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.
Firaz Mohammed - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers great integration capabilities and allows just the real-time inventory
Dynamics GP improves inventory management by offering real-time inventory tracking, and automated purchase order creation, receiving, and updating inventory levels. It facilitates site-to-site transfers and allocation tracking, enabling efficient stock management across locations. The integration capability of Dynamics GP, combined with Power Platform, has transformed our business processes. We now use PowerApps to enable salesmen to send orders electronically, eliminating the need for order books. Additionally, we developed HR apps to streamline tasks for our staff, leading to automated processes and improved efficiency. Our experience with Dynamics GP reporting and analytics features, particularly Advanced Analysis, has been great. We utilize customized smart lists for purchasing and other functions, allowing for tailored insights over specific periods. Additionally, we have developed custom dashboards for enhanced visibility and support portal integration. I wouldn't recommend Dynamics GP due to its legacy status and impending end of support. However, if integration with the Power Platform is crucial and the company prioritizes modernization, it could still be a viable option. For new companies, I would suggest considering Dynamics 365 Business Central for a more modern solution. Overall, I would rate Dynamics GP as a seven out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Overall, I would rate the solution nine out of ten, as it can be customized to the company's needs while maintaining best practices."
"The solution is very easy to set up."
"The most valuable features of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne are the flexibility of the configuration, it is highly configurable. It is not rigid as other solutions, such as SAP. They have recently added a custom workflow approach and approval workflows."
"Flexibility is the most valuable aspect of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne because it allows customization."
"I have found the solutions best features to be financial procurement, inventory, and manufacturing."
"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."
"JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is a user-friendly ERP solution that is quite simple."
"The solution is very customizable according to business needs."
"You can track everything from beginning to end quite easily."
"The system is easy to customize and has user-friendly access. ​"
"Snowflake's ability to handle large queries efficiently is very beneficial, unlike other databases which can take a significant amount of time for similar tasks."
"The stability was reliable."
"It is a tried and tested ERP system which if used correctly, is definitely a very good program for managing all aspects of a business from customer sales, and receivables management, to payable management and finance reporting. So, it's super critical for any mid-sized company."
"It is strong in integration."
"The most valuable feature is financial control. The accounting aspect allows us to manage our clients and payments."
"Snowflake's ability to handle large queries efficiently is very beneficial, unlike other databases which can take a significant amount of time for similar tasks."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement on the payroll side, as the solution is not very strong in this area."
"The only issue with the solution that it yet to consider improvements in its price."
"I would like to see improvements in the analytical part of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, specifically in the business intelligence aspect, to enhance its capabilities compared to bespoke solutions."
"They have been improving it every day, but it could have more automation."
"There is room for improvement on the payroll side, as the solution is not very strong in this area."
"We originally used EnterpriseOne for preventative maintenance, but it is not very good at that so we migrated to Maximo for that task."
"Originally, there were some complications with implementation."
"Financial side could be expanded by bringing in things like the IMS."
"It still can be improved in web-based and build reporting. ​"
"At times, navigating the user console can be challenging, particularly when trying to find account information."
"Dynamics GP could be improved in terms of its usability and modernization."
"As for room for improvement, they have different modules, project and analytical accounting, but it will be good to have that kind of part in the standard package. To have that additional reporting functionality where you can add an attribute or something, which you can report again. So you can analyze the cost by not just natural accounts but also by a project, without having to go through another module edit on top and then the other module edit on top. The more modules you add, sometimes it doesn't work that well. Additionally, it would be easier to have the solution on the cloud. That's our consideration. We are trying to move all our systems to the cloud, and GP is one of them that we are going to move in the next couple of years. I would rate the solution seven or seven point five out of ten."
"The purchase order and processing aspects of the solution should be improved."
"There should also be extra redundancy when posting to modules. We use different sets of books such as CashBook and CheckBooks therefore if I select the wrong one the solution allows the transaction to just pass without warning."
"The biggest problem with GP is that it's not cloud based and it doesn't lend itself to subscription licensing. But Microsoft wants everything in the cloud and licensed on a subscription basis.Even tThough GP can be deployed on a cloud server, but basically, it's a Windows based product. It uses the older model and companies purchase the program and pay a 16-18 sixteen- eighteen percent annual renewal fee but Microsoft wants everybody to pay monthly or annual renewal fees on a subscription basis."
"What could be improved is the functionality of Dynamics GP because it requires a lot of development by the programmers and the company in order to integrate into a solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"It depends on the number of users and the modules that you want to buy. It is licensed on a perpetual license basis. You buy the license costs upfront, and then there is maintenance for support that you pay every year, which is typically about 20%."
"The price of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is high. However, every ERP solution has a high price."
"There is an annual license for this solution."
"The cost depends on the number of users and the modules required."
"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."
"More transparent pricing of the software is needed."
"In comparison to other ERP systems, the pricing is not necessarily inexpensive, but it can be considered more cost-effective."
"It is an affordable solution."
"I would say that the pricing is moderate, not cheap, and not expensive. There are many more expensive ERPs than GP, and there are less expensive as well, so it is moderately priced."
"For us, in our local currency, it costs us around 5 million Botswanan Pulas a year. It's quite a lot of money."
"The solution's price is steep."
"Its pricing and licensing are high. Of course, we all know that it is Microsoft."
"​We evaluated some local products, because of the pricing, but this product has better features and support."
"I think the tool is competitively priced and it's more of a one-time investment with a low annual renewal fee."
