FactoryFour Reviews

Flexibility - With over 18 years of experience evaluating/recommending/implementing software systems, FactoryFour is the most flexible and configurable Work-In-Process (WIP) platform I have seen. It can be precisely tailored to meet the needs of various users within your organization and provides a granular level of detail about the activities taking place within an operation. If you're in the market for a WIP system, do the right thing and make sure you evaluate FactoryFour. You will NOT be disappointed. We've facilitated evaluation cycles with several customers looking to incorporate a WIP system with the barcoding and RFID technologies that we specialize in and they have all been impressed with the capabilities that FactoryFour offers

Nothing - FactoryFour meets or exceeds the needs of any company/organization looking to implement a Work-In-Process system.

Be sure to take the time to sit through a personalized demo for your team so that you can see the FactoryFour platform in action and understand how it will fit your operation.

Several of our customers have selected FactoryFour to help them gain control of their unique manufacturing processes. FactoryFour has helped with tracking consumption of raw materials, quality controls/inspections, tracking materials and activity across very complex and varied assembly/manufacturing/shop floors, seamlessly integrated with existing ERP systems, and much more.

We use FactoryFour to intake and place work order into production and then manage the production process. It's very easy to customize the forms to intake work orders, and from there you can actually see a workflow that tells you the steps to production. If there is a process problem it will automatically tell the right people to address it.

The solution is very well rounded and there isn't anything in particular that I don't like. You need to make sure to dedicate resources from your team to make sure implementation goes smoothly, as you should for all process software.

We are using FactoryFour to process work orders and manage the production process. Overall, we've seen increased efficiency in production, and a more enhanced customer experience. Customers are submitting orders with less errors, and have more flexibility in the options they have. We receive the orders right into production and can track all of our processes in real-time.

FactoryFour fills a major gap that all manufacturing businesses have: understanding the production floor in real-time. They also give you the one insight that no manufacturer truly knows: the labor cost associated with making a product. With FactoryFour set up on your production floor, you can automatically gather data on all your processes. From this data you can build your own insights to understand labor cost, downtime, technician productivity, etc.

FactoryFour is a very focused product, making it a best-in-class for production execution and visibility. You will need other systems to manage your inventory, accounting, etc. however FactoryFour has an integration infrastructure that can integrate seamlessly into these other systems.

If you’re a company with more than 15 operators on the floor, you should seriously be considering a system to start tracking production. FactoryFour is the most advanced and easy to use in my opinion. Tracking production will improve your business, increase your profit, and enhance your customer’s experience.

For me personally, it’s crucial to understand the cost of making a single product unit. FactoryFour gave me that insight and more. I’ve been able to optimize my production processes and make better business decisions that are backed by data. Every manufacturer needs good data to make the best decisions.

FactoryFour provides a superior platform for providing organizations with a work in process (WIP) software application.

Nothing - FactoryFour is a great software package available at an affordable price.

FactoryFour has given my organization complete visibility into our day-to-day operations.

The two factors that set FactoryFour apart and create the most impactful value for my customers are its ability to handle custom workflows and its user-friendly, modern interface. I have yet to see a WIP software that balances both of these components and also presents the best options for reporting and actionable data aggregation. Whether traditional barcoding or RFID, FactoryFour is the most flexible solution for solving manufacturing issues.

Thus far, FactoryFour has been a capable and winning partner for my requirements and my customers. Everyone seems impressed with the UI and the deliverables. If anything, the number of workflows and options available COULD be overwhelming, if not for the expertise of the FactoryFour team in making it all digestible.

We utilize FactoryFour when our customers are looking to be more efficient and accurate in tracking their manufacturing/WIP processes. Regardless of the hardware technology, I am confident in FactoryFour's ability to track custom workflows and processes, provide a valuable and workable interface, and deliver the best reporting/data to our end users.

FactoryFour is a highly configurable software that flexes to your business processes unlike other of the shelf WIP solutions out there. It is as close to custom software as you could get without the price tag. FactoryFour team is continuously working to advance their software based on the feedback of their users. They are very responsive, and fast acting. They go above and beyond fto delight their customers.

Nothing comes to mind, because F4 is constantly improving and very open to feedback and requests. For instance, we needed a way to format labels and the FactoryFour team built in functionality into their software within a couple of weeks.

At Barcoding Inc we help customers become more efficient, accurate, and connected through supply chain automation and innovation solutions. FactoryFour has been a key piece of that solution to many of our customers, needing to gain visability into their manufacturing processes.

We were already using SAP to manage our business prior to bringing in FactoryFour. We had invested a lot in SAP and it was handling our inventory and billing, however it was not flexible enough to handle our custom manufacturing processes. FactoryFour was very flexible, integrating with SAP instead of replacing it, and allowing us to manage every manufacturing process uniquely and the way we wanted. We used it to manage our manufacturing from beginning to end, pulling in order data from customers all the way to tracking the product during production and shipment.

Configuring some of the integrations and rules required working very closely with the FactoryFour team. While their team is very responsive and gets the job done, we wanted more admin tools to be able to configure some of the things ourselves. Over time we've seen them make more admin tools to make it more and more self-service.

Many people feel "stuck" with the systems they already have in place and feel like they can't afford to improve their systems or try out new things. FactoryFour is made to integrate and improve your processes, not replace them. Don't be afraid to try!

We needed to take in custom order data from customers all over the world through our own application. We then took that order data and pushed it to production to manufacture each custom product. FactoryFour integrated with our application to pull the data and tracked each individual unique product through production to shipping so we knew exactly where a particular customer's order was. We reduced errors in production, greatly reduced lead time, and improved customer satisfaction.

The initial compelling reason to work with Factory Four was that they share our vision for innovation within the apparel manufacturing space. They have been easy to work with and have been extremely responsive to our needs.

Factory Four is new to the market and may not be as feature rich as some enterprises may want.

We use Factory Four to connect multiple unique systems and machines withing a very unique ecosystem.

FactoryFour is a modern software that is built from the ground up to be intuitive to use and for humans to interact with. For work-in-process (WIP) tracking, it's the best thing you can get on the market right now. It's customizable and flexible, enabling you to manage multiple different WIP scenarios. It also integrates with virtually any device for data input. We integrate barcoding and RFID systems with FactoryFour to automate the tracking process.

There is nothing that I have seen yet to dislike. FactoryFour is a rapidly growing company, and while there product is good right now, we expect it will continue to improve in the future with new features and integrations. We have engaged FactoryFour with multiple customers of ours because there is no better option for WIP and Process Automation.

Ask to set up a realistic and feasible POC. You should be delighted with any enterprise software purchase.

We offer hardware and software solutions to our clients, primarily involving barcoding and RFID. Work-in-process tracking is something that many businesses need.
