About ShiftWorx™ MES Solution

READ MORE REVIEWS

“Feature rich management system with exceptional ROI. Easily deployable by anyone with reasonable ability to follow directions. Dashboard visuals require less setup than many other systems and are focused on real business needs. The price is extremely affordable, and you’re not forced to use proprietary hardware beyond that which is needed to communicate to the cloud backend.”

~Michael M., Magna International Inc.

“At ITW Ramset, we are proud to be working alongside ShiftWorx™ in delivering an easy-to-use, user-friendly, customizable Manufacturing Operations Platform to support our business needs. It works in real-time on a range of devices such as PCs, Laptops, Tablets, TVs, and mobile phones.

From a quality and compliance perspective, we are very pleased with checklists, cost of scrap, and batch number record keeping for traceability. The scheduling system is easy to use. Operators and Production KPI’s performance matrix is easy to read with a large variety to choose from. Andon alerts help drive fast response times to support our manufacturing floor and reduce unnecessary delays. The new OEE% reporting helps drive our QMS (Quality Management Systems and Reviews).”

~Sapphira C., ITW Ramset Dry Division

“After implementing ShiftWorx, Excel experienced a 40% decrease in machine downtime. Runtime on our cutting machines increased by 50%. All employees could see how their machine was running and this helped engage machine operators in keeping their machines running and identifying reasons for downtime.”

~Colleen W., Excel Connection Inc.

“Overall Good Price for the product. Very much like it , and will implement in a broader scheme. The direct visual bars and KPIs are great for machining or production. Reporting feature very nice. It’s a mature product and is low cost.”

~Miao Z., Narmco Group Ltd.

“Great real time software! Easy visual of our plant’s productivity.”

~Joe I., Centoco Plastics Ltd.

“We’ve had similar solutions, but it hasn’t been as good as FreePoint’s. Their support staff gets back with questions and answers very quickly. It’s made our transition almost seamless – very easy. Shop foreman’s lives are so much easier now too; in the past, they would have to keep notes in their pockets to keep track of issues on the floor. Now, they get that 100% accurate data, in real-time.”
