SAP ERP did provide value for money.
Technical support from Infor is rated an eight out of ten.
Here in Portugal, there's no direct support from Infor.

I have more experience with highly scalable technologies like Databricks.
It is scalable when moving from one version to another or adding additional components like warehouse management.

The system is very stable.
Production processes would be on hold without stability, so it is quite important that the software is very stable.
Stability-wise, SAP ERP is the best product among others.
In Germany, there aren't enough IT specialists for customization and software development, causing projects to take too long.
In Europe, it's difficult to find people who already know Infor, which was a problem during implementation.
We are moving to the cloud and are looking at the cloud version of it for the cost of ownership and a more modernized integrated platform.
While Oracle has introduced the command center and ECC dashboard, the ECC still has very limited features and functionality.
I should be able to customize the screen or application without needing technical support.
Features that allow transactions based on barcoding should be part of the ERP component.
We are using version 6.0 and it meets our needs.

Reviews from Real Users:
Kopano R., Freelancer at a tech services company, says, “What I found most valuable in Oracle E-Business Suite is the patching because it is straightforward. As long as you follow Oracle's best practices, you are able to finish the task of patching without a problem. I like that it's also easy to add products, e.g. if you want to add on financials, you can, or if you don't have financials, you can expand on that. I like that Oracle E-Business Suite is really scalable.”

We are using most of the Oracle financial modules, and we have an Oracle stream, FI procurement stream, and HR streams, which have a lot of applications. Oracle E-Business Suite has over 20 different modules to choose from, it is comprehensive. Additionally, the integration is very good. “
