Find out in this report how the two ERP solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Most of them who use Infor LN have add-ons connected to ERP. It's either a supplier exchange, or they've got sales problems that are integrated with it."
"The project module is the best that I've ever seen, and more than that, it's the company's flexibility to change. It means that in our company, Infor LN has the capability to support many kinds of industries."
"I like the tool’s multisite functionality."
"The most valuable features are manufacturing, and manufacturing costing modules. These are all powerful features of Infor LN."
"Our clients appreciate the financial part of the solution, which is usually very complex. The Spanish localization is also very good."
"The most valuable feature is its ability to handle products with up to 2,500 components, making it valuable for streamlining complex business operations."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The best feature of this solution, is that it provides businesses with a way to see information from across different process streams, in one place via dashboards."
"It is easy to use, and it works very well for small-scale companies."
"The security feature, particularly the encryption, which still builds sensitivity, is one of the most valuable features."

"The solution can scale."
"The platform offers a robust and comprehensive cycle for supply chain and inventory management, with features like minimum and maximum settings, dynamic monitoring of inventory levels, and integration with Microsoft's AI capabilities."
"All of the features are valuable, depending on where you implement them. I've done implementations in 60 countries, across 86 different companies and groups, and each company has a different reason for why they want to use it. Every single feature that I've implemented has been successful, and for some companies, where they didn't use the functionality, they have moved to external products or they've integrated into other applications."
"I like Microsoft Dynamics' simplicity. The interface is excellent, and it's a highly mature product. You can hardly find any bugs in the product."

"Regarding areas for improvement within the solution, I would say that the solution's asset management and quality management need attention."
"The user interface is not very intuitive for newer users."
"I would like to see the CRM improved. I would also like to see a supply chain management feature."
"From a technical perspective, LN needs to work on customization and integration. It's fairly expensive for many clients to migrate from a customized private solution to the cloud. Infor needs to improve the cloud solution to make the migration from the on-prem customized solution faster and smoother. Otherwise, many clients will find it difficult or expensive to do."
"While Infor LN incorporates the latest business processes and functions, there is always room for improvement as the business grows. In the new normal, it could stand to incorporate quite a few automation processes like the RPA and utilize machine learning in the Internet of Things."
"One area that could be improved in Omada Access Points is team communication."
"The tool is expensive. It needs to refine its planning details."
"The training for Infor LN is not straightforward, so a non-specialist will need training before using it."
"I would like to improve the tool’s reporting and coding part."
"Microsoft Dynamics NAV could be improved in terms of exporting income statements and balance sheets. Currently, there is a feature, but you can only have the last three years. I spent some time trying to improve the KPI portion that exports the data, that already calculates the sub forms or subtotals, but they weren't able to break that up into different dimensions. They've now managed to crowd the separate table and you can export that, but it's only for the last three years. So, they could improve this solution by getting the chart of accounts or the account schedules to be exported, where you can go further than just three years with it."
"There is some network issue."
"They need to improve their processes."
"The solution is not best suited for larger-scale businesses."
"As our company grew we had to switch from Microsoft Dynamics NAV to a solution that was suited for larger-sized companies."
"The price of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central could be reduced."
"I would like to have more frequent updates."
