Exact JobBOSS Software

Exact JobBOSS is one of the most popular quoting, planning, and manufacturing execution systems in the market today. It is most often adopted by small to mid-sized job shops using Quickbooks, Excel, and/or paper folders looking to streamline operations, improve visibility, and grow revenue. The software offers complete functionality for sales quoting, order and job creation, job scheduling (both infinite and finite capacity), material requirements planning (MRP), and manufacturing execution (MES) / shop floor control. In job boss reviews, users often praise the system for it's ease of use in setting up and creating job quotes. We find that one key selling point for many JobBoss users is the fact that it can integrate seamlessly with Quickbooks, or be sold with its own accounting module. The other major selling point is the jobBOSS price. Many companies can get into the system for as little as a few thousand dollars, leading Exact to become a very popular option for firms trying to avoid a large ERP system spend. JobBOSS manufacturing software is offered in three different packages (Starter, Professional, and Enterprise). As a result, many small firms will adopt it with the comfort of knowing they can grow with the system over time. More feature-rich packages will include advanced functionality for serial number tracking, CRM, workflow automation, and quality control. JobBOSS ERP software is fairly unique in its ability to be deployed on-premise or over the Web. Exact was founded in 1984 by young entrepreneurs working out of their garage. Over time, Exact has retained its commitment to software for SMBs and has hence become one of the bigger names in ERP software. The company is headquartered in the Netherlands with offices worldwide. Due to its popularity--and high ratings in JobBOSS reviews from customers--we very often recommend this software to small companies looking for a very affordable system as well as larger companies in need of a robust ERP solution.
