How to choose

Which shop-floor functions should I compare?

Start with the tasks your team needs the software to cover. The board compares digital work instructions, production dispatch, live status boards, issue escalation and production scheduling.

Which platforms does the software need to run on?

Choose software that runs on the platforms your team uses. The board includes web, iOS, Android, Windows, self-hosted and API as platform options.

For example, 24Flow is listed for web, while Dozuki is listed for web, iOS, Android and API. Confirm that a product's listed platforms match your setup.

How should I compare plans and prices?

Compare the free-plan mark and the paid-from price, if one is listed. Some pricing notes give a price, while others say pricing is on request.

A free trial is different from a free plan. Check the listing's trial and plan details before deciding what fits your budget.

Does it offer an API, open-source code or a free tier?

Check the API, open-source and free-tier marks against your needs. An API is a way for software to connect with other software; open-source code can be inspected under its licence.

If you need to try the product without paying, distinguish a free tier from a time-limited trial.
