"The game-changer that transformed my career!"
What do you like best about Redzone?

Productivity and compliance have completely transformed how I manage the floor. With productivity tools, I can communicate more effectively, track data effortlessly, and implement positive changes that truly improve production. These tools have enabled me to monitor performance in real time, identify trends, and make informed decisions that drive efficiency and quality. I can now stay engaged with every line running, even when I’m not physically present, ensuring consistent support and oversight. This has streamlined our processes and made it easier to adopt and sustain meaningful improvements on the floor.

A key part of my success has been my coach, Rob. His patience, dedication, and drive to help me reach my full potential have been invaluable. When he’s here at CMC, he’s fun to be around and inspires me to stay on top of my huddles. There’s truly no one like him. His energy is unmatched, and his accent is the best! Rob consistently provides insightful advice, encourages innovative thinking, and goes above and beyond to ensure both my growth and the success of CMC. His guidance has made a lasting impact not only on me but on how we approach productivity and continuous improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redzone?

It's called Redzone but we want green bars and stars, not red bars.

I also wish the high fives were bigger on the TV. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Biggest improvement to factory in the last 10 years"
What do you like best about Redzone?

Redzone is the perfect suite of tools to empower the front line workers and create a connected workforce. The ease of use and intuitiveness of the application make adoption quick and easy. The coaching provided by the Redzone team was not only centered around how to use the application but also how to rightsize the use to fit your factory. Would highly recommend! It has been everything promised and more! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redzone?

Lack of Additional out of the box reporting and ability to categorize losses and analyze in app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great product and Ease of Implementation"
What do you like best about Redzone?

The Frequency of Use, Ease of use, continuos improvements, the number of features for data collection, Ease of Implementation, Ease of Integration, and great Customer Support. Being able to have production and maintenance use the same software for tracking and loss mitigation! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redzone?

Not having an all button for all the options. Not having these KPIs for reports or displayed on the production/maintenance screen, Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF), Mean Time to Repair (MTTR), Planned Maintenance Percentage, and Maintenance Cost as a Percentage of Asset Value.

"Amazing ability to improve communication throughout large manufacturing plants"
What do you like best about Redzone?

Redzone has tremendously improved communication throughout our production process. Allowing for seamless communication within multiple departments and individual associates. The visibility it has brought to life for improved processes is a game changer! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redzone?

I would like to see windows based access for Redzone. The functionality of Redzone on an iPad is great for on the go but can be frustrating when dealing with any typical daily work that occurs on windows based platforms Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Redzone was a good decision for our company!"
What do you like best about Redzone?

As a whole, it is awesome to be able to see real time data from the production floor from your phone wherever you may be. I use redzone everyday to help ensure checks are ebing properly completed for each production run. In Redzone, I specifically love the compliance and learning modules.

-The compliance module helped to digitize all of our forms and made it easier to review. We also stopped wasting time trying to track down forms that may have been lost.

-For learning, the skills matrix makes it very easy to determine who is qualified or trained on a specific job within the plant and makes it easy to see when you need it in a hurry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redzone?

Some downsides we have ran into specifically in our plant;

-Skill matrix not sorting by last name and instead sorts by first name and number of skills they are assigned to. It would also be more more convienent to be able to assign a person to a department instead of having to group them in filters.

-We struggled with deciding what triggers to use when scheduling checks in the compliance module as we couldn't find one thing that would 100% work for us so we needed to decide on the best option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Redzone?

The ability to provide real-time visibility into our manufacturing operations. This enables us to quickly identify and address issues on the shop floor, leading to improved efficiency, reduced downtime, and higher product quality. By offering actionable insights through real-time data, QAD Redzone helps our Production team to make informed decisions promptly, ultimately enhancing overall operational performance. The way we were coached to focus on Vital Fews and resolve those first was very insightful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redzone?

Customization Limitations: Our engineering team felt that the platform may have limitations in customization to perfectly fit our unique manufacturing processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"We went paperless!!"
What do you like best about Redzone?

QAD RedZone has enabled our quality department to go paperless. The real-time tracking helps us catch issues before they become bigger problems, and it’s easy for the whole team to use. It keeps everything organized, improves efficiency, and helps us maintain high-quality standards. Plus, it’s great for keeping everyone on the same page and finding ways to improve.

We also had great support from our Operational Compliance Co Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redzone?

The hardest part about using QAD RedZone is all the work it takes to set up in the beginning. There’s a lot of data to input and getting everything customized to fit our process takes time. It can feel a bit overwhelming at first, especially when training the team and making sure everyone is on the same page. Once it’s up and running, it’s helpful, but that initial setup can be a real challenge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent software and Excellent people"
What do you like best about Redzone?

Redzone is a great data collection and communication tool that can be used to highlight areas for improvement in production processes in order to increase productivity overall. It enables employees to communicate issues to the entire plant and create actions which can be used for employee accountability. I like the built in Kaizen, where employees can work together to fishbone ideas and work towards a common goal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redzone?

It can be difficult to learn for older people who are not as technologically advanced, or don't have any sort of social media. It needs to have a search function within forums/chats to make it easier to recall information within a conversation so you're not scrolling through a ton of text trying to find something.

There is no module that stops being used Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
