Infor Ln Manufacturing Consultant at a tech vendor with 51-200 employees
Cloud deployment has streamlined complex manufacturing projects and supports faster implementations
The workflow configuration, alert configuration, and report designing could be a bit easier. It is easy now, but it needs some technical guidance in terms of writing code, fixing it, and making it more flexible for users. The improvement needed in this area is around twenty percent. Seventy to eighty percent is user-friendly, but if Infor can put more energies into making this easier, that would be beneficial. Extensions and any customizations are also a bit technical. If they can make it a simple drag and drop, low code or no code method, it would be easier. Another area for improvement is AI integration. As we are in the AI era, Infor is putting energies into integrating AI within the application, but they are still in progress. If AI can be integrated so that customers or users can interact with it, that would be beneficial. If users want any information from the system or application, it should be a chat-based, user-friendly interaction so that they can get insights in real time. AI integration would add an advantage on a greater level, and Infor should focus on this improvement area.

Has shown limitations in digital capabilities but has supported key processes over time
JD Edwards World's real-time data analytics is very limited, and while it can be helpful, it is not the same as EnterpriseOne. I am currently using inventory management in JD Edwards World. I am satisfied with the security architecture in JD Edwards World; it is very easy and user-friendly. Even in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, it is very adaptable and you have role-based security without needing additional software. I am totally satisfied with the security part of JD Edwards World, but you must just know what you are doing. I am currently using on-premises JD Edwards World. My final mark for JD Edwards World is about five; I think it was good for when it lasted, quite a few years ago, but it is very outdated now. Therefore, the way to go is EnterpriseOne or cloud. For current usage, I would rate JD Edwards World maybe a five. My overall review rating for JD Edwards World is five out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Support for Core ERP is extremely good."
"It's fast, predicts well, and is basically the best tool in the market for the automotive industry and network planning projects."
"The product is highly scalable but setup is a bit complicated."
"Infor LN is compatible with our company size and is cost-effective compared to other ERP solutions like SAP."
"In terms of ease of use and product vision, Infor LN stands tall."
"Material planning and predictive planning are both essential aspects."
"With Infor LN, many of the processes have been streamlined because it has a central repository of all the data."
"The most valuable features of Infor LN include its production planning capabilities, its efficiency in running in the cloud, and its ability to handle multi-site, multi-logistic, and multi-finance operations."
"JD Edwards World is a good ERP with high security from the application design."
"It has worked fine for many years."
"A global system with a local presence and intercontinental communication, it provides us with a common language, product, and customer base."
"I think JDE ERP is very flexible and very convenient for the users. I think EnterpriseOne is more convenient for users to do the inquiry and do the data entry. The UI is better than JDE World. For JDE products, including the World version, is very flexible. It's a good product for clients."
"In my use cases, JD Edwards World offers flexibility in listing capabilities."
"Overall, its flexibility and technological capabilities make it very valuable for my customers."
"We've found the initial setup to be easy."
"We have been satisfied with how it works and how stable and reliable it is."
 

Cons

"We have not been satisfied with technical support at all."
"From a technical perspective, LN needs to work on customization and integration. It's fairly expensive for many clients to migrate from a customized private solution to the cloud. Infor needs to improve the cloud solution to make the migration from the on-prem customized solution faster and smoother. Otherwise, many clients will find it difficult or expensive to do."
"The tool is expensive. It needs to refine its planning details."
"The workflow configuration, alert configuration, and report designing could be a bit easier."
"In general, the HR-related part of Infor LN doesn't work properly in Germany, making it an area that requires improvement."
"The user interface needs improvement."
"Another point is the lack of user-friendly tools to create reports."
"I would like to see the CRM improved. I would also like to see a supply chain management feature."
"Update interface capabilities and data maintenance tools to modern standards."
"The integration technology could be stronger at this point."
"The flexibility and ability to integrate external applications are increasingly vital."
"Its end of life is already announced, so I don't expect lots of improvement coming from the product anywhere anymore."
"There are a lot of new technologies coming out and JD Edwards World could improve by having better integration with other databases. The integration with the databases and applications should be in real-time, such as with Oracle."
"There is no support from Oracle here. We only have third-party support."
"The user interface in JD Edwards World is very crude; I press a button to get to the application, unlike EnterpriseOne, which offers a more finished experience with dashboards."
"I have more than 18 years of JDE experience in JDE EnterpriseOne and World versions. I think JDE is good but compared to SAP and Oracle EPS, we can see which area needs to have some improvement for JDE."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing costs for this solution are payable annually. Standard licenses are available, but there is also the option to pay to add extra features."
"I would say that Infor's pricing is competitive compared to other ERP solutions available in the market, such as SAP and Oracle."
"Infor LN is a free solution, and everything is included in the package, such as add-ons."
"We have to pay a licensing fee for the solution."
"The tool’s AMC and support are given on a yearly basis. You need to make monthly payments for support."
"If you use Infor LN in Infor CloudSuite, there is a need to make an early payment for a license, which is approximately 2,500 EUR."
"Compared to other high-end ERP software, Infor LN's cost of ownership is lower. The difference isn't huge, though."
"The cost is somewhat high."
"The pricing for JD Edwards World could be more affordable."
"The price of JD Edwards World is reasonable. Since it is a legacy solution the price has been reduced."
"You have to pay for a license, and the license cost is calculated based on the number of users you have."
