"The most valuable features are manufacturing, and manufacturing costing modules. These are all powerful features of Infor LN."
"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 initial setup is easy."
"The most valuable feature is its ability to handle products with up to 2,500 components, making it valuable for streamlining complex business operations."
"We have definitely seen a return on our investment with the product."
"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."
"Supply Chain Management is an excellent feature."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Dynamics AX is that it fulfills our requirements. We haven't had any issues with performance."
"Dynamics AX provides a lot of functionality."
"I like that it's a complete ERP solution from production level to branch level."
"AX is nearly a Tier One product, so implementations are long, but there's a lot of flexibility. Also, the ability to handle different issues found in larger organizations."
"This solution's most valuable feature is its workflow for purchase orders and inventory."
"The most valuable features of Microsoft Dynamics AX are ease of use and performance."
"We're using the solution for financial modules, specifically focusing on consolidation, financial configuration, management reporting for warehousing, sales. Most of the features of Microsoft Dynamics AX are good. The overall structure and functions are great. The solution is stable. The initial setup is straightforward."
"It's not that intuitive."
"The user interface is not very intuitive for newer users."
"When you have a bug in the system, you get some kind of alert. They should explain those alerts more."
"In general, the HR-related part of Infor LN doesn't work properly in Germany, making it an area that requires improvement."
"From a customers' perspective, Infor LN covers most of the processes in the company, but sometimes, they have to choose other tools because of the functionality or the cost of the Infor solution. It covers the core functions of the company—such as financial, operations, logistics, and so on—very well, but it doesn't cover some parts such as invoices, digitization, etc."
"The tool is expensive. It needs to refine its planning details."
"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."
"There are so many errors."
"The implementation was completed within one month."
"If I had to add something in the next release, it would probably be a mobile application for a sister application of Dynamics 365; not the ERP but the Dynamics 365 HR solution. It would definitely help if we could have Microsoft or a Microsoft partner introduce a mobile application for it."
"At times there are issues related to reporting, sometimes with the integration between two or three modules, and sometimes to the logic itself."
"There is room for improvement when handling various currencies within the current Microsoft Dynamics AX system."
"AX does take some time and maintenance."
"The UI has room for improvement and can be more user-friendly."
"The on-premises and desktop versions are not user-friendly."
