What do you like best?

We performed detailed and extensive PoC studies with different companies during our vendor selection process. Cplex was the only solver to be able to solve our detailed scheduling problem and IBM was much more professional. In addition to Cplex's power, we also very much appreciated the support and expertise of IBM l through the implementation of our project.

What do you dislike?

More help on analyzing infeasible problems and tuning would be nice.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

I strongly suggest others to test & analyze solvers as well as vendors thru PoCs even though that process takes considerable amount of time. And never forget about the future technical support.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

We solve different supply chain planning and scheduling problems including s&op and some specific blending problems. We are able to run many what-if scenarios automatically and ensure that we get a much better solution than manual rule-based approaches.
