The upside is very simple. Plex allows us to consolidate all avenues of our warehouse operations. Everything from inventory control all the way down to spare equipment parts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have yet to find anything to find fault in. There are pleasant surprises around every corner. The interface takes a little getting used to but nothing that we haven't overcome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the database that Plex can store. You can customize all the menus and options for your organization without any issues. It can be used by different departments such as Accounting, Engineering, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Purchasing, Quality, Logistics, all under one app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The user interface is not very friendly and it takes time to navigate through the menu and get accustomed. The Classic user interface is somewhat confusing. They have improved it in the newer cloud based interface. Search option could be better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The Security model is great, and the platform is very intuitive. We started with the Classic interface and now use UX for most processes. UX is the way to go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Changes and Updates need to be better communicated with all Plex customers. You have to pay extra to access Plex Education. The Customers Returns process aligns differently from what we do when processing our Returns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
How responsive the team at PLEX are and how well their system runs through the core manufacturing elements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The reporting could be improved and streamlined Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Ability to customize many screens and settings. The ability to add permissions to specific functionality. I like how everything is linked together, if you change the part number or description, the change cascades through the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is very hard to get a case resolved. It seems that it gets half-read and a quarter understood. We include steps to replicate issues and it seems like PLEX does not even attempt to recreate the issue. I rarely see evidence of them testing in our PCN. Also, I don't like that the green revision history book is not available everywhere in PLEX. Most of the stock reports either don't work or do not have the filters needed. All filters shouild be on all screens. We have to have a semi complicated Excel spreadsheet that outlines what filter is available on what screen and have to make decisions on how to tag our parts in the system Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's ability to integrate operational data and help track the performance KPI's
It really provides seamlesss connection with the business unit operational parameters directly into system Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It only provides data integration but does not provide presentation of the data in the form of dashboards
It would be really helpful for the management to interpret data direct from the dashboard Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Having everything in one place makes it easier to manage security and allows us to streamline a lot of processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So many settings and permissions on the setup side. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like that it is an all in one software package Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I don't feel like all the modules are completely set up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
All the plants are on the same system, it much easier to move between Plants. The Production module is very impresive Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Time for Bug fixes, and some of old data structure from early years causes issues from time to time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
