Pre-built adapters simplify CI/CD processes but monitoring improvements are needed
If Bamboo can provide a dashboard with tool health, such as whether the master or instance has the required space, it would be beneficial. Sometimes, when I trigger a build, it ends with no space on the agent machine where the agents are installed. If Bamboo can create an internal monitoring mechanism and display the tool's health status on the landing page or homepage, it would help end users and DevOps Engineers like me.

Integrated planning has improved document automation but reporting and user experience still need work
There are areas where Infor CloudSuite can improve. I have touched on the pros and key strengths of Infor CloudSuite, but end-user feedback indicates that there are several areas where the user experience can improve. For instance, when it comes to reporting, it comes with a very limited number of reports, and the standard reports are clunky, requiring a technical resource or developer to enhance or make them presentable. Another area is user experience; it takes several clicks to get to the information, and the user interface isn't that intuitive. Compared to other solutions, such as top-tier options such as Oracle or SAP, this stands out as an area needing improvement. When it comes to integration, Infor CloudSuite does offer a great deal of flexibility. It comes with APIs, so you can integrate with any third-party systems you may use. On that front, it's sufficient; however, it does require some specialized resources, as it's not a layman's job, and developers need to help with the integration. This is generally the case for any ERP. The user interface could indeed be better, and there is a steep learning curve for users; it takes time for them to get accustomed to Infor CloudSuite's interface and forms. However, once users adapt, it becomes easier and smoother to navigate. There are great features associated with Infor CloudSuite, such as DataViews and Birst as a business intelligence tool, which can be integrated with the basic product. Implementing Birst isn't plug-and-play; it requires a team of technical resources to execute. Additionally, there is a feature that allows integration with Excel, which can be installed by your IT team.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I like the fact that the annual days are calculated automatically and that if annual leave is taken in the future, those days are put on hold. You know at every point how many days of annual leave are you left with and how many are on hold."
"BambooHR is accessible to users who aren't good with technology. If you don't have an IT background, you can easily find information about any employee."
"The scalability of BambooHR is good."
"This is a scalable solution. We have not experienced any issues."
"The performance goals and personal features of every employee with the dashboard is most valuable."
"The tool's most valuable features are the recruitment module, performance module, and document storage."
"It's very user-friendly and easy to train someone new. It was easy to implement and get someone onboarded on the system."
"The product is user-friendly."
"Workflow management and collaboration tools enhance operations and facilitate seamless interaction among departments."
"The stability of the solution is perfect. I rate it a ten out of ten."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The employee interface, specifically the UI, is one of the most valuable features in Infor CloudSuite, and after implementing it, I have seen numerous improvements in the UI space, including simplified navigation that has become easier with every CU, which is positive."
"Infor CloudSuite is a kind of ERP that is suitable for a medium or small discrete manufacturer, especially in the health sector, life sciences, and biotechnologies."
"It offers a facility to get data quickly."
"Infor's environment—ION and Infor OS—is better than SAP's. The load time is shorter and Infor performs much better than SAP."
"It is a complete wave management system to increase processing efficiency."
 

Cons

"If you are dealing with two or more businesses under one company name, it is not possible to transfer employees between companies if they have a separate bamboo set up."
"The UI needs improvement because it needs to be more user-friendly."
"The color palettes could be changed to make the solution a little more attractive and easier to use."
"If Bamboo can provide a dashboard with tool health, such as whether the master or instance has the required space, it would be beneficial."
"In the BambooHR performance management annual evaluations we have some limits to the questions. We can only add four extra questions, and they already have three basic questions, this is not easy for us. We would like to have more flexibility with the questions."
"We cannot add more questions to the assessments if we want to."
"There are some issues with the job tab under my info where you add the salary."
"If Bamboo can create an internal monitoring mechanism and display the tool's health status on the landing page or homepage, it would help end users and DevOps Engineers like me."
"The disadvantages of Infor CloudSuite are related to Absence Management. There are too many setups for users to establish absence plans, formulas, and calculations."
"There are areas where Infor CloudSuite can improve. For instance, when it comes to reporting, it comes with a very limited number of reports, and the standard reports are clunky, requiring a technical resource or developer to enhance or make them presentable."
"The price of the solution is not good."
"Infor needs to work on its documentation. For example, if I need to create a business object deployment from LVN to element, the instructions for this are insufficient. Many specific use cases aren't covered in the manual."
"For the quality department, there is a module called quality, and I feel it has to be a little bit simplified."
"The platform's distribution features need enhancement."
"The solution's support service could be better."
"The price of the solution is not good. In Europe, it's difficult to find people who already know Infor, which was a problem during implementation."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We pay a monthly subscription to use the solution. The subscript model is based on how many employees we have active."
"It was definitely cheaper than some of the larger systems."
"I rate the tool's pricing an eight out of ten."
"Price-wise, the solution is in the middle compared to other tools offering similar functionalities."
"I feel it is not very cheap, very economical but also not very expensive."
"It is a cost-effective solution."
"I'm working for a German company, but I'm located in Portugal. In the German market, Infor's price isn't an issue for clients, but Infor is losing market share every year to SAP in Portugal. Portuguese clients find SAP more affordable. Infor needs to work on this."
"The product is expensive. I rate the pricing a five out of ten."
"For on-premise installations, the licensing is yearly."
"The pricing is not built on a standard model."
"As for pricing, I secured a favorable deal at around $80,000 yearly for five years, but it was a one-time opportunity."
"The platform's pricing depends on the specific number of users."
