Customization and process automation enhance support operations, but interface consistency could improve
At this time, there is not specifically something to improve regarding Service Creatio, but a couple of years ago, Creatio started developing a new version called Freedom UI with new interfaces. The new interfaces are amazing, but we still have some features in Classic UI that we cannot use in Freedom UI. What we miss is having all features in Classic available in Freedom. Creatio works every three months to release new features, but they are taking too much time to make all those features available. We could use more time. There are a lot of business rules we can use in Classic UI, but we cannot use many of those business rules in the Freedom UI because of the different interfaces. We miss several kinds of business rules or conditions that we could use in the design of the application or interfaces to the customer. For instance, I had a feature to introduce a formula graphically, but I can only use very basic formulas in the latest release. In Classic UI, we have powerful formulas, but in Freedom UI, I am limited to direct files from the current screen. The only thing I miss is having all the features from Classic UI available in Freedom UI. For instance, managing duplicated records is a feature that we can easily use in Classic UI, but in Freedom UI I cannot merge contacts to resolve duplicates, which is not available yet.

Integrated planning has improved production scheduling and now reduces downtime and costs
The biggest friction point I have run into with IFS Cloud Platform is user adoption, which has been the biggest challenge, as different users in the organization need to get accustomed to the new processes after years of using spreadsheets and legacy systems, requiring training and a mindset shift, along with challenging data migration and process standardization. My advice to someone considering IFS Cloud Platform with a similar workflow is to spend sufficient time understanding and standardizing their business processes before implementing it, as the technology is very powerful, but the real value comes when processes, data, and teams are all aligned. I would rate my overall experience with IFS Cloud Platform as a 9 out of 10.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Our customers have seen value and efficiency using this solution."
"You can draw a video map or draw on a piece of paper and put it in creation using the designer tool."
"Service Creatio is a great tool in process automation."
"Our client has benefited as follows: Reduced transaction time, better visibility, easier tracking, more control on business and automation, and better agility with the ability to move swiftly as times and market conditions change."
"I like the connectivity and interfaces. In V10, it's easy to modify the interfaces and layouts, but it's becoming more complicated in the cloud. IFS is excellent at asset maintenance and incident management. They have specialized modules for IFS that cover incident and asset management and everything else connected to finance. The reporting in IFS is also easy to use."
"IFS Cloud Platform has impacted my organization by allowing our team to spend less time reconciling data and more time executing business operations, as resources are utilized more effectively, reducing waste and improving productivity, while also resulting in reduced downtime and lowered maintenance costs, allowing management to make informed decisions based on actual data rather than historical reports."
"The most valuable feature to us was the capability to quickly identify the tickets we have open with people and follow up them."
"A high level of ERP can be handled in IFS."
"IFS Applications' best feature is the user-friendly interface that has a .NET Framework application in the front end and an Oracle database and WebLogic middleware."
"When it comes to financing, the solution has helped us to concentrate finance functions like accounting processes in one system. This includes about 70 internal entities around the world."
"IFS has been completely rebuilt, modernized, and cloud-based so we don't need bulky software installations."
 

Cons

"Despite me telling them that Service Creatio has many certifications to protect data, they chose on-premise, which has created issues, as they must be responsible for updates, upgrades, and new releases."
"The customer self-portal is not good. Service Creatio has a special capability for external customers and users to access the web portal, but we had to use third-party solutions developed by us."
"The return material authorization should utilize no-code or low-code."
"The initial setup or implementation was a little more complex than I expected."
"Aspects of HR and payroll could be better."
"We would like to see AI-driven CSI functions built into the tool that would allow us to quickly tie our improvement goals to metrics and activities, so Assyst will suggest the next steps to help us get closer to our goals."
"Technical support could be improved."
"The biggest friction point I have run into with IFS Cloud Platform is user adoption, which has been the biggest challenge, as different users in the organization need to get accustomed to the new processes after years of using spreadsheets and legacy systems, requiring training and a mindset shift, along with challenging data migration and process standardization."
"We have had an issue that we don't get proper after-sale service when we get technical glitches."
"An area for improvement would be transactions, which can be tedious to complete as the process is very complex."
"Sometimes from the sales perspective, clients don't always fully understand how large a task or a project they're getting involved in when they decide, "We're going to switch across to IFS." They could probably do a little bit more, maybe around preparing people for these projects."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The product is reasonably priced."
"IFS Applications are competitive in terms of pricing compared to other vendors, such as SAP, Oracle, and Epicor. They are generally cheaper, especially for licensing costs."
"Ask for all-inclusive pricing, as they are pretty flexible if you ask for custom models."
"The additional cost that comes with the solution includes the overhead of the people who are trying to fix the tool issues. These people are trying to reproduce the issue and report it to the technical support and testing with them which is huge. It is the cost of quality in the end."
"We pay for a license to use the solution, which is not very expensive."
"There are varying license levels that you can purchase."
"Licensing is on an annual basis, with no additional costs."
"It is better to buy implementation services from IFS than from partners"
