Great eQMS solution for a medical device company!
Great eQMS solution for a medical device company!
Pros
Propel lets us digitize our Change Control and training processes which used to be the most tedious aspects of our Quality Management System when we relied on paper. The functions and features were generally simple.
Cons
Generating reports and obtaining basic metrics was more difficult than I had expected.

Propel is Great!
Propel is Great!
Pros
Propel is an excellent product. I really like how simple it is to use, the BOM layout, the ECO process and its flexibility. The Customer Success team is AMAZING! They consistently go the extra mile to assist us whenever we need it.
Cons
BOM export process could use some improvement and having Revisions on BOMs is essential yet Propel does not offer that feature.

Pros
I like the control options and versioning tools available for various business needs.
Cons
Many users struggle with the sign off process. It leads to frustration, lockouts, delayed training and a lack of compliance as users eventually give up and stop trying.

Pros
I love how adaptable the system is and the Propel support team is very responsive.
Cons
Searching can be challenging. Our users often struggle to find what they need using the global search. For instance searching by file name keywords does not consistently bring up the correct documents.

Propel is a must have for Product Development teams!
Propel is a must have for Product Development teams!
Pros
In my 10+ years of Product Development, this is the most adaptable PLM platform I have ever used and the level of support is unmatched, thanks to Propels highly responsive team. They worked with us to design and tailor our Propel setup according to our needs which covers everything from finished goods and BOM management to engineering change orders, revision control, quality standards, supplier access, email notifications and more.
Cons
We had to get an additional subscription/license with Salesforce due to the significant cloud storage needs of our organization.

Pros
Since we switched to Propel our users have never been more satisfied. Every day they are coming up with ways to add new apps or update the existing ones. Instead of complaining about outdated systems, they are excited to shape our custom solution.
Cons
Getting used to what is specific to Propel versus what is native to Salesforce takes some time.
