Featured Reviews

Senior lead consultant at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Manufacturing planning has become efficient and supports integrated shop floor and quality control
For manufacturing, Infor LX is very strong on the MRP side with MRP and MPS capabilities, and even shop floor functionality. The platform has quality control features, and there are many additional features available. There is also integration with finance. Overall, for manufacturing, it is very good. There are many modules that have been implemented including inbound, outbound, and logistics. Primarily for manufacturing and the processing side, everything is excellent. It's a solid, proven product. Infor LX's material planning feature is quite a flexible solution.
Euan Ellis - PeerSpot reviewer
Director of IT Applications at a manufacturing company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Has supported global operations through multi-currency and modular customization
Oracle's support is not that good for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne. Their support is expensive, and I don't think you're getting your bang for your buck. For the cloud product, they do give you support, but everything is online and you might not get somebody. I would give Oracle's support for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne about a 6.5 on a scale of one to 10.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Infor LX has helped us in conducting efficient production planning, streamlining procurement processes, and maintaining a reliable source of information for our vendors and procurement purchase orders."
"I've been using it since December 2009, and it has been absolutely stable till now."
"Infor LX is effective for planning, manufacturing, and distribution processes."
"One of the things I love about Infor LX is that everything is integrated."
"This solution has brought structure and shape to our day-to-day operations."
"Mainly for manufacturing and processing, everything is excellent."
"Infor LX's most valuable feature is that it's very interactive."
"The most important feature of Infor LX for me is the use of models for accounting, which create effects in different layers simultaneously."
"When it's boiled down to the ERP system, I would recommend Oracle EOne compared to SAP since you can do lots of customization, and you have lots of other functionalities enabled in the system."
"EnterpriseOne is stable and can be customized according to customer requirements."
"The solution is very customizable according to business needs."
"Access and visibility of different business processes on a single UI."
"But for large enterprises, it's a very good and cost-effective solution that's competitive with other products like SAP."
"Flexibility is the most valuable aspect of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne because it allows customization."
"The product can scale."
"It is very straightforward to deploy and set up."
 

Cons

"The user interface of Infor LX needs significant enhancement to be more user-friendly."
"From a supporting point of view, Infor LX is not quite what I see with SAP and other areas."
"Infor's support side is not that good, and they seem to be focusing on other products above LX."
"The connectors, performance, and knowledgebase availability can be improved."
"Infor needs more APIs, as in the current version, APIs are not fully developed. The development of APIs must be enhanced, especially for AS400."
"The interface needs enhancement, as I am still using outdated screens. I would benefit from a more integrated interface."
"It's based on AS/400 or Power i, a robust technology and platform. However, it is harder to manage admin most of the time."
"It lacks in finance and administration, especially related to Italian accounting."
"I would like the user experience to be more user-friendly."
"What would make JD Edwards EnterpriseOne better is more straightforward project implementation, including reducing the costs associated with upgrading projects."
"The solution could improve by having additional efficient analytics available to more users. They should allow a sample database to be able to test and do proof of concept would be extremely valuable to all of our clients."
"From the operation perspective, it could offer more functionality for the APIs."
"The only issue I see is Oracle's lack of focus on the product. When the sales team calls us, they try to promote OCI more than JD Edwards EnterpriseOne. They don't even talk about it. I feel there's no focus from Oracle Corporation themselves. The salespeople either don't know about it or don't talk about it. When they have something new, they only talk about EBS or OCI. This gives a feeling that there's no interest from Oracle. We don't see much new functionality being released or announced in the roadmap."
"Localization features are critical for all regions. Improving these features in various countries and markets is essential to meet customer needs."
"I would like to see the HR features enhanced with respect to localization for South Africa and other countries."
"Implementing JD Edwards EnterpriseOne can have its challenges. For example, we faced issues like timeout exceptions in a recent integration project while pulling data from third-party systems."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Our last maintenance fee was around $15,000 a year for 33 current users."
"Infor LX is not cheap but much cheaper compared to SAP HANA."
"Pricing is variable due to different deals and discounts, typically starting at around $2000 US dollars for one license."
"The pricing is an "arm-and-a-leg". This keeps the customers away from going for J.D. Edwards."
"EnterpriseOne is cost-effective for large enterprises."
"More transparent pricing of the software is needed."
"There is an annual license for this solution."
"The pricing is very high. Even though the license is perpetual yet you have to get the maintenance. Since we pay using Pesos, it's very expensive."
"In terms of pricing, we have a lot of problems because companies here don't have enough resources to acquire the product. So we need to evaluate the price according to our demographic...The license cost is around 1,00,000 euros."
"The cost depends on the number of users and the modules required."
"The solution's pricing depends on the deal and the number of users."
