Offers inventory management, basic ERP functions but outdated interface
The interface looks a bit outdated. Epicor acquired iScala, which was originally developed in Sweden. I'm unsure if their intention is to eventually replace iScala with their primary Epicor ERP or continue developing iScala. Initially, it seemed they might replace it, but it appears iScala will remain a separate product.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The accounting, purchasing, and basic ERP functions work well. But they are a little bit older, but they work for us. The inventory management is good and necessary for any company that manages stock for production or services."
"It's fast, predicts well, and is basically the best tool in the market for the automotive industry and network planning projects."
"The support is excellent. It is a great company."
"Material planning and predictive planning are both essential aspects."
"The advantage of Infor LN is the ability to customize some sessions directly to what our business needs."
"The most valuable feature is its ability to handle products with up to 2,500 components, making it valuable for streamlining complex business operations."
"Infor LN has led to money saving and cost savings since I started using it."
"The most valuable features are manufacturing, and manufacturing costing modules. These are all powerful features of Infor LN."
"The best feature of this solution is it comes as a complete bundle. The solution has effective project, document, and application management. Additionally, the collaboration is fantastic, it is well integrated, and can be customized."
 

Cons

"We're facing challenges with iScala in the public sector, specifically healthcare. The system doesn't have sufficient support for the complexities of managing payments for doctors, nurses, and other healthcare staff."
"Our version of Infor LN is quite old, and we have discussed upgrading."
"There is always room for improvement. Our version of Infor LN is quite old, and we have discussed upgrading."
"The training for Infor LN is not straightforward, so a non-specialist will need training before using it."
"Infor LN has customer support in India, but service could be improved. So, basically, they prioritize agreements, and the number of tickets closed within a certain timeframe, not necessarily the quality or resolution of the tickets themselves. They just open and close them, sometimes without even understanding the issue. That's the biggest problem."
"It's not that intuitive."
"The user interface of Infor LN is not very user-friendly."
"The user interface of Infor LN could be more intuitive for common users. Sometimes, it is necessary to have an expert for connections."
"From a technical perspective, LN needs to work on customization and integration. It's fairly expensive for many clients to migrate from a customized private solution to the cloud. Infor needs to improve the cloud solution to make the migration from the on-prem customized solution faster and smoother. Otherwise, many clients will find it difficult or expensive to do."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Compared to local ERP solutions, it's on the higher side."
"Only people who undergo training from the companies can learn about Infor products."
"The price of the solution can vary."
"The tool’s AMC and support are given on a yearly basis. You need to make monthly payments for support."
"The cost is somewhat high."
"Compared to other high-end ERP software, Infor LN's cost of ownership is lower. The difference isn't huge, though."
"If you use Infor LN in Infor CloudSuite, there is a need to make an early payment for a license, which is approximately 2,500 EUR."
"Infor LN is a free solution, and everything is included in the package, such as add-ons."
"We have to pay a licensing fee for the solution."
