Advanced forecasting and analysis capabilities
In terms of improvements, we can add new features that customers are demanding, such as service and quality improvements. For instance, we could have a model to predict the expected quality, which can be imported and developed as a new feature. We can improve quality features, and there is room for enhancement. Additionally, we can also improve service-related features by adding new functionalities. Each department has its workflow. But there is a hierarchy for pricing, and managers should be approached in such cases. So, there can be a more stabilized way of having a single point of contact to approach at any time. It is already there, but some more enhancements would be good. Regarding integration, specific third-party tools are not accepted, for example, on the old version of IBM or Oracle. Some more workloads need to be done to integrate those tools, and we can have some enhancements on integration. ION is a very good tool, and we use web services already. The old system of using RESTful APIs has been eradicated, and the super approval trial is good. So, this tool is a refined way of working with services where it integrates any third-party tool. But, some of the older versions may need additional adjustments to integrate properly.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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's environment—ION and Infor OS—is better than SAP's. The load time is shorter and Infor performs much better than SAP."
"The customization capabilities of CloudSuite Industrial are also there."
"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."
"It is a complete wave management system to increase processing efficiency."
"The product's most valuable feature is production planning. It is one of the core features."
"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."
"Oracle ERP Cloud is a stable solution."
"Oracle ERP Cloud is a well-established and well-known product that is cost-effective for the customer."
"I like that Oracle ERP Cloud has a lot of ready-to-use products, making it easy to adopt."
"The scalability is very good."
"It's easy to deploy, and we don't have to worry about upgrading anything."
"The main component is Oracle Financial. It is one of the most comprehensive financial solutions available on the market."
"I find that the overall framework and database structure is quite comprehensive."
"My company found the financial planning and budgeting modules of Oracle ERP Cloud more sophisticated and valuable than its other modules."
 

Cons

"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."
"It takes time to properly learn what the product can do."
"Planning needs to be improved. That is, industry-specific planning details need to be added and refined."
"Pricing is always an area where there is room for improvement."
"They could include marketing automation for the product."
"The platform's distribution features need enhancement."
"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."
"Currently, there are some challenges with handling large reports, possibly due to setup limits or issues with the solution."
"Oracle can make the system more stable which includes some changes as some of the use cases were not available in Oracle's systems and the element’s value needed to be defined."
"Localization of functionality for Europe and Latin American countries legal and fiscal requirements, reporting, and integration with tax authorities."
"The solution should implement improvements with AI technology. Specifically, in the realm of ERP tools, this can be particularly beneficial, not only for cloud-based systems but for all types of tools. Additionally, a highly desirable feature is the ability to work offline."
"Improve support services in the new features roadmap."
"We have had concerns about the security and flexibility of the application. The approach with Oracle ERP Cloud should be more holistic rather than user or computer-based."
"Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP's interface needs to be improved."
"Technical support is good, however, sometimes we do need to wait for an answer."
"The database is outdated and quite rigid."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is not built on a standard model."
"It is a cost-effective solution."
"The product is expensive. I rate the pricing a five out of ten."
"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."
"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 on-premise installations, the licensing is yearly."
"The price is average compared to other vendors. The licensing is on a yearly basis depending on the subscription pattern. There are no extra costs apart from licensing."
"The solution is moderately priced, where it is neither expensive nor cheap."
"The solution's pricing is reasonable in the global market"
"Oracle ERP Cloud is on the expensive side."
"In a developing country such as Bangladesh, Oracle ERP Cloud is expensive compared to on-premise solutions, so the turnover is very low. Customers become more comfortable using on-premise services because of the high subscription costs of Oracle ERP Cloud."
"The price of the solution is expensive. There are additional costs associated with this particular case that must be taken into consideration when calculating the overall expense. These costs may include but are not limited to, additional materials, labor, and other miscellaneous expenses that may arise during the course of the project. It is important to note that these additional costs may exceed the initial pricing estimate."
"The pricing for Oracle ERP Cloud is on par with other top solutions."
"For an ERP Cloud, the pricing is relatively high."
