Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Our clients appreciate the financial part of the solution, which is usually very complex. The Spanish localization is also very good.""The initial setup is easy.""I like the tool’s multisite functionality.""LN is definitely a stable product. It's number one on Gartner's four quadrants.""Material planning and predictive planning are both essential aspects.""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.""We have definitely seen a return on our investment with the product.""It has strong sales, purchase, warehousing, and logistics order management."

Cons
"It's not that intuitive.""The user interface needs to be improved.""When you have a bug in the system, you get some kind of alert. They should explain those alerts more.""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.""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.""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.""The finance model within this solution does not have very strong reporting functionality, which I would like to see improved."
