Consultant at a consultancy with 501-1,000 employees
Has job management feature which is useful for material planning but UI can be complex
Pros and Cons
- "I find the job management features of Epicor ERP most useful, especially for material planning. The ERP gives a perfect overview of many aspects. The scheduling is also helpful. It lets us see what we're planning and try different scenarios. For real-time analytics, I use it mostly for planning and "what if" scenarios."
- "The UI is quite logical, but it needs time to train users because some functions are complex to understand. As for cons, some calculation logic is difficult to grasp and requires time to test and try out. Creating dashboards or reports needs some technical IT knowledge."

What is most valuable?
I find the job management features of Epicor ERP most useful, especially for material planning. The ERP gives a perfect overview of many aspects. The scheduling is also helpful. It lets us see what we're planning and try different scenarios. For real-time analytics, I use it mostly for planning and "what if" scenarios.
Epicor ERP's pros include detailed analytics of my company, industry, and processes. It also has a user forum where you can get support from others who use the same features.
What needs improvement?
The UI is quite logical, but it needs time to train users because some functions are complex to understand. As for cons, some calculation logic is difficult to grasp and requires time to test and try out. Creating dashboards or reports needs some technical IT knowledge.
For future improvements, I'd like to see more in-app support, like explanations when hovering over fields, to clarify what I'm doing without searching through help articles.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using the product since 2023.
