Overall Satisfaction with Propel

Propel is used to manage the product lifecycles in our organization. We set categories for each item so that we can properly autonumber it and then track where it is used in various products across our product offerings. We can also easily identify specific items that can be used as alternates or substitutes so that if we run into any supply chain issues, we can locate additional substitute components to use if we have them available. We can also use Propel for our training needs to ensure that our employees are properly trained on all of the products we offer, any changes that are made to the makeup of those products, annual safety training, etc.

Would you buy Propel again?

If you're already using another solution like Arena, Agile, or another smaller-named tool, Propel is just as capable. The big benefit is that Propel sits inside of Salesforce, which is a huge benefit in that users only need to go to one place for multiple different activities. If you're already using Salesforce this is a great opportunity to bring your PLM or QMS workflows into the fold. If you haven't used Salseforce before Propel will get everything configured for you and train you on how to use the system.
