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.

Customer satisfaction and data integration shine in multinational consolidations
The best features of OneStream XF are threefold. The first is Extensible Dimensionality, which allows for different levels of detail depending on the task. When budgeting for 2026, Extensible Dimensionality enables detailed breakdowns of supplies into specific items such as printer paper and magic markers. When actuals arrive, that level of detail isn't necessary. This flexibility in collecting and reporting data is a significant advantage. OneStream XF is advantageous because it provides one product that can do everything. Users do not have to purchase separate products for consolidation, planning, and reporting, which saves time and money in training and setup. OneStream XF shows a strong commitment to customer success. While 100% satisfaction is unrealistic, OneStream XF puts in substantial effort to ensure clients are successful, which contrasts sharply with experiences from companies such as SAP. OneStream XF's data integration capabilities with ERP and HCM systems are excellent, thanks to its history. The founders of OneStream XF were the creators of Upstream, which specialized in data integration. When they developed OneStream XF, they implemented that expertise, making it excel at data integration.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. 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."
"Infor's environment—ION and Infor OS—is better than SAP's. The load time is shorter and Infor performs much better than SAP."
"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."
"It is a scalable solution."
"Some valuable features include improved transparency in sales processes, which has been vital for our operations."
"It is a complete wave management system to increase processing efficiency."
"The customization capabilities of CloudSuite Industrial are also there."
"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."
"We were with Oracle previously. With Oracle, you have to buy a different piece of software for every business process. If you want to do budgeting, that's a product. If you want to do consolidation, that's a product. If you want to do BI type of work, that's yet another product. So, you end up buying a lot of software from Oracle. With OneStream, it is a little different. It is a platform where you can do all those things, and you can do them with just one software purchase and then you just pay for users on it."
"The product's most valuable feature is extensibility."
"OneStream XF's unified structure makes it easier for our financial consolidation and planning processes, though I would say we have a standardized way of using it and not that much forward-looking."
"It offers great ease of use. This impacts not only the end-user experience but also the administrator's, which affects the total cost of ownership."
"With OneStream, it is a little different; it is a platform where you can do all those things, and you can do them with just one software purchase and then you just pay for users on it."
"OneStream XF is advantageous because it provides one product that can do everything; users do not have to purchase separate products for consolidation, planning, and reporting, which saves time and money in training and setup."
 

Cons

"Currently, there are some challenges with handling large reports, possibly due to setup limits or issues with the solution."
"It required more time than I had with it to learn it well enough."
"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."
"Infor OS is powerful, but the documentation is terrible."
"The price of the solution is not good."
"The disadvantages of Infor CloudSuite are related to Absence Management. There are too many setups for users to establish absence plans, formulas, and calculations."
"In Germany, there aren't enough IT specialists for customization and software development, causing projects to take too long."
"AI is where I see the most innovation and progress, but it's not fully developed yet."
"It's okay for collecting information and setting it up, but for business support, we don't get much from it."
"We should be able to download the data in the same format we upload it."
"There are longstanding challenges with OneStream XF, particularly around the technical aspects that require scripting skills, typically managed by finance departments."
"Currently, they only support one browser, and it would be good if you could use it on Chrome, Firefox, etc. It is a little frustrating that you can only use a certain Microsoft browser. They're pretty tightly aligned with Microsoft. So, I can see the reasons for it."
"Currently, they only support one browser, and it would be good if you could use it on Chrome, Firefox, etc. It is a little frustrating that you can only use a certain Microsoft browser."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"As for pricing, I secured a favorable deal at around $80,000 yearly for five years, but it was a one-time opportunity."
"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."
"The platform's pricing depends on the specific number of users."
"The product is expensive. I rate the pricing a five out of ten."
"It is a cost-effective solution."
"I feel it is not very cheap, very economical but also not very expensive."
"For on-premise installations, the licensing is yearly."
"The pricing is not built on a standard model."
"They price it by the user. Before discounting, it is 2,500 or something like that."
"The licensing is expensive."
"The product has a license by the user. They're on par with other competitors."
