## Reviews

### "Great Software for small to middle market companies\!" — 4.0/5

> **Joe** | *4 September 2019* | Machinery | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ability to customize the menus and also the ability to work with Workwise and get modifications if needed.
> 
> **Cons**: Please upgrade the whole system to the new programming platform and end the old legacy ties.

-----

### "TCM ERP review" — 4.0/5

> **RICK** | *19 February 2019* | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Wide functional flexibility, good range of modules.  On-line help has improved a lot, inside support when you make a connection is good.  In emergency situations response has been good.  Upgrades have gone better than most in my past.
> 
> **Cons**: Printing \&amp; pdf use could be much better without use of 3rd party support.  MODs should be rolled into future revs vs ongoing upgrade charges \&amp; still dealing with a mod years after.  Patches \&amp; updates seem to throw problems into mix due to incomplete testing.  Customer support on cases can lag way too long, 3 yrs \&amp; longer, avg 90 days or more, not acceptable to users  Bugs \&amp; lack of support create frustration in users that TCM support within our organization (like me) then has to overcome or accept while supporting Workwise software.
> 
> As a strong user in 7 different ERP software tools in my career, Workwise is the 2nd most easy \&amp; powerful of tools I have used.  Fixing bugs or problems 7 dealing with mods has been a rough spot along the way over my 9 years as a user.

### "Our users love the new user interface via Workbenches.  The product continues to evolve/get better\!\!" — 5.0/5

> **Vincenzo** | *15 August 2017* | Military | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Love the Workbenches.  Love the integrations with OnContact CRM.  Love how accessible data is.  Our user group is great and everyone participates.  The data dumps to Excel have been huge for our company.  Well done.
> 
> **Cons**: Need to really know the database when mining for data.  When needing to delegate work I often find myself assisting with where to get the data from and making sure the table joins are correct.

### "Small and Medium Business ERP Software" — 4.0/5

> **Michael** | *27 June 2017* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The software is updated regularly and the development is really driven by the customers.  It is on the leading edge of ERP systems for its target market. Many of the modules that are available address everything a manufacturer needs to run their business.
> 
> **Cons**: First, since they are consistently updating and modifying the software there is a good chance for bugs and problems. Second, scaling to thousands of users would be difficult, however, since it is targeted at the SMB market this may not be that much of an issue. Finally, it could be stronger in some of the data entry areas, sometimes it can seem overly complex to complete basic tasks.
> 
> The ability to run most of our processes through a single software package. Information visibility and reporting is very easy because of this.

### "30 + User" — 4.0/5

> **Dan** | *1 March 2019* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Software is very flexible, multiple ways to perform different functions. Chose the modules you need now and add others later.  You don't have to change company processes to force them to fit the software.  Very strong in manufacturing and inventory control. User are able to provide input for future enhancements. The role based work benches are customizable to each user if needed
> 
> **Cons**: Upgrades are released to frequently at times before fixing bugs in the current version.  Setting up the security from an admin standpoint needs to be improved
> 
> Work Wise truly partners with their customers.  The users groups are always customer facing rather that sales focused.  The users truly have the opportunity to drive enhancements, attending the meetings adds a huge value product.
