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.

A great choice for straight manufacturing, but not suitable for complex manufacturing models
SYSPRO at the moment is lacking on the project side. There's a module called Projects and Contracts, and it's a poorly designed module. One of my clients is a project-based organization, and they're finding it extremely difficult to manage their business using SYSPRO, to the point that they're looking at alternative solutions. The Projects and Contracts module is not a very useful tool. It does project accounting reasonably well, but in terms of putting in proper structures, like a work breakdown structure and so forth, it's actually quite poor. Their design or their architecture for the Projects module isn't good enough. They need to redesign it and redevelop it. They have made improvements. However, the problem is that if you're building on a bad foundation, then your building isn't going to be very strong. That's principally their problem. Any heavy equipment company would have a requirement to keep their equipment available for production. In that sense, SYSPRO has no maintenance management functionality. There's also no functionality for field services management. These two functionalities are critical for places like mines or for heavy equipment manufacturers who service the aftermarket and so forth. From a product perspective, this obviously isn't a good place to be because they are sort of taking themselves out of the market for quite a number of industries. They are constrained to manufacturing and distribution.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The good thing about it is that it is very customizable; we can modify it the way we want, and with the new versions it has become very user-friendly with mobile integration, cloud-based solutions, and many things that can be done by front-end users without technical knowledge, including creating reports without any coding."
"It can be scalable to any extent, with no issues and no boundaries, and it can serve small, medium, and large enterprises at the same time."
"EnterpriseOne has been the product that allows us to focus on our products and not on our ERP, and this means a lot."
"The technical support level is quite good."
"Everything's under one umbrella and so that's why we're going to JD Edwards; it's just incredible for efficiency."
"It’s a stable product."
"It is easy to inquire about any account in our company."
"The navigation interface is user-friendly and easy to understand for any user. Many new employees who have joined our organization from different companies, having worked with SAP and Oracle E-Business Suite, have given positive feedback about JD Edwards EnterpriseOne. They particularly appreciate the types of reports, MIS capabilities, and how quickly and easily they can extract data. According to senior management from other organizations, these features are faster, easier, and more convenient than SAP."
"The Financial Accounting module, in general, is quite good; it is quite simple but powerful, and similarly, the Manufacturing functionality, including a multiple level bill of materials, is also quite useful."
 

Cons

"I think they could maybe expand the financial side."
"The licensing is expensive compared to other solutions on the market."
"Treasury management is typically used in forex, loans, trade management and property management is not available. The solution could improve if they added them."
"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."
"The flexibility of workflows and multi-industry implementation support should be improved."
"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."
"The initial setup of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is straightforward. However, it could improve."
"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."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing costs are on a yearly basis, and there are no additional costs."
"The price of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is high. However, every ERP solution has a high price."
"More transparent pricing of the software is needed."
"It depends on the number of users and the modules that you want to buy. It is licensed on a perpetual license basis. You buy the license costs upfront, and then there is maintenance for support that you pay every year, which is typically about 20%."
"The cost depends on the number of users and the modules required."
"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."
"There is an annual license for this solution."
