Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""Some valuable features include improved transparency in sales processes, which has been vital for our operations.""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.""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.""It is a scalable 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."

"The technical support is very good.""The product provides consistent updates and upgrades."

More Sage MAS Pros →

Every couple of years SAP upgrades ABAP technology significantly, which facilitates developers' work.""The solution provides a high level of integration."

Cons
"Currently, there are some challenges with handling large reports, possibly due to setup limits or issues with the solution.""Pricing is always an area where there is room for improvement.""The solution's support service could be better.""Regarding integration, specific third-party tools are not accepted, for example, on the old version of IBM or Oracle.""The platform's distribution features need enhancement.""Planning needs to be improved. That is, industry-specific planning details need to be added and refined.""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.""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."

More Infor CloudSuite Industrial Cons →

"The vendor stopped supporting the solution on the Linux platform.""We're definitely looking at a new system because everything in this product needs improving."

More Sage MAS Cons →

"It would also help if it were more open, more flexible, with more standard products.""The product can be a little slow when dealing with thousands of employee data.""I would like to see more integration with other partners. Some of our customers already use specific or in-house applications for their business processes. They do not want to replace those applications.""The only feature that is not available in our current version is web access.""Functionality could be improved.""I believe there's room for improvement in terms of user experience.""Presently, the solution's interface is not intuitive.""It needs to incorporate the new features from the SAP S/4HANA release, such as, utilizing data processes, which is quite nice."

Pricing and Cost Advice

  • "It is a cost-effective solution."
  • "The platform's pricing depends on the specific number of users."
  • "As for pricing, I secured a favorable deal at around $80,000 yearly for five years, but it was a one-time opportunity."
