We performed a comparison between IFS Cloud Platform and PeopleSoft based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two ERP solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."All the modules are valuable in their own right, but everything has to go through the ERP. IFS has done an excellent job integrating the various modules to complete these processes. My expertise is in the finance module, but I have used the other verticals. It's an all-around good product."
"What I like about IFS Applications is that it's easier to use and implement than SAP. I also like that the IFS Applications team is more flexible than the SAP team."
"One of our favorite features is the "Info-Zone", which provides operational intelligence in flight and in context to guide both business users and support teams to productivity."
"Having a young talented programmer, during the six years of use, we were able to save around 75 000 EUR preparing simple modifications using customization rather than ordering them in IFS / Partner."
"Some of the strengths are Enterprise Management Solutions and the series of Management solutions which is number one in Gartner's report and has been for the last five years."
"IFS Applications' best feature is the user-friendly interface that has a .NET Framework application in the front end and an Oracle database and WebLogic middleware."
"We could quickly understand what was going on and what the customer wanted to do."
"The most valuable features of IFS Applications are their intuitiveness and ease of use. The navigations are also straightforward, which makes it easy to train users. The feedback I always receive is that it is very user-friendly."
"Scales up very well."
"All the features of the solution are integral to the functionality. Additionally, the navigation customization is beneficial."
"PeopleSoft is mostly used for payroll and core HR functionality. Some customers use it for its finance module."
"PeopleSoft allows you to schedule upgrades and inform users beforehand. This gives your IT team time to manage the implementation and minimize disruption."
"I would recommend the solution. It's very stable and scalable, which makes it a reliable solution."
"PeopleSoft is scalable."
"Its user interface is impressive."
"This solution integrates very well with other products which is helpful."
"The solution's initial setup process was complex...The technical support my company receives from the implementation partners of the solution is not that great."
"An area for improvement would be transactions, which can be tedious to complete as the process is very complex."
"The next version has already been released, and some of the technical things are a little bit behind the curve in development. This is specifically security, maintenance, security role maintenance, and creation. This is in their new product, called IFS Cloud."
"Customization needs to be improved."
"It would be ideal if, in the future, the product could incorporate IoT and blockchain elements. We'd like to explore more of these types of features going forward."
"We would like to see AI-driven CSI functions built into the tool that would allow us to quickly tie our improvement goals to metrics and activities, so Assyst will suggest the next steps to help us get closer to our goals."
"I'm a business analyst, so I do a lot of customer-facing work. I take calls from businesses I have to troubleshoot. One thing that bugs me is the error messages you get from IFS. If I get an error message, I have to dig to find the cause because, often, the error message doesn't precisely describe the problem. It'll hint about where the problem lies, but you have to work to find the root cause. It doesn't help in my situation. You expect an error message to point to the field or what is causing the issue."
"I have seen that one of the areas that my company has identified for improvement might be the rental management capabilities within the solution."
"Having applications which provide more enhanced features and user-friendly elements."
"The product is not intuitive, and finding the right candidate can be arduous."
"If there is another release, they should look at going to mobile computing to stay competitive."
"I would like to see improvement in the UI."
"I would like to see a better UI."
"PeopleSoft could improve by being more user-friendly. It's somewhat awkward to navigate."
"I would like for the initial rollout process to be completed faster so that it can be implemented in a more efficient manner."
"It would be nice if it became even more declarative in its development."
