MORE MX vs SkyPlanner APS

MORE MX provides production visibility and manufacturing workflow tools for make-to-order operations. Its planning tools assess stock, sales and purchase orders, multi-level bills of materials, and production already underway to suggest what to make or buy. Workcenter schedules prioritize workloads, account for finite capacity, and forecast deliveries; planners can adjust schedules with drag-and-drop what-if feedback. A capacity calendar covers variable shifts, rosters, holidays, maintenance downtime, start times, and breaks. Factory screens collect job-time and QA data in real time on touchscreens or standard PC terminals, and the platform supports barcode-driven workflows. MORE MX presents production and inventory information from an EXO system. It is listed for Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, Windows, web, API, extensions, and self-hosted use. The software is paid, with pricing available on request; visitors can request a free demo.

SkyPlanner APS turns manufacturing orders, available materials, capacity and priorities into a finite-capacity production schedule. Its Arcturus AI engine calculates schedules in seconds and can revise them when production changes; planners retain control to set priorities and approve or override a plan. Scheduling tools include workstation calendars and shifts, routings, process dependencies, dynamic priorities and Gantt timelines. The core subscription also includes material-driven scheduling, material availability tracking and warehouse balances. Shop-floor teams can record work and follow progress through completion. SkyPlanner can be used on its own with manually entered or CSV-imported orders, or exchange data with ERP, MES and other systems through REST API access and supported webhooks. The cloud-based service runs in a browser and is available on desktop, tablet and phone. It supports Android, iOS, web and API access. A 30-day trial requires no credit card and allows up to 20 workstations.
