Use CyberPlan for Your Planning Needs

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: We are able to plan now that we have access to Cyberplan. The primary advantages that we have gained from this change are a higher overall service level, improved control over stock levels, and reduced expenditures on new supplies.

Pros:

The software contains a number of fascinating and "strong" features, which are positive qualities. To begin, it ensures that all of the fundamental features of an APS, such as demand management and MRP, will be available. It is possible to integrate it with other systems in a simple and straightforward manner. The capacity to archive the different databases and to retrieve them while operating within a simulation setting The capability as well as the proactive participation of consultants in improvements.

Cons:

Lack of flexibility on the user's end: while there is a lot that can be accomplished with the assistance of consultants, it would be preferable to have greater control over some aspects of the process. Graphically, it has room for improvement. There is no mechanism to navigate between the levels of the MRP, which means that you cannot easily go up and down through the many elaborations of the MRP that correspond to the different levels of the bill of materials.

Useful

5.0 6 years ago

Comments: Repetitive and low added value activities are carried out by the software while the planner overlook from time to time and tries to change the inputs of the calculations in search for the best planning scenario. In short: we would be buy it again for sure.

Pros:

CyberPlan is an extremely powerful tool in the hands of a skilled planner. Using this software has been a positive revolution for us, coming from an analogic way of working with a multitude of Excel files, something that caused chaos and led to bad decisions countless times. The main pros are: Ease of use, since a new planner can lear how to use it in a short amount of time Speed of calculations, since we save hours every time we plan (twice a day) Customisation, that allows us to adapt CyberPlan to our manufacturing process Depth of analysis Ability to export the results, that is useful while communicating with other departments The consultants, who are serious and caring professionals Integrability with the erp Reliability

Cons:

It could be a bit expensive at first, but it made our planning do a huge step forward in terms of effectiveness and the benefits we got justified every penny.

Great dynamic and customized planning tool

4.0 4 years ago

Comments: SInce working with Cyberplan for more that 10 years I can confirm it is a 5 starts planning tool, not only for production sequences but material availability for this optimized sequences. Helps to keep inventories under control in low levels.
Despite there are a hugh amount and menus of things to use and explore, you will use daily the same 4-6 menus. I would like to get more detailed information about rest of possibilities that Cyberplan can offer me but I don´t really know.

Pros:

Easy integration with all ERP (JDE, and Oracle in my case). Very fast and dynamic tool. What if scenarios Customized software Help to take faster and more accurated decissions.

Cons:

Once you understand difference between scheduled and planned data (finite vs infinite capacities) you will understand how powerfull Cyberplan software is. However, in my experience, it will take time to be an expert user. Not easy DIY customization (not intuitive). Multi-users at the same time working on the same software can be a problem.

Plan with Cyberplan

4.0 6 years ago

Comments: Without Cyberplan we simply did not plan and with Cyberlan today instead we plan. The main benefits we have obtained are: an increase in the Service Level, a better management of stock levels and a saving on purchase costs.

Pros:

There are several interesting and "powerful" aspects of the Software. First of all, it guarantees all the basic functionalities of an APS: Demand Management, MRP, etc. There is the possibility to easily interface it with other systems. The possibility of obtaining important Customizations with the support of consultants. The considerable availability of linked tables and views. The ability to archive the various databases and retrieve them in a simulation environment. The competence and the proactivity of consultants in developments.

Cons:

User-side flexibility: with the help of consultants, you can do a lot; it would be better to be able to do something more independently. Graphically it could be better. There is no possibility of MRP navigation between the levels: that is, going up and down on the different MRP elaborations of the various levels of the bill of materials in an easy way.

Advanced Planning Scheduling Software - CyberPlan -

5.0 6 years ago

Comments: Benefits after Cyberplan adoption are:
- manufacturing/supply chain bottleneck identification;
- production capacity saturation;
- production workload balancing;
- lead time improvement.

Pros:

Cyberplan base algorithm is very strong, thus gives the users the possibility to understand where production plan is going. You can identify Supply Chain Breakdown in a intuitive and genuine environment. This gives the user the ability to react in a fast way. The possibility to navigate the entire system just using the right mouse button menu is the best feature.

Cons:

Despite the intuitive design, general look should be improved.

Grande velocità di calcolo e quindi di risposta

5.0 12 months ago

Pros:

Il maggiore vantaggio che la nostra azienda ha ottenuto con Cyberplan è la possibilità di eseguire ricalcoli dei fabbisogni in modo molto veloce permettendoci di simulare agilmente diversi scenari e scegliere quello con l'output che fa più al caso nostro. Inoltre Cyber funge da raccoglitore di una grande quantità di informazioni altrimenti sparse in diverse sezione del nostro ERP che ci permettono anch'esse di prendere decisioni rapide.

Cons:

forse la cosa che mi piace meno di Cyber è la mancanza di possibilità di poter personalizzare le visualizzazioni delle diverse schermate per i diversi utenti.

utente veterano di Cyberplan

4.0 9 months ago

Comments: lo ritengo uno strumento per noi indispensabile per poter monitorare la capacità produttiva in base alle continue variazioni provenienti dal mercato

Pros:

la modalità di risalire dagli ordini clienti ai componenti e viceversa; la possibilità di leggere i dati sia in forma tabellare sia grafica; le informazioni grafiche del profilo MRP per centro di lavoro; la tabella MPS; la possibilità di simulare diversi scenari ed avere subito l'effetto sulla capacità dei reparti; la possibilità di spingersi nelle varie aree a diversi livelli di complessità, secondo le esigenze

Cons:

che attualmente, da quando siamo migrati a SAP, non abbiamo più accesso ai log e quindi abbiamo meno sottocontrollo possibili errori; è uno strumento complesso che richiede periodi di formazione mediamente lunghi prima di avere risorse in grado di utilizzarlo
