Two years in and we still use half of it

Good system, and you must budget for the support relationship indefinitely. Strong multi warehouse and multi branch handling. Beyond that it is more ordinary than the marketing suggests. It sits squarely in the middle for us, useful but not something I would champion. Fine for our needs. Test it properly against your own requirements.

What works

Manufacturing and bill of materials without moving up a tier. The partner network means help is available.

What does not

Remote access needs a hosted desktop. Version upgrades are projects rather than updates.

Used for 6 to 12 months

Traceability paid for itself in one audit

We run four warehouses and two companies on this and the consolidation works. Strong multi warehouse and multi branch handling. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. Nothing has come up in the last year that I would call a real problem. Worth the migration effort, which is not something I say often.

What works

Strong multi warehouse and multi branch handling. Multi warehouse transfers are visible and auditable. Branch reporting comes out without a spreadsheet in between.

What does not

Implementation cost more than the licence, as expected but still painful.

Implementation ran eleven months over

Under scoped implementation, and we discovered it after go live. What surprised me was that the parts we were sold on never worked the way they were demonstrated. The gaps are the kind that create work rather than save it. I would look elsewhere unless price is the only consideration.

What works

The core accounting works.

What does not

Renewal pricing increased well beyond inflation. Localisation was incomplete at go live. We are still running parallel spreadsheets.

Response from the vendor24 Aug 2024

Thank you for this. We recognise the pricing concern and would like to review your plan with you, as there may be a better fit for your usage. Our team will be in touch.

The partner made the difference, not the software

We run four warehouses and two companies on this and the consolidation works. The largest ERP implementation partner base in South Africa. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. Nothing has come up in the last year that I would call a real problem. I would recommend it to a business of our size without hesitation.

What works

Strong multi warehouse and multi branch handling. Branch reporting comes out without a spreadsheet in between. Stock on hand matches the physical count for the first time in years.

What does not

The interface is dense and training is a real line item.

Landed cost is finally accurate

Two years post go live and I would make the same decision. Manufacturing and bill of materials without moving up a tier. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. Nothing has come up in the last year that I would call a real problem. Worth the migration effort, which is not something I say often.

What works

Strong multi warehouse and multi branch handling. Branch reporting comes out without a spreadsheet in between. Traceability from raw material to finished goods is complete.

What does not

The interface is dense and training is a real line item.

Powerful, and it demands a specialist

The software is capable. Our implementation was mediocre and we are still paying for that. Local statutory reporting maintained by the vendor. Beyond that it is more ordinary than the marketing suggests. It sits squarely in the middle for us, useful but not something I would champion. Fine for our needs. Test it properly against your own requirements.

What works

The largest ERP implementation partner base in South Africa. Reporting is capable once configured.

What does not

Version upgrades are projects rather than updates. Reporting requires a specialist to build.

Go live was on time and under budget

The implementation partner was excellent, which I think matters more than the badge. The largest ERP implementation partner base in South Africa. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. There are irritations, and none of them are the kind that make you look elsewhere. Worth the migration effort, which is not something I say often.

What works

Strong multi warehouse and multi branch handling. Traceability from raw material to finished goods is complete. Branch reporting comes out without a spreadsheet in between.

What does not

Configuration changes need the partner rather than an internal administrator.
