Room For Improvement

IFS Cloud users find documentation unclear, tools inflexible, integration challenging, support lacking, and pricing high, hindering performance and usability.
NetSuite OneWorld needs improvements in usability, inventory analytics, production planning, and performance to address user frustration and inefficiencies.
There is not much available online, and the documentation availability is on the lower side compared to other products, especially Maximo.

They are working on IFS AI, but we have not explored much into that yet, and if they want to keep their competitive edge, that is an area they need to concentrate on.
Consultant at Arcwide
It would be useful if the platform could identify bottlenecks, predict capacity management issues, and recommend specific actions to users before operations are impacted.

The performance could be improved as this is a 100% software as a service platform.

Cloud Operations Engineer
Integrated planning has improved production scheduling and now reduces downtime and costs
The biggest friction point I have run into with IFS Cloud Platform is user adoption, which has been the biggest challenge, as different users in the organization need to get accustomed to the new processes after years of using spreadsheets and legacy systems, requiring training and a mindset shift, along with challenging data migration and process standardization. My advice to someone considering IFS Cloud Platform with a similar workflow is to spend sufficient time understanding and standardizing their business processes before implementing it, as the technology is very powerful, but the real value comes when processes, data, and teams are all aligned. I would rate my overall experience with IFS Cloud Platform as a 9 out of 10.

Seamless subsidiary operation visibility with efficient accounting consolidation
One of the most valuable features that I appreciate is the ability to consolidate operations across subsidiaries, which makes accounting consolidation great. The multicurrency reevaluation offered by OneWorld enables consolidation from different branches, such as country or continent levels, making it a powerful feature. Additionally, there is visibility into all operations within the subsidiaries, facilitating awareness of sales, purchases, and manufacturing activities.
