With SDS2 we are able to better integrate directly with the detailers, which has streamlined the workflow and helped improve the overall speed of delivery.

The snapping feature was a great tool to add. It will be very easy to move the material without clashing to another one.

Load Planning is now fully incorporated in Crystal Steel. Besides being used in the shop for faster truck loading, we are also using it for Estimodeling and Production planning purposes. The improvements made are all useful. Thank you for finding ways to make truck loading easier.

SDS2 Load Planning has been very helpful in planning and sequencing loads. The biggest help has been the bundling of angles iron parts. I am hoping to get our forklift operator trained on it so he can start building the loads virtually.
