## Reviews

### "Resource Manager DB - The Missing Link" — 5.0/5

> **Mark** | *26 May 2020* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: There is a lot to like about RMDB. The biggest Pros that we've experienced with it are:&#10;&#10;\* Full Data Warehouse - we were able to tie data from as many as (4) different software platforms into a single repository, The time savings alone in retyping of data into spreadsheets, reviewing various printed reports and manually creating production schedules saved us countless hours.&#10;&#10;\* User Interface - The interface is so customizable that it was easy for anyone having experience with spreadsheet software, such as MS Excel, to pick it up and be productive within minutes.&#10;&#10;\* Process Automation - Through the use of queries, rich database features and timely reporting, it gives you the ability to create processes that may typically take many steps (or multiple systems) and bring them into a mouse-click in the process menu.&#10;&#10;\* Customization - We were able to customize many of the reports to look exactly like what the user base was already receiving. This made the transition within the production environment very easy. For example, our complex scheduling report used to take as many as (16) hours a week\! After RMD was implemented it took less than (3)\!&#10;&#10;\* People - The guidance we receive from RMDB has been invaluable. They worked with us throughout the automation and testing of our critical processes to ensure that we had a successful implementation. They showed a vested interest in our successful use of their product.
> 
> **Cons**: Because RMDB was such a good fit for our needs, it's difficult to raise any major cons about RMDB. I think the biggest issue at the time we purchased it was the lack of more detailed documentation. However, that has dramatically changed over these last 10 years. What the documentation lacked at that time the RMDB support staff more than made up for with their advice and expertise.
> 
> Banker Steel Company is a Steel Fabrication \&amp; Erection company in VA. As their IT Director, it was important for me to find the proper system to automate the Production Scheduling process. RMDB provided an integration gateway to bring all the critical data together from (4) applications into one common repository. This provided a more productive and accurate method for forecasting, scheduling and analysis.&#10;&#10;It was indeed the "Missing Link" piece that we needed in order to accomplish the things we did in a more accurate and secure way.

### "User friendly with lots of capability." — 5.0/5

> **Todd** | *28 May 2020* | Machinery | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We had purchased an ERP package from one of the "big players" and found it much more labor intensive to implement, much more expensive to maintain and more rigid in its application. We like RMDB's ability to easily import from excel in a modular way. We build complex products and like RMDB's ability to handle multiple sub-assemblies, purchased parts, and a skilled labor force (with specialties) well.
> 
> **Cons**: Like all software, it takes effort to implement and the implementation process sheds light on internal deficiencies that require resolution prior to implementation.  I wish there were canned excel templates pre-mapped to RMDB to help anticipate these, although since support is so strong, RMDB has essentially done these in implementation sessions for our business.
> 
> I have been a slow implementer based on my lack of time. Despite this, the program is straight-forward and it its easy to jump back in. It is also a usable tool even without have all features in active use.

### "Evaluation" — 3.0/5

> **Ronald** | *29 March 2011*
> 
> **Pros**: Integration with out existing applications was simple. The database naming scheme and field descriptions makes it simple to build tools to extend usability.
> 
> **Cons**: Printing features are limited. Printing features need to be added to areas such as View Schedule, Workcenter view, project details.
> 
> Unknown at this time.

### "Excellent Value\!" — 4.0/5

> **Scott** | *28 February 2017* | Mining & Metals | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We use the Resource Manager for our all of our Production Planning, reports, and for exporting data directly into our dashboard tools. It's relatively simple and people can grasp the concepts without a Phd. We can track our job progress instantly and create spreadsheets and graphs to analyze, improve and control our work centers and throughput.
> 
> **Cons**: It would be nice if the program (as we use it) could integrate with our current MRP software.
> 
> We've been using Resource Manager as our sole Scheduling and Planning software for about 6 years and have been very pleased with the ease of use, customer support and functionality.  The program is absolutely customizable for any application, and since we've nearly doubled our Production output over this time period the tool has been flexible and very user friendly throughout.

### "Flexible MRP with great ongoing support" — 5.0/5

> **Joel** | *8 March 2017* | Furniture | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Flexibility for highly variant scheduling with many workcenters. Easy reporting and working with Excel. Great support during and after implementation. ROI – reduced a 40 hr./wk. scheduling effort by professional Production Scheduler to 1. basic schedule automatically generated by Office Clerk’s input into legacy order entry system (made possible by RMDB’s easy adaptability to legacy systems) and 2. handful of hours by Production Scheduler for advanced tweaks, changes, checking.
> 
> **Cons**: Our not having an ERP system to feed the production scheduling system, that as flexible as RMDB is, it still requires the subset of ERP implementations that is relevant to the production scheduling.  This part was new for us but User Solutions helped us work through it - consistent part numbering schemes, developing a method to accurately estimate the time required for each new custom job, and so forth.  We are much more efficient because of it and glad to do it but wish there was a magic wand for that part.
> 
> A unique scheduling system with the flexibility we need for custom jobs that have many variables, at the right price point. User Solutions has great ongoing support needed for our continuous improvement objectives after initial implementation.
