WORKERBASE Reviews & Product Details

The platform is flexible enough to meet the demands of a research environment, and the team are highly skilled in developing specific functionality. Our use cases were very specific and required integration with an existing complex system, and the workerbase team were able to achieve this within the project timeframe. The cloud deployment meant that the requirement for support from our IT team was minimal, and updates and patches could be applied rapidly.

Their smart watches have enabled us to demonstrate new ways for operators to interact with eachother and the manufacturing execution system (MES). The assignment of roles and access was easy, and where we needed support from the workerbase team, it was readily available. The hardware itself has proven to be a poerful tool, minimising the requirement for operators to type information manually and using scanner instead. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

During our project, we reached the limits of what information could be shown to operators through the workerbase interface. Although the simplified view of tasks is good for day-to-day activities, our operators require more information to carry out more complex operations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I took part in a two-day training at the Workerbase office in Munich to get started with their SRM platform. Setting up the account and getting access was pretty quick — took less than an hour. I was in a group of 9 people, none of us had used SRM before, but we managed to get going pretty fast. After just a few hours, we had our first use case running. It wasn't super intuitive at first, but once someone showed us how it works, it clicked.

The training is clearly aimed at people without a programming background, which was great. With some support, we got a good handle on the basics. A week after the training, a few of us already started building actual use cases for our production teams, sometimes with help from more experienced users. Things like reading data from SQL servers still needed a bit of help, but overall it was doable.

The platform works with what they call "software bricks" — like blocks you can connect together to build stuff (e.g. instructions, text input, database stuff). You don’t need to code, which is great for people like me. The way the training was structured helped a lot, step by step, so we could try things out directly.

One thing I found tricky at the beginning was understanding where the platform could actually be useful. But our trainer, Lorenzo, was super helpful and knowledgeable. He answered all questions and gave us space to explore stuff on our own, which made the training more hands-on and fun.

The training definitely met our expectations. We wanted to learn how to use SRM to improve our processes — and we already built use cases shortly after. Some examples were milk run coordination, sending error messages to workers, or monitoring tool counters. The system also works well as a connector between different tools — we used it for magazine tracking and triggering transport orders automatically. In our team, SRM helps us get data from different sources more easily and use it in a practical way.

I don’t have any exact numbers, but the API stuff we learned in training saved us time and likely money, compared to paying for external development. Also, the tool monitoring helps with planning — it warns us early before tools wear out, which is really useful.

All in all, I’d definitely recommend the training. I'd give it a 10. It really helps you get started with the platform, even without coding skills. The instructors knew their stuff and were easy to talk to. After the sessions, I even had a good chat with Lorenzo about the company and their background — interesting stuff. The office vibe was also relaxed and friendly, which made it easier to learn.

Been using SRM for about two weeks now and looking forward to building more use cases with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The platform’s pretty easy to use overall, but setting up the first use cases wasn’t super intuitive at the beginning. Some things weren’t immediately clear, especially if you’re new to it, and it helped to have someone explain how it all fits together. Luckily, the support during the training was great and really helped us get past those first hurdles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about SRM Workerbase is the intuitive user interface, which allows us to work quickly and efficiently. The advantages of using Workerbase include flexible project management tools, real-time disruption capture, seamless team communication, and the ability to optimize workflows, all of which lead to a significant increase in productivity. Particularly noteworthy is the excellent customer support, which is quick and competent in assisting with questions and problems, as well as the good collaboration within the team, which is facilitated by the software's features.

A common disadvantage of such tools is the challenge of rapid user acceptance, which is often due to the need for employees to adapt to new systems and ways of working. However, this is less about SRM Workerbase itself and more a typical problem that can occur when introducing new software solutions in companies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The simplicity of the UI and their will to listen and cooperate with us, the costumers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have nothing to dislike so far. We get the best of service from these guys. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The thing I like the most about Workerbase is the ease of development of custom tailored applications specific for our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A small downside is that when we started using the applications more intensively, our production became dependable of the apps. So in the rare occation that the apps or connections between Workerbase and SAP are down, we needed to adapt very fast to not let our production be effected too much.

The dynamic and highly motivated team at Workerbase brings extensive expertise to realize innovative solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The system strictly requires a connection to the cloud. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The handling in the creation of apps. With just a few clicks, you have already created or quickly modified an app to suit your needs. Additionally, the support from Workerbase and the approach to implementing apps is very efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Special layouts must be developed using HTML. These could be included in the standard in the future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ease of implementing the system and building new applications Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The fact that the platform prefers to sell standard applications for extra licenses, while separete development does not cost extra license cost Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Workerbase is a very user-friendly and flexible software to optimize communication and response speed on the shop floor daily, as in our case. The implementation effort and speed (a few weeks) are manageable and can be rated very positively due to the customer proximity and support from Workerbase. The integration into the existing system landscape went smoothly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far, I have not been able to identify any negative points. All requirements have been implemented. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
