy from our suppliers. I review the aging report to collect money owed from customers. It helps streamline our business everyday.
  • Quoting products for us to sell.
  • Tracking our production hours and jobs costs.
  • Collects and stores data to refer back to repeat sales.
  • Gives us an accurate aging report to determine who is behind on invoice payments
  • It’s difficult to undo an error made. Once an invoice is posted you can’t undo it.
  • We receive errors or glitches in sales orders or invoices.
  • When researching “how to” do something on the tech support page it isn’t as straightforward as I’d like for it to be.
  • Increased production
  • Time savings
  • Improved profits
  • Improved company database
There are many things that are user friendly, but some areas that are not. If mistakes are made by the user it’s often difficult to correct.
M1 has helped us with the entire sales process from starting a manufacturing job till completion and shipment of the product.
