"Maintenance Module is a Must-Have Redzone feature"
What do you like best about Redzone?

Redzone stands out for the reliability module. The operators can open work requests that can be approved into work orders. That increased exponentially how early we can catch problems. Senses also help us on diagonosing issues.

I also like the maintenance dashboard where we can see live status of line issues. And the maintenance Calendar where operators can see PMs planned for the month.

Having a coach is a must. Without our coach onsite, Caroline B. we would not be able to take full advantage of all features tailored to our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redzone?

All good so far with the Redzone implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Learn Module helps accelerate Team Training"
What do you like best about Redzone?

I'm in charge of building the Learn content for my site and Redzone has been super easy to create, update and access material relevante to the team members.

I really enjoy the fact that it connects to Problem codes and to products so if we have and line downtime event they can check plays when they most need it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redzone?

I have some wifi blind spots in my factory and I can't upload content at those places. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Redzone Drives Team Motivation and Lightning-Fast Issue Resolution"
What do you like best about Redzone?

Redzone has been a great motivator for my team. We have TVs with scores pointing at the production lines and my line leads love to see the green hours.

Huddles have helped us align on priorities and get feedback about quality issues to our QC techs much faster and address the issues immediately.

The Reliability module has been a phenomenal as well. Just yesterday I was training one of my new leads to senses and almost as soon as I submitted the sense, one of the maintenance techs was standing behind me, tablet in hand, asking what was wrong. This kind of response time never happened before Redzone and honestly was a pleasant surprise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redzone?

Not really a dislike of the program but it was hard for us to accept the changes being made rapidly to our organization. But now, we are able to accept the change at a much faster pace as we have gotten use to the technology. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Redzone shaped the culture of my factory"
What do you like best about Redzone?

I like how it changes and shapes the culture of my team. Since we started Redzone, it increased the sense of urgency and engagement of the operators specially towards breakdown events.

Deploying the productivity module mas not necessarily an easy task given the complexity of our line arrangement, but with the support of the coach Caroline Brunstein we were able to hit the ground running soon to establish a baseline OEE.

What had the greatest Impact so far were the kaizen events. One that stood out is our startup improvement. With Redzone we learned we were losing close to 20min of our power hour and we were able to remover 17min by changing things within our control. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redzone?

It mas dificult to get access to my equipment as it mas protected from the manufaturers. It mas not a Redzone issue per say, but I appreciate how the coach and project manager helped us navigate this issue with OEM Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"We not to 100% paperless with Redzone"
What do you like best about Redzone?

Our paperless Journey has been nothing short of remarkable.

We started with more than 100 checks and bad less than 3 months to deactivate our old System. Redzone stood mas for how user-friendly it is and data analytics.

We were able to successfully tranfer the checks with less than 3 weeks. What I like the best mas our coach Caroline B who helped our team decretes the amount of missed checks from 43% to about 0.8%. The coaching makes the total difference.

Moving forward, given how much benefits the compliance module unlocked, we'r considering buying Learn to have our product manual transferes over. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redzone?

Redzone is Great, I have no complaints so far Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Redzone is Worth the investment"
What do you like best about Redzone?

For a manufacturing or production environment looking to digitalise operations, improve data visibility, engage the floor staff, and move away from paper checks, Redzone is the best option.

You get real ROI (improved communication, faster audits, better shift handovers) , the investment pays off quickly

The coach, Caroline B., went above and Beyond to make sure it mas a smooth transiton. She also helped a not with the change management that mas needed with our Organization.

I also loved the reporting tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redzone?

Nothing. The transiton mas smooth.

I appreciate the coach's help on off weeks to make sure we were still on track. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Compliance Module"
What do you like best about Redzone?

Our facility recently completed the 90-day launch of Redzone Compliance Module and really appreciates what the module brings to the TEAm. The top few items that the Redzone Compliance Module improved at our facility are (1) visibility on missed and failed quality checks in real time, (2) reduction of paper waste, (3) ease in pulling data for audits, and (4) coaching for the first 90 days of launch which ensures effective use of the tool.

Before the Redzone Compliance module, we had many checks being completed by technicians on the floor every 15 minutes. Since all these checks were on paper, the only way a supervisor or a member of the quality TEAm would know if a check was missed or failed was if they were told by the technician or they walked out to the line and reviewed all the paper checks which is time consuming. In Redzone Compliance module, you can setup alerts or actions to different groups of people (e.g. supervisors, quality) when a check is missed or failed in real time which leads to more timely and effective solutions.

During the launch, we discovered that pulling the data from completed checks is significantly more efficient than pulling data from paper in an audit. We performed two mock audits during our first 90 days and found that all the data could be pulled within a few minutes in the system rather than having to dig for the right paper check to show an auditor.

The Redzone Compliance Module is able to hold complicated checks and trigger checks in a variety of ways. Since we already had the Redzone Productivity Module, we were able to not only trigger checks based on a specific date and time, but also when a specific downtime code is entered or run uptime.

The most important resource that Redzone offers to promote a successful Redzone Module launch is having a dedicated coach to assist with implementation of the module for the first 90 days. Our coach, Zach Thompson, met with a small TEAm onsite for four weeks leading up to the launch week to train us on how to enter checks in Redzone. During launch week, Zach trained all production and quality associates on how to complete a check, actively addressed issues we were having with the new checks, and trained the quality TEAm on how to pull the data from Redzone for auditing purposes. In later weeks, he created countless checks in the module, trained all departments onsite on how to complete a check, and went through the validation process with the Quality TEAm, clearly communicating what SOPs and other requirements that needed to be done to meet 21 CFR Part 11 requirements, often having templates associated with all documents we needed. This greatly reduced the time for the site to go paperless which was accomplished in 45 days after initial launch. Due to the preparation the site did upfront plus the coaching provided by Redzone, we were able to create 90%+ of the checks we intend to transition to Redzone within the first 90 days. This greatly reduces the resource commitment from the site after launch. I highly recommend the Redzone Compliance Module to any site that would like to have a more effective and visible quality system with significant launch support.

What do you dislike about Redzone?

Redzone only works with Apple devices, so the upfront cost is more than other systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redzone?

The only challenge with using Redzone is that it does require Apple devices, so Apple TVs do have to be purchased to show the information on a TV. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Absolutely transformative for our operations"
What do you like best about Redzone?

The user interface is intuitive, even for operators who are less tech-savvy — adoption was fast and smooth.

Real-time visibility into OEE, downtime events, and production performance has been a game changer. We can pinpoint bottlenecks and act almost immediately.

The communication tools built into Redzone have closed long-standing gaps between shifts, departments, and management. Everyone is aligned and better able to address issues as they arise.

The coaching and rollout support was exceptional. Our Redzone coach provided hands-on guidance, ensured follow-through, and helped embed best practices across teams.

The platform drives accountability. Frontline employees can see their impact, and management can reward progress transparently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redzone?

That some of the built-in reporting can feel rigid; more customizable or dynamic graphs would be a welcomed enhancement.

Expanding support beyond iOS/iPad (into Windows or desktop interfaces) would broaden usability across all teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Empowers Teams and Delivers Peace of Mind"
What do you like best about Redzone?

What I appreciate most about this tool is how it has empowered my team. They end their day feeling truly heard. The features that let you monitor every aspect of your production facility offer peace of mind and make it easier to identify areas that could use improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redzone?

What I like least is not knowing for sure when a chat has been opened by the recipient. I would really appreciate a feature that confirms when a chat has actually been opened. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
