Guidewheel has been an amazing asset to our company, I am able to see real live feed of all the machines running or not running in our plant no matter where I am. I love the fact that I can also assign our maintenance team work assignments through messages directly through Guidewheel. I can now track what work has been done on what machine and how long the downtime was. Guidewheel has also helped our company out by being able to troubleshoot our machines more efficently by finding trends of problems that may be reoccuring and to find the source of why the same problem is happening. I can do this by looking at past work assignments that have been tagged in the Guidewheel Software. I am thrilled that all of our work assignments can now be tracked easily through the software instead of having to much of a paper trail. In our company we have been able to also intergrate safety alerts as well as quality checks and inspections. I love the fact that we have multiple meetings together as well as Guidewheel is really willing to listen to what our company needs are and to find a way to integrate it into the system for us! Overall great service! We have a great connection with the Guidewheel team as well as communication which is our Company is number #1! Highly recommend!!!

Pros

Live feed of all the machines that are either running or shutdown. Data collection is amazing helping us in tracking productivity. The messaging feature as well as being able to assign work assignments as well as downtime reasoning and easier troubleshooting on our machines.

Cons

At this point working with Guidewheel for almost two years now I have no complaints. Everything that we ask of Guidewheel that might benefit the company Guidewheel always come prepared and works hard at making it happen.

Guidewheel is a powerful tool for enhancing factory operations, providing valuable insights and helping to achieve greater efficiency and sustainability.

Pros

OEE calculation and real time energy monitoring capability

Cons

one potential drawback could be the initial setup and integration. Implementing a new system often requires time and resources to ensure it integrates smoothly with existing machinery and processes. This can be a bit challenging, especially for factories with older equipment or less technical expertise.

It has significantly improved our daily operations, with frequent use by our internal customers. The software helps us track the history of issues, production orders, uptime, energy consumption, and Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE). Additionally, the customer support provided is excellent.

Pros

Guidewheel helps identifying the most significant issues in a machine or group of machines, allowing us to focus the attention to address the root cause of the issues.

The item description should be included in the orders. This prevents confusion among users. Additionally, the graphic reports do not display graph values once printed or exported.
