Energy dashboards have given us clear cost insights and guide data driven production decisions
I hope Insights Hub can support a UMS idea and solution in the future. If we have a UMS hub or data center, Insights Hub could integrate with our database, allowing us to share one data center regardless of whether it is our MES system, SCADA system, or Insights Hub, which would be more efficient for a global company. Insights Hub could connect to our UMS data center, which would eliminate the need to rebuild a connection between the shop floor and Insights Hub. Additionally, Insights Hub could support MES functions, allowing us to integrate with the production line and transfer the ERP order from the ERP to our shop floor, thus helping the ERP be more efficient. This would include performing a buy-off from the shop floor to the ERP and adjusting the production plan for the ERP production order for greater efficiency in our production planning. I hope we can achieve MES functions in an IoT solution such as Insights Hub. One point I am not so satisfied with regarding Insights Hub is the gateway, which I believe runs on a Linux or Unix OS but does not display well for our end-users. This requires us to ask for help and support from our IT department as we cannot perform what we can do with a Windows device, such as RDP to the gateway and monitor any issues inside. Sometimes we do not know the issue exactly and have to check the log, which is very complex for the end-user.

Team collaboration has improved and project tracking is clearer but downtime still causes disruption
I think there are some parts of Lark that have not been translated, and sometimes there is a glitch where the product still uses Chinese words. Lark occasionally experiences downtime, and during those times, we usually use WhatsApp for communication and coordination, which can be frustrating. Regarding Lark's AI capabilities, I believe they are good in terms of governance and security. I think there is still room for improvement regarding the accuracy and reliability of Lark's AI output.
