**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Pranav K. | Business Consultant, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 18, 2024

**What do you like best about Jiga?**

Jiga is an online portal for sourcing all your machining parts and requirements from trusted manufacturers and suppliers. You can compare the quoted prices received and make informed decisions. You can easily register on the portal easily implement and start requesting Quotations hassle-free.

The service offered by Jiga is pretty simple and involves less complexity. The downside may occur in terms of payments, timelines, or some defects in the delivered components.

**What problems is Jiga solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The demand for specialized industrial parts has increased the need for faster production. This has increased the need for sourcing good quality custom parts required in manufacturing like CNC machining, metal sheet bending, 3D printing, molding, etc. Jiga helps in sending out Quotations in the form of CAD files, PDF drawings, or BOM spreadsheets. The portal accepts various file formats to upload. You can also have a real-time chat with interested suppliers. Jiga helps throughout the cycle from sending out quotations to payment and delivery of parts.

  ### 2. You design they build

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Akshat S. | Software Developer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 17, 2024

**What do you like best about Jiga?**

It helps sourcing the custom parts that we need for our R&D or the service. They are not the middle man that cuts the margins instead they provide the supply chain between the bridges. I am impressed by the support and the quality of the parts as well.

**What do you dislike about Jiga?**

I somwhat see the pricing a bit high for my personal business but if you think about the amount of work it reduces for you I think it is pretty reasonable.

**What problems is Jiga solving and how is that benefiting you?**

When you arre an engineer and you focus more on the design part of the product, you don't want to wast most of your time dealing with the supplier and the following the mail thread. jiga provides all of that for us in one place. It is the best place that provides the quality of support, quality of the products and all of that in a considerable amount of speed.

  ### 3. Purchasing communication, managed.

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Tony K. | Fractional CCO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 15, 2023

**What do you like best about Jiga?**

Jiga is a fantastic platform for managing purchasing communication. As an engineer, I really don't want to spend my time chasing email threads and maintaining spreadsheets of quotes. Jiga keeps all of this information in one place and streamlines the entire RFQ process.

**What do you dislike about Jiga?**

As with any purchasing system, the critical part is relationships. Each vendor on Jiga is a new relationship to manage, so onboarding and making my Jiga my go-to for purchasing will be a process. However, the ease of communication makes this process move much faster than a conventional email/spreadsheet system.

**What problems is Jiga solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Jiga helps me identify competitive sources for part production. Managing an RFQ submission through Jiga takes way less time and mental bandwidth because all of the communication and pricing is contained in one place.

Some times their interface is a little glitchy but their customer support is incredible and fixes all my issues. No real down side to be honest.

They connect me with incredible machinists around the world and provide me parts I could not make it in the house.

Jiga is a good source for new suppliers and streamlines the process of quoting and procuring manufactured items. The reliability associated with procuring through their platform is nice too.
