  ### 2. SO99+ next gen SCP

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Stathis N. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 08, 2023

**What do you like best about Service Optimizer 99+?**

A number of things:

Pioneer in Probabilistic Forecasting and true MEIO.

Core system philosophy: to optimize and automate planning, you need a supply chain digital twin which is both DETAILED and STOCHASTIC.
Detailed means working bottom-up, stating at SKU-location level and avoiding gross calculations (for example at Product Family, ABC, geography, or other aggregate level) and then using a rule of thumb to turn this into an actionable plan. 
Stochastic means to incorporate the volatile nature of the physical supply chain that represents  (delays, variability, etc), for each different SKU-route and thus producing a resilient plan.

Strong engine solving for millions of SKU-Locations, used daily, calulating forecasts and replenishment plans.

Traditionally, very good user interface: Demand, Inventory and Supply information in one place, easily accessible to users, with many clever solutions and consistent workflows.

Powerful reporting used every day by most users: Almost instant view of Demand and Supply plans in different ways: Sales (quantities), Financial (costs/revenues), Logistics (pallets, cubic meters, etc.) at different product/market levels and time horizons. 

Practical application of AI/MLE for solving real problems (New product introduction, Promos).

Relatively simple integration, using data available in most ERPs.

The system support is part of the SaaS and further Customer  support is facilated through standard portal, as well as tailored to the needs of each customer by TG or local VARs.

Fast implementations and ROI: out of the box for most of the SCP environments; quick parametrization; easy customizations (if needed); results in a few months.

Future proof investment: ToolsGroup seems to continue expand the scope and depth of the solution. Latest example is Price Optimization.

**What do you dislike about Service Optimizer 99+?**

Not much. New web interface requires work.

**What problems is Service Optimizer 99+ solving and how is that benefiting you?**

What am I likely to sell and by which confidence?
What should I keep in stock or not and by how much?
Is my current stock healthy?
How should I best plan these alternative SKU?
What should I purchase from my suppliers?
What should I produce in my factory, respecting capacity constraints?
What should I transfer to my stores?
What is the cost of my future transportation?
What is the forecasted cost of my purchasing per month, over the next 6 months?
Shall I make a strategic resourcing modificaiton in my distrunution network?
What if I consolidate these warehouses into one?

**Official Response from Mark Gallant:**

> Thanks so much for the great review and the long term partnership we have shared. 

  ### 3. Easy to use, customizable and flexible tool for Supply Chain Planning teams

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

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

**Reviewed Date:** October 16, 2023

**What do you like best about Service Optimizer 99+?**

It is a end-to-end solution but easy to implement even complect requirement through highly customization feature

**What do you dislike about Service Optimizer 99+?**

Automated  selection of some parameters are works well but not trasparent.  For example parameters like forecast aggregation criterion or current trend projection can be selected by users manually or can be assigned by SO99 itself automatically. But when automatical assigment selected users can not see which option is used by SO99+ automatically.

**What problems is Service Optimizer 99+ solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Instead of focusing forecast accuracy in intermittent and longtail cases; SO99+ converts the probabilistic forecast to stock levels by harmonizing supply parameters, various constraints and desired service levels at specified groups. Specifically industies like after sales spare part the intermittent, volatile, lumpy demand can be converted to usable stock levels instead of simple quantities.

**Official Response from Mark Gallant:**

> Good day Mehmet and thank you for the great review.  

Your observation is correct and we've heard that from our customers.  As such, 'explainability' is the focus of our next upcoming releases.  I would also suggest that if you haven't already, feel free to add this to our ideas portal !

  ### 4. Poweful, flexible planning

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Simon O. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 08, 2023

**What do you like best about Service Optimizer 99+?**

Service Optimizer 99+ has incredibly powerful engines with great flexibility. The results that the system generates pay themselves off many times over and with relative ease the system can be integrated and operational to solve complex problems.

The front-end interface is out of date and undermines the power of the engines.  It does not look like a system that is capable of generating the results it is capable of which is off-putting to some users.

**What problems is Service Optimizer 99+ solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Reducing inventory and stock-outs simultaneously to smooth the planning process and impress customers.

**Official Response from Mark Gallant:**

In the end it delivers business value every day for our clients. That is the number one reason why we and our clients are so satisfied with SO99+.

  ### 39. Demand & Inventory Planning with a good balance of configurable automation with manual controls

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jim S. | Consultant and Project Leader, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 10, 2021

**What do you like best about Service Optimizer 99+?**

1) SO99 takes your ERP demand, inventory, open POs, and master data and loads into a model which generates a forecast, stocking targets, and recommended POs.  So it takes a lot of data and allows users to manage the model and outputs at whatever level of aggregation they want.  2) Configurations, settings, and overrides can easily be done at any level of aggregation.  This streamlines the work of the demand and supply planners, allowing them to focus on exceptions and process improvement. 3) The stock optimization algorythm takes many inputs/variables into account -- creating a truly optimal solution for service and cost. 4) Data elements and variables can be maintained in your ERP or in SO99 (flexible control). 5) Great support team at ToolsGroup.

**What do you dislike about Service Optimizer 99+?**

1) While the internal reporting tool is really good, the data is somewhat siloed in the database.  This makes it difficult to look at certain kinds of data together.  For example looking at stock targets, proposals, historical demand and the forecast in the same view is not possible. (Or would require customization).  2) There are also a couple screens where the filtering is very limited, making it difficult to work on particular slices of business. 3) TG generally discourages users from creating and editing batch jobs since they are complicated.  The downside of this is that you will need their help to make changes to your batch processes to align with changing business conditions/needs.

**What problems is Service Optimizer 99+ solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Problems:  Poor forecast accuracy, manual and simplistic inventory management processes, low in-stocks.

Benefits:  A significant improvement in forecast accuracy, a direct linkage from forecast to supply plan, automated and sophisticated inventory management processes, improving in-stocks, better control over service, and a substantially reduced workload for the team.

  ### 40. Excellent Tool for Planning, Managing, and Optimizing Inventory

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Phil B. | Senior Inventory Analyst, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 28, 2021

**What do you like best about Service Optimizer 99+?**

The Demand module is particularly helpful in managing the forecast across different regions.  Ends the manual and haphazard process of managing forecasts in excel.

**What do you dislike about Service Optimizer 99+?**

Well-rounded knowledge of your own business is crucial for a successful implementation.  As with most sophisticated pieces of software, once the tool is set up it can be difficult or time-consuming to make adjustments.

**What problems is Service Optimizer 99+ solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are solving inventory imbalances between our warehouses, aligning supply with demand, are able to make adjustments to our purchasing strategies on the fly to react to a challenging material market, and reducing our inventory levels.

  ### 41. SO99 for Demand Planning

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Building Materials | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 04, 2021

**What do you like best about Service Optimizer 99+?**

**What do you dislike about Service Optimizer 99+?**

Errors can be difficult to trouble shoot and require extensive "data mining"

**Recommendations to others considering Service Optimizer 99+:**

Ensure Data Integrity is reviewed and improved prior to implementation.  Include Item Master and Product Managers in core teams to ensure future processes will include coordination as items are changed/updated/created.

**What problems is Service Optimizer 99+ solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Forecast accuracy has improved, which has helped optimize Inventory projections.  Longer term Forecasting horizon has allowed us to provide additional forecast information to Supply Chain members.   Forecasting is becoming more scientific and based on data than the past.

  ### 42. SO99+ drives best in class forecast accuracy

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Automotive | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 18, 2021

**What do you like best about Service Optimizer 99+?**

SO99+ can deliver excellent forecast accuracy and inventory optimization if appropriately implemented and managed. The tool allows for the creation of different item and customer groupings that work together with their algorithms to deliver statistical forecasts that we can leverage as a baseline and input business knowledge on top of to develop commercialized forecasts. The inventory optimization software allows for service-level driven inventory management which is highly effective when supply is not constrained.

**What do you dislike about Service Optimizer 99+?**

The usability of the user interface can be somewhat clunky at times. No visibility to how the algorthims work to come up with demand plns. While forecast accuracy remains solid, and we have had to manage that outside of the system in our implementation. We also have had to create and manage forecast accuracy outside of the system due to our implementation, which relies on additional forecast management software (BOARD).

**What problems is Service Optimizer 99+ solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Improved forecast accuracy and inventory throughput. Good handling of forecasting a vast customer base and long-tail inventory.
