JDA - Setting the standard in plannograming software

Avantages :

Business standard - Used by most retailers, so talking the same language is easy Easy to set up and assemble libraries to start working Easy to use even when other file formats (Nielsen Spaceman, etc) are being used by customers

Inconvénients :

Training is expensive, there is not much on the part of a manual or user documentation.

Functionable Planning

Commentaires : JDA overall is beneficial to have within any retail company. It can be the one source to house all details and information, and that can easily be generated through reports.

Avantages :

What I enjoyed most about implementing this software within my company was the capacity and details it featured. The software can house various amounts of detail within a planogram or floor plan. The shortcuts make it easy to navigate from store to store/product to product.

Inconvénients :

We are still improving the software, and expanding our knowledge within. I have learned that opening up multiple floorplans can cause the program to slow. I do wish I was able to drag fixtures/obstructions/planograms along a designated line like in CAD.

Good Product overall, outdated interface

Avantages :

I like the functionality of JDA’s product, and the fact that it’s mobile-friendly. Our associates are able to view their timecsrds and request time off from the mobile app.

Inconvénients :

Only con is the interface, and I’m nit-picking with this. The UI is very basic/simple, which isn’t always a bad thing, but doesn’t catch the eye in terms of aesthetics.

Company Boosts

Commentaires : This software is wonderful to use for store creations, planogram layouts, visual merchandising placements for brick and mortar locations. Easy to learn programming with step by step help and tutorials. Trusted software used by Tier 1 University's to help benefit undergraduates that are stepping into the wave of the future industries.

Avantages :

Bright colors, easy step by step tutorials. User friendly programming and seamless navigation features and shortcuts add ons.

Inconvénients :

Cost of product can take a good chunk out of pocket book for a startup company.

BTO used by Automotive Supplier

Avantages :

Using BTO: Flexibel in configuration, fast to implement in case business requirements are clear defined. Covering mostly all needs of Automotive Supplier industrie in case of Build to Order Processes and Sequencing

Some parts in configuration (by key user) seems to be somewhat complicate.
