Pros
"I like that JD Edwards World is perfect for my use cases, but what I like best about it is its navigation.""The ease of use is consistently there.""The pricing is okay. It's not overly expensive.""The most valuable feature of JD Edwards World is its ease of use and unique functions.""Menu creation is easier now.""Collecting data in standard formats for processing in a data warehouse.""I think JDE ERP is very flexible and very convenient for the users. I think EnterpriseOne is more convenient for users to do the inquiry and do the data entry. The UI is better than JDE World. For JDE products, including the World version, is very flexible. It's a good product for clients.""We've found the initial setup to be easy."

"This product is very scalable and easy to expand.""MDG provides a central location for governance of the creation/updating processes of master data. It allows you to change several fields in the same object. For example, we can change a field on the purchasing view and change another field on an accounting view to the same material at the same time.""The features are very useful for finance.""The solution is very stable.""It is the best solution in the class of ERP products.""The best thing that SAP ERP has is the extensive coverage of processes for every field and business unit such as procurement, inventory, financials, asset management, plant maintenance, and production. We can cover up to 99.9% processes of our organization, which is the best thing about this solution. It also has a very good capability to integrate with other applications. The security and authorization level of SAP ERP is very high. No other solution can match this level.""SAP ERP's interface is pretty easy nowadays, as it has evolved over time and has been made as user-friendly as a person would like it.""The stability and performance are good."

Cons
"I would like report creation to be easier.""I have more than 18 years of JDE experience in JDE EnterpriseOne and World versions. I think JDE is good but compared to SAP and Oracle EPS, we can see which area needs to have some improvement for JDE.""The pricing for JD Edwards World could be more affordable so that it could be available to a broader audience. My clients want more analytics or data analysis features from JD Edwards World.""The integration technology could be stronger at this point.""Its end of life is already announced, so I don't expect lots of improvement coming from the product anywhere anymore.""There are a lot of new technologies coming out and JD Edwards World could improve by having better integration with other databases. The integration with the databases and applications should be in real-time, such as with Oracle.""Update interface capabilities and data maintenance tools to modern standards.""There is no support from Oracle here. We only have third-party support."

More JD Edwards World Cons →

"The warehouse management could be better.""The system is over-customized.""It needs to incorporate the new features from the SAP S/4HANA release, such as, utilizing data processes, which is quite nice.""The problem with SAP is that whenever there is a modification, or if a new field needs to be added, they charge tens of thousands, hundreds, or even two hundred thousand dollars. That is not anything in which I am really interested. For instance, consider a single-use case. I have to enter the root causes for a certain operation or failure. That option does not exist anywhere in SAP, not in manufacturing, not in logistics, not in anything. It is completely missing. The root cause analysis is very common across industries, yet SAP does not offer this option. A line field or a metaparticle, for example, was delayed. If you have the choice to input the warehouse operator or if the person who submitted the document has the opportunity to enter, this has been postponed for N, X, Y, or Z reasons.""SAP ERP is scalable. We have some five to ten thousand SAP ERP users.""They need to improve a few processes, including transformation, intelligence, governance, modeling, etc.""It is very expensive to customize to meet compliance with regulations in some countries.""The UI could use improvement."
