PolyPM Software

I have implemented PolyPM 4 times in the last 15 years. Intuitive, technology that works, 7x24 customer service, the highest return on any investment I have done. It is a no-brainer decision when acquiring an apparel company to bring PolyPM.

Since we started using Poly PM we've been able to achieve many things that with other softwares we could not even think on managing them.

Pros

Versatility and large number of features

Cons

I does not have an accounting module

Advice to Others

Good software, easy to use, very complet, and the Polygon People is ready to help in any time.-
We used for more six year and even today is the spine for our organization all department in the company use this value resource

Pros

Excellent technical support
Easy to use
Very complet

Cons

Need a web interface.-
More easy way to connect with the new technologies

I find this system to be very easy to use. Whenever I have a question, customer support is always extremely helpful.

We installed PolyPM a couple years ago, replacing the system we had used for numerous years. Needless to say, this software was extremely easy to learn and very operator friendly. Several of the employees in the manufacturing facility are now using PolyPM and very easily trained in a short period of time. It has met every need we have wanted and if it was not already in the program, Customer reps were great to jump in and get exactly what we needed and wanted.

I have used this software for more than 8 years, it is very friendly and easy to use, with personalized support, obtaining very good results in all processes of the manufacturing business, from raw material inventory management, finished goods inventory for our customers.

This is a very easy computer system to understand and work with everyday, with great quality customer service.

Have been working with Polygon for more than 10 years. Excellent product, excellent support. Polygon support team always ready to help with any new complicated business system requirements.

Pros

Highly flexible, robust, and easy to customize.

Cons

Because it's so powerful and flexible, it may not look as "pretty" as other non-flexible software but can have unique set-up for every user and surpasses other software in functionality.

Advice to Others

Product is highly recommended.

Make sure you have the right tools help the company to save Money and used on right places, that is what Poly PM does, because provide all the information that management needs to take right decisions. With all the tools that Poly PM have incorporated make easy manage all the production process.
I See on the market some tools that Poly PM have built in, like Production Planning, Automatic Cut Marker Calculation, Production Work flows and more; and does tools for other products are soo expensive and complicated to implement, but with Poly PM is much easier, faster and less expensive.

Pros

Poly PM change based on all the needs of the company and the type of business

Cons

Poly PM need to have more reports templates developed t make easy the process to create new reports

I have found this software to be very user friendly. I would highly recommend this software to any business. I have questions on occasion and contact customer support. They response time is wonderful.

It is great not use excell anymore, schedule on organized platform is very useful. Easy to understand.

Pros

Easy way to join information from different departments, sources.

Cons

Alerts on materials pending, incomplete developments.

Advice to Others

We would like to integrate differents schedules of previous process for manufacture.

I've been using POLY PM for about 4 years, and from the moment I started exploring the software I got surprised on the large number of features that the system was able to manage, and that you would normally need to buy 2 or 3 different products to handle the same scope. The versatility of its working screens and their user customization goodness is outstanding.
For a clothing manufacturing facility, it provides a clear vision of its inventories and workflow status from the most basic raw material up to a complex packaged product mix.
The Poly PM system is capable of truly replicating a very complex production process in a virtual environment, from customer order, to material requirements, vendor and warehouse management, fabric spread & cut planning, sewing, embellishing, and packaging following a manufacturing route that would satisfy even the most demanding of our customers.
The only weakness I have found so far is its lack of accounting features, but knowing POLYGON I am pretty sure that soon we will receive a new release containing those functionalities.
I Can't complain of their Customer Service, they can be quickly accessed by e-mail, skype, or cellphone.
Two thumb up POLY PM...!!!

We are a manufacturer of fireman's turnout gear. PolyPM was the only software that could handle the custom sizes and options that are available with our garments. Over the years Polygon has always found a solution to any issues that occur. They are always quick to respond when contacted. New releases are consistently issued that offer improvements and new features. The use of PolyPM has provided us with better inventory control, production planning and general company history. We continue to find new uses for the software.

I think it's a system with facilities for use. which has some things to improve .. like: 1. Technical Support 2. Better Performance for big records

We have been using PolyPM for over 10 years. It's been the perfect tool to manage our business, allowing us to make sound and informed business decisions. The system allows us to easily manage our inventory, and track production and costs efficiently.

My expectations regarding service during implementation and throughout the almost 10 years of use thus far. They are literally just a phone call away to discuss and work through any issue that may arise as physical (or software) processes change.

The exceptional customer support more than makes up for the infrequent quarks you might find in this product.

We implemented this software for our wholesale uniform business a couple of years back. From the start to finish, it was a great experience to work with Mickey and Andrew. They listened to our concerns and needs and did their best to give us what we were looking for. They custom-tailored many tasks and reports for us which has made it very easy for us to get answers quickly and efficiently. We love the ease of use of this software. But anytime we have any glitches which do happen occasionally, the customer support is exceptional!

I own and built this plant from scratch. I run it everyday and designed the previous software from scratch 30 years ago in Business Basic running on a UNIX platform.

Pros

Very flexible but has a lot of things I do not need or use which at this point cannot be completely customized.

Cons

Multiple levels of tasks in different menus to do a task.

Advice to Others

Wonderful owner of the company who is very knowledgeable of his product. Has a positive attitude and is very helpful.

In the Apparel Industries, it has been very helpful to control inventories of raw materials, finished products and visualize the workflow of the pieces to make. Excellent tool to manage production.

Pros

The menu, easy to use, Export data to other kind of format like excel, pdf, cvs, etc.

Cons

we don't have a module to receive FG on the FG warehouse

Advice to Others

Improve the procedure to manage Finished Inventory in order to receive Finished on the warehouse.
