EXCELLENT TOOL AND MATERIAL MANAGER
Kommentare: the product have being helpful, to manage all our tools and machines on the construction site, we could account for every tool easily and cost of maintenance on each.
Vorteile:
The product helps me to manage tools and machines assigned to work men, with a well documentation of the person to be held responsible for the tools, and the location the tools will be used , i think this is perfect for me, it has a very good presentation , well organised
Nachteile:
the interface sometimes has network issues that slows down the product, but i hope with future update this challenge would be resolve, this product has helped our company give a comprehensive account of all our tools,material and machines

Many Features, Powerful Software - Need to simplify the basics, especially on the app
Kommentare: Overall, I'm glad we have it
Vorteile:
It will do nearly anything you want it to
Nachteile:
my major gripe is that transfers of tools via the app is not as smooth, simple or intuitive as i feel like it could and should be. also, the fact that is run as a data base makes it powerful, but it also allows too much variation in input of data - a more regimented input system would go a long ways to keeping the data base standardized across users who input tool data.

Gave them money and received 0 value in return.
Kommentare:
The original sales person who sold us on the program added sections that we had no idea what they were for, but we were charged for. The CFO would not refund our cost for the software add-ons. Training was promised (and paid for) and support, but it never panned out and we were left out in the dark to figure things out on our own. The sales person who we dealt with said that the software could do certain functions that we later found out to be not true. Syncing our very pricey mobile device was a total headache. (it sits on my desk as a reminder of what we invested and lost doing business with this company.) When we decided to part ways and not renew our subscription (very expensive by the way) we wanted all our data that we had spent months entering to populate the database... We were originally told that if needed they could export and make it seamless. We received a hundred pages of scripted text and left to figure out a way of retrieving the data for us to import into a different asset tracking program.. THAT was a total headache.
If you partner yourself with this company, you are very angry at your money and your trying to get away from it as fast as possible!
Vorteile:
Good presentation and visually looked great.
Nachteile:
spotty support, UN-fulfilled promises, syncing issues with mobile devices, cloud based headache, spent money and all I have left to show for it is a box of barcode stickers and scanning equipment that is useless to our company for anything else. I could be here for days... Let's just say, anything you think this program can do for your company with probably be difficult if not next to aggravating to accomplish.

Toolwatch for billing
Vorteile:
I have been a Toolwatch user for about 30 years and I have had the experience to work with a highly refined tool tracking software. The current version of Toolwatch Enterprise is very easy to setup ant train others on the ease of use. The main feature that I like with Toolwatch is the asset tracking and locations reports. It has made my job of managing a large network of tools, furniture and equipment very easy. At any given time I can run a report for all of our equipment and their locations and generate an accurate equipment billing.
Nachteile:
The only thing that I have disliked about Toolwatch is the lost data over the years of updating the software and migrating data. I have lost a lot of purchase dates and purchase cost of items that were entered into the system. It is not a huge deal but when i look up an item and want to see what the cost was or when it was purchased and the fields are blank it is disappointing. This is my only con.
Vincent
Decent Software, Very Helpful Customer Support
Kommentare: ToolWatch has organized our company in ways we couldn't imagine. After adopting the software to track the locations of assets, we now utilize the software for tracking purchases, service and repairs on equipment, job costs, and much more.
Vorteile:
The best part about the software is that there are many different facets that can be utilized. You can always find a different piece of the software that you might be able to utilize in your company.
Nachteile:
You are sometimes forced to change your company processes to adapt to the software rather than easily adapting the software to fit the company processes.

Lots of features - most not necessary
Kommentare: ToolWatch was great at first. It was simple and user-friendly. They started adding more and more features and charging more and more money for them whether you used them or not. Our price with them tripled in a year due to them changing the cost structure.
Vorteile:
I like the report feature of ToolWatch. Any info I need to know can be accessed very quickly and is shown in an organized, neat report.
Nachteile:
I don't like that ToolWatch has added lots of features and charges us for them. We really only need a program that checks tools in and out and provides reports, as we have other programs for the rest. It would be better if the added features were optional.

Job Cost & Billing at your fingertips!
Vorteile:
The biggest impact on our company from ToolWatch has been giving employees visibility and control over equipment, tools and materials on their jobs. Before, it was a loose, often faulty process and rates were outdated and inconsistent from year to year. ToolWatch has been able to give us the control we need.
Nachteile:
I think the hardest thing for us was creating an effective, workable Org Tree. I don't think we were fully aware of just how much this affected so much down the line. We asked for the advice of the implementation manager and the response we got wasn't entirely helpful. I'd also like to see the Sage300 integrated improved a little bit!
Ken
Overall, I am not happy with this app
Vorteile:
I really do not have anything positive to say about the app and wish we could go back to Alltrak.
Nachteile:
Our admin tried to get support for the issues we were having with the app and the Tool Watch support team just blamed us for the issues and offered no help at all.
Elizabeth
Customer Service is Great!
Kommentare: During a recent secondary implementation of ToolWatch, in order to start billing of Information Systems Equipment, we needed to perform a few hundred transfers to different cost centers. The ToolWatch team wholeheartedly supported our new initiative and performed all these transfers for us. This is GREAT customer service! Thanks so much, Elizabeth, IS Project Manager at Gaylor Electric.
Vorteile:
The database is constantly needing to be synching. It would be great if we didn't have to worry about if it was synched or not.
Nachteile:
During billing exports I have to unselect and select individually. I would love to be able to select using ctrl or shift...doing this in groups. It would make this process go much faster.

OK piece of software
Vorteile:
The software integrates with an industry standard construction software called Sage 300 CRE which makes it pretty seamless in keeping inventory.
Nachteile:
Kind of a hokey program and can have many issues when running on an RDS desktop. Doesn't support some legacy barcode systems.

Great Turnkey Asset Management Solution
Kommentare: ToolWatch was chosen to help our construction company manage our tool and equipment inventory at multiple warehouse and job site locations. In 2.5 years our database has grown to 3,350+ model records comprised of 42,700+ active items. Our employees use ToolWatch to accurately manage assignments of assets allowing us to generate the necessary accounting recovery to recoup the operating expenses from projects and minimize end of project losses. Having access to the Reporting Cloud allows us to develop customized reporting and business intelligence that Project Management and Leadership have grown to rely on. ToolWatch's API allows us a channel for bi-directional communication of data generated in ToolWatch to our existing ERP. Most support related issues are resolved same day unless escalation to development is required. In the past year ToolWatch has made great progress in developing a mobile platform (iOS/Android) that is very polished and shows great promise. We are excited to put it to use in the field to expedite our requisition process. The ToolWatch staff, from Support, Sales, and Development, have been a pleasure to work with and we look forward to our continued partnership.
Vorteile:
Turnkey Solution, minimal development for custom reporting and API integration. The mobile apps on iPhone/Android work really well. The ToolWatch development team works on a evolving road map which brings continuous improvements to our investment.
Nachteile:
The Enterprise desktop client can be sluggish at times. We are optimistically waiting for planned updates to the application that should resolve this.
Tommy
Best Software we have to manage Assets and Tools. We under-utilize its many features.
Vorteile:
It forces you to be very organized on what you track and how. Rollup reports are very nice. Mobility has really increased our efficiency in getting things checked in and out.
Nachteile:
Would like to see automated email reporting I need people to know (and own) ho many tools their departments have at any given time. Customized reporting should be available as well. Would really appreciate a "remember me" button upon login.

Tommy, Thank you for the review! We really appreciate you taking the time to leave both pros and cons. We hear you about the email reporting, we call it notifications and we are evaluating how we can bring that functionality to our users this year. So stay tuned! We do have a custom reporting solution! Actually there are two options, either our Reporting Cloud or through our API. A Success team member will be reaching out to you do discuss. And again Thanks for the Review! Best, Team @ ToolWatch

Great Software, Great Company
Kommentare: Our Company has worked with ToolWatch for quite a few years now and they have been very good at helping us shape the tool around our needs. We have over 23,000 bars coded tools, and 2,200 consumables in our database, so we certainly use this product to its fullest potential. Our business environment requires a lot of custom reporting and specialty data needs as we are always innovating with new applications and technology. The staff at ToolWatch has been very accommodating with helping us get API access to our tools database in order to take full advantage of our data. We are also very excited about all of the new products that ToolWatch is working on, like the Field App and the Rfid scanners. Working specifically with Casi and Ron on several of our last development efforts has been a great experience as they have been responsive and knowledgeable at each turn. This tool can do a lot of cool stuff and the staff is great.

Toolwatch Review
Kommentare: Overall, I liked the experience of the Toolwatch program.
Vorteile:

Tool Watch is a great system.
Kommentare: Tool Watch has been very helpful in finding tools, and getting tools repaired under warranty.
Vorteile:
Ease of use. The system is very easy to use for first timers. Tool lookup is great to use when looking for tools in our inventory, if barcode is missing you can lookup with description or serial number.
Nachteile:
Report feature. I would like the report feature to be more customizable, with the ability to save previously run reports.

Smooth Integration
Kommentare: The overall experience with ToolWatch has been positive for both our warehouse staff and the field personnel. They are getting more comfortable with the system and this has improved our ability to react to their needs. It has saved us processing time while improving our accountability.
Vorteile:
The overall experience with implementing ToolWatch is straightforward and relatively simple. The support staff did a great job of working with us to ensure our data was set up in the proper format and this made the change easy.
Nachteile:
While some of the reporting functions could use a little improvement, they are very open to working on change requests for different feature upgrades.

Riddled with bugs
Kommentare: The only reason I still have this program, is because I don't have the time to convert all the information to a new one.
Vorteile:
Um, nothing. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.
Nachteile:
Can’t type notes in a retired tool Won’t allow an inspection recurring every two, three years “Certification” recurrence not working in program Tools won’t delete, unless deleted multiple times, reboot a couple times. Service event will not delete. Work order GUI messed up. Workaround: generate w/o from tool. Sort of. “Lists” purchasing / receiving menu messed up. Set up 3000 mile PM on vehicle, created work order for last PM, reset miles to higher than called for PM, no service message. Multiple crashes. Worst one when I had a large transfer almost complete. Locked up computer. “Fatal error” message sent to toolwatch. Editing tasks in service tab tool model, locked up. Editing condition of a quantity tool, asked if I wanted to edit all tools in this category, “yes” said it would reset quantity to zero? It didn’t reset the quantity, and didn’t update the status. Can’t modify a transfer or work order once processed. Transfer history report doesn’t reflect what is currently transferred to employee* When adding cost to a tool, must put price under “replacement value”- “retail” doesn’t register as a value (2) major crashes, toolwatch shut down both times during transfers ETC

2% USER FRIENDLY
Kommentare: Although the support is somewhat helpful, support can only do what they can do as their hands are tied. It is the developers behind the curtain who need to think outside their box!
Vorteile:
There is definite potential with this software; however after my 2 years with my company and using TW (employer usage 10+yrs) and making user friendly recommendations, there have been no changes incorporated.
Nachteile:
Real time not really real time! TW needs to get some app and software testing done by real users who will let them know where changes/updates need to be made. (if not already submitted as a ticket to TW support). With the new app loaded and tested by field guy, he says "it is so complicated now, why did they ever change it?" I personally have made so many suggestions and not only have they been obviously ignored, they removed the "remember me" feature for logging in! Seriously?! Why would the developers removed such a helpful user friendly feature... goes to show there are not actual users testing for recommendations! no-brainer. TAKE THE RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS FROM THE USERS AND THIS SOFTWARE COULD ACTUALLY BE HELPFUL INSTEAD OF BEING HEADACHE. Unfortunately, I do not foresee my employer changing to a different software application anytime soon although I will be researching alternatives!!!

Have been using TW for 5+ years. Great way to track our tools.
Vorteile:
Ease of use. Service is awesome. Always get a live, pleasant, helpful voice when I call. Great way to track everything from our vehicles and service to our tools and recalls.
Nachteile:
I'll get back to you on this as I haven't found a con yet. I also have not heard any complaints from our employees. It is a great product.

ToolWatch is an effective tool billing and tracking application. Support staff is helpful.
Kommentare: We have used ToolWatch SE and Enterprise for many years. When we switched from ToolWatch SE to Enterprise, we had data and process conversion concerns just like any application that would be converted. We found the support team at ToolWatch to be very helpful, courteous and patient. ToolWatch uses a concurrent licensing scheme which is an industry standard and does not limit the number of users. If a company wants to add more users, purchase more licenses. The application has the ability to track tools by hour, day, week and month. We use all billing schemes without issue, although our maintenance has increased due to the multiple rate sheets. ToolWatch is a tool billing and tracking application and it does that very well. ToolWatch is not a Warehouse Management application, but ToolWatch doesn't sell their product as a Warehouse Management application.

Kommentare: Overall my experience with toolwatch was great. My questions were answer very quickly and the toolwatch team made the onboarding process very easy.
Vorteile:
What I liked most about this software is the mobile app feature. It easy and simple to use.
Nachteile:
The desktop version of toolwatch can be a bit complex. Adding new items isn't as simple as it is on the mobile version.

Outstanding Company and overall Outstanding satisfaction.
Kommentare: I have used ToolWatch for over 10 years and have had outstanding overall results. As a customer, I have experienced excellent customer service on and software related issues. ToolWatch has always been committed to resolving and software issues that would come about. Recently we had some sync issues but ToolWatch support team handled the issues promptly and had us back in order in ample time. ToolWatch sales, support and service team is top in the industry and has helped our company manage our 25,000 bar coded tools and 2200 bar coded consumables. We serve 7 trades and 1300 field construction workers in multiple states with near perfect tracking and accountability. I would highly recommend Casi Portlock and ToolWatch Enterprise for your Tool management needs.
