Once you get to know it, it's more or less easy, but I would prefer something friendlier for people who are new to Campfire Interactive. I've been working with it for some years, and I understand it, but for people coming new to the company needing training in Campfire Interactive, sometimes they see there are so many things, and it's not so friendly to use. There are aspects that can be repetitive when filling in those things every time. I would recommend Campfire Interactive to other users, especially if they are working with Excel. I would recommend moving to the Campfire Interactive application because it's much safer, better for tracking, and better for reporting everything from the application. I don't think Excel has the same stability that an application system like Campfire Interactive can have. Overall, I would rate Campfire Interactive an eight out of ten.

We do not use any Material Index Management, but we use their pricing table to manage our long-term agreements, which include price reductions year over year. We can budget for those price reductions in the future. I would recommend Campfire Interactive to other users, but the choice really comes down to the specific use case, the importance of having built-in interfaces to manage your ship data, and how important it is to be able to give different programs different take-rates. Overall, I would rate Campfire Interactive an eight out of ten.

We don't use the material index management or the integrated business intelligence reporting features in Campfire Interactive, and I wish we did, only insofar as that may change my judgment. The way that we use Campfire Interactive is not for forecasting; we use IHS volumes and therefore, we don't actually use Campfire Interactive for the development of a forecast on the current year. I had a peer call me up last month and asked me if I would recommend Campfire Interactive, and I said I would not. I would rate Campfire Interactive overall as a six out of ten. There's a rough gem here that could be really great, but in its current form and its current way of operating, it's driving my global team quite mad.

Setting aside some of the IT Support issues that I've mentioned, which I know that they're working on, I would rate Campfire Interactive an eight overall for everything.

I would definitely recommend using this solution and also suggest evaluating other options to ensure the best fit. Overall, I would recommend it. The implementation was supported by a substantial team from Campfire. However, with many new customers, they occasionally became overwhelmed, leading to slowdowns due to the busy workforce. Overall, my experience has been positive. I would rate Campfire Interactive an eight out of ten.
