reviewer2149446 - PeerSpot reviewer
IT Director at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
Consistent optimization of production and efficient procurement processes improve operational effectiveness
I am working as an IT Director at Istituto De Angeli, which is a company of Fareva. FAREVA is a leading global contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) specializing in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, makeup, and home and industrial care products. I have worked with the traceability and audit features in Infor LX, including the electronic signature module, which is essential in the pharmaceutical industry. The electronic signature is a key component of compliance for our ERP. This is crucial for periodic inspections we receive from authorities, including European authorities, Italian AIFA, USA FDA and other Pharma Agencies and Ministry world wide. On a scale of 1-10, I rate Infor LX a 9.
Antonio Lira - PeerSpot reviewer
Territory Manager LATAM at LeaseWeb
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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Infor LX's most valuable feature is that it's very interactive."
"The most valuable features are the exit points that enable integration with external software."
"Infor LX is effective for planning, manufacturing, and distribution processes."
"This solution has brought structure and shape to our day-to-day operations."
"One of the major advantages of Infor LX is the stability of the program."
"Mainly for manufacturing and processing, everything is excellent."
"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 has helped us in conducting efficient production planning, streamlining procurement processes, and maintaining a reliable source of information for our vendors and procurement purchase orders."
"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."
"The executive dashboards have satisfied the founders and leadership with up to the minute information. This allows them to make high level decisions."
"The ability to customize it to create custom fields that are reportable, and then to be able to write script behind it to automate other processes that might otherwise be manual is great."
"NetSuite is a great solution, fast to bring up and makes everyone's life easier."
"Inventory management in NetSuite OneWorld is one of the best in the industry, so this feature is what I like most about the solution."
"Basic accounting and finance: order to cash, procure to pay, and reporting."
"Overall, it is a great product for someone who wants to have a single system that handles all aspects of the business and does a great job making information visible across the company."
"We've been extremely happy with the solution."
 

Cons

"It lacks in finance and administration, especially related to Italian accounting."
"The user interface of Infor LX needs significant enhancement to be more user-friendly."
"Infor's support side is not that good, and they seem to be focusing on other products above LX."
"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."
"Infor has now stopped and drastically reduced investing in this product."
"Infor needs more APIs, as in the current version, APIs are not fully developed. The development of APIs must be enhanced, especially for AS400."
"The connectors, performance, and knowledgebase availability can be improved."
"The interface needs enhancement, as I am still using outdated screens. I would benefit from a more integrated interface."
"There is not a 20 year pedigree of pharma experience in the NetSuite channel. While there are many of these CMO Pharma companies rapidly moving to NetSuite, there are few consultants with true pharma experience. Those who have experience are stretched pretty thin."
"Currently, NetSuite OneWorld needs to be more mature, especially compared to SAP."
"The solution could improve by having more integration."
"There is not a 20 year pedigree of pharma experience in the NetSuite channel."
"Needs time entry for billable employees."
"Does not support large number of locations without performance issues. Locations above 25 and up to 100 require special permission, and this has slowed down performance."
"In NetSuite OneWorld, what needs improvement is the production planning functionality."
"Some entities are not available for multiple subsidiaries, which requires duplication."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Our last maintenance fee was around $15,000 a year for 33 current users."
"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."
"NetSuite OneWorld has fair pricing. It was not very expensive, so price-wise, I'm rating it as five out of ten."
"Consider the roles of the employees who will use NetSuite and identify any groups who will only utilize the employee center. These licenses are cheaper and will reduce costs significantly."
"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"
"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."
"NetSuite OneWorld is much less expensive for a very small to medium-sized business. Still, when you grow into an enterprise-level company, the price increases, but as long as you plan and know that going in, it's manageable."
"Do not try to go it alone. Get a consultant who has been there and listens."
"Measure twice, cut once."
"NetSuite offers a great many advantages, including a cost of about third of the traditional pharma manufacturing ERP packages."
