I've never used DataPage, and we don't have a lot of SPC at our shop (but we use other tools to inspect the parts that are run on the machines with SPC, like a tallyrond)
Using the internal PC-DMIS reporter, while quirky, seems to do a good enough job. It's a mother to set up, but once it's done it looks alright.
So I'm curious as to what the benefit of DataPage is. As far as I understand, it's just a seperate reporting software made by Hex that does more or less the same stuff (with a few added enhancements of course). It seems like bloatware.
Anyone who uses DataPage care to tell me some pros? I'm always looking to improve my experience (if I can do my job easier, well, that's more programs in the same amount of time.)
I'm relatively new to PC-DMIS, so I want to try out everything.
I figure if this or that is better I might as well try and get used to it now instead of getting used to something else and eventually trying that anyway!
Also, what's the difference between regular and plus? I would imagine plus has more (and
is more! $) but I'd like to know what actual users have to say about their personal experiences with the software.
While looking it up finds good results, I would imagine that a review by the people who wrote it might be a little biased...
I haven't heard any more info on this DataPage phase out subject since the user group meeting until now. I do still see Datapage on there product site. This would be a very bad investment to purchase a software and training just find out that it will no longer be upgraded in the future. I have told my current employer not to invest any more into DataPage and start looking at different spc software. Here is a link to Hexagons available Statistical Process Control (SPC) Software.
