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.

Allows us to do product collaboration, PPM, and PQM, but it isn't scalable and can't support BOM management if we have thousands of parts
It's not scalable. It can't support BOM management if we have thousands of parts. That's one of the biggest limitations. Relationship management should support large data. The workflow engine also needs improvement. It should support complex workflows. There are things with patch management that should be better. There are hundreds of other things that we logged with them but never got implemented. The cloud version isn't very powerful, so it doesn't support parallel workflow. It just supports the serial flow. The stability and technical support could also be improved.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"Some valuable features include improved transparency in sales processes, which has been vital for our operations."
"Infor CloudSuite offers a comprehensive solution with integrated business intelligence and artificial intelligence capabilities."
"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."
"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."
"It offers a facility to get data quickly."
"The customization capabilities of CloudSuite Industrial are also there."
"Multiple file manager support helps to resolve key performance issues with file download and upload."
"We use this solution for product collaboration. We also use it for PPM and PQM."
 

Cons

"They could include marketing automation for the product."
"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."
"The price of the solution is not good."
"The platform's distribution features need enhancement."
"Pricing is always an area where there is room for improvement."
"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."
"Planning needs to be improved. That is, industry-specific planning details need to be added and refined."
"It's not scalable. It can't support BOM management if we have thousands of parts. That's one of the biggest limitations. Relationship management should support large data."
"The Oracle Agile PLM disaster recovery solution is complex, and there is a lot of manual work involved when switching to the DR site."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is a cost-effective solution."
"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."
"The product is expensive. I rate the pricing a five out of ten."
"The pricing is not built on a standard model."
"For on-premise installations, the licensing is yearly."
"I feel it is not very cheap, very economical but also not very expensive."
"As for pricing, I secured a favorable deal at around $80,000 yearly for five years, but it was a one-time opportunity."
"The licensing policy isn't good. We had trouble with it. That's why we're looking at a new cloud-based solution."
