"It is a scalable solution."
"We did some research and chose CloudSuite because it has the flexibility to cover a range of areas. And there were many other factors like traceability, for example, which is crucial for food production."
"The product's most valuable feature is production planning. It is one of the core features."
"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."
"Infor's environment—ION and Infor OS—is better than SAP's. The load time is shorter and Infor performs much better than SAP."
"Infor CloudSuite Industrial is easy to setup. The built-in solution is already there, so we can start implementing it right away when we install it in an organization. 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."
"From a product perspective, it's more lenient and suitable for using features in finance, such as reconciling our payments, accounts payable, accounts receivable, etc."
"Technical support is good."
"The solution is good for small businesses."
"The GL and FAH modules have become real-deal players for an organization with many legacy systems that handle transactions and where there is a need to create accounting from these transactions."
"The most valuable feature is its flexibility."
"E-Business Suite's best features are BAT functionality, flexibility, configurability, and integration with Oracle Database."
"Its drag-and-drop features make data distribution a breeze."
"As we have been using this for the past nine years we have had the opportunity to explore the product. Really everything has worked well and all the modules are very good."
"It was easy to set up the product."
"Planning needs to be improved. That is, industry-specific planning details need to be added and refined."
"The solution's support service could be better."
"There should be better clarity and agreement on all interfaces and requirements before signing a contract. This would avoid unexpected costs and complications later on."
"Regarding integration, specific third-party tools are not accepted, for example, on the old version of IBM or Oracle."
"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."
"Pricing is always an area where there is room for improvement."
"The platform's distribution features need enhancement."
"Currently, there are some challenges with handling large reports, possibly due to setup limits or issues with the solution."
"The operations could be better, specifically for manufacturing processes."
"Movement to the cloud should be supported. Product support still needs to be improved."
"The way things are going, Oracle is not putting much effort into their master data management. They need to look into machine data and then the integrated data domain."
"We don't like Oracle EBS because it is very old. Nowadays, all the systems are on the cloud and web-based. With Oracle EBS, you need a huge setup before installing it. You need a lot of servers. There are a lot of problems and bugs in the system. We have to move from Oracle EBS to another system. In terms of improvements, it can have better training for end users and better support."
"Sometimes I have issues with the performance tuning."
"One issue with the product is because it build on a lot of older technologies, there is a substantial technical debt in the system."
"Administration takes some effort. Administrating the technology stack is not so complex but application aware database administration and following the new methodologies like online patching can be a little complex and time consuming. Oracle should ease the administrators jobs and do some innovation on this administration area as well. Oracle Autonomous Database is Oracle's leading technology these days. Using a similar approach, application stack may become a little more self-managing."
"The implementation took a long time but it was for many reasons. However, Oracle made sure that the solution and systems were up and running."
