Microsoft Dynamics AXL How satisfied are you with the solution?

I've been thinking of replacing our current Infor M3 with Dynamics AX. 

Are there any known issues with Dynamics AX when used by a manufacturing company?

Cons:
Limited Rework functionality,
Poor functionality if you need Catchweight functionality
Process controls in logistics/procurement and manufacturing are controlled by order type in M3, AX has limited controls by order type etc.
Limited Allowance for shrinkage etc. in production
Limited Variance Reporting and Actual Costing functionality
Limited functionality fro managing potency of a raw material
Limited cross warehouse sourcing suggestions functionality
Limited family forecasting functionality

PROS
Nice GUI
Ease of development within integrated development suite.

So the pricing will typically end up at about 1/3 to 1/2 of Oracle or SAP, and probably 50% higher than MS Dynamics AX (which normally overruns consulting budgets - so there's that). There's a lot of other products out there with pricing all in between. So if it's the right system for you, then you can get the pricing right at the end.
