Its core capabilities are grate within the manufacturing and distribution, when it comes to its grid components it is very strong, although exporting everything to excel was critical and it was fixed by introducing a new way "Export to Datalake" and leverages the ERP data. It has broad range of capabilities, integration patterns and modules. Singles instance for solution are good.

Cons
  • More supplier portal capabilities (eg. ASN).
  • Historical data; items show fixed if they are received. Would like to see these as not fixed, but considered something like not actioned.
  • Comment capabilities should be easier. Needs to be more like Excel, able to just enter comments. You have to click too many times to enter comments.

  • Integration with 3rd party solutions.
  • Analytics can be better.
  • Can have more features for large enterprise like SAP SCM.
