Who can use SATRAData?

It is tailored for the footwear industry, but can be used in any industry where there is a requirement for accurate predictions of production times and labour costs. Current users include footwear, bag, belt and accessory manufacturers.

Does the software work across a network?

Yes. The basic system is single user. However this can be extended to run across both local and wide area networks and to support multiple users.

How do I get my stitch paths and other pattern information into the system?

Paths for any operation that require them, such as stitching and skiving, can be entered via a digitising tablet, which is supplied by SATRA as part of the package.

Does SATRA provide Method Analysis Training separately?

Yes we do. However, the greatest benefits are achieved when you have the whole SATRAData package. It is also significantly cheaper to buy the SATRAData package as a whole rather than in modules.

Does SATRA provide additional training at a later date?

Yes, you can always purchase additional training to suit your needs.

I am interested in SATRAData, what is the next step?

We recommend that you contact our consultants to discuss your unique needs and requirements.

Can we use multiple databases within the same system?

Yes. The SATRAData program can be connected to any number of different SATRAData databases. To switch between databases, the user must exit the system and choose a different database before running the software again.

Who does the installation and setup?

Our consultants will come and install the system for you to your requirements.

How will I learn about the software and the features it offers?

We provide comprehensive training in all aspects of the SATRAData system.

Does the system use passwords to secure my data?

Yes. All your users will have their own passwords, which they set themselves.

Can I set up my own users and passwords?

Yes, you will need to elect someone to be your system supervisor. This person will be able to create user accounts, set rights and reset passwords if your users forget them.

How many users can be logged into the system at any one time?

SATRAData can be scaled to allow as many simultaneous users as you need. You choose this, based on your requirements and budget, prior to installation. If you require more users in the future then this can be arranged at additional cost.
