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.""One of the things I love about Infor LX is that everything is integrated.""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."

More Infor LX Pros →

"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.""Allows us to use it the way we need to instead of changing our needs and processes to fit the product.""Inventory management in NetSuite OneWorld is one of the best in the industry, so this feature is what I like most about the solution.""The solution is user-friendly and flexible.""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.""The executive dashboards have satisfied the founders and leadership with up to the minute information. This allows them to make high level decisions.""Lowers costs, produces higher efficiencies, while maintaining a leaner staff and produces advanced financials."

Cons
"Infor's support side is not that good, and they seem to be focusing on other products above LX.""It lacks in finance and administration, especially related to Italian accounting.""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."

More Infor LX Cons →

"In NetSuite OneWorld, what needs improvement is the production planning functionality.""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.""The solution could improve by having more integration.""Certain analytics features are missing that I've come to expect from other systems. Additionally, there are occasional issues with data accuracy that need to be addressed. Overall, deeper analytics capabilities would greatly improve the tool's usefulness for me.""Some entities are not available for multiple subsidiaries, which requires duplication.""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.""Currently, NetSuite OneWorld needs to be more mature, especially compared to SAP.""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."

  • More Infor LX Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "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."
  • "Measure twice, cut once."
  • "​Good solution for the price, but hire a skilled project manager to handle the technical setup.​"
  • "Do not try to go it alone. Get a consultant who has been there and listens."
  • "NetSuite offers a great many advantages, including a cost of about third of the traditional pharma manufacturing ERP packages."
  • "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."
  • "NetSuite OneWorld has fair pricing. It was not very expensive, so price-wise, I'm rating it as five out of ten."
  • "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."
