Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""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.""LN is definitely a stable product. It's number one on Gartner's four quadrants.""It's fast, predicts well, and is basically the best tool in the market for the automotive industry and network planning projects.""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 best thing about Infor LN is that you can use it for inter-company business and for international businesses, especially by mid-sized and big companies.""Material planning and predictive planning are both essential aspects."

Cons
"Regarding areas for improvement within the solution, I would say that the solution's asset management and quality management need attention.""Only people who undergo training from the companies can learn about Infor products.""When it comes to planning, it's more challenging to consider the entire structure, such as having a specific SKU and wanting to look at the planning for the whole structure. You must delve into individual item details to plan for it with order planning. Therefore, improvements will allow more comprehensive planning for each SKU.""The finance model within this solution does not have very strong reporting functionality, which I would like to see improved.""The tool is expensive. It needs to refine its planning details.""Infor LN has customer support in India, but service could be improved. So, basically, they prioritize agreements, and the number of tickets closed within a certain timeframe, not necessarily the quality or resolution of the tickets themselves. They just open and close them, sometimes without even understanding the issue. That's the biggest problem.""The user interface is not very intuitive for newer users.""The interface can be difficult sometimes. I need to apply a bar code system, such as business intelligence and user interface tools. The user has to be a technician sometimes to use it."

"Reporting and analytics features must be improved.""I would like to see more flexibility in the customization for us to be able to customize it based on the client's requirements."
