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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The best feature is the maintenance module, which is essentially an industry-specific workflow designed with a manufacturing module as per industry standards. It's very precise and specific without having complex functionalities. It's straightforward. Field Service Management is definitely a wonderful product that IFS has developed because it caters to field services. The energy and utility sectors can answer their business needs using the software."

"Individual user profiles that can be configured as templates to minimize data entry."

"IFS has been completely rebuilt, modernized, and cloud-based so we don't need bulky software installations."

"The most valuable feature is the distribution module."

"The main reason for the ERP project was to bring together our fourteen sites, which had until then worked in separate silos."

"I like the connectivity and interfaces. In V10, it's easy to modify the interfaces and layouts, but it's becoming more complicated in the cloud. IFS is excellent at asset maintenance and incident management. They have specialized modules for IFS that cover incident and asset management and everything else connected to finance. The reporting in IFS is also easy to use."

"Some of the strengths are Enterprise Management Solutions and the series of Management solutions which is number one in Gartner's report and has been for the last five years."

"What I like about IFS Applications is that it's easier to use and implement than SAP. I also like that the IFS Applications team is more flexible than the SAP team."

More IFS Cloud Platform pros

"The documentation of the solution needs to be improved. It would be helpful. Additionally, more analytics would."

"The most demonstrable feature is the asset creation form, which is quite informative."

"The product enables us to track our assets."

"The initial setup is straightforward."

Cons

"The user interface can be improved. When you're clicking through the screens, there are some icons or symbols that really need updating and would be more useful and noticeable if they are aesthetically pleasing."

"The solution's reporting tools still require improvement."

"IFS Applications is not robust enough to handle high-volume transactions, so it's not suitable for larger enterprises."

"Sometimes from the sales perspective, clients don't always fully understand how large a task or a project they're getting involved in when they decide, "We're going to switch across to IFS." They could probably do a little bit more, maybe around preparing people for these projects."

"I'm a business analyst, so I do a lot of customer-facing work. I take calls from businesses I have to troubleshoot. One thing that bugs me is the error messages you get from IFS. If I get an error message, I have to dig to find the cause because, often, the error message doesn't precisely describe the problem. It'll hint about where the problem lies, but you have to work to find the root cause. It doesn't help in my situation. You expect an error message to point to the field or what is causing the issue."

"The next version has already been released, and some of the technical things are a little bit behind the curve in development. This is specifically security, maintenance, security role maintenance, and creation. This is in their new product, called IFS Cloud."

"IFS uses Crystal Report mostly, which isn't too user-friendly. Developing reports isn't easy and requires a lot of dev time. Since SAP bought it, Crystal Report has become more complicated to use on IFS. You have a dashboard for reporting that is good, but it's incomplete. Most of our clients use Power BI or some additional tooling for BI."

"I have seen that one of the areas that my company has identified for improvement might be the rental management capabilities within the solution."

More IFS Cloud Platform cons

"The documentation of the solution needs to be improved. It would be helpful. Additionally, more analytics would."

"The product must improve the approval process of asset transfer and disposal."

"The solution’s depreciation calculation setup needs to be improved because it is slightly disintegrated."

"The UI and UX need severe improvements."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is better to buy implementation services from IFS than from partners"

"Pricing is an area that could be improved. They could be more competitive."

"Compared to SAP, the pricing for IFS Applications was very affordable. People using the solution would find that it's worth the money."

"The pricing of the solution may appear to be expensive for smaller companies with only tens of users; however, for larger and mid-size industrial companies, IFS is able to win deals and the pricing is competitive in the market."

"IFS Applications are competitive in terms of pricing compared to other vendors, such as SAP, Oracle, and Epicor. They are generally cheaper, especially for licensing costs."

"Ask for all-inclusive pricing, as they are pretty flexible if you ask for custom models."

"We pay for a license to use the solution, which is not very expensive."

"Licensing is on an annual basis, with no additional costs."
