Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We currently use it for sales (quoting), purchasing, and we are just switching over to accounting and timesheets.

Pros

  • Locally hosted, so it is very fast
  • Help documents are pretty good
  • Lots of flexibility in configuration

Cons

  • Random errors (seem to be related to python) can be very difficult to troubleshoot.
  • Creating reports and print/email documents is very cumbersome and confusing. Needs to have a WYSIWYG editor.

Return on Investment

  • Neutral, needed to find a new system as the current system is being retired.
