Visual EstiTrack

Just another User

Pros

One of the reasons we chose Henning Software in 2002 was its adaptability and ability to customize the software according to our companys needs. This aspect still holds true today. Attending the user conferences every year exposes me to how other users utilize the system, giving me inspiration for potential improvements within our own company.

Cons

The aspect I find least likeable about the software is its inability to resize screens within ET. It would be great to have a more cloud-compatible version, which I believe the upcoming update will address.

Fantastic product

Pros

The software developers consistently enhance and upgrade the software to meet the requirements of its users. Customer support is attentive and prompt. The manufacturing module and accounting module synergize effectively.

Cons

I have no complaints. As the program has expanded, so has its selection of options and reports. It would be helpful if users could customize or minimize menus according to their preferences, as it would simplify things and streamline the process.

The Best Option For Our Company!

Pros

The software is always evolving and updating. Furthermore, any mistakes can usually be rectified.

Cons

I feel overwhelmed by the numerous optional variations available, unsure if I'm utilizing the most suitable one for our needs.

Awesome Software

Pros

This software is user-friendly, with many features being self-explanatory. In case assistance is needed, a simple call to customer service schedules a phone conference. On the rare occasion that an immediate resolution is not possible, they hold morning meetings to discuss solutions, and you typically receive an answer within a day or two of the conference. Instances where immediate solutions are not available are rare.

Cons

I haven't come across anything I dislike about the software. If theres a specific feature missing, you can usually pay a fee for Henning to develop it. However, there was one capability I requested that wasn't currently available but was assured it would be considered in the near future. I completely understand the response in this case because the desired capability requires collaboration with a vending software that Henning isn't associated with. The fact that they are willing to explore it in the future demonstrates their commitment to customer satisfaction.

Great software for manufacturing companies

Pros

Efficient scheduling for production, accurate monitoring of inventory levels, and precise tracking of sales.

Cons

There is a wide range of reports offering valuable information,but its challenging to determine which one is the most suitable.

Super-Program

Pros

Highly adaptable and capable of fulfilling any desired functionality!

Cons

The software is highly flexible, which is both a positive aspect and a slight learning curve. Fortunately, the support team is excellent, and the people are wonderful!

Great experience with a customer-oriented company

Pros

I am currently in the implementation phase and working with them on some upgrades. The transparency of the reporting and the logical structure of the system are particularly impressive. It is easy to trace not only our processes but also the calculations behind them. Nothing is so concealed that it cannot be found, and if any problems arise, the support team readily assists in resolving them. EstiTrack also offers lot control and item sequencing within manufacturing, which was challenging to find in a more affordable system. Additionally, it allows for multiple approaches to accomplishing tasks, which is a fantastic feature for our manufacturing business. It enables us to tailor our processes to suit our needs. This has already proven to be immensely useful in quoting and pricing. We selected EstiTrack because it provided the most immediate benefits and some future potential. Other complex systems would have given us only 40% value right away, with hopes of utilizing the great features eventually. With EstiTrack, we knew we could immediately take advantage of 70%, streamline our current processes, reach our goals, and have room for growth.

Cons

Like any system we evaluated several before selecting EstiTrack (having used Vista/Epicor for 20 years), and while it may not meet everyone's needs entirely, it excels in most areas. We chose EstiTrack with the expectation that we would request some personalized upgrades, and they are actively collaborating with us to develop and implement those upgrades, ensuring they are beneficial, well planned, and worth the investment. As we haven't fully implemented the system yet, we haven't encountered many significant drawbacks.

As good as it gets

Pros

The best aspect of this product is its simplicity. Although I felt overwhelmed initially, after just a few hours of training and exploring the test database set up by the Henning team, I was using the system proficiently. It assists me with my daily workload and consolidates all the necessary machine shop operations into a straightforward software solution.

Cons

So far I haven't encountered any issues but it would be beneficial to have some form of backup solution for my files. It would allow me to clear the saved information from VET and store it on a hard drive, reducing clutter in my orders and quotes.

Software update

Pros

This product is more user-friendly than it initially appeared to me. I also appreciate the fact that both the vendor and the software have been established for years, allowing them to keep pace with changing business practices.

Cons

Initially this product seemed overwhelming due to its extensive functionality. Currently, I am using the quoting, sales orders and shipping functions, while customizing them to fit my business requirements.

Great product!

Pros

The software offers tremendous flexibility and can handle any task. The team at Hennings is always available to address any questions, and their responsiveness is exceptional!

Cons

The software tends to be a bit slow. I wish it was faster.
