We don't use it, but I would be interested in your opinion after the demo. What did you like/dislike about it?
Anyone here using ETQ software? We are having a demo this week.
Out of curiosity, how long was the implementation time for just the CAPA module, since you said it was very easy to set up? ThanksWe have the CAPA module. I like it for the most part, although having only 1 module makes things a little more difficult. We got it 2 years ago and have been using it heavily just about since day1. We were supposed to get hte rest of the modules a year ago and budgets were cut...same thing happened this year. So, keep in mind that my opinion is probably a little narrow since I haven't seen how all the modules can work together to make my life a little easier.
It's very easy to look at any CAPA to see who is assigned, check the progress, or help out (or nag ) when needed. The e-mail alerts are very helpful but are easy to ignore. (Of course, any e-mail is easy to ignore!) It's harder for me to look for trends based on part numbers or specific defects. I believe this is because we don't have all the modules. Some users have had a hard time getting used to the database but that appears to be a function of computer experience and skills. I really liked how easy it was to set it up for us. I also like that we could link all sister plants to this. (So far, Corporate and each North America sister plant has seen it and been impressed. Too bad we all have budgets that we have to live in!)
Cons have been largely in the training. As I said, some people have had a hard time with it. That would be true regardless of which system we would have chosen.
Overall, I give it a 4 out of 5. Hope that helps!
