JD Edwards EnterpriseOne reviews

Best ERP

Opmerkingen: Unfortunately, I did not work with JD Edwards anymore, but it was a excellent ERP.

Pluspunten:

In my opinion it is the best ERP in the market. I have worked with this ERP for more than twelve years, as a key user. It is flexible and easy to customize and has a good support. For Manufactirung module, I think it is the best.

Minpunten:

As it is easy to customize, when you need to update or upgrade the ERP, you have to spend more time testing.

JDEdwards

Opmerkingen: JDE has made most of our processes significantly easier and more accurate.

Pluspunten:

Integration was exactly as expected. JDE has been integral to our success in managing the financials, inventory management, supply chain management. It's also easy to integrate other pieces of specialized software.

Minpunten:

JDE requires a good amount of IT help to make any updates or adjustments this leads to upgrades happening slower than we'd like.

One of the main ERP for mid-size companies

Opmerkingen: It's a must have when you need to orchestrate many systems and platforms like e-commerce, MRP, and other softwares which impact on inventory and invoicing.Definitely a must have.

Pluspunten:

The possibility to integrate it with all our platform and softwares and the fact that it can manage inventory, invoicing and all other critical process of the company.

Minpunten:

It requires a lot of training to business users and it requires the costant support of system integrator in order to deploy it according to the company needs.

9 years of experience with JD Edwards software: Opinion, The single, worst piece of CMMS software I have Ever used.

Pluspunten:

The only positive remark I can make about JDE CMMS is that it will be going away at this location, Soon

Minpunten:

NOT user-friendly: at other locations I have trained Production AND Maintenance personnel in the use of CMMS / work order entry very effectively. From the most savvy computer users to old guy who didn't even know what a mouse was for. JDE: like pulling teeth to get them to use the system at all because it is so difficult to learn and counter-intuitive to most users. Not efficient: First red flag I found in JDE was that it took more than 20 clicks / selections (at best - assuming ALL default selections could be accepted) to simply PRINT 1 Work Order. While working thru that process, it was necessary to indicate, at least twice, (this is a computer folks, why would you be required to repeat the object to be printed. (First step- select the W/O, then about step 8 or 10 it had to be selected again.) This was eventually corrected to allow a SINGLE W/O to be printed in 2 clicks, but multiple selections still require these steps. Not intuitive: there are (or were) places in JDE where selecting a RED X is/was required to SAVE steps accomplished in a process. This may have been changed to a green check or a disk in recent updates, but it still begs the question. ?WHY would ANY software make such a selection necessary? EVER.? Did I mention,... NOT Efficient: using other (very effective) software, the old guy (as well as most anyone else) could enter the critical data for a Work order in under 30 seconds after maybe a couple weeks of use. at this point, (9 years, 3 updates later) even I, the most experienced user on the CMMS System, cannot enter the data necessary to create a W/O in less than 3 minutes. and it does not just work orders that consume valuable time. most of the processes in JDE require so many repetitive actions, that it is sickening to watch some of the individuals perform their daily tasks from purchasing, inventory functions, etc. because so much time is wasted in the process. and to top it all off, from early on (to present day) when I was observing some of the folks who work with me perform those daily tasks, I noticed them exiting the process, then returning to the process, as though they were double checking the entries. when I inquired about this action / repeated steps, I was told that on occasion it was possible for you to "time-out" on your JDE access, and have absolutely Zero indication that had occurred. so all of these folks had gotten in the habit of exiting then re-entering to verify the information did indeed get saved to the system. I actually had a hard time believing this could happen, with no indication, until it happened to my co-worker who was working with me at the desk next to mine and I personally witnessed it. (less than 6 months ago)

EnterpriseOne - It's Enough

Opmerkingen: Overall, EnterpriseOne does what it sets out to be, a capable and reliable, ERP system. Beyond that, it does not probably hold a candle to more expensive and robust ERP systems.

Pluspunten:

It's rather simple to pick up and learn, comes with a lower cost entry to pricing point, handles our massive manufacturing opps well enough. It's clips along at a solid pace, so less time waiting results to query.

Minpunten:

E1 is difficult to automate. Our robotics team requires endless loops, checks, and tests to ensure the automation software is working appropriately with E1. Additionally, E1 didn't have the capability to handle retail operations when we entered that market recently. Finally, the base "vanilla" E1 package lacks some features that might be considered standard elsewhere; such as good reporting functions.

Fair experience on my 8 years of using this Software

Pluspunten:

I used this program on the manufacturing and shipping department . When creating my production work orders i had to go through several steps, but once you find the way to do things is easy, and just add to your favorites for much easier and faster access. I used customer order reports , the only thing i needed to enter was the customer number / date ranges and will bring up every detail. Also Excel export is very simple.

Minpunten:

I wish that every job that is done can be found easier on my jobs list . Sometimes i wanted to find an specific document and i needed to keep clicking on almost every single one until found the desired one.

Clunky yet effective

Opmerkingen: Like most big data engines and products, it is difficult to find a way to give the product that encapsulates data access and functionality. It's not just JDE, it's every product I've used. Once thing I will say about JDE is that if you become well versed in how it works, you have access to a plethora of information and functionality. But if you're devoid of this knowledge and training, there is no way in the world you can just poke around to 'figure it out'.

Pluspunten:

-One stop shop for organizing and analyzing all construction needs. -Purchase order creation, Job Cost data, A/R Data, A/P Data, Forecasting modeules, Automated reports for cost and revenue

Minpunten:

It is not user friendly. This product has a lot of nuances entry rules that make the product very difficult to navigate. It requires serious training before someone is competent in this software.

Powerful ERP software that is as good as your developers

Opmerkingen: It's a powerful tool, but we still rely on our in-house developers to craft applications within E1 to perform the tasks that we want. My understanding is that it is highly configurable but that requires trained individuals.

Pluspunten:

E1 is in all aspects of our business. We create bills of material and routings for our products. It is our time clock. It manages our inventory. It is tied to our sales, billing, and procurement. We need it to function.

Minpunten:

I wish querying the database was a little more straightforward.

jde

Opmerkingen: We use it for manufacturing. We have a lot of modifications. I an creating a new system for the users right now - a commercial invoicing system with history, edit and reprint capability.

Pluspunten:

Using it since 1993, It is like home. I can make it do anything. Oracle does a good job with support and creating new features and technologies.

Minpunten:

I wish more places use it. Oracle needs to market it better.

you need a reliable ERP software, JDE offers the solution

Pluspunten:

Ease of useSupport help when needed Several support forums when needed

Minpunten:

At times, reports takes longer than desired

JDE EnterpriseOne Tech Notes

Opmerkingen: We were able to deploy E1 across several government agencies who were on disparate systems removing numerous interfaces and greatly reducing double work of entering information into multiple systems.

Pluspunten:

The JDE E1 software will run on multiple database platforms. Several years ago we choose SQL Server as our database of choice and we were running E1 on Oracle. The actual migration from Oracle to SQL Server was completed over a weekend. The bulk of that project focused mainly on retro-fitting the external interfaces to point to the SQL Server database. The E1 database does not use stored procedures or referential integrity at the database level. Data integrity is maintained programmatically. In 20 years we've never had a data integrity issue. Not implementing business\application logic into the database via stored procedures means the database is very fast and very efficient. Distributing application processing across web servers, application, and databases means it's easier to troubleshoot performance problems. The software has a complete lifecycle management tool for customizing the application to our specific needs. We have written several custom modules. The tool is very easy to learn. I am impressed with the continual investment by Oracle in this product and they are making great strides in having the whole application mobile ready. I can easily foresee us continuing to use E1 for another 10 to 15 years.

Minpunten:

Security setup is cumbersome at times and must be well thought out so it does not become a maintenance headache.

Great ERP System

Opmerkingen: Definitely, JD Edwards is a good software for companies that need integrate Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Logistic and Finances. This ERP help us to create BOM data for our manufacturing process, also there are applications of 3rd parties that help to read bar codes and interact with purchasing module to receive materials. Also the orders status helps to track our shipments in the warehouse management module.

Pluspunten:

1.-Easy to entry data. 2.-User friendly. 3.-Easy to customize screen according user needs. 4.-Integration system with manufacturing and finance.

Minpunten:

1.-Reports needs to be created by developers. 2.-Data conversion required to create reports when extract certain data like (Amounts, Quantities and Dates) by SQL or Access DB.

I like this better than SAP

Opmerkingen: This has been very useful to me and to my team. We solved a lot of problems using this software. Generating reports is easy too.

Pluspunten:

I like the interface of JD Edwards. Navigating is easy for me than when I do SAP.

Minpunten:

The wild card in Search allows the user to search any entry that matches. However, when a user use the wildcard * and did not add any more characters, the system hangs up because it will generate ALL entries. I wish there is a way for user to cancel when they accidentally do it.

Lots of options to work with. Very flexible, allows multiple facets to operate from same database.

Opmerkingen: consolidating all departments into one database. Ease of use compared to multiple different platforms used in the past.

Pluspunten:

Lots of functionality. Able to operate entire business (finance, AP, production, shipping and receiving) from the same interface. Able to keep area segregated while operating from the same database interface.

Minpunten:

Lots of options to learn and different ways to perform actions. Can get confusing at first but gets easier as you go.

Project Tracking

Opmerkingen: My team is able to use JD Edwards to obtain contracted work, track invoicing and overall project budgets.

Pluspunten:

JD Edwards allows my team to tracking purchase order processing and invoicing in a timely and efficient way.

Minpunten:

To use JD Edwards, you have to have a good bit of training. There are many screens and it often is not easy to navigate.

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne

Pluspunten:

The user interface was very clean and straightforward. The upload feature for journal entries was easy to administer. Table organization was easy to work with using report writing software.

Minpunten:

There were no significant cons related to my experience with this software.

Global Sales & Operations Planning Manager

Opmerkingen: I think it is a great software to use for manufacturing organizations.

Pluspunten:

The software is very user friendly. Good system to track inventory movements throughout material consumption business processes.

Minpunten:

Doesn't have a strong lead and opportunity tracker for potential sales opportunities. Strongest competitor in the marketplace is SalesForce

All in one tool

Opmerkingen: Happy

Pluspunten:

This is amazing, my team uses it for building orders, cutting checks, creating UPS labels, invoicing orders and keeping everything in order.

Minpunten:

At times there are several steps needed to correct an issue or mistake. It would be better if it was more user friendly.

JD Edwards -- 40 Years Strong and Getting Stronger

Pluspunten:

The flexibility of configuration and the sheer amount of functionality are both impressive. The design is elegant and features run-time switches behind many programs, user defined reporting codes on all the master files, and an easy way to change field labels to conform to customer terminology.

Minpunten:

It's hard to think of anything I don't like! I might be a little biased after 27 years in the JDE ecosystem. We're like an extended family--everyone helps each other be successful with JDE. Any company with revenues from $100M to $50B should take a look at JD Edwards. It sets the standard for other ERP packages, particularly in Manufacturing, Distribution, and Asset Intensive industries.

Used this product since 2005.

Pluspunten:

The software is highly customizable which is good. It would be great if all of our operating units were on this program.

Minpunten:

There are multiple screens and fields that you can access which is good and bad to perform one function.

Positve

Pluspunten:

Navigating through the software is easy and intuitive. I enjoy the ability to filter at the top of each column.

Minpunten:

I don't like the time it takes to run reports and processes. I also find some of the outputs/extracts to not be user friendly.

Works most of the time.

Pluspunten:

A lot of information managed in one place accessed by many,.

Minpunten:

As stated application of a case gets locked and you are done until IT unlocks it.

Excellent Software

Pluspunten:

It's very flexible and broad, with a particular strength for manufacturing organisations. It is a strong, comprehensive ERP solution for medium to large businesses, and of a high-quality.

Minpunten:

Finding functions you want in the tree is sometimes difficult, but adding everything to your favorites helps. The system interface looks a bit code heavy until you're used to it. If several departments are trying to run reports or enter data the system can be quite slow and even error out.

Powerful but complex

Opmerkingen: Oracle EBS is a powerful system. However, the systems' functionality requires a vast number of configuration changes - each with a myriad of choices. The power is great. The complexity is even greater!

Great integrated system with Many features

Pluspunten:

Simple to use. You can customize the layout and screen.Easy to navigate around the screens, create favourites of the screens you use the most.

Minpunten:

Slightly slow web based interface. depends on the connectivity of course. quite a expensive software to acquire.
