### "Main-Tool  in der GFA T1" — 4.0/5

> **Sven** | *June 28, 2021* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Wir setzten Main-Tool  in der Wartung und Instandhaltung der Gepäckförderanlage Terminal 1 ein. Am besten hat mir die Zusammenarbeit mit unserem Dienstleister GLI gefallen, der unser Altsystem auf die  2018 neue Plattform portiert hatte. Die Software ist nach unseren Bedürfnissen in der Wartung  / Instandhaltung zugeschnitten.
> 
> **Cons**: Auch wenn die Software unseren Bedürfnissen angepasst wurde, gibt es in der Bedienung noch einige Punkte in der Bedienung, die aus Navision etwas sperrig sind. Allerding konnte kein anderer Mittbewerber diese Punkte besser  erfüllen.
