CERDAAC Reviews

Honest Review

Comments: I use Cerdaac daily to track items within our facility. It helps me keep track of which department items are located. I do not use the reports function much.

Pros:

Ease of use and the ability to track both Simco calibrated items and items calibrated by other sources including internal. Also the support provided by [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN].

Cons:

The inability to search and find items with known information.

Calibration Certification

Pros:

Cerdaac is very easy to use and find information on all of our test equipment we use. I like having the option to view where the status of the equipment sent out to calibration is and what status the the equipment is in and where it is. Also like being able to look up equipment by asset number, makes finding information easy and list all the calibrations for that piece of equipment.

Cons:

Was used to working with old version of Cerdaac, now getting switched over to new version just learning all the options available on the new version.

Using Simco Software package

Comments: ease of use, local calibration lab generally helps speed up turnaround times for items in my database, pretty good certificates.

Pros:

CERDAAC was easy to learn and apply within our company, its a good database.

Cons:

It would be better if the calibration information was linked better when trying to review it in the making of a calibration certificate, you cant see your information side by side to fill in the blanks for printing a calibration certificate.

Great products with a great support

Comments: Great!

Support and flexible platform. Reliable.

Yet to be determined. Typically, support resolves the "least issues"

User Friendly Cerdaac

I just don't know what all reports can be created.

there is nothing wrong with working in CERDAAC so far.

CERDAAC at Vantiva

Pros:

Great for tracking test equipment (asset management) and for keeping up with calibration status. Items which are not currently in the calibration cycle can be tracked easily and added to the cal cycle when needed.

Cons:

Lag between issuance of a shipper and its receipt into the system, thus removing items submitted from the overdue reports.

CERDAAC for Calibration

Pros:

The database is very easy to use to look up assets and asset information.

Cons:

Our site has assets all over the plant and in some places they are hard to find. Having more detailed descriptions of where assets are would be helpful.

Works well for how I use it

Pros:

Cerdaac is fairly easy to use. For my use I take id numbers and enter them into the software and once finished it generates a shipper which gets attached to the equipment to get picked up.

Cons:

I would like to be able to scan the items into the software. It would make the process much faster.

Good for equipment, but needs to be more holistic with respect to the facility

Comments: More user friendly than other CMMS I've used, but less functionality. Good for equipment, but really need a program that's more holistic to the facility.

Pros:

System is usually pretty easy to navigate.

Cons:

Limited search parameters (e.g. can only search by Assets and not other identifiers within the record). The biggest drawback is that, I'm told, Rooms cannot be added- and thus work orders (e.g. cracks in walls, pest control) cannot be generated.

Pros:

Ease of use and the ease of downloading different reports that are available or pre-written.

too many different tabs to get different information in one tool.

I have no complaints. The only thing maybe would be the possibility to access video trainings about the software, that would be nice to access.

tracking assets just became easier

Some minor roles lack the option to save custom reports

Finding Help or training when needed on functionality that I (or other Asset Owners) don't use all the time. It is not readily available.

Some of the widgets do not always seem to give accurate information or the information that is given has some nuance behind it that cannot be explained by the numbers. The rest of the software is great.

CERDAAC Certificates

Comments: Overall, its good.

Pros:

The ESD and Calibration certificates that we find on CERDAAC tool has all the info the we need. we don't have to search for other details if we have this certificates. The tests done by SIMCO helps us to be in compliance.

It would be nice if the reviews are conducted periodically which hardens the software.
