Featured Reviews

Antonio Lira - PeerSpot reviewer
Seamless subsidiary operation visibility with efficient accounting consolidation
One of the most valuable features that I appreciate is the ability to consolidate operations across subsidiaries, which makes accounting consolidation great. The multicurrency reevaluation offered by OneWorld enables consolidation from different branches, such as country or continent levels, making it a powerful feature. Additionally, there is visibility into all operations within the subsidiaries, facilitating awareness of sales, purchases, and manufacturing activities.
Abbas Hirkani - PeerSpot reviewer
Quick implementation brings comprehensive workflow management and efficient regulation handling
One of the major advantages of QAD Cloud ERP is related to the easy and quick implementation that I have found the most valuable. The entire application of QAD Cloud ERP itself is very valuable for my customers. My impression of the advanced supply chain management feature in QAD Cloud ERP is that it's a very comfortable tool and, if rightly configured, it really helps the business to have clear visibility of the entire supply chain. My impression of the compliance management in QAD Cloud ERP is that it has reduced many overheads of doing manual compliance, and it is quite easily manageable; it is connected with the regulatory authorities, making it a fantastic tool. The positive impact my customers have experienced from using QAD Cloud ERP includes easy integration with multiple different applications, connectivity with regulatory authorities and banks, having bank drivers for easy payments and receiving money, and it has fantastic web UI reporting, which satisfies many different stakeholders within the entire organization worldwide.

Quotes from Members

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

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."
"The solution is user-friendly and flexible."
"NetSuite OneWorld is a single instance that allows you to do different business functions, such as reporting, order-to-cash, design-build, and procure-to-pay. This feature is what's most valuable in the solution."
"The solution has helped us save money by reducing the number of people needed for delivery, finance, and customer service. We now better understand our stock and purchases, and our sales team can access information without constantly communicating with delivery."
"NetSuite is a great solution, fast to bring up and makes everyone's life easier."
"Lowers costs, produces higher efficiencies, while maintaining a leaner staff and produces advanced financials."
"Embedded business intelligence is a valuable feature. There is also no need to wait for extract functions, and each transaction is reflected in the system dashboards in real time."
"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 positive impact my customers have experienced from using QAD Cloud ERP includes easy integration with multiple different applications, connectivity with regulatory authorities and banks, having bank drivers for easy payments and receiving money, and it has fantastic web UI reporting, which satisfies many different stakeholders within the entire organization worldwide."
"The solution serves its purpose and does what we need it to do."
"It is the most stable solution that I've ever worked with."
 

Cons

"If a faster solution is desired, a separate dedicated machine must be hired, which is not what customers necessarily need."
"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."
"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."
"In NetSuite OneWorld, what needs improvement is the production planning functionality."
"I hope NetSuite OneWorld introduces features like support for different pricing models, including packaging options, and improved production planning tools in the future."
"The solution could improve by having more integration."
"Currently, NetSuite OneWorld needs to be more mature, especially compared to SAP."
"The performance could be improved as this is a 100% software as a service platform. If a faster solution is desired, a separate dedicated machine must be hired, which is not what customers necessarily need."
"The product lacks a lot of features and technology."
"They could improve by moving away from the architecture of Progress 4GL as currently they are undergoing a very drastic change by redoing the entire application with Java and web-based technologies, projected to be released by 2026 with the incorporation of analytics, process intelligence, and AI to help business users."
"Just implementing an ERP system takes a lot of time."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"NetSuite OneWorld has fair pricing. It was not very expensive, so price-wise, I'm rating it as five out of ten."
"I would rate the pricing of the solution somewhere around six or seven out of ten. I don’t like the SaaS models. Of course, they make the tool powerful enough to run a billion-dollar business. The tool is cheaper than SAP or Cor"
"Measure twice, cut once."
"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."
"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."
"The tool is an expensive cloud application. It charges per license. We pay around 50 euros per month for a full user, and for 70 users, we pay around 120,000 euros per year. Maintenance and support are included in the full cloud license."
"​Good solution for the price, but hire a skilled project manager to handle the technical setup.​"
"NetSuite offers a great many advantages, including a cost of about third of the traditional pharma manufacturing ERP packages."
