It's from Apps 9, but it brings more flexibility in usage, especially around different devices, such as mobile usage, which doesn't restrict you from using a computer. We are it for the HR side, and it's proving quite good. It has a new modern feel to it similar to a standard cloud application which enhances the user experience."

"The product’s current version could be easier and straightforward to work with small IT organizations, similar to the older version."
"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."
"Technical support could be improved."
"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."
"IFS uses Crystal Report mostly, which isn't too user-friendly. Developing reports isn't easy and requires a lot of dev time. Since SAP bought it, Crystal Report has become more complicated to use on IFS. You have a dashboard for reporting that is good, but it's incomplete. Most of our clients use Power BI or some additional tooling for BI."
"IFS Applications is not robust enough to handle high-volume transactions, so it's not suitable for larger enterprises."
"Aspects of HR and payroll could be better."
"Customization needs to be improved."
