Advanced user of OpenBOMThe whole idea of live catalogs and pricing all around is a winner. OpenBOM Simplifies this process into an easy to use user interface. I love the way things are linked together to help find what your looking for from previous BOM's
I don't like when it makes me look Stupid. OpenBom can keep track of rev levels...
Learn how to do some basic programming using a reference catalog. You may find this helpful. Use for something as simple as redirecting P/N's. (Manufacturer to Internal part number is an example).
Also, there are now many how-to videos and tutorials; watch them and learn how this service works before your initial setup. Learning how it works before initial setup is critical if you're an existing company with many excel Boms that will be copy-pasted into it for data entry to get started.
Consistent descriptions. Helps us not use obsolete or re-numbered parts. Help correct all our old Excel BOM's We have a reference catalog that can tell us bad/wrong Part Numbers. We can also use it to show, globally in all BOM's, when a part goes EOL. This is great to put into it.
