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.

"There's good flexibility within the inbuilt tools such as alerts, business process management, dashboards, and screen customization."

"The ability to deploy a generic implementation without advanced customization."
"Epicor ERP is an easy-to-use solution."
"With Epicor, we can call a pitch between Epicor and the PLM database, which is a significant advantage."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"When comparing Epicor ERP to the other related products, the pricing, additional enhancements, as well as implementation, are better."

"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."
