## Reviews

### "Steelhead software is designed well for surface finishing and manufacturing processes" — 5.0/5

> **Ben** | *20 November 2023* | Building Materials | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Steelhead has many layers of customization that can be used to dial in variables in your operation. Moving parts, tracking orders, overall visibility is very intuitive and simple for operators.
> 
> **Cons**: At first there were extra steps in order entry that seemed redundant or unnecessary for our operation. After a while with the help of engineers, we were able to remove some, and others became routine after hundreds of orders entered.
> 
> Very positive overall. Steelhead really believes in the product that they have created and back it up 100 percent. The team assigned to our launch was very enthusiastic and took ownership of our account. Overall I believe the software was a good fit for us.

### "New Customer" — 5.0/5

> **Frank** | *29 November 2023* | Building Materials | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Steelhead has provided an opportunity for our company to monitor of processes and ability to grow with real time data.
> 
> **Cons**: I have not came across any items that have disappointed me that have not been resolved when discussed with the Steelhead team.
> 
> This process has been and great experience.  I was worried about bringing on the new system and the large learning curve it would create with our team.  Also, I had a little hesitancy if investing the time in effort in onboarding the Steelhead system would be a benefit for the company.  I have found it to be nothing but a success in giving us the tools for future success.

### "Steelhead Review" — 4.0/5

> **Madelyn** | *12 December 2022* | Industrial Automation | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: What I like most about the Steelhead software is that all of the information is easily accessible in order to help you better understand the company. Following this further, you are able to see where your profits are coming from, or if you need to be more efficient as a whole, which in my opinion, is extremely valuable information to any size company. There are also plenty of useful and helpful features available for use.
> 
> **Cons**: What I like least about this software is that it is unable to be fully customized to an individual business, but the team at Steelhead does a nice job trying to make up for this.

### "Steelhead" — 4.0/5

> 
> **Pros**: Production flow and monitoring.  Being able to access anytime from web devices (Phones)
> 
> **Cons**: Monthly Expenese.  Automaded emails are sometimes held by spam filters.
> 
> Great user experience.  Easy to manage and modify inputs.  Saves admin time.

### "Steelhead is Completely Changing the Efficiency of our Operation." — 5.0/5

> **Eva** | *13 December 2022* | Building Materials | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The quoting module is what we currently use the most.  Steelhead enables us to capture all of our quote data, prints, specifications - etc.  and we no longer have to reference or rely on our paper records.  As we continue to integrate more of our operation, Steelhead continues to drive our efficiency.  No more need for paper travelers, cloud based packing slips and signature capture, a complete visualization of where the work in our facility is located....the list goes on.
> 
> **Cons**: Really don't dislike anything at this time.  It's a rather new software, so where there may be missing modules, or a shortcoming on data capture - their engineers are CONSTANTLY updating the software and expanding it's capabilities and offerings.  I quite literally wake up each day excited to see what is next to come\!
> 
> From beginning to end, I cannot say enough good things about Steelhead.  Their employees from sales, to engineering, implementation, customer service - all stellar.  Very easy to work with, eager to help - and willing to admit when they don't know something, but quick to get answers on those items\!  Every operation / company they work with undoubtedly has varying requirements, and use their software in differing ways.  Regardless of how their software is used, all Steelhead wants to do is continue to improve upon it based on your specific needs.  It gets built out and improved based on what their customer's needs are, and that's what sets them apart the most.
