We performed a comparison between Infor M3 and PeopleSoft based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two ERP solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Infor comes up with different tools every year, and they are all compatible with Infor M3, which makes it a more reliable and trustworthy tool. The integration is very smooth."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to cover different types of activities, and the requirement for maintenance and data is very low."
"It's simple to use. You don't need any complex training to use it."
"Infor M3 has tailor-made packages for each and every industry."
"The user interface and user experience were good."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"provides all modules, supply chain, HR - it's good for management."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the Infor GL tool that allows us to do our application support and development."
"I like the speed of the processing and how easy it is to use."
"It's very fully featured. It has more features and more configurability than SAP."
"PeopleSoft is scalable."
"I'd like PeopleSoft to be like on the cloud and more mobile-friendly. If I try to access it from a cell phone, it's a bit difficult, so it would be great if PeopleSoft could improve these features."
"In general, this solution is user friendly and also performs well. There are two types of forms. One is a standardized form, which you can define things into. The other, you can customize so more repetition can be done in an even manner. That way, it can be designed for what the public or user actually wants. It's not very tough for any person, or layman to understand exactly what the screen requires one to do."
"A valuable feature is HCM."
"Stability-wise, it is a good tool."
"The most valuable feature for us is the integration between the HR Payroll and Financials modules"
"It should be improved in terms of procurement of the supply chain and business intelligence analysis. We have the Infor BI tool, but it's more complex to use than, for example, Power Pivot or QlikView in the market."
"The solution is stable but not agile."
"Infor should create one product to handle the whole business. At present, they make ERP systems for each type of business, and then sell additional features. I would like to have one system handing all organizations or all the business in deep ways and not have to buy additional features."
"Sometimes, M3 alone cannot handle all the planning functionalities required by a customer. It has to be used along with industry-specific planning tools because M3 doesn't have all the features. However, no product can handle all the requirements of all the industries. There will be some shortcomings in all the products. Though this is an area for improvement, it is not a very serious shortfall or limitation. It can be covered by using third-party planning applications that integrate with Infor M3."
"It would be great if Infor added some new workflows in the finance module. I'd also like to see better integration with third-party applications."
"The implementation could be simplified, it's complex."
"We can't make modifications to fit the client's requirements."
"An area for improvement in Infor M3 is training. There should be more training resources available for clients. Clients also find it challenging to get consultants or integrators for Infor M3. The product doesn't have enough resources in the market to help clients."
"On the other hand, the more recent push for standardization precludes customized approaches to certain industry requirements."
"The solution needs to work on its mobile technology. We're hoping in the next version we're working on implementing, 9.2, will have more of this."
"The Time and Labor module is not that flexible."
"Global payroll could be easier to use."
"My developers want to use more HTML instead of the specialized tool, PeopleTools because, they say, it's better from a user perspective."
"The whole systematic flow of any query raised to HR should be improved."
"Areas that need improvement are the add-ons to the fluid pages and additional features in SCM and finance, both functionally and technically."
"It would be helpful for the end-user if the reports were customized. They would be able to select the fields while generating their reports."
