Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"There's good flexibility within the inbuilt tools such as alerts, business process management, dashboards, and screen customization."
"The solution is great for production planning because everything is out of the box. It smoothly handles the process from engineering to ERP, including version management and subcontracting. These features aren't in NetSuite."
"Epicor ERP is an easy-to-use solution."
"I find the job management features of Epicor ERP most useful, especially for material planning. The ERP gives a perfect overview of many aspects. The scheduling is also helpful. It lets us see what we're planning and try different scenarios. For real-time analytics, I use it mostly for planning and "what if" scenarios."
"Real-time results make for faster decision making."
"The product enables users to customize their dashboards and reports."
"Epicor ERP is very technical friendly, if you want to do any customization, it's very easy."
"The most valuable features of Epicor ERP are ease of use, powerful API, and comprehensive integration. It is a one-vendor solution, where other vendors need other software systems from multiple vendors."
"It is easy to inquire about any account in our company."
"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."
"Flexibility is the most valuable aspect of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne because it allows customization."
"JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is perfect for our reporting for the management, workflow, and procurement workflow."
"EnterpriseOne is stable and can be customized according to customer requirements."
"The solution is very customizable according to business needs."
"The tool is valuable for its rich set of functionalities and stability. The solution is stable. The customer service and support is good."
"A stable and solid product."
 

Cons

"The tool should provide a better user interface."
"I would like to see a better reporting tool."
"A number of bugs in 9.05 were only fixed in 10."
"In the newer version of Epicor ERP, it's very difficult to find out that tracing."
"Right now, it doesn't really have a good cloud story."
"There are some glitches in Epicor ERP."
"The main challenge with implementing Epicor ERP is finding the right partners, especially in Europe."
"The UI is quite logical, but it needs time to train users because some functions are complex to understand. As for cons, some calculation logic is difficult to grasp and requires time to test and try out. Creating dashboards or reports needs some technical IT knowledge."
"The initial setup was complex...One should get the end-user manual because, in some parts, JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is not user-friendly."
"The implementation procedure could be simplified."
"The only issue I see is Oracle's lack of focus on the product. When the sales team calls us, they try to promote OCI more than JD Edwards EnterpriseOne. They don't even talk about it. I feel there's no focus from Oracle Corporation themselves. The salespeople either don't know about it or don't talk about it. When they have something new, they only talk about EBS or OCI. This gives a feeling that there's no interest from Oracle. We don't see much new functionality being released or announced in the roadmap."
"The product’s pricing should be improved."
"The Fixed Asset module is not desirable because it is complicated."
"The licensing is expensive compared to other solutions on the market."
"JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is more of a legacy solution because most of the competitors are or have moved to the cloud. It would be beneficial if there was a cloud version available. Additionally, the interface could improve."
"We originally used EnterpriseOne for preventative maintenance, but it is not very good at that so we migrated to Maximo for that task."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Epicor ERP is an expensive solution."
"Pricing isn't a big problem for the solution - I haven't seen them lose deals because of it."
"The initial cost may be a bit high, but the maintenance cost is lower."
"When comparing Epicor ERP to the other related products, the pricing, additional enhancements, as well as implementation, are better."
"We bought an on-premise version of the solution. The cloud version is different. I've looked into it, but it's very competitive on the low end of the market."
"User support could be improved as well, as the consultant charges are very high."
"The price of the solution is not cheap. However, it is priced average amongst competitors."
"The pricing is an "arm-and-a-leg". This keeps the customers away from going for J.D. Edwards."
"The cost depends on the number of users and the modules required."
"I rate the tool's pricing a three out of ten."
"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 maintenance of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is expensive and overall the solution is expensive. Most enterprise operation solution is expensive."
"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 licensing is for mid-market businesses, where it is cheaper than Oracle Cloud, EBS, or SAP."
