Simplifies finance processes and is easy to use but requires a user-friendly interface
JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is a user-friendly ERP solution that is quite simple. It has a very straightforward interface, which allows end users, especially those with a finance background like me, to engage in finance areas such as vouchers, manual vouchers, email receipts, and GL analysis efficiently. This ERP system is easy to handle; anyone can learn it faster compared to other ERPs. For smaller companies or startups, I would recommend JD Edwards.
Nicola Degliesposti - PeerSpot reviewer
The product lacks a lot of features and technology, though it is the most stable solution in the market
The product lacks a lot of features and technology. It is really limited. The tool must improve in almost all areas. There are a lot of things that should be improved in the manufacturing and shop floor, logistics and warehousing, and master data both from a functionality and technology standpoint. The solution must have a better WMS to improve the logistics and workflow and handle the processes within the system. The collaboration must be improved. The product must be more flexible and allow customization. It must allow the users to personalize the application in a better way. The tool lacks a lot in the purchasing area. The documents and process of purchasing are limited and simple. In the sales domain, there are no enhancements to calculate forecast and shipment programs. We cannot optimize transportation.

Pros

"The most valuable features of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne are the flexibility of the configuration, it is highly configurable. It is not rigid as other solutions, such as SAP. They have recently added a custom workflow approach and approval workflows."
"Overall, I would rate the solution nine out of ten, as it can be customized to the company's needs while maintaining best practices."
"The financial management features are convenient and helpful in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne."
"With the new versions, it has become very user-friendly. We have integration with mobiles, and we have cloud-based solutions. There are a lot of things that can be done by front-end users without technical knowledge. They can create reports without having to do any coding, and it's very good now."
"It has simplified the process completely, and even though it has many features which are available in the market now, but it is on par with the other ERPs that are available in the market now."
"JD Edwards is highly scalable and suitable for both small teams and large enterprises with hundreds of users."
"The most valuable features of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne are financial reporting, procurement, and project management."
"It is highly configurable. You have a choice in terms of how you want to run it. You can run it in your own data center, in a private cloud, or in a public cloud. The choice is really up to the customer."
"It is the most stable solution that I've ever worked with."
"The solution serves its purpose and does what we need it to do."
 

Cons

"Originally, there were some complications with implementation."
"The implementation procedure could be simplified."
"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."
"We’d like to see technical support integrated within the application so that it is not required to raise additional incidents or do manual outreach to support."
"They have been improving it every day, but it could have more automation."
"Localization features are critical for all regions. Improving these features in various countries and markets is essential to meet customer needs."
"Financial side could be expanded by bringing in things like the IMS."
"EnterpriseOne's integration could be improved."
"Just implementing an ERP system takes a lot of time."
"The product lacks a lot of features and technology."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing is for mid-market businesses, where it is cheaper than Oracle Cloud, EBS, or SAP."
"JD Edwards EnterpriseOne has a lot of value for the money. The implementation cost and license cost are quite reasonable compared to other solutions, such as Oracle EBS or SAP."
"The licensing costs are on a yearly basis, and there are no additional costs."
"The solution’s pricing depends on the module you’re purchasing."
"It's very competitively priced. The only problem now is that most of the industry is moving towards software as a service or a subscription model, whereas JD Edwards has a capital expenditure. You would spend on the licenses once off. You can either host it on-premise or in the cloud, but there is a licensing fee once a year."
"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."
"The solution is really expensive."
"More transparent pricing of the software is needed."
