Epicor CPQ Reviews & Product Details

I like the intellisense feature which aids in the programming. The navigation between the screens and various event sections is fast and easy. The software is relatively simple and clean which makes it robust. Very few crashes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1) When creating functions in advanced code. KBMAX does not recognize the added code in other events such as "On End" or "On Child Value Change" or even in the action code until you save, close, and re open KBMAX. Then the advanced code is recognized.

2)Sometimes the intellisense does not open up and sometimes it does

3)Occasionally the configuration file will be closed with an error and there is a chance the config file will be unable to be reopened. The only way to save the file and access it would be to hit control, alt, shift, and z. Even then the editing is not very self explanatory.

4)Do not have any tutorials or documentation on any of this software. For example the cntl, alt, shift z thing was not told to us until months after we initially had the problem. The communication can be better from the troubleshooting standpoint. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Once you have the product designed and set up in KB it takes very little time to clean up the SolidWorks drawings for production. Our company also has KB set up to generate a BOM linked to our ERP system. You can run multiple builds. Start one and while you wait for it to build, go back and configure another.

(Minor issue - more of a personal annoyance) KB uses Silverlight which does not allow cutting and pasting with a mouse click. CTRL C & V still work. The build times can be very long depending on the complexity of the design. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Gives you options to create your own graphics projects without going for help to the Graphics department Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Slow compare to other application, sometime waiting for 2-3 minutes to get a drawing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

long loading times issue this also can be due to the high design requirements and checks involved Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cloud based, flexible, and innovative solution which is easy to use and backed up by a talented team at KBMax. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not much to dislike. Wish building a configurator did not require any technical skills so that business could build them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The customer service is the best I have ever received in working with a third party design company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would enjoy more face to face meetings throughout the year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

KBMax allows us to interface with customers and salespeople where they would usually be unable to communicate in the same medium that the drafters use. They can create their assemblies and models through KBMax and send them along to us, the designers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There were incompatibility issues when upgrading versions of SolidWorks. This may have been in our way of referencing points in KBMax, but still required us to divert resources to reach a solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The software has so many abilities to connect to different packages, from various data tables to excel, EPDM, solidworks, AS400 ... You can program about anything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is not much to dislike, our experience has proven anything we did not like, they worked out for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The user interface is very easy to use, effective for making any design I need. Easy to adjust and build. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The load time is slow, building one small assembly can take anywhere from 5 min. to a few hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The fact that I can get renderings for my customer right away instead of waiting 3 days to obtain from the layout department. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The time it takes to generate once completed. Sometimes I can wait up to 20 minutes for the completion file. Just impatient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
