Chief Financial and Operating Officer at Aicrem Square
Has shown limitations in digital capabilities but has supported key processes over time
JD Edwards World's real-time data analytics is very limited, and while it can be helpful, it is not the same as EnterpriseOne. I am currently using inventory management in JD Edwards World. I am satisfied with the security architecture in JD Edwards World; it is very easy and user-friendly. Even in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, it is very adaptable and you have role-based security without needing additional software. I am totally satisfied with the security part of JD Edwards World, but you must just know what you are doing. I am currently using on-premises JD Edwards World. My final mark for JD Edwards World is about five; I think it was good for when it lasted, quite a few years ago, but it is very outdated now. Therefore, the way to go is EnterpriseOne or cloud. For current usage, I would rate JD Edwards World maybe a five. My overall review rating for JD Edwards World is five out of ten.

Offers extensive features for efficient operations in small to midsize businesses
The solution is very good. However, for very small companies, maybe a cloud service is better. Other software like QuickBooks may work well if you do not have many employees and require simple invoicing and inventory. This software, though, is a bit more advanced compared to QuickBooks, offering flexibility, multi-user capability, and options for application development. It connects directly to the database for reporting or external systems, which is beneficial for companies needing more advanced features. However, if I need a very complex system, Sage might not be suitable. Overall, I would rate this product an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It has worked fine for many years."
"We've found the initial setup to be easy."
"The most valuable feature in JD Edwards World is World Writer, the reporting functionality; inventory management in JD Edwards World is useful and it helps with supply chain as long as the setup is done correctly."
"Overall, its flexibility and technological capabilities make it very valuable for my customers."
"Menu creation is easier now."
"The solution has very good stability; there aren't any bugs or glitches, it doesn't crash or freeze, and it's reliable."
"The solution's UI is user friendly and has good performance and good search facility."
"A global system with a local presence and intercontinental communication, it provides us with a common language, product, and customer base."
"The warehouse module is imperative in keeping our records up-to-date because we have multiple locations."
"For me, it is a ten because I did not have any problems or issues."
"The technical support is very good."
"Regarding the cost, it is cheap. I pay a one-time fee instead of a monthly license fee per user."
"The product provides consistent updates and upgrades."
 

Cons

"Update interface capabilities and data maintenance tools to modern standards."
"I would like report creation to be easier."
"The flexibility and ability to integrate external applications are increasingly vital."
"The technical support from Oracle needs a lot of improvement. Both the response time and quality of support require enhancement."
"Having tools that allow for small but fast adaptations of packages is crucial, as needing skilled programmers for every minor report or mask adaptation is a constraint my customers no longer favor."
"Its end of life is already announced, so I don't expect lots of improvement coming from the product anywhere anymore."
"The integration technology could be stronger at this point."
"JDE World is more stable than JDE EnterpriseOne. For JDE EnterpriseOne, the Integrity part will generate some errors; since they have low Integrity, we get some duplicate records in the accumulator table."
"We're definitely looking at a new system because everything in this product needs improving."
"Updating incorrect information takes a specific process to correctly back out the error to fix it."
"While the software may not be very expensive, it lacks many advanced features found in other software."
"The vendor stopped supporting the solution on the Linux platform."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"You have to pay for a license, and the license cost is calculated based on the number of users you have."
"The pricing for JD Edwards World could be more affordable."
"The price of JD Edwards World is reasonable. Since it is a legacy solution the price has been reduced."
"The pricing is reasonable."
