There are so many helpful features! Lately I've been enjoying the projects module for managing our phase-gate processes for product development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The email notification system is my least favorite aspect. Emails and reminder emails should be easier to manage. It feels a little all over the place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is entirely built on Salesforce, which makes it very customizable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The data model is very complex, and some junctions are generated via Apex, making the mapping even more difficult. To support the complexity of the solution, there are many custom components that were built. This makes the administration different than what you would generally do in Salesforce. Not an issue if you've mainly worked in Propel, but some of our more experienced Salesforce Admin need to change their mindset. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Our ERP and CPQ are on the Salesforce platform, so we needed a tool to manage Product data and documents in a multi-company design. Propel was a natural fit for us to single-source and harmonize our product dataset on the Salesforce platform. We now have a line of sight to all Quoted and Sold products throughout their product lifecycle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Defining the Product Category Hierarchies is a little clunky and does not migrate well from Sandbox to Production environments. However- that is being very picky. There is not a lot of downside to this purpose-build application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is an electronic QMS system and has modules for most of our needs
Trying to improve my grade so that I get more points on the Propel scale, with buz words like Change control and PLM and QMS and CAPA, NCMr and training recors module. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Lots. The preview and collaboration functionality is really discouraging. The whole point of an electronic system is to not have to download and upload documents all the time. In that regard, our paper system worked better. The preview needs to be able to preview a word document accurately with images and charts, etc. The other thing is that the number of clicks it takes to get somewhere, like from the ECO title page to the actually document preview can sometimes be 5, 6 7 clicks (and waiting for salesforce). Then the back button does not take you back one page but so far back it is another 3 or 4 clicks to be able to review the next document in the ECO. There must be a better way to go backwards.
To get to the preview link 'button', it is always buried way off to the right after a bunch of other columns that are never populated.
we have a five digit part number with no prefix o suffix. if the part is 04275 the search engine does not find it if you search for 4275. it does better if you search for 042. Why can't it search more intuatively.

Propel is a software that is characterized by its great performance and effectiveness to handle customer complaints, find solutions to problems that present products or services and allow users to provide a high quality service. The software is perfect to accelerate the commercialization of products or services, help increase quality processes, carry out detailed follow-up of employees among many other tasks, which allows to increase the effectiveness of the business operation. The service has a very affordable cost even for small businesses or companies, which is a great advantage, the service is based on the web, has a very well structured interface, its design is quite elegant and orderly, it should be noted that despite its learning curve it is an interface that once people get used is easy to use.

The tool, being so complete in terms of all its functions, leads to a learning curve for beginners, I consider it necessary to see more training to help new users integrate more easily into the operation of the service. As for faults, I can say that I have viewed very few so I really have no complaints, since the service works very well to cover all our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The propulsion interface is somewhat inaccurate, where I was able to identify a programming error, in which your system becomes completely slow and not very functional, which is evidenced by activating commands of established patterns to carry out activities, attenuating your Product data mobilization capacity, where the corresponding benefits cannot be obtained as established with its joint operational guarantee functionalities.

It helps us stay organized. That's truly the value of the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is way too expensive for what it is. And the sales team forced us to do and PAY for onboarding training that we kept insisting wasn't necessary for us. That really started our relationship out on the wrong foot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Cloud based, so the setup is super simple. We were up and running in a matter of days. The user training they provided was pretty straight forward if you have used a PLM in the past. The admin training was also a bit more complex as it run off of salesforce and I didn't have salesforce admin experience in the past, but their support and their help center website has provided all the help I needed so far.

The fact that it's built off of salesforce is a good thing and a bad thing. It is customizable, but at the same time there are too many different things that could be done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
