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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The best thing is that it's very intuitive and user-friendly. You don't need coding skills to manipulate the platform."
"Where we're seeing the opportunity in the market is at the Fortune 100 companies that have far more complex modeling type scenarios where you need to be able to have a lot of people collaborating together, and you need a lot of information all at everyone's fingertips. This is where you see the big advantage of a solution like Anaplan."
"The features that I have found most valuable are that it is web-based and easy to use."
"The solution works very well for budgeting."
"I am impressed with the tool’s real-time calculations and intuitive interface. The tool’s user interface is the best compared to other software that I have worked with. I also find the tool’s management reporting feature valuable."
"You don't need to have a programming language to use Anaplan."
"Anaplan offers flexibility in building different options within the platform."
"It's highly flexible. If you've got a complex environment with complex calculations, you can build that out. So that's a really good positive."
"The tool is valuable for its rich set of functionalities and stability. The solution is stable. The customer service and support is good."
"It’s a stable product."
"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."
"A stable and solid product."
"JD Edwards EnterpriseOne has improved within all the solutions and there have been a lot of investments by Oracle in these solutions. Most of the functionalities, and business requirements, are available for the system in the solution and there have been enhancements to the processes, UI, and tools, which have been done on a regular basis."
"The most valuable features of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne are financial reporting, procurement, and project management."
"The most valuable feature of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is the flashback it quickly takes you to the data browser. Additionally, one of the newer tools is the orchestrator which is very good."
"It is very straightforward to deploy and set up."
 

Cons

"One key area of improvement is pricing."
"It would be nice if the solution offered better extensions."
"When there is a lot of data, it sometimes takes long to load."
"Anaplan's workflow component is probably the biggest area for improvement. I'd also like to see Anaplan add an ad hoc reporting tool that allows users to query things. It's going to factor into how you design your data set and your models, but I'd like the ability to create ad hoc queries against the data that's in there."
"There are workspace issues, like the limitation on model sizes."
"Space and integration are a problem."
"Automation needs to be built into this solution."
"Anaplan could be improved with a stronger consolidation module."
"Localization features are critical for all regions. Improving these features in various countries and markets is essential to meet customer needs."
"What would make JD Edwards EnterpriseOne better is more straightforward project implementation, including reducing the costs associated with upgrading projects."
"The Fixed Asset module is not desirable because it is complicated."
"They need to improve the logs and need to write some sort of script that clears logs after so many days."
"Forms customization should be easier. Currently, it has to go through the development life cycle."
"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."
"EnterpriseOne's integration could be improved."
"I would like to see the HR features enhanced with respect to localization for South Africa and other countries."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This is an expensive product and if the price were reduced then it would attract more customers."
"A value-for-money product and a very reasonable price compared to competitors like SAP or IBM."
"The entry-level is anywhere from about $30,000 to $50,000 a year, however, it does go up significantly after that depending on the complexity and how much space you're using."
"The price of the solution is expensive."
"This is a yearly subscription. So a customer initially buys a workspace and specifies how much GB they want. The minimum starts at around 30 GB. You can buy multiple workspaces."
"Anaplan is a bit pricier compared to its competitors - the license costs about $4,000 per user annually."
"The license is a yearly subscription. There are three licensing tiers: the model builder, planner, and the reporting."
"The cost of Anaplan is a challenge for clients, especially if they don't have an ongoing long-term use case for it. It's a $50,000 licensing fee just to get started. Clients need a strong business case to switch from Excel to Anaplan. But if clients have used something similar in the past, such as Hyperion or other solutions, that's not a factor because they know what to expect."
"The maintenance of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is expensive and overall the solution is expensive. Most enterprise operation solution is expensive."
"The price of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is high. However, every ERP solution has a high price."
"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 solution’s pricing depends on the module you’re purchasing."
"The licensing costs are on a yearly basis, and there are no additional costs."
"There is an annual license for this solution."
"I rate the tool's pricing a three out of ten."
"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."
