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.

Has supported tracking asset lifecycles with cost and maintenance visibility
The best feature is the ability to track the entire lifecycle from when the asset enters your organization until disposal. The entire lifecycle can be captured, including costs, depreciation, and any maintenance performed on the asset. All these costs can be tracked, which is the beauty of it. The advanced analytics and reporting tools are highly advanced. Because of the advent of AI technology, integrating it with AI will probably add much more value to JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Asset Lifecycle Management.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"There tends not to be a massive weakness in the product itself, as weaknesses can quickly be resolved in the next patch or the next release."
"IFS has been completely rebuilt, modernized, and cloud-based so we don't need bulky software installations."
"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."
"There are fewer fields on the user screen compared to other products. This makes the UI a little bit easier to understand."
"Feature-wise, I like the way it provides inventory details...It is a stable solution."
"The most valuable features of IFS Applications in the latest version are the new user Arena interface. It's from Apps 9, but it brings more flexibility in usage, especially around different devices, such as mobile usage, which doesn't restrict you from using a computer. We are it for the HR side, and it's proving quite good. It has a new modern feel to it similar to a standard cloud application which enhances the user experience."
"The most valuable features of IFS Applications are their intuitiveness and ease of use. The navigations are also straightforward, which makes it easy to train users. The feedback I always receive is that it is very user-friendly."
"The product is quite flexible."
"The product enables us to track our assets."
"The documentation of the solution needs to be improved. It would be helpful. Additionally, more analytics would."
"This is a very good and flexible solution, and it works across any kind of asset-intensive industries or organizations and would be very helpful for them in general."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The most demonstrable feature is the asset creation form, which is quite informative."
 

Cons

"When it comes to AI, I feel that is the area where we expect something more from IFS Cloud Platform."
"The integration is a bit complex, and post-implementation support services need to be improved. They have a service center based out of Sri Lanka. The support aspect is good, but the response time is a little slower than we anticipated. In the next release, it would be better if Warehouse Management could be improvised. They have a product line that's a data warehouse management system, but it's still premature and requires a bit of enhancement."
"The user interface can be improved. When you're clicking through the screens, there are some icons or symbols that really need updating and would be more useful and noticeable if they are aesthetically pleasing."
"The CRM was shaky and although this improves in Apps 10, there is room for improvement."
"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."
"There are certain digital features that need to be incorporated, such as IOP."
"IFS uses Crystal Report mostly, which isn't too user-friendly. Developing reports isn't easy and requires a lot of dev time. Since SAP bought it, Crystal Report has become more complicated to use on IFS. You have a dashboard for reporting that is good, but it's incomplete. Most of our clients use Power BI or some additional tooling for BI."
"Ability to place approval check-points in the custom workflow, so clients can decide what they want it."
"The UI and UX need severe improvements."
"The solution’s depreciation calculation setup needs to be improved because it is slightly disintegrated."
"The product must improve the approval process of asset transfer and disposal."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing is on an annual basis, with no additional costs."
"We pay for a license to use the solution, which is not very expensive."
"There are varying license levels that you can purchase."
"IFS Applications is expensive software, but it's on par with SAP and Oracle. It's for large enterprises and government entities and not for small and medium-sized enterprises. They have one licensing model, but if you want to have a module-specific license, they provide component-based licenses. Unlike SAP and Oracle, it doesn't have different levels of licensing. It's one level of licensing."
"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."
"Compared to SAP, the pricing for IFS Applications was very affordable. People using the solution would find that it's worth the money."
"There's an additional yearly cost for support."
"Pricing is an area that could be improved. They could be more competitive."
"The product is not expensive."
