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.

Integration and flexibility deliver outstanding business experiences with innovative platforms enhancements

Scale is a primary concern. If the product vision continues to serve small and mid-cap companies, they need to continue incorporating features into the out-of-the-box solution because small-caps typically lack budget for in-house IT organizations to customize and maintain systems. If they want to expand beyond mid-cap and enter the large-cap market, they need to consider balance and provide more customizability. This includes extending process flows through more APIs and building a more modular architecture with granular backend exposed via API. The process layer should allow clients to customize while invoking back-office APIs. The general perception positions Microsoft Dynamics GP in the middle of the market. Systems such as NetSuite and ServiceNow occupy the lower category, providing narrow use cases. Microsoft Dynamics GP offers more breadth and out-of-the-box capabilities at a slightly higher price point. At the top end, SAP, Oracle, and Salesforce offer extensive customizability at a premium price, suitable for large organizations with multiple transactions and customers. Microsoft Dynamics GP currently occupies a favorable position in the middle segment with limited competition.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Workflow management and collaboration tools enhance operations and facilitate seamless interaction among departments."

"It is a complete wave management system to increase processing efficiency."

"Infor's environment—ION and Infor OS—is better than SAP's. The load time is shorter and Infor performs much better than SAP."

"The solution is particularly effective for ERP. The automation of emails is a valuable feature for me. The solution is stable. The solution is scalable. Infor CloudSuite Industrial is better for its development aspect. It allows us to customize and implement changes more efficiently. The initial setup was straightforward. I recommend the solution."

"It offers a facility to get data quickly."

More Infor CloudSuite pros

"It is a tried and tested ERP system which if used correctly, is definitely a very good program for managing all aspects of a business from customer sales, and receivables management, to payable management and finance reporting. So, it's super critical for any mid-sized company."

"We have gained the capability to control and address various issues within the financial module effectively."

"Microsoft Dynamics GP has strong out-of-the-box reporting capabilities, and its integration with Office 365, Power Apps, and Power Platform provides great additional benefits, helping deliver better experiences to employees and customers."

Cons

"As far as pricing and licensing are concerned, more licenses are needed when companies grow with Infor CloudSuite."

"In Germany, there aren't enough IT specialists for customization and software development, causing projects to take too long."

"The platform's distribution features need enhancement."

"The solution's support service could be better."

"They could include marketing automation for the product."

"It takes time to properly learn what the product can do."

"The disadvantages of Infor CloudSuite are related to Absence Management. There are too many setups for users to establish absence plans, formulas, and calculations."

"The price of the solution is not good."

More Infor CloudSuite cons

"It still can be improved in web-based and build reporting. "

"This is now a legacy product, so they're phasing it out over time."

"With payroll, the payroll that they have offers US or Canadian tax. However, here, our tax payments are different from the US and Canada. It is very difficult to put in our tax tables. We need some customization. It should be readily available for any country to use according to their tax implications. The system should know different types of tax regimes around the world so that it can accommodate. It's a little bit rigid on that."

"Initially, we encountered challenges, particularly with users transitioning from their previous applications."

"The biggest problem with GP is that it's not cloud based and it doesn't lend itself to subscription licensing. But Microsoft wants everything in the cloud and licensed on a subscription basis.Even tThough GP can be deployed on a cloud server, but basically, it's a Windows based product. It uses the older model and companies purchase the program and pay a 16-18 sixteen- eighteen percent annual renewal fee but Microsoft wants everybody to pay monthly or annual renewal fees on a subscription basis."

"Many of our customers are migrating to the cloud rather than staying on-premises."

"There should also be extra redundancy when posting to modules. We use different sets of books such as CashBook and CheckBooks therefore if I select the wrong one the solution allows the transaction to just pass without warning."

"Scale is a primary concern. If the product vision continues to serve small and mid-cap companies, they need to continue incorporating features into the out-of-the-box solution because small-caps typically lack budget for in-house IT organizations to customize and maintain systems."

More Microsoft Dynamics GP cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The platform's pricing depends on the specific number of users."

"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."

"For on-premise installations, the licensing is yearly."

"As for pricing, I secured a favorable deal at around $80,000 yearly for five years, but it was a one-time opportunity."

"I feel it is not very cheap, very economical but also not very expensive."

"The pricing is not built on a standard model."

"It is a cost-effective solution."

"The product is expensive. I rate the pricing a five out of ten."

"I would say that the pricing is moderate, not cheap, and not expensive. There are many more expensive ERPs than GP, and there are less expensive as well, so it is moderately priced."

"For us, in our local currency, it costs us around 5 million Botswanan Pulas a year. It's quite a lot of money."

"I think the tool is competitively priced and it's more of a one-time investment with a low annual renewal fee."

"The solution's price is steep."

"It is an affordable solution."

"Its pricing and licensing are high. Of course, we all know that it is Microsoft."

"In comparison to other ERP systems, the pricing is not necessarily inexpensive, but it can be considered more cost-effective."

"We evaluated some local products, because of the pricing, but this product has better features and support."
