Featured Reviews

HareshSuralia - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior lead consultant at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Manufacturing planning has become efficient and supports integrated shop floor and quality control
For manufacturing, Infor LX is very strong on the MRP side with MRP and MPS capabilities, and even shop floor functionality. The platform has quality control features, and there are many additional features available. There is also integration with finance. Overall, for manufacturing, it is very good. There are many modules that have been implemented including inbound, outbound, and logistics. Primarily for manufacturing and the processing side, everything is excellent. It's a solid, proven product. Infor LX's material planning feature is quite a flexible solution.
Euan Ellis - PeerSpot reviewer
Director of IT Applications at a manufacturing company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Has supported global operations through multi-currency and modular customization
Oracle's support is not that good for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne. Their support is expensive, and I don't think you're getting your bang for your buck. For the cloud product, they do give you support, but everything is online and you might not get somebody. I would give Oracle's support for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne about a 6.5 on a scale of one to 10.

Cons

"From a supporting point of view, Infor LX is not quite what I see with SAP and other areas."
"The user interface of Infor LX needs significant enhancement to be more user-friendly."
"It's based on AS/400 or Power i, a robust technology and platform. However, it is harder to manage admin most of the time."
"The connectors, performance, and knowledgebase availability can be improved."
"Infor needs more APIs, as in the current version, APIs are not fully developed. The development of APIs must be enhanced, especially for AS400."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Infor LX is not cheap but much cheaper compared to SAP HANA."
"Our last maintenance fee was around $15,000 a year for 33 current users."
"Pricing is variable due to different deals and discounts, typically starting at around $2000 US dollars for one license."

"The price of the solution is not cheap. However, it is priced average amongst competitors."
"The solution's pricing depends on the deal and the number of users."
"It depends on the number of users and the modules that you want to buy. It is licensed on a perpetual license basis. You buy the license costs upfront, and then there is maintenance for support that you pay every year, which is typically about 20%."
"JD Edwards EnterpriseOne has a lot of value for the money. The implementation cost and license cost are quite reasonable compared to other solutions, such as Oracle EBS or SAP."
"The maintenance of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is expensive and overall the solution is expensive. Most enterprise operation solution is expensive."
