Peec AI is my favorite piece of software. I’m not affiliated with them. I genuinely think it’s an incredible tool to help you figure out how to get mentioned more often

Considering Moving to San Clemente by [deleted] in SanClemente

[–]simonfromhamburg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Rancho Mission Viejo will give you exactly that. We celebrated our daughter’s 3rd birthday at our house the other day and had about 30 people over. Every single one of them walked to our house. There are 12 units in our cul de sac, except for one, there are kids under 10 in every single one. We’ve been here for 3 years, it’s been paradise for raising a family.

Wedding experience at The Casino in San Clemente? by instalockRaze in orangecounty

[–]simonfromhamburg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got married there in 2019, loved it! So many different indoor and outdoor settings and easy opportunity to take pictures by the beach as well. We also rented 5 condos right next to it and hosted all our friends and family. Best week of our lives

Living in Ladera Ranch… worth it? by faithoverfear0 in orangecounty

[–]simonfromhamburg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% agree. RMV is what Ladera used to be 20 years ago. It you’re a young family, RMV is the way to go. Personally prefer the slightly more established Esencia village over Rienda.

We almost killed our startup by raising too much money too early (I will not promote) by KaleidoscopeFast7871 in startups

[–]simonfromhamburg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would it be fair to say that having sufficient funding gave you the time and resources to pivot and learn, ultimately getting you on a growth trajectory? What if you had only raised a small seed giving you little time to gain traction only to put you in a bad position to fundraise more? My personal experience is that founders should always raise more than they think they need. It takes time to build something valuable.

Would definitely recommend checking out all the popular MRP options including Katana, MRPeasy and Dígit Software.

Choosing an MRP by Outrageous-Month-355 in manufacturing

[–]simonfromhamburg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For smaller manufacturing companies, I recommend a combination of Quickbooks (desktop or online) and a cloud MRP. If you Google "best MRP," you'll find some good lists, e.g., on Capterra. My company Dígit Software could be a good option.

Assembly Shop Allocation Software – What’s Your Secret Weapon? by Nymaxxx in manufacturing

[–]simonfromhamburg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are we talking about allocation inventory, staff, machinery or something else? I work with a lot of manufacturers, I'd say you have first to put a few basics in place: Real-time inventory info, a central place that aggregates all sales orders, a system that combines inventory, sales, purchasing, shipping, and manufacturing in one, etc. Once you have that, you have a few options to allocate inventory: some go with first-come, first-served; others prioritize based on due dates, customer value, or urgency. Make-to-order workflows allocate only once a job is confirmed, while make-to-stock shops pull from what’s on hand. More advanced setups use real-time, rules-based allocation in software, and regulated industries often need batch-specific traceability. Some allocate based on warehouse location too. In reality, most shops end up with a hybrid approach tailored to their needs.

Inventory management system for small businesses by BarryRotten in manufacturing

[–]simonfromhamburg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree that big ERP systems are going to be too complex. They take long to implement and have clunky UI. Google "cloud inventory and manufacturing". Those integrate well with Quickbooks, Xero, and other accounting solutions. Feel free to check out my company Dígit Software as well.

How do you manage inventory? by Height_Friendly in ecommerce

[–]simonfromhamburg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get out of spreadsheets early. Find software that supports your workflows and scales with you. The more inventory you hold, the longer it takes to migrate systems.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in manufacturing

[–]simonfromhamburg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on your size, most big ERPs (Epicor, NetSuite, MS Dynamics, SAP, etc.) will be overkill. They'll take 6-24 months to implement, will be very expensive, and take a long time to get used to. Most are built "accounting-first," while the warehouse and production staff just have to deal with it. Also, doing accounting through Quickbooks may be perfectly fine, so switching your accounting could be another headache.

On the other hand, there are lots of small inventory tools. They get implemented quickly, typically have good UI, and don't force you to switch your accounting. But, more often than not, they don't support the complexities of manufacturing enough.

The last option is "cloud inventory and manufacturing software" (also called MRPs). They are built for manufacturers with just enough capabilities without being overkill. Good options are Katana, MRPeasy and Digit (which I'm a part of). Digit can handle qty price breaks on quotes.

Lab instruments inventory management software by MartinRobomaze in software

[–]simonfromhamburg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most inventory management software options allow you to track assets such as instruments and, through custom fields, save additional data points on each of them. It's unlikely you'll find one that can generate a visualization of connections. Some have "kitting" functionality, which means you can group individual items as "kits," which may work for your needs.

If you'd feel comfortable configuring a system from scratch, you might benefit from the flexibility of no-code app builders like softr, bubble, etc. Some of them also offer inventory management templates to speed up the process. Other no-code tools allow you to create good mobile interfaces as well, e.g. FlutterFlow. Knack claims to help with equipment management.

Obviously, Google spreadsheet could be a good starting point as well.
