Cloud Operations Engineer
Integrated planning has improved production scheduling and now reduces downtime and costs
The biggest friction point I have run into with IFS Cloud Platform is user adoption, which has been the biggest challenge, as different users in the organization need to get accustomed to the new processes after years of using spreadsheets and legacy systems, requiring training and a mindset shift, along with challenging data migration and process standardization. My advice to someone considering IFS Cloud Platform with a similar workflow is to spend sufficient time understanding and standardizing their business processes before implementing it, as the technology is very powerful, but the real value comes when processes, data, and teams are all aligned. I would rate my overall experience with IFS Cloud Platform as a 9 out of 10.

Marketing Director at UPS
Targeted push campaigns have increased conversions and are driving more repeat customer purchases
OneSignal has positively impacted my organization by allowing us to reduce our cost of customer acquisition and increase our conversion rate from 40 to 65%. We have also increased our conversion rate to 30%. Additionally, OneSignal has allowed us to grow our number of subscribers organically, driving more website traffic and increasing sales engagement and campaigns from 50% to 65%. Since we are able to send more push notifications to our subscribers on their preferred device, we can reach out to them and they can see what we offer as services, enabling them to subscribe to our platform. This allows us to drive more website traffic, increase sales, enhance sales engagement, and drive more productivity. OneSignal offers the best features, including sending instant notifications without delay, providing all necessary features for testing, being highly cost-effective, handling huge volume efficiently, and providing great customer support.
