Has shown limitations in digital capabilities but has supported key processes over time
JD Edwards World's real-time data analytics is very limited, and while it can be helpful, it is not the same as EnterpriseOne. I am currently using inventory management in JD Edwards World. I am satisfied with the security architecture in JD Edwards World; it is very easy and user-friendly. Even in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, it is very adaptable and you have role-based security without needing additional software. I am totally satisfied with the security part of JD Edwards World, but you must just know what you are doing. I am currently using on-premises JD Edwards World. My final mark for JD Edwards World is about five; I think it was good for when it lasted, quite a few years ago, but it is very outdated now. Therefore, the way to go is EnterpriseOne or cloud. For current usage, I would rate JD Edwards World maybe a five. My overall review rating for JD Edwards World is five out of ten.

Integration tools streamline financial operations and enhance data management
The most beneficial feature in Workato is its accessibility. The interface is easily understandable even for a common user, unlike the NetSuite ERP direct website which requires more technical knowledge. In Workato, NetSuite ERP provides options for new employee records, invoice reports, and batch files processing. The batch processing capability allows handling up to 10,000 records simultaneously, which reduces tasks and processing time significantly. Regarding scalability, NetSuite ERP offers excellent options and reduces manual interventions through automation. In the past three months, I have observed improvements in their options and data storage capabilities, showing enhanced scalability compared to previous versions.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature for me is the traceability customization, which allows me to track the movement and history of artifacts in our ecosystem."
"The most valuable feature of JD Edwards World is its ease of use and unique functions."
"The solution's UI is user friendly and has good performance and good search facility."
"JD Edwards World is a good ERP with high security from the application design."
"I think JDE ERP is very flexible and very convenient for the users. I think EnterpriseOne is more convenient for users to do the inquiry and do the data entry. The UI is better than JDE World. For JDE products, including the World version, is very flexible. It's a good product for clients."
"The solution has very good stability; there aren't any bugs or glitches, it doesn't crash or freeze, and it's reliable."
"We've found the initial setup to be easy."
"The pricing is okay. It's not overly expensive."
"NetSuite is a better value than some competing solutions. The fee structure is simpler, and other ERP solutions don't offer as many options for configuration."
"NetSuite is significantly more affordable than Oracle EBS and offers a wider range of features than other OEMs."
"It offers reporting flexibilities that were previously unavailable to us."
"It is a very solid product for finance and procure-to-pay processes."
"The system notes give me information of who changed what."
"We use it for the projects we do in the telecom industry."
"I am impressed with the product's ease of use. It also helps us reduce the techstack."
"The most valuable feature is that it works according to how the Internet works."
 

Cons

"The interfaces need to be more user-friendly. For example, our purchaser had difficulties updating prices as it required updating line by line."
"There are a lot of new technologies coming out and JD Edwards World could improve by having better integration with other databases. The integration with the databases and applications should be in real-time, such as with Oracle."
"The pricing for JD Edwards World could be more affordable so that it could be available to a broader audience. My clients want more analytics or data analysis features from JD Edwards World."
"Update interface capabilities and data maintenance tools to modern standards."
"JDE World is more stable than JDE EnterpriseOne. For JDE EnterpriseOne, the Integrity part will generate some errors; since they have low Integrity, we get some duplicate records in the accumulator table."
"The integration technology could be stronger at this point."
"Improvements are needed in transitioning JD Edwards World to a more stable and reliable cloud product, particularly in terms of GDPR and data privacy compliance."
"I would like report creation to be easier."
"The NetSuite fixed asset module needs to be worked on."
"Improvement-wise, it should be more customizable. Currently, you can't enhance the product yourself in terms of development for any applications unless you've got a very strong and big development team. Those are the skills that are in very short supply."
"NetSuite is good for data management, but it's missing payroll features."
"If some company already has a very large presence, in terms of employees or in terms of their products, and they are fully matured, they have a lot of different complex processes in their business, then NetSuite might not be the right choice for that stage of the business."
"There are still some bugs in some of the modules. Sometimes the system shows unexpected behavior."
"The CRM module just does the basics."
"What needs to be improved is the development in the other areas and other businesses that can use NetSuite, but it's rapidly coming about."
"NetSuite is still made for small/medium enterprises and needs to focus on bigger organizations, i.e., the Enterprise Edition."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing for JD Edwards World could be more affordable."
"You have to pay for a license, and the license cost is calculated based on the number of users you have."
"The price of JD Edwards World is reasonable. Since it is a legacy solution the price has been reduced."
"The price of the solution is quite high."
"It is expensive."
"It is completely on a subscription basis. We pay yearly and, and you do not have to do anything on a monthly basis. Prices depend on the organization's scale and all those things, but they are doing a good job with the pricing."
"There is an annual license required to use this solution."
"When people buy ERP, it's a competitive situation and the pricing is paramount."
"The price is less than the cost of daily hours."
"It's very competitively priced due to it being a subscription model. So, clients are quite happy with the pricing. I would rate it an eight out of ten in terms of pricing."
"Pricing for NetSuite ERP is okay, but it could be better. The licensing model for NetSuite ERP is based on the number of modules and users. The standard license covers up to twenty-five users. If you have more than twenty-five users, you'll have to buy the premium license, which would double the price. For one module with five user licenses, the cost is between $40,000 to $50,000."
