IT Director at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
Consistent optimization of production and efficient procurement processes improve operational effectiveness
I am working as an IT Director at Istituto De Angeli, which is a company of Fareva. FAREVA is a leading global contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) specializing in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, makeup, and home and industrial care products. I have worked with the traceability and audit features in Infor LX, including the electronic signature module, which is essential in the pharmaceutical industry. The electronic signature is a key component of compliance for our ERP. This is crucial for periodic inspections we receive from authorities, including European authorities, Italian AIFA, USA FDA and other Pharma Agencies and Ministry world wide. On a scale of 1-10, I rate Infor LX a 9.
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.
