Featured Reviews

Jarod Dwi - PeerSpot reviewer
ERP integration transforms automation and financial reporting with good support
I use the solution for the manufacturing process, finance, supply chains, and quality It integrates with robotic processing and automation, enhancing our process automation. It also integrates with the PLC system using Mitsubishi and with the MIS software. The solution covers all modules,…
Tapas Karmakar - PeerSpot reviewer
Integration capabilities and reporting functions enhance workflow efficiency
The primary issue I have observed is that when JD Edwards World is installed, it involves a shared architecture between the development, test, and production environments. This setup should be avoided. Additionally, Oracle should integrate some AI features into JD Edwards World but not rely entirely on AI due to potential disadvantages, such as increased electricity consumption impacting global warming. Improvements are also needed in tech support, specifically in response time and quality.

Cons

"Our version of Infor LN is quite old, and we have discussed upgrading."
"When it comes to planning, it's more challenging to consider the entire structure, such as having a specific SKU and wanting to look at the planning for the whole structure. You must delve into individual item details to plan for it with order planning. Therefore, improvements will allow more comprehensive planning for each SKU."
"The user interface needs improvement. They should add more automation to reduce the number of clicks per operation."
"It's not that intuitive."
"The solution’s performance could be improved."
"The training for Infor LN is not straightforward, so a non-specialist will need training before using it."
"While Infor LN incorporates the latest business processes and functions, there is always room for improvement as the business grows. In the new normal, it could stand to incorporate quite a few automation processes like the RPA and utilize machine learning in the Internet of Things."
"Only people who undergo training from the companies can learn about Infor products."
"Its end of life is already announced, so I don't expect lots of improvement coming from the product anywhere anymore."
"The integration technology could be stronger at this point."

"Improvements are needed in transitioning JD Edwards World to a more stable and reliable cloud product, particularly in terms of GDPR and data privacy compliance."
"The flexibility and ability to integrate external applications are increasingly vital."
"The technical support from Oracle needs a lot of improvement. Both the response time and quality of support require enhancement."
"Update interface capabilities and data maintenance tools to modern standards."
"There is no support from Oracle here. We only have third-party support."
