Easy, Fast and most of the things are automated, not so many manual inputs. You can create scenarios, cost for different VPE locations, which is very good feature and works like a charm. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Speed of the application is not so fast. sometime there is a lag. Deep costing is slow and sometime becomes un-responsive for larger assemblies. They promised to resolve this on newer version, which is planned to be live in Sep 2022. Hoping to see this working better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been implementing the program for about two years and what I like the most is that it allows to involve the stakeholders in the final product from the beginning of the negotiations, it helps to recognize the best costs which will benefit the interested party in the negotiation.

The requirement of a good internet service to be able to perform the simulation, the interface seems to me a bit basic, include other process configuration options to provide more logic to perform the manufacturing, system updates should be easier to integrate.

aPriori is a great tool that supports all stakeholders of any product lifecycle in the Design Development of Product Maintenance.

It is an excellent tool in the hands of a Designer to understand the impact of design on Cost and identify Design Cost Issues and Design rule violations early into the design phase. It is also helping to understand the effect of alternate designs and processes.

It is an essential tool in the hands of a cost engineer to validate the impact of various parameters such as manufacturing locations, alternate processes, and effects of tolerances.

It is an excellent tool for purchasing to discuss detailed cost breakdowns with suppliers and better negotiate on those parameters.

Finally, an excellent tool for Project Managers to understand and track the project progress and alignment with cost targets using Cost Insight Reporting as a Business Intelligence tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
