No more paper

Ape has enabled use as a company to eliminate paper and the problems that come with keeping it safe. With Ape, we are able to see how a project is progressing. The ability to have live feed means all records are available to whoever needs them instantly. It's important to our clients that we get them the information as soon as practicable, with ape it is as soon as they sign off. From our clients point of view, it means we are more transparent and our Q. Systems are more accurate. We are also taking advantage of the formulation side, for our works the are a lot of conversions and with APE all we need is the first number and the rest will be done from there like a calculator. The only difference is it's always right. APE has changed how we do business and it's the future of record keeping.

Pros

Live feed and time-saving

Cons

The need for phone service to send records.

Great Product and Support

Ape Mobile is a responsive program and support service. It is easy to use on site and doesn't lag or stutter while being used. Any additional features or bugs are promptly seen to by the service team.

Pros

Dropdown menus that are easy to edit

Cons

Some areas are not intuitive e.g. trying to edit the templates without any guidance. However this probably isn't something most people attempt to do. I am a little scared to do so in case I screw it up for everyone. But this is not really a concern or complaint just more of an understanding that I shouldn't try to adjust templates by myself.

Looks like a good customizable form making software

Pros

I liked the customization aspect. I like that they had some support to help you make the forms you wanted to digitize.

Cons

I don't like the way the forms like for input/entry. It isn't very user friendly. I feel like the interface could be better.

Ape mobile

The ape is easy to use but need more access to some areas and be able to do more editing in areas such as materials in use and some of the text areas aren't big enough. Being able to put an operator on more than one machine would be good without having to fill it out again.

Pros

Ease of use and information it's there when needed.

Cons

Sometimes takes a long time to load info.

Best Mullet

I have had nothing to do with the implantation of the system into our organization. I have just have to use it and I do not have any issues in using it. I have use a couple of other programs such as JDE, SAP, and MatrixOps. I do believe it can be made more user-friendly but that might just be they way our people ( who think they know everything and asked for no one else's input ) got it set up or have set it up. I ok with it, I have had a couple of friends from other organization's ask me about it and I have recommended to them to get it.
