"Propel made our team feel more connected and in sync than ever before"
4/5
What do you like best about Propel?

Automation features within Propel's system together with integrated processes create substantial improvements to our business operations. Our team directs its efforts toward strategic work because automated repetitive tasks take over their responsibilities. The system automatically creates client reports which it distributes according to scheduled timelines thus freeing up substantial weekly hours. The system allows us to efficiently merge client information between our CRM and email marketing functions for complete visibility into our customer base. The system enables users to track real-time information through adjustable dashboards for making choices that hinge on data. Our team quickly adapted to the user interface because it maintains a simple design that makes operations straightforward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Propel?

The software setup process requires dedication because automation tools are new to many users. The software requires some trial and error to master all its capabilities. Advanced features in the software require substantial learning efforts which might benefit from assistance during setup. Data processing delays within the software occur infrequently although they have sometimes caused brief interruptions. The minor glitches in the software are easy to handle because the overall value of the program remains strong. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The Power of Propel PLM"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Propel?

Our organization selected Propel in 2021 to be our PLM provider. I was a skeptic to begin with, but now I am a true fan of the Power of Propel. Along with management support, we have been able to grow our user adoption and increase efficiency of our design/development process, get products to market faster, and live the dream of digital transformation. The platform is intuitive and the integration with our ERP has changed the game. Our dedicated customer success manager is a game changer - without this support I may not have the same opinions on the platform. I use the PLM every day and am not leading all sustaining and implementation of new modules. It's an amazing opportunity to really make an impact in the organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Propel?

We have noticed that making design changes to the platform once launched involved careful consideration of how historical records or pages will be impacted. We had to learn the hard way but were able to course correct with our CSM's guidance. We always keep this in mind when creating new modules, it's best to take the time to collect all user needs and thoroughly test them through validation protocols.

"We’ve been impressed with the level of customization that Propel has to offer!"
5/5
What do you like best about Propel?

Reveal Lasers LLC is an aesthetic laser start-up company that needed an eQMS solution to document and manage business processes. Since we were a startup company, we had the advantage of building (customizing) Propel from the foundation up with minimal existing data to import. On 03/01/2024, we launched Propel and have identified two significant outcomes.

1. Detailed customization

We’ve been impressed with the level of customization that Propel has offered. Many available solutions on the market are limited to preconfigured out-of-the box parameters but Propel has shattered this mold. Through available customizations our QMS has aligned nicely with Propel, verses bending our QMS to fit a solution when it clearly doesn’t. This led to Reveal’s first significant outcome. Propel was launched under budget, in a timely fashion, with customized usability.

2. Process Flows

Propel has allowed Reveal Lasers to develop process flows to meet our needs and once developed we have been able to improve those flows on the fly. The efficiency has been a tremendous asset to the Team members and we have an increase in our daily activities and reviews during many of the operations meetings.

What do you dislike about Propel?

When making changes to the Quality or Items Objects the activity isn't complete until several screens are updated. These additional steps can become cumbersome for what is sometimes a very simple update.

For example: (New page layout field)

1. Create the field.

2. Add it to a page layout.

3. Add to a field set (if applicable).

4. Add it to the Propel Setup.

a) Log out of Propel first and back in for the new field to become available to add. This is not ideal when several screens are open with work spaces.

5. Add it to the Users permission sets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Propel is user-friendly and easy to use, with changes requiring minimal configuration effort"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Propel?

I found that Propel is user-friendly and easy to use. If any changes are required, they can be implemented easily with minimal configuration effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Propel?

To support efficient validation and compliance, Propel should provide SDLC documentation. As an end-user company, leveraging these documents would reduce redundant effort, streamline validation activities and enable faster implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
