Cons
"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.""Infor's support side is not that good, and they seem to be focusing on other products above LX.""The connectors, performance, and knowledgebase availability can be improved."

More Infor LX Cons →

"Odoo's automation and workflow design tools could be better. It has some limitations compared to other ERP solutions like SAP. You should have the option to design workflows in order using BPM diagrams and tools that make it more versatile in terms of adapting to any workflow through low code.""The tool needs to improve its scalability.""The range of choices and functionalities has space for enhancement.""The solution's reporting could be improved.""Odoo can invest in improvements, considering areas like AI and ML, where there are shortcomings.""It's too early to make a definitive statement about Odoo as we are currently in the implementation stages. Once the implementation is complete and the system is up and running, we'll be able to provide feedback on its effectiveness and suitability for our needs. The implementation is very straightforward, and the system is easy to operate, similar to working with a spreadsheet. If there's one thing that could significantly enhance the system, it would be incorporating more AI capabilities.""Odoo lacks a complete dashboard, and the reports are basic. The reporting could be improved by adding some graphics.""The customization and technical support are not great."
