Gage Control Software

The Easiest Software Yet

Comentários: Customer service was excellent, the price embarrasses the competition, tech support was on point and able to assist integration into our systems flawlessly. Even exporting all of our data over from our previous system came at no extra cost where all competitors I reviewed would charge for this critical service.

Vantagens:

Every step, every window, every option is designed with the end user in mind. The software is simplistic in all of the right ways, in the sense that almost anyone can pick up this software and run with it.

Desvantagens:

It's hard to pick a Con for this software, you would have to be nitpicking to find an issue.

Excellent application for an AS9100C manufacturer of corporate aircraft like us. Highly recommended.

Comentários: Increased our visibility. Improved our ability to plan. Reduced expedited re-calibrations. Most of all improved the overall quality of our process and reduced our risk of non-compliance. The dashboard provides the necessary metrics for AS9100C and AS9100D.

Vantagens:

We are an AS9100C Certified aerospace manufacturer of corporate aircraft. As such, calibration is critical to manufacturing at all levels. Our research revealed Gage Control Software provided the visibility, retention and alerts necessary. This product is an asset to our quality management system providing much needed insight and performance metrics to assure ISO and AS9100C. As we prepare migrate to the new AS9100D Certification we are pleased to learn that Gage Control Software is already compliant. The product is intuitive and easy to use but should the need arise, service and support is prompt and professional. The team at Gage Control Software is small but mighty. Highly recommended.

Not user friendly. Staff resistant to changes when needed.

Vantagens:

Gage Master List is a good layout, but cannot make customization as needed. The customization is minimal, unfortunately. Previously used other gage software that would put this one to shame - and not much more expensive.

Desvantagens:

Can not make changes when needed - not enough admin. Support not patient with new users. Software - for the most part - not as advertised.

User review

Comentários: My Company purchased Gage Control about 2 months ago and I have been the primary person to make all the inputs. Pros:
-You can put locations and personnel assignments on a piece of equipment if you choose to do so.
-The additional feature indicating if equipment is onsite or off (and where), saves a lot of stress on trying to remember if we sent off a gage for calibration.
-I enjoy the versatility of the program in that you can integrate things into the program like training, equipment, audit requirements and still keep the vastly different items separate and organized.
-This program is very user friendly. When I train other personnel how to use it, they are good for use after 20-30 minutes of training. I get very few "how to questions" afterward. I can say, "this is the easiest program my Company operates".
-The "best feature" of all is when creating a report, I can make a list and tailor it to show only the information I need. Then I have additional sort options like, "sort by date". This is very useful. Cons:
-This is very minor. The program will not automatically change a status after an expiration date. For example if you have a piece of equipment that expires on the first of the Month, and it's status is "active", the program won't change that to "expired" on the second of the Month. You have to do that manually. For some Companies that is good because you don't want a program automatically expiring equipment that may have a grace period. For Companies with like mine with aviation standards this is very minor because you have to go by the date every single time on every single piece of equipment. Overall:
I am pleased with the function and utility of the program. It does the job we desired it to do. I would recommend this to any Company desiring to track equipment and events with time based requirements.

For our small shop this has been an excellent system to keep track of our equipment

Comentários: simple, easy and fulfills the needs we have .

Vantagens:

simple to use and set up can quickly find our equipment and keep it in calibration. Great reports also for audits.

Desvantagens:

Just a glitch when we set up so every now and then the system wont let me log in telling me we are over our user limit. I think this was a mistake on our part when we set up.
