We performed a comparison between Infor M3 and NetSuite ERP based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Activity Based Costing Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature of Infor M3 is the level of detail it has about the different manufacturing processes compared to other ERP solutions. Other ERP solutions provide the same level of integration as Infor M3, but Infor M3 specializes in several functions, such as planning and manufacturing."
"It's very stable, and it handles all types of industrial and manufacturing businesses in very good ways. I've found it to be easy."
"The user interface and user experience were good."
"Infor comes up with different tools every year, and they are all compatible with Infor M3, which makes it a more reliable and trustworthy tool. The integration is very smooth."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to cover different types of activities, and the requirement for maintenance and data is very low."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the Infor GL tool that allows us to do our application support and development."
"provides all modules, supply chain, HR - it's good for management."
"It's simple to use. You don't need any complex training to use it."
"NetSuite is significantly more affordable than Oracle EBS and offers a wider range of features than other OEMs."
"I have found there to be many features, such as manufacturing, accounting, financials, inventory, and purchasing."
"I would say that the solution is highly configurable."
"The project management aspect and the timesheets are valuable, especially for ensuring that our milestone billings are automated properly. From a manufacturing perspective, it is more to do with the entire management of the inventory, the overall finance, consolidation of books of accounts, and managing the profit and loss in a more effective manner."
"We can install the bundles based on our needs."
"I am impressed with the product's ease of use. It also helps us reduce the techstack."
"It's integrated into everything well so you can navigate and use it in a very simple way."
"The initial setup is easy."
"We can't make modifications to fit the client's requirements."
"It would be great if Infor added some new workflows in the finance module. I'd also like to see better integration with third-party applications."
"The product's technical support has certain shortcomings. Sometimes, my company doesn't get a proper response from their end."
"I would like to have some kind of dashboard to show an overview of different data on the same dashboard or on the same screen instead of moving to BI."
"The solution is stable but not agile."
"An area for improvement in Infor M3 is training. There should be more training resources available for clients. Clients also find it challenging to get consultants or integrators for Infor M3. The product doesn't have enough resources in the market to help clients."
"Infor should create one product to handle the whole business. At present, they make ERP systems for each type of business, and then sell additional features. I would like to have one system handing all organizations or all the business in deep ways and not have to buy additional features."
"Sometimes, M3 alone cannot handle all the planning functionalities required by a customer. It has to be used along with industry-specific planning tools because M3 doesn't have all the features. However, no product can handle all the requirements of all the industries. There will be some shortcomings in all the products. Though this is an area for improvement, it is not a very serious shortfall or limitation. It can be covered by using third-party planning applications that integrate with Infor M3."
"If they could provide more integration options to connect with different products, that would be ideal."
"The manufacturing and planning side could be improved. That part isn't up to date. NetSuite could be easier to integrate in general."
"Improvement-wise, it should be more customizable. Currently, you can't enhance the product yourself in terms of development for any applications unless you've got a very strong and big development team. Those are the skills that are in very short supply."
"There is a lot of room for improvement. Multiple manufacturing features need to be updated on NetSuite. More functionalities need to be added. I think there are a lot of functionalities coming out for warehouse management systems and manufacturing automation via advanced manufacturing functionalities. I think they need to improve a little more on those aspects and make it easier on the scheduling aspect."
"In NetSuite ERP, they should focus on offering better customization options."
"It would be great if they offered localization for Central America."
"If you do go through an implementor, you need to be careful that they are actual implementors and not just resellers."
"As with any system offering large volumes of data, there are limitations on processing large volumes of data in custom ways."
