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.
Nicola Degliesposti - PeerSpot reviewer
The product lacks a lot of features and technology, though it is the most stable solution in the market
The product lacks a lot of features and technology. It is really limited. The tool must improve in almost all areas. There are a lot of things that should be improved in the manufacturing and shop floor, logistics and warehousing, and master data both from a functionality and technology standpoint. The solution must have a better WMS to improve the logistics and workflow and handle the processes within the system. The collaboration must be improved. The product must be more flexible and allow customization. It must allow the users to personalize the application in a better way. The tool lacks a lot in the purchasing area. The documents and process of purchasing are limited and simple. In the sales domain, there are no enhancements to calculate forecast and shipment programs. We cannot optimize transportation.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"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."
"The solution is stable."
"JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is a user-friendly ERP solution that is quite simple."
"The solution excels in costing and work order processing. JD Edwards EnterpriseOne manages multiple manufacturing modes in the same process effectively."
"A stable and solid product."
"The interface is very user-friendly."
"The solution can scale."
"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."
"It is the most stable solution that I've ever worked with."
"The solution serves its purpose and does what we need it to do."
 

Cons

"JD Edwards EnterpriseOne could improve the speed because sometimes it takes time to load into the environment. This is typical when the ESU patch packages are used."
"The flexibility of workflows and multi-industry implementation support should be improved."
"There is room for improvement on the payroll side, as the solution is not very strong in this area."
"Treasury management is typically used in forex, loans, trade management and property management is not available. The solution could improve if they added them."
"While it is easy to handle, there is room for improvement compared to more sophisticated ERP systems."
"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."
"If they can research and make the installation part easier or more user-friendly, it would be nice."
"Just implementing an ERP system takes a lot of time."
"The product lacks a lot of features and technology."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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 the solution is not cheap. However, it is priced average amongst competitors."
"The cost depends on the number of users and the modules required."
"In terms of price, it is not on the high end."
"The solution’s pricing depends on the module you’re purchasing."
"The licensing is for mid-market businesses, where it is cheaper than Oracle Cloud, EBS, or SAP."
"The price of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is high. However, every ERP solution has a high price."
"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."
