Wow! Sensrtrx has changed our production floor

These guys were super helpful all the way (even after-sale and implementation). They have helped us eliminate a lot of waste and increase our throughput. I would estimate they have returned 10% to our bottom line.

PROS

Easy to use and understand for everyone on the team. Provides visibility we always needed (and things we didn't know we did).

CONS

If I had to nitpick, I would say there was a small learning curve getting everyone set up. It is probably better than most, but it still takes a little bit to get the team on board.

Rockstars!!!

PROS

Sensrtrx made the impossible, possible. At first we tried to get help from our machine manufacturers and obtained no results. We then spoke to other similar companies and they all said that the connection to the machine PLC and to figure out the data points was not their thing. SensrTrx took on the challenge and we now have all of our critical machines connected. The rep is very clever, resourceful, and determined to find solutions to every challenge posed to him, all with a great and easy to work with attitude.

CONS

Setting up the software to display the data the way we want it is a bit challenging to understand and learn. The rep has given us several training sessions and has done most of the leg work to get us setup. This is the only area I could see Sensrtrx improving to make it more intuitive.

Reasons for switching to Mingo Smart Factory

They couldnt get their system to pull info from our machine. We tried several time to contact them for support but got no positive result. Basically they could not perform to their original promise.

Vendor Response

Hi Ray, thank you for your review! I'm so happy to hear that SensrTrx has helped provide insight into your critical machines. Our goal is to help you gain visibility into your plant floor. I completely understand that the learning curve can be frustrating, but please know, our amazing customer support team is happy to provide as much training as you and your team needs. We are here to help you grow.

Absolutely the right Solution for our Manufacturing environment

Our experience has been very positive. You get out of it what you put into it, and you can move at your own speed of implementation. We will continue to roll this out to our remaining facilities at our own pace.

PROS

That we could install it & set it up ourselves, which avoided six-figure installation costs to a third party. The real-time data analytics allow you to impact change while an event is happening instead of when it's too late. Mingo continues to provide low-cost easy to implement solutions for businesses like ours that make it a very easy solution to use without having to add additional people to manage the platform.

CONS

Would be nice to have a little more functionality around restriction of data visibility among varying users at different locations.

Reason for choosing Mingo Smart Factory

They had the best team and solution for our business. Their implementation timeline and cost were also a fraction of every other solution we looked at, by a factor of ten or more.

Mingo Smart Factory is second to none!

Great! It has changed the way we capture and look at data.

PROS

* Allowed us to capture data in real time * Transitioned from a paper-based system to a digital system * Allowed us to capture a real OEE number and set goals for each area

CONS

We have not come across a true con yet in our experiences with Mingo Smart Factory.

Reason for choosing Mingo Smart Factory

Mingo Smart Factory had all of the items we wanted to track and get data for. All of the other systems worked on the assumption that we already had the data.

Great product for manufacturers

The product has provided extreme levels of visibility to the manufacturing plant floor, for machine downtime and utilization, production, machine status, etc. It runs consistently well, no downtime with the product that we've seen. It has replaced a lot of paper and Excel spreadsheets. Solid, friendly, and very knowledgeable team behind the product.

PROS

We like the Operator screen, production schedule capabilities, and the extreme flexibility with creating and editing dashboards. If you know how to use Excel you can create and edit dashboards...it's that easy. It is straight forward to connect to machines and get data out of them very quickly.

CONS

Integrations with ERP take some time, but that's normal. Most of the issues are usually on the end of the ERP.

Reason for choosing Mingo Smart Factory

Less costly, more flexible for the price, easier to connect and use, less training. It is the Goldilocks of solutions.

Unbiased data for unbiased decision making

First we needed to know that process variables were not varying beyond the intended settings. Second we wanted to know exactly when the equipment was used and how often. SensrTrx gathers exactly this information from the source. We use the process data for quality projects to eliminate certain issues as potential causes of scrap and instead focusing attention of the real problems. Knowing when machines are running informs efficiency improvement efforts moving focus between operator, machine and material issues.

PROS

- provides data from it's source, the machines themselves. This linkage gives confidence that the data can be trusted. - the customer support is the top notch, better than any other I've experienced in software or similar industrial services. Emails are answered. Calls are picked up. Concerns are addressed. They are patient. - it is extremely configurable to accommodate wide ranging manufacturing environments. The product was obviously designed by those with significant manufacturing experience as opposed to some software guys deciding to target manufacturing. Their knowledge of how manufacturing actually works comes through.

CONS

- the extreme configurability has a downside, so many options and variables to learn! As a relatively new user I'd prefer a simpler starting point. It takes time to understand the hierarchy and how the variables and settings interact. That said, we were given training two times to two sets of people and spent as much time as we wanted.

Reason for choosing Mingo Smart Factory

They clearly stated what they do and why in a white paper I found online. Their proposed solution and website were not overly 'marketized' and seemed more true in it's intent and execution.

Vendor Response

Hi Matthew, I appreciate your taking the time to leave us a review. I'm glad we can help you know when machines are running to improve efficiency. We pride ourselves in developing software that can actually improve productivity on the plant floor (and with the added bonus of great customer service, too). I completely understand the learning curve can be frustrating, but we are continually improving. The feedback you've provided helps us do that so thank you. We're looking forward to continuing to work with you.

PROS

Great Tools for Management and Operators

We have installed in 2 very different facilities and have had great results in both instances. We are working to move all of our operational KPI measurements into the ST environment to have a consistent platform not reliant on manual tracking in a spreadsheet. Looking forward to finding more ways to use the ST platform to help make us better. The staff is great to work with in finding ways to integrate the software into our model, and open to feedback.

PROS

The setup and install was straightforward and easily fit our unique business model(s). After install the operators now know how they are tracking to goals in real time, and management can make decisions in real time to allocate resources to best meet company goals. The ability to monitor a multi site manufacturing operation remotely is changing the way we make decisions.

CONS

There is not much to like least. A few of the features are geared more toward high volume, very short cycle time applications. In our business we have some cycle times that exceed 4 hours. This limits the real time tracking in a very small minority of the measures for dashboards and scoreboards.

Vendor Response

Hi Ben, We love to hear that SensrTrx is helping your business in many different ways, including empowering both your operators and management teams. You're right, we do appreciate the feedback - it is helpful in making the software better and better. Keep it coming! We're happy to have Tacony on board and look forward to continuing to work together.

Will increase profit and uptime

PROS

The structure/architecture of the software is very logical and is easy to configure. It is great to be able to configure for different plants also geographically separated and in different time zones. The integration with I/O is great and also that you can use information from Scada and PLC where you already are connected to sensors. For the Machine Operators it is easy to work with reasons for faults. The analytics and reports are extensive and seems sufficient for our needs. It is getting more and more important with integration with other systems like ERP and other systems and Sensrtrx has a good solution for this need. The Dashboard and Scoreboard gives you an excellent overview how the plant is working. It fits well into a modern architecture of Systems of Systems. We got very good training to learn how to configure the system and good support on the questions we had.

CONS

The system is intuitive and easy to use but there are always possibilities for improvements

Vendor Response

Goran, Thanks for taking the time to leave a review. We are thrilled you've had a great experience with SensrTrx that has made a positive impact on your business. We are always trying to improve the software. If you have any ideas of how we can make SensrTrx better, please don't hesitate to let us know. Feedback is greatly appreciated.

The Software that changed our game

The real data we get from our machines on the floor has changed the game for us. Production has increased by 4% over the last 7 months and we are trending up in the area of finished goods by almost 7%. The engineer who helped us with the install worked well with our facilities folks.

PROS

The ease of set-up and use was huge in adding the software. On our continuous journey in the areas of process improvement the data that this software has provided has helped us reduce downtime significantly.

CONS

Software is only 7 months old and we have only experience minor issues which were on our end.

Reason for choosing Mingo Smart Factory

Though pricing was a factor, the Sensrtrx team continues to develop new DNA for their core tracking software. Mamtec is a product of Epicor but only was going to get us about 75% of the way there as far as the analytics we needed to improve speed and quality.
