Endorsements and Recommendations from EPLAN Users

40% Savings on New Designs

My client believes he saves about 40% on average on a design from scratch using EPLAN as opposed to its competitors, and on projects that are a copy of a previous design in EPLAN he says he saves about 60% on average on his labour costs.

Improved Time to Market

One of our good customer have been using EPLAN for years and swear by the product. They often comment on how much it has improved their time to market.

Troubleshooting and Maintenance

EPLAN had huge benefits on the troubleshooting side of things for our maintenance associates. PDF of the drawings can be stored on line side pc's that have searchable cross references which is a time saving feature during a machine downtime event.

Quality Documentation

The documentation is professional. In the past we would avoid giving the documentation to our clients. Now, we readily send it to them with pride.

Increase Number of Projects

We just finalized a large and complex project in 4 months. This is a project that would have taken us around 8 months with our old tools. As a result, instead of doing one project per year, we can now do three projects.

Intuitive Software

The more you use it, the better you become, and it’s quite an intuitive software!

EPLAN Customer Solutions

Individualised Development Services for Unique Processes

Many different people, machines and systems are involved in engineering and downstream production processes, which often result in processes not fitting into any sort of general scheme. While existing ERP, PDM and PLM systems cannot be connected using standard interfaces, production planning and manufacturing systems need data from engineering. A lack of integration leads to media disruptions, additional manual work for employees and an increased susceptibility to errors. EPLAN Customer Solutions develops solutions for you that enable reliable data consistency whether using a standard or custom solution.

Services at a Glance

High Data Consistency – From Special Projects to the Entire Process

We develop software solutions for you that are specifically tailored to your needs, ranging from functional enhancements and integration into other system landscapes such as PLM, ERP, PLC through to applications needed to map your processes. Our experienced software specialists work with you to define possible solutions and suitable technologies, and individually coordinate the development steps with you. This gives you an overview of the current development status and the costs incurred, and enables you to actively control them.
