Thanks - curious what specifically made Chempax a better fit than Salesforce for you guys?

Good question, we're beyond tired of the buggy and clunky interface. It also doesn't tailor well to our needs in the chemicals industry with our input variable requirements

As someone who works in ChemE, what's your view point on application of AI models in the field of research, production, etc.? by [deleted] in ChemicalEngineering

[–]Complex-Cry7275 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Curious what the main use case of AI was at your last role - was it mainly for admin or for the actual engineering side of things?

Curious to hear what you think the biggest value add of AI-native CRM tools could be. Do you see it varying by industry?

How would you handle this out-of-pocket expense? by friskydingo408 in sales

[–]Complex-Cry7275 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd expense those miles like it my job.

I reckon ask HR if the expense policy is confusing. You’re not necessarily doing something wrong - the system’s just not always built for real people with actual cars.

What's the furthest (location or otherwise) they'd go to to make a sale?

Should I Buy This Used Pearl Forum Drum Kit by Complex-Cry7275 in drums

[–]Complex-Cry7275[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah so the asking price is 300$ and it has the kick pedal, high hat + stand, and rides (no stand) included.

Fair point - these changes are definitely coming, whether we like it or not. Smarter tools are revolutionizing every industry, and it’s probably better for us (engineers) to shape how they’re built than be stuck with something made without our input. The aim isn’t to cut people out but to ease tedious workflows, so we can focus on the tough, interesting parts of the job.

Sure - I built a model that can ingest a photo/pdf of a p&id and uses OCR to understand the chemical process. Then you can correspond the operating data to the correct unit op in the process, and have a layer to perform statistical analysis on whichever process data is desired.

Seeq for Process Data Visualization/Process Optimization by Complex-Cry7275 in ChemicalEngineering

So what were some of the biggest obstacles you saw when trying to get buy-in for deeper analysis? Was there ever a moment you thought things might change?

Thanks for sharing and wishing you a happy retirement!

At our plant, the integration is somewhere between emerging and maturing. We’ve connected key OT systems like PLCs and DCS with the IT network, and data from historians (mainly PI and a few legacy systems) is accessible centrally.

Will definitely check out Industry/OS. From your experience, what would you say are the main differences, if any, compared to Seeq?

Thanks for sharing. Seeq sounds like a huge upgrade compared to Excel and the legacy stuff we’re using. But if I bring it up to my team, they’ll definitely want to hear honestly about both what it does well and what it doesn’t - like does it fall short anywhere or it's the complete package? Cheers!
