I'm the QA Supervisor at a small fastener manufacturer/distributor and we are currently looking for new software or platform to manage our customer and vendor complaints. About 12 years ago the company had an independent software developer build us a platform that handles both customer and vendor complaints, feedback, disposition of goods as well in-house communication to facilitate product investigations related to issues from customers and vendors. It is used by our QA, Sales, Accounting/Admin, Purchasing and Manufacturing departments and we are all growing tired of how clunky it has become.
We are weighing our options on whether to invest more money into the present platform or find a suitable replacement. The current platform communicates with with our ERP, Epicor Prophet 21, so that is one functionality we are looking to continue if we choose a new solution.
Here are few other things built into the platform that we are hoping to continue if went with something new.
Welcome any feedback, thank you.

- Direct email communication with suppliers and customers from the platform
- Charge back and return management
- Non-conforming/quarantine management
- Freight damage/carrier claims
- Inventory investigations/Bin Checks
- Supplier and Customer Corrective Action
Welcome any feedback, thank you.
