Backbone PlM with Plant Logic provides many benefits

This system is very user friendly, it's easy to use without any training required! The customization options are nearly endless so you can create your own solution that meets specific needs. There really isn't anything I dislike about this software other than perhaps adding more features or having some additional reporting capabilities would be nice (but those may not fit within their scope). We have used backbon in our organization as an inventory management tool but we also utilize its…

Pros
  • Backbone PLM is easy to use and it's available to all your employees so they can run reports and maintain inventory with minimal training
Cons
  • There's nothing really that I dislike about backbone plm, it's very easy to use and is just a helpful tool for maintaining inventory and reporting

Using this tool allows me integrate testing directly with product development

I like that Backbone is integrated into our QA process, so we can track issues through the lifecycle of a project. It's also great that you can create custom workflows to help speed up the resolution time. I wish there was an option to export/download data in a CSV format. I have had to rely on 3rd party applications to export my data (such as Excel). There are some features that are not intuitive, but once you figure them out they're easy to use. We've been able to track issues through the…

Pros
  • Easy integration with many tools
  • Good UI for navigation or searching within projects.
  • Ability add additional fields such user notes & attachments via forms postings
  • Trackability when issue status changes throughout life cycle very useful!
Cons
  • Not always clear how all filters work
  • Inclination sometimes takes much longer than expected

Great Solution for managing Manufacturing Supply Chain

I like that we can create complex manufacturing processes in one platform instead than having multiple tools, it also is easy enough so anyone could use without any training required or learning curve needed! It's not perfect as there are some features which require additional licenses but overall its good solution if you want your supply chain data centralized rather then spread across various software solutions (such as ERP). We have been using this tool since 2016 when they first launched…

Pros
  • Easy to implement
  • Low cost
  • No need for expensive hardware equipment requirements e
Cons
  • Nothing here

Great product paired with excellent customer service

I like that it's very easy to use, both as an individual or within our larger organization. It is intuitive and is quickly adopted by people who are used to more traditional ERP systems. The fact that we can customize many screens so they reflect what we need makes this a great fit in my opinion. We were able to take some basic functions such as cost coding into Backbone without spending additional time customizing them after implementation. This made us feel confident that we would have good…

Pros
  • I also like the ability to add custom fields to almost any screen
Cons
  • I would also like to see more integration with SAP S/4HANA Cloud SuccessFactors
