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.
Mahmoud Paridehpour - PeerSpot reviewer
VP of Ecommerce & Information Systems at Four Seasons General Merchandise
Offers extensive features for efficient operations in small to midsize businesses
The solution is very good. However, for very small companies, maybe a cloud service is better. Other software like QuickBooks may work well if you do not have many employees and require simple invoicing and inventory. This software, though, is a bit more advanced compared to QuickBooks, offering flexibility, multi-user capability, and options for application development. It connects directly to the database for reporting or external systems, which is beneficial for companies needing more advanced features. However, if I need a very complex system, Sage might not be suitable. Overall, I would rate this product an eight 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

"With multi-site support and advanced reporting, Infor LN services are the best."
"The most valuable features are manufacturing, and manufacturing costing modules. These are all powerful features of Infor LN."
"Most of them who use Infor LN have add-ons connected to ERP. It's either a supplier exchange, or they've got sales problems that are integrated with it."
"The solution has helped a lot in the sense of consolidation and in providing us with real-time information."
"Material planning and predictive planning are both essential aspects."
"The project module is the best that I've ever seen, and more than that, it's the company's flexibility to change. It means that in our company, Infor LN has the capability to support many kinds of industries."
"It's fast, predicts well, and is basically the best tool in the market for the automotive industry and network planning projects."
"The most valuable feature is its ability to handle products with up to 2,500 components, making it valuable for streamlining complex business operations."
"The technical support is very good."
"For me, it is a ten because I did not have any problems or issues."
"Regarding the cost, it is cheap. I pay a one-time fee instead of a monthly license fee per user."
"The product provides consistent updates and upgrades."

Cons

"The user interface is not very intuitive for newer users."
"The freight management module is a bit complex and can be improved."
"Q/A of the product is not up to expectations Users are forced to test the software during implementation"
"Another point is the lack of user-friendly tools to create reports."
"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 user interface of Infor LN is not very user-friendly."
"The user interface needs to be improved."
"The finance model within this solution does not have very strong reporting functionality, which I would like to see improved."

"We're definitely looking at a new system because everything in this product needs improving."
"The vendor stopped supporting the solution on the Linux platform."

"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."
