Accevo MES Reviews

Pros

Having everything brought together in one live model really helps Lative fix the data fragmentation issue. Scenario modeling is another highlight because it turns planning into something actionable. I also really value the people on their team, they're consistently helpful and willing to talk through ideas. The initial setup did take some careful preparation but it went well overall.

Cons

Starting with some of the more advanced modeling and scenario setup features can feel a bit complex at first especially with the learning curve involved. It would be even better to have more guided support for advanced models, such as a step-by-step wizard.

Pros

ANT was able to customize the MES interface and its features extensively which let us get much more value out of the system and use it in a way that really fit our needs.

Cons

A more thorough review of all features should have happened before implementation started. Once we realized the system could do more with additional tailoring, the rollout ended up taking longer than planned. The parts that were less simple were then adjusted during implementation.

Pros

The MES connects well with our existing data systems and pulls in information from PLC devices order statuses and other operational sources without issue.

Cons

Its functionality is there and the system is scalable enough to adapt to our needs.

Pros

Reporting has been dependable and the visibility into aggregated results is genuinely useful. It helps a lot with shift-by-shift and weekly prioritization by loss category and the system is fully flexible when it comes to matching a user's own KPI standards. There's also a solid understanding of Lean Manufacturing KPIs built into the platform.

Cons

One gap is the lack of SKU-based reporting and related insights. On top of that, the upkeep of features that aren't used often can be inconsistent.. for example, Parameter Masterdata sets are not aligned across all machines.

Pros

Right from the start, the product feels very simple to work with and managing users is simple. The reports can be adjusted to fit different needs which is really useful. The interface is very clear as well so operators can immediately see where problems are coming from.

Cons

It isn't really built for OTP modules or more complex setups. On cigarette machines, it performs very well because there is only one maker and one packer but once several machines are connected in a row and the logic has to determine where a stop originated, the system often fails to identify the correct root cause. Aside from that, it would be better if the system were more flexible and tailored to each piece of equipment.

Pros

Having real-time visibility into production and machine conditions is one of the most valuable parts of this software. It helps users respond quickly and make accurate decisions when issues come up or adjustments are needed.

Cons

actually it would be even better if the platform were more robust when it comes to integrating with other applications.

Pros

It gives access to a huge amount of data along with charts and analytical tools which makes it very useful for tracking and evaluating information.

Cons

The usability is good with a simple interface and it can also be configured to fit a specific application.

Pros

From the start, the system has met all of our functional requirements. The interface is user-friendly, the navigation feels simple and day-to-day operation is simple. It runs quickly and we haven't had any issues with errors during use. The integration with our ERP system was simple to complete and has been working flawlessly ever since.

Cons

I don't have any complaints. The software has been working flawlessly.

Pros

The user interface feels polished and the dashboard design is well done and pleasant to work with.

Cons

Customer support could be better and there's not much flexibility when it comes to making changes or adding new features.

Pros

The software has a clear layout and is simple to use. It's also simple to make and apply small changes when needed.

Cons

At times the software returns missing or incorrect data, such as when the production counter shows nothing. In those cases, support is always needed and during that period the inaccurate data ends up distorting our statistics.

Pros

It's easy to use. I can't wait for its complete integration so that we can utilize all of its features because right now we're limited to just the fundamental features.  

Cons

Software implementation is running longer that I'd expected.
