Featured Reviews

Valda Coelho - PeerSpot reviewer
Enhancing HR engagement with effective development but could benefit from AI-driven improvements
The primary feature I appreciate about the solution is the information connection, allowing us to have a full employee life cycle visibility over the platforms. It also enables the creation of interactions between employees, launching communication campaigns that raise engagement. From the HR side, the most valuable features are the Learning Management Systems (LMS) that allow providing a personalized service in terms of development, where each employee can choose and architect their development plans. The second valuable feature is the autonomy each employee has to update their personal data. In terms of talent management, it helps design development processes, backups, and clearly view the criteria for those backups being achieved.

Provides integrated solutions for international business operations
Infor CloudSuite offers a comprehensive solution with integrated business intelligence and artificial intelligence capabilities. It does not require hardware or extensive IT expertise, which are standard advantages for cloud solutions. Its integration capabilities with Microsoft features are notable. Additionally, it is a highly scalable and stable solution, useful for large enterprises engaged in international business. It is also easy to maintain compared to other ERP solutions.

After going through different test executions and workshops, any missing features can be added using Infor extension tables and other products. It will take at least eight to nine months to go live."

Cons

"The solution is a little bit slow."
"There are difficulties regarding the reporting part."
"The first response usually lacks depth, and if it were just an HR user submitting tickets, the outcome might be poor."

"The user interface could be improved and the maintenance is complex when it comes to upgrades."

"Regarding integration, specific third-party tools are not accepted, for example, on the old version of IBM or Oracle."
"Currently, there are some challenges with handling large reports, possibly due to setup limits or issues with the solution."
"For the quality department, there is a module called quality, and I feel it has to be a little bit simplified."

"The price of the solution is not good."
"In Germany, there aren't enough IT specialists for customization and software development, causing projects to take too long."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Meta4 requires annual maintenance that needs to be paid for."

"I feel it is not very cheap, very economical but also not very expensive."
"The pricing is not built on a standard model."
"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."
"The platform's pricing depends on the specific number of users."
"It is a cost-effective solution."
"As for pricing, I secured a favorable deal at around $80,000 yearly for five years, but it was a one-time opportunity."
