Featured Reviews

Abasiakama Bassey - PeerSpot reviewer
A project management tool that offers great scalability and stability
The support provided by Bitrix24 is an area with shortcomings that needs improvement. From an improvement perspective, Bitrix24 should consider providing live and upfront support to its users, especially those who use the solution's free version. If you want someone to get on your platform for which you can't provide support, then it doesn't make that platform any different from its competitors. It would make sense to people if Bitrix24 could provide support for even their free version. It would be good if Bitrix24 added some accounting elements to the tool instead of just providing functionality related to bookkeeping alone since it can help Bitrix24 become a complete tool. During the setup phase of the solution, the tool should provide its users an option to add the accounting part, making it a complete solution.
Brendan Fisher - PeerSpot reviewer
Robust, customizable, and modern
IFS is a very large and complex software, and implementation of IFS can be challenging and may lead to a difficult lengthy project. It can take between 12 and 24 months in some cases to deploy. I have found that not all clients are fully aware of how big the task is that they're undertaking when they make a decision to move to software like this. Companies need to be more aware of the complexity of an ERP implementation project and while I fully recommend moving to IFS, it is not easy and does require business change when adopting an ERP solution. New features are a difficult ask - I work across multiple industries and everyone would probably choose a different feature. Maybe BIM in Construction or Customs link-ups for importers/exporters.
