Featured Reviews

Eugenio Santos - PeerSpot reviewer
Program adapts to our requirements and handles our operations effectively
The interface we use currently needs enhancement, as I am still using the outdated green screens. I would benefit for us to adpot the latest INFOR user interface, which is a more integrated interface. Additionally, improvements in warehouse handling with handheld terminal, quality management in warehouses, and managing a dual sourcing strategy would be beneficial. I have had to build my own applications for some features that are lacking, and aligning all components for uncertainty management in the market is necessary.
Antonio Lira - PeerSpot reviewer
Seamless subsidiary operation visibility with efficient accounting consolidation
One of the most valuable features that I appreciate is the ability to consolidate operations across subsidiaries, which makes accounting consolidation great. The multicurrency reevaluation offered by OneWorld enables consolidation from different branches, such as country or continent levels, making it a powerful feature. Additionally, there is visibility into all operations within the subsidiaries, facilitating awareness of sales, purchases, and manufacturing activities.

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

Pros

"Infor LX is effective for planning, manufacturing, and distribution processes."
"Infor LX has improved my customers' manufacturing processes by creating a standard in the process, which improves performance in manufacturing as well as finance, distribution, and supply chain."
"Infor LX's most valuable feature is that it's very interactive."
"One of the major advantages of Infor LX is the stability of the program."
"I've been using it since December 2009, and it has been absolutely stable till now."
"One of the things I love about Infor LX is that everything is integrated."
"The most important feature of Infor LX for me is the use of models for accounting, which create effects in different layers simultaneously."
"Infor LX is effective for planning, manufacturing, and distribution processes."
"The executive dashboards have satisfied the founders and leadership with up to the minute information. This allows them to make high level decisions."
"Inventory management in NetSuite OneWorld is one of the best in the industry, so this feature is what I like most about the solution."
"NetSuite OneWorld, the consolidation feature has been incredibly valuable. However, I cannot speak to the full range of features and functionalities offered by OneWorld as I am not familiar with all of them. I have utilized OneWorld primarily in the biotech industry, with a focus on operating expenses and financial reporting, such as capital contributions and foreign currency adjustments. I am confident, however, that OneWorld offers a robust module for reporting and consolidating revenue, though I have not had the opportunity to directly utilize this aspect of the software."
"Utilizes best practices that are simple to implement."
"We've set up Jira integration and used robotic process automation (RPA) to streamline various processes, like procurement and invoicing. Some processes still require manual approval, like supplier invoices, but we're simplifying those too. We're also exploring integrating with other tools like Power BI for better data analytics and reporting. Currently, our automation focuses on general tasks, not document understanding or anything complex like that."
"I rate the OneWorld overall solution as a ten out of ten."
"One of the most valuable features that I appreciate is the ability to consolidate operations across subsidiaries, which makes accounting consolidation great."
"NetSuite is a great solution, fast to bring up and makes everyone's life easier."
 

Cons

"It lacks in finance and administration, especially related to Italian accounting."
"Infor's support side is not that good, and they seem to be focusing on other products above LX."
"The interface needs enhancement, as I am still using outdated screens."
"Infor needs more APIs, as in the current version, APIs are not fully developed."
"The interface needs enhancement, as I am still using outdated screens. I would benefit from a more integrated interface."
"The connectors, performance, and knowledgebase availability can be improved."
"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."
"NetSuite OneWorld, the consolidation feature has been incredibly valuable. However, I cannot speak to the full range of features and functionalities offered by OneWorld as I am not familiar with all of them. I have utilized OneWorld primarily in the biotech industry, with a focus on operating expenses and financial reporting, such as capital contributions and foreign currency adjustments. I am confident, however, that OneWorld offers a robust module for reporting and consolidating revenue, though I have not had the opportunity to directly utilize this aspect of the software."
"Some entities are not available for multiple subsidiaries, which requires duplication."
"I hope NetSuite OneWorld introduces features like support for different pricing models, including packaging options, and improved production planning tools in the future."
"Project collaboration through Dashboard Business Management and Relations Management is easy to perform, but it does need to be worked on as it is difficult for customers, suppliers, and internal users to use."
"In NetSuite OneWorld, what needs improvement is the production planning functionality."
"The Project Management User Interface is lacking."
"The solution could improve by having more integration."
"Needs time entry for billable employees."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Infor LX is not cheap but much cheaper compared to SAP HANA."
"Pricing is variable due to different deals and discounts, typically starting at around $2000 US dollars for one license."
"Our last maintenance fee was around $15,000 a year for 33 current users."
"NetSuite OneWorld has fair pricing. It was not very expensive, so price-wise, I'm rating it as five out of ten."
"​Good solution for the price, but hire a skilled project manager to handle the technical setup.​"
"I would rate the pricing of the solution somewhere around six or seven out of ten. I don’t like the SaaS models. Of course, they make the tool powerful enough to run a billion-dollar business. The tool is cheaper than SAP or Cor"
"NetSuite offers a great many advantages, including a cost of about third of the traditional pharma manufacturing ERP packages."
"The tool is an expensive cloud application. It charges per license. We pay around 50 euros per month for a full user, and for 70 users, we pay around 120,000 euros per year. Maintenance and support are included in the full cloud license."
"Do not try to go it alone. Get a consultant who has been there and listens."
"Measure twice, cut once."
"NetSuite OneWorld tends to be pricey. The decision to allocate a budget for this solution ultimately rests with the management and negotiating team, and I am not typically included in these discussions. Nonetheless, the information I've received leads me to believe that it is a costly platform. There are not any additional costs that I am aware of."
