Managers can coordinate work across staff and work centres, monitor job status and costs, and use reports to review labor, capacity, and profitability. Shop-floor displays and tablets give workers access to job details and production targets at the point of work. Empower also connects with accounting, payroll, CAD and costing, CRM, and inventory products, including Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks, Cabinet Vision, and Microvellum. It is aimed at made-to-order workshops such as joinery, engineering, sheet-metal, and composite manufacturing businesses, particularly in New Zealand and Australia.	ProShop: About ProShop is a paperless and web based shop management, ERP, MES and QMS system for manufacturing companies in regulated industries.

	ProShop: Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros Unlike many ERP software solutions I have worked with in The Precision Machining field, ProShop has a distinct functionality to capture intrinsic data, with little effort, from the shop floor. Hands down, there is no more important function to your businesses success. Complete continuity across our business platform. Implementation is smooth and aggressive. Integrated QMS that most competitors do not have. Very user friendly! Company works with you and makes sure you have full understanding of how to use the system before turning over full access. Company takes you through a hands on training course and is always open to questions and suggestions. We like the fact that everything is traceable all of our actions,purchasing and requirements are documented and traceable. Nothing gets missed. All of the information for every job is recorded and easily recalled by any and all who need it. I really like most everything. The IT burden, since the software is browser based, is literally zero to install . You have a computer? You can access proshop from it. It is easy to use from single board computers--a real IT savings. The scope of the software is incredible. It covers all of your quality system bases for you. You know the niggling little things that ISO and AS demand but are really hard to keep up with for a small company? Things like reapproval of documents? Proshop handles those for you, making compliance easy and impossible to forget. Licensing is by the user and not by the station, so I can install as many access points as I want without paying any extra money. That means nobody lining up at the one terminal on the floor that you paid for to enter their data. Cons It takes a great deal of windows hot keys to be proficient. Nothing that we have found to this point, we are quite impressed with the product. Can be a little overwhelming at first when you start looking around in it but that passes after the initial training. The dispensing of tooling to a job could use some more flexibility. Tooling inventory management is set up for repeat production environment The benefits of the browser interface comes with some drawbacks. Mostly cosmetic formatting issues. Sometimes data is presented in a text format that would be a little nicer if it was graphical as well. Not much really; you can really tell that this software was directed and developed by people who were on the floor pushing buttons and dealing with the administrative side at the same time. It takes care of everybody pretty well.
