Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

I'm really happy with the easy to use UI, and they do regular updates. The support we've received during implementation from customer success has been super helpful in getting everyone on board.

Cons:

I find it a bit difficult to understand the detailed specifications of the search function. Also, while the service is supposed to be used along with our internal management system, it lacks the ability to integrate with our functions like APIs, forcing us to rely on unstable RPA for tasks like entering information. I hope these areas will be improved.

A Google search for Drawings

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Value for money

Customer support

Functionality

Pros:

To create less mistakes, we created PGs (Process Guides) by referencing past successful similar cases. Even new guys can easily search for similar drawings, letting them create PGs based on them as references. This means that other veteran employees don't need to directly educate them on PGs created by them, as new employees can learn the methods of PG creation on their own.

Cons:

It would be great if the system could optimize searches based on similar past searches. Hoping for better usability when searching and viewing differences in similar drawings. If the system reads drawings as 3D shapes, it'd be really helpful if it could show more accurate differences regardless of how the drawings were scanned or in PDF format.

Functionality

Pros:

For drawing management, being able to search for items such as shape and tags that other systems cannot search for allows for much smoother use. In the future, it seems that we'll be able to improve this through price verification and adding defect information.

Cons:

There are some quirks with the functionality: When logging in for the first time, you're prompted to register a password from the password change screen. It's only the first time, but was a bit confusing. I'd like more permission control. Some drawings that appear similar are not actually very similar when using the similarity search, depending on how many similar drawings we have stored. Enhancement of the difference display function. Even a slight misalignment results in the entire content being treated as a difference. Addition of upload functionality for basic information.

Pros:

Because the new hires are not quite up to speed on reading drawings yet, using drawer lets them to find similar ones quickly,

Cons:

Since we often search by drawing number, it would be helpful if we could enter any character in the middle of the drawing number instead of aligning it to the left when inputting.

Important tool for efficiency and uniformity

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Customer support

Functionality

Pros:

Search results are based on the similarity of character strings and shapes. This is important for our company's drawings, which often have similar shapes due to subtle differences in shape or different numbering systems between departments.

Cons:

The basic UI is easier to use than our previous drawing management system, and if we could have traced back the sub-numbers, we would have been able to migrate almost all of our drawings to CADDi DRAWER.

Expanding the Utilization of Drawings

Specifically, we have seen a significant improvement in operational efficiency and cost reduction. New features are being released one after another, so we expect the scope of utilization to expand even further in the future. We are considering using the system not only in the purchasing and design departments, but also in other departments.

Pros:

The similarity search has contributed greatly to our cost reduction activities by allowing us to select appropriate suppliers and link purchasing information. The OCR search has also improved the searchability of drawings, which has greatly reduced the time previously spent 'looking for drawings'.

An Essential Tool for the Purchasing Department

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

The CADDi DRAWER Application Support Department is working with us to help us establish the use of CADDi DRAWER within the company. Our requests are also reflected in the software as they emerge in updates. The speed of this process is also very fast. Six months have passed since the introduction of CADDi DRAWER. Thanks to them, CADDi DRAWER has become an indispensable item for our purchasing staff.

Cons:

Difference analysis and search for similar drawings from punch pictures could use slight improvement because of drawing complexity. In the future, purchasing operations will change dramatically if it becomes possible to provide quotations from DRAWER and recommendations for ordering vendors and ordering unit prices.
