Featured Reviews

Dietmar Müller - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides integrated solutions for international business operations
Infor CloudSuite offers a comprehensive solution with integrated business intelligence and artificial intelligence capabilities. It does not require hardware or extensive IT expertise, which are standard advantages for cloud solutions. Its integration capabilities with Microsoft features are notable. Additionally, it is a highly scalable and stable solution, useful for large enterprises engaged in international business. It is also easy to maintain compared to other ERP solutions.
Firaz Mohammed - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers great integration capabilities and allows just the real-time inventory
Dynamics GP improves inventory management by offering real-time inventory tracking, and automated purchase order creation, receiving, and updating inventory levels. It facilitates site-to-site transfers and allocation tracking, enabling efficient stock management across locations. The integration capability of Dynamics GP, combined with Power Platform, has transformed our business processes. We now use PowerApps to enable salesmen to send orders electronically, eliminating the need for order books. Additionally, we developed HR apps to streamline tasks for our staff, leading to automated processes and improved efficiency. Our experience with Dynamics GP reporting and analytics features, particularly Advanced Analysis, has been great. We utilize customized smart lists for purchasing and other functions, allowing for tailored insights over specific periods. Additionally, we have developed custom dashboards for enhanced visibility and support portal integration. I wouldn't recommend Dynamics GP due to its legacy status and impending end of support. However, if integration with the Power Platform is crucial and the company prioritizes modernization, it could still be a viable option. For new companies, I would suggest considering Dynamics 365 Business Central for a more modern solution. Overall, I would rate Dynamics GP as a seven out of ten.

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."
"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."
"The customization capabilities of CloudSuite Industrial are also there."
"It is a very scalable solution."
"It is a scalable solution."
"Infor CloudSuite offers a comprehensive solution with integrated business intelligence and artificial intelligence capabilities."
"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 solution is easy to use."
"It is strong in integration."
"You can track everything from beginning to end quite easily."
"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."
"Snowflake's ability to handle large queries efficiently is very beneficial, unlike other databases which can take a significant amount of time for similar tasks."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to easily update and maintain accurate data across all aspects of our operations."
"Microsoft Dynamics GP has supported our compliance with industry regulations completely."
"The solution is easy to use and not complicated. Also, it is easy to get trained on. Also, there is good information available on the web. The GP community is quite broad and there are many blogs online."
 

Cons

"Planning needs to be improved. That is, industry-specific planning details need to be added and refined."
"They could include marketing automation for the product."
"The solution's support service could be better."
"The price of the solution is not good. In Europe, it's difficult to find people who already know Infor, which was a problem during implementation."
"In Germany, there aren't enough IT specialists for customization and software development, causing projects to take too long."
"Pricing is always an area where there is room for improvement."
"Regarding integration, specific third-party tools are not accepted, for example, on the old version of IBM or Oracle."
"The price of the solution is not good."
"As technology changes, I would say probably in the area of chart up account needs improvement because chart up account is a string. So if they make it more flexible."
"Initially, we encountered challenges, particularly with users transitioning from their previous applications."
"It requires a lot of expertise to implement."
"Dynamics GP could be improved in terms of its usability and modernization."
"Many of our customers are migrating to the cloud rather than staying on-premises."
"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."
"The purchase order and processing aspects of the solution should be improved."
"I would rate technical support for Microsoft Dynamics GP on a scale of 1 to 10 as six or five maximum."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"For on-premise installations, the licensing is yearly."
"The platform's pricing depends on the specific number of users."
"I feel it is not very cheap, very economical but also not very expensive."
"The pricing is not built on a standard model."
"As for pricing, I secured a favorable deal at around $80,000 yearly for five years, but it was a one-time opportunity."
"The product is expensive. I rate the pricing a five out of ten."
"It is a cost-effective solution."
"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 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."
"It is an affordable solution."
"​We evaluated some local products, because of the pricing, but this product has better features and support."
"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."
"The solution's price is steep."
"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."
