"The product enables users to customize their dashboards and reports."

"Right now, it doesn't really have a good cloud story."

"There are some glitches in Epicor ERP."
"Epicor didn't care about user level and software applications. So, it's not so user-friendly for nontechnical people."
"The tool should provide a better user interface."
"There's a new version of the solution that has some bugginess. They're cleaning that up. The user interface is an area that needs improvement and they're improving."

"In the newer version of Epicor ERP, it's very difficult to find out that tracing."

"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."
"The implementation was completed within one month."
"There is also slowness in database backup."
