S Solomon Kumar - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
VS
Enables comprehensive employee lifecycle management and supports seamless decision-making with a focus on improving data center availability
The SAP SuccessFactors HCM has room for improvement in terms of product development nimbleness. Additionally, the speed of the application platform occasionally reduces, primarily due to data center related issues. I believe SAP does not have a data center for SuccessFactors in India, as India is mostly serviced by Australia. They should establish data centers in India for improved availability and turnaround times.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product's most valuable feature is production planning. It is one of the core features."
"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."
"It is a complete wave management system to increase processing efficiency."
"It is a very scalable solution."
"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."
"Some valuable features include improved transparency in sales processes, which has been vital for our operations."
"The customization capabilities of CloudSuite Industrial are also there."
"The SAP SuccessFactors HCM tool is a fantastic platform to work with, offering end-to-end employee lifecycle coverage."
 

Cons

"Currently, there are some challenges with handling large reports, possibly due to setup limits or issues with the solution."
"For the quality department, there is a module called quality, and I feel it has to be a little bit simplified."
"The price of the solution is not good."
"They could include marketing automation for the product."
"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."
"The platform's distribution features need enhancement."
"Planning needs to be improved. That is, industry-specific planning details need to be added and refined."
"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."
"The SAP SuccessFactors HCM has room for improvement in terms of product development nimbleness. Additionally, the speed of the application platform occasionally reduces, primarily due to data center related issues."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is a cost-effective solution."
"I feel it is not very cheap, very economical but also not very expensive."
"The product is expensive. I rate the pricing a five out of ten."
"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."
"As for pricing, I secured a favorable deal at around $80,000 yearly for five years, but it was a one-time opportunity."
"For on-premise installations, the licensing is yearly."
"The pricing is not built on a standard model."
