With Avercast, you move from guesswork to confidence, ensuring the right product is in the right place at the right time.

At the heart of Avercast Supply Chain Planning is the most advanced forecasting engine in the industry, with more than 350 algorithms designed to model every type of demand scenario.

With demand forecasting, you generate rapid, AI-powered forecasts with built-in sales forecasting, new product introduction modeling, and promotion and event planning. A global apparel company used these capabilities to reduce inventory carrying costs and boost efficiency, even with a lean team. With supply planning, you optimize safety stock, balance service levels, and release time-phased orders by SKU, vendor, and location to avoid shortages and reduce excess. An industrial parts manufacturer achieved $1.5M in inventory savings by aligning raw material purchases with production needs through smarter supply planning. Sales and operations planning (S\&OP) unifies siloed data into one model, giving you role-based dashboards for executives, finance, sales, and operations. Analytics give you visibility into inventory, vendor performance, and margin impacts. One automotive manufacturer managing 13,000+ SKUs used Avercast Supply Chain Planning to improve turnover, cut excess stock, and support long-term growth across its dealer network. Avercast Supply Chain Planning transforms siloed data into one model, so you can reduce overstocks and stockouts, shorten lead times, and respond with agility when demand and supply shift.

With thousands of fast moving SKUs we are able to manage the forecasting and planning in literally minutes with customized reports. What really makes a business different, apart from functionalities, is the service it provides to it's customers and the value it adds. As a customer, working with Avercast for over a year, we have been extremely satisfied with the service and state-of-the-art functionalities which the software brings along. > > **Cons**: I would like to see an increase in the frequency of online webinars they currently hold, which not only encourages us to share best practices, with other organizations, but also acts as a medium to adapt to one. ----- ### "The Avercast program has many features that I use on a daily basis. Once I understood how the progr" — 4.0/5 > **James** | *1 May 2018* | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Avercast gives you the ability to make forecast plans and events on several levels. It allows you to not only plan demand at the SKU level, it has the ability to roll that demand up to different levels, allowing you to get a high level view of the total demand and overall trends. The built in forecasting methods are a covenant when you want to automate some of your forecasting. The data extract and import modules are very convenient when you are maintaining your items, or updating a large number of forecasts at one time. The program overall has helped us reduce our overall inventory levels, as well as helped us gain better access and visibility into our supply and forecasting plans. > > **Cons**: Because Avercast has so many built in fuctions, and the Avercast team continues to improve the functionality of the program, one of the difficulties that we see are, whenever there is a new version roll out there are several customizations that we have built into our version that need to be rewritten and rebuilt into our new versions in order for our program to run correctly again. Although the use of built in forecasting methods makes forecasting convienant, it is often difficult to know which forecasting algorithms are being applied to the forecast and what data they are being derived from. It would be nice if Avercast gave you an idea of what forecasting methods are being applied and how to interpret the out put of those forecasting algorithms. ----- ### "It is a great tool to view & track inventory" — 4.0/5 > **Daniel** | *7 June 2018* | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to use \& to review the data, exporting of data is also user friendly.Easy to view inventory by category, by dollar , by group > > **Cons**: Not that easy to make adjustments \& keep the adjustments ----- ### "Avercast's tool is already robust, but they are next level when it comes to cutting edge development" — 5.0/5 > **Molly** | *1 May 2018* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Flexibility, customer service, openness and follow through to develop enhancements, consistent and easy implementation, quick ROI > > **Cons**: I have little to no complaints, this should be a software solution that is on everyone's list when considering purchasing a demand planning software system. > > We've not only seen generous financial gains from the reduction of excess inventory as a by product of implementing the software but also a major improvement in our processes, collaboration, and general understanding of our mission as planners for the company. Our team now spends the appropriate amount of time analyzing the data, putting into practice the adage of "work smarter, not harder." Avercast is the tool that will allow our company sustainable growth for decades moving forward. ----- ### "Great Planning Software for Manufacturing" — 5.0/5 > **Jim** | *13 July 2018* | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: We have been using Avercast for 4-5 years now, and the improvements from our old methods to this have been very noticeable. Given the wide range of algorithms the system uses and not to mention the ease of use, whether you are a roll-up or top-down planning company, Avercast adapts to your business needs. More importantly, because of Avercast our team is allowed to focus our time on outliers in the system. When you are a very SKU intense organization like we are, time management is everything. I think the biggest gain with Avercast though is the customer support you receive with the software. There's no helpdesk email or portal system. We simply call the office and speak right with their developers; a huge win in our opinion. > > **Cons**: The only thing that needs improvement, in our opinion is the user interface. With Avercast being an SQL based program, it still resembles one on the front end. Given the enhancements in technology each day, it would be great to see the Avercast software get a new face lift. Don't be fooled though. The dated design in no way reflects the capabilities of the calculations and processes that the software uses. We don't care how dated the front end looks as long as the information is accurate and correct. > > Great Customer Support. Enhancement requests heard at the annual customer conference. Assurance that the best plan is being implemented by the system which saves us time and money annually. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/426404/avercast?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/426404/avercast) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
