Hi I am sure that machine shop people are different people and standard pendant must be there and also rigid and robust system is important. One glitch is software may cost to machine shop $ 100 K as a scrap part. Involving 3rd party software such as X-key will contribute a lot to glitches one after another in order to latter offer a lots of solution to sole those problems.
I am sure that it is important to keep system simple.
