What do you like best about Ekos?

Cloud based batch data tracing, inventory management/accounting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ekos?

The current software really struggles with merging/blending batches. The processing time is beyond slow and bogs down the whole system for the rest of our team trying to use Ekos at the same time. Some defaults in the new software are frustrating, for example; starting off a new batch as brite instead of green. This can create issues as you add more turns and try to move batches around the brewery with in the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Necessary for a growing brewery, but clunky, time-consuming and requires a LOT of data input"
2/5
What do you like best about Ekos?

The drag-and-drop features of the facility view work pretty good. Finding inventory values for different locations is pretty easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ekos?

VERY click-heavy, slow and inconsistent site performance, LOTS of data input with very little insight garnered that is useful. Production calendar and any projection tools are useless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Ekos?

App based platforms are always a convenient way to share and access information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ekos?

It can be slow to update and load data. The mobile app can be a little glitchy with how data and fields are displayed. Reports and managing information is not extremely flexible or intuitive -- not as flexible as a regular spreadsheet, for example. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great system, but far too slow"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Ekos?

The integration for brewery production-specific needs is wonderful. Floor plan and calendar views are infinitely more usable than competitors' products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ekos?

The most useful improvement by a huge margin would be faster response in the user interface. Waiting for pages to load costs us an enormous amount of productivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ekos?

One of the larger concerns I have with the software is the additions of other add on services. I was hoping that they would incoude this in the same price Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
