Blackbird installation and operational experience

Reviewed on 08/03/2023

Pros

Ease of setup. Intuitive user and administrative interface. We were up and running within a few hours on our first production line and after validation have expanded to several production lines without any major issues. Additionally they provide very good user support.

Cons

Standard reporting could be improved but we have found that Blackbird have provided customised BI reports to meet our specific Company reporting requirements

I have worked with the system in multiple companies and what most common areas to improve has been the overall capacity, efficiency, and changeovers. But also to understand our flow and speed in a whole new level. We have worked a lot with improve specific product due to the batch function as well.

Pros

I think that it's not one thing there stands out, but the system in total.For us it's a great way to collect our data, compare, analyse etc. and therefore be smarter in our day to day decisions.

Cons

There i would say that you cant fully design all your needs, but thats understandable.

Blackbird, a great OEE and downtime analysis tool

Reviewed on 13/12/2022

Pros

Once deployed the software is reliable and incredibly easy to use providing detailed insight into OEE and downtime reasons.

Cons

Our initial install process was time-consuming and challenging for our particular use cast. However, I'm sure for more typical factory production line systems deployment and integration would be easy.
