What differentiates TrakSYS from other similar products?

The solution is very customizable. Other vendors I've used have rigid in what they support and what they don't. Parsec either says "yes" or "let's figure out how to get to a yes."

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I like how forward-looking they are with the features that are coming out this year. They definitely keep up with market trends. As for existing functionality, we focus on Electronic Batch Records and reducing scrap/increasing quality. They have plenty of features in this area that stand apart from their competition.

What do you dislike most about this product?

One downside with the new subscription plan is that they're more expensive, which makes it harder to convince existing sites to upgrade to subscriptions.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Love the product. Keep on putting the customer first.

TrakSYS is the unique standard / open MES platform

Likeliness to Recommend

10 /10

What differentiates TrakSYS from other similar products?

TrakSYS is a modular manufacturing operations management platform. Unlike closed and rigid systems, it stands out for its open architecture, low-code platform and native integration with the main industrial protocols. This allows for agile, scalable and cost-effective deployments.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

TrakSYS has truly enabled the construction of modular solutions that meet the specific requirements of each customer or manufacturing business model. We have used TrakSYS to support demands in a variety of industries from cosmetics, beverages and food to metals and mining. With its multi-site architecture capabilities, we have applications that manage more than 45 sites from a single central cloud instance.

What do you dislike most about this product?

TrakSYS is true to its value proposition, being a standard platform for the development of MES solutions and allowing the management of the entire life cycle of an MES implementation. In some implementations its cost can be quite high for some customers.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

TrakSYS is certainly the right choice for those who want an MES solution adapted to their reality and culture. Its constant modernization based on a single platform enables a lower TCO and a durable life cycle.
