E2 in it's old form was terrific - however the cloud based version is superior\! Functionality - ease of reports, working with other platforms....we can't say enough\! We are now working on customizing some reports and I can't wait til they are part of our daily work\! Great software, great people, great value\! > > **Cons**: IF we can't figure out a custom report and need some form changes...it has taken longer than we like - however....that is the only downside thus far\! > > Excellent\! ----- ### "Exact JobBOSS review" — 4.0/5 > **Chad** | *14 November 2019* | Mining & Metals | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Good first level entry product. Lots of options for expansion. Priced well. works well for most of what we do > > **Cons**: Could be easier to use. Search in fields could search the whole field instead of just in order. Need ability to reschedule batches of jobs or ops. Looking in the future to need better paperless abilities for the floor. This would be drawings, capacity dashboards. Also as things become more connected we are going to need ability to integrate to nesting > > Good Service generally and helpful on custom apps. We have done a bunch of them\! ----- ### "Buyer Beware" — 1.0/5 > **Sherri** | *17 September 2021* | Machinery | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: The customer service was terrible and we do not have any pros to say about this software. > > **Cons**: We hired a representative from their company to fly out for some help with direct training and accounting fixes. We had to prepay for his services. Upon arrival he informed us that he too was unfamiliar with the accounting portion and couldn't help us much. His services totaled over $6000.00 We finally resorted to paying our CPA office several hours to go through the process with us and balance the books. In short, $37,000.00 later, not only we would NEVER recommend this product to any sized businesses, but if you're thinking of viewing this product, don't waste your time. They will show you a demo of software that's already setup and operating smoothly, which is NOT what will happen when you implement. As of January 2021 we have since, happily moved on to new software, but recently been forced to pay for the last six months of (non) tech support or risk being sent to Collections from Shop Tech. Classy Shop Tech....very classy. > > To anyone that is thinking about purchasing E2, now known as Shop Tech....BUYER BEWARE Our company made the decision to purchase E2 in 2018 at a machine show. The sales associates that were demonstrating the software did an amazing job showing off it's operational talents and expertise. The company paid for two of us top management specialists to travel to a training sight where we worked out of a step by step workbook, which began the wasting of monies....But then 1/1/2019 the nightmare began. The program was not the same as the one purchased by the President of the company. They supplied a brand new version of E2 and told us that it had been a replacement for the one we purchased and the prior was no longer available.. For two years to follow we were nothing but guinea pigs. Our company suffered computer glitches, accounting problems, data loss and production interruption, due to the unready malfunctioning computer software supplied. Numerous hours spent with E2 support, could still not rectify the continuing accounting issues and glitches within the software. Weekly we received updates from E2 tech support to fix problems in their new system. These updates regularly had thousands of changes. Goodbye Shop Tech... and good riddance\! ----- ### "Good software" — 4.0/5 > **Erica** | *3 September 2019* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the fact the you can route, have job costing, accounting, etc all in one area. For this type of application, this is the best software to choose from. Shoptech continues to make improvements and listens to the customers on where to improve. > > **Cons**: The quality module needs improved as well as the scheduling. The repository in unusable. > > Overall this is the best application for what we need. The customer service is top notch. The custom development team is good. ----- ### "Great Option for Small Manufacturing Business" — 5.0/5 > **Mollie** | *11 September 2019* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: E2 Shop is very user friendly\! It is easy to navigate and easy to understand. E2 Shop has the best customer service we have experienced and has a wonderful online discussion board and help documents to help along the way. > > **Cons**: We have experienced a good amount of "glitches" and software "hang-ups" that require a system repair which we were advised to do every 2 weeks. (All have proven to be software related). ----- Page: 1 / 36\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/110711/jobboss?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/110711/jobboss) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
