Patrick Abi Habib - PeerSpot reviewer
IFS Applications & Data Migration consultant at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees

I do data migration on IFS, mostly on V10, V8, and V9, and I'm starting to get on the cloud. I also work as a functional consultant on the project and electronic document management modules. These are my two feeds as a functional consultant.

IFS Applications Consultant at Zest Business Process Management Ltd

The solution is an ERP. I work for multiple clients, and all of those clients are in different sectors. I do see most businesses take it on and use it as a full business management suite of software. It covers every aspect from human resources through to any operational purchasing, buying, contract, and project management and full finance and reporting suites.

For the most part, in all of my experiences with IFS, when a company embarks on using an ERP of this significance, it tends to be the main tool the business then aligns itself with and uses to run.

ERP Systems Analyst at a manufacturing company with 1,001-5,000 employees

We were in an MRP manufacturing environment, and as time and technology moved on in the mid-2000s, it was time to move up to a true ERP system. It was pretty much a no-brainer to use IFS. We looked in the marketplace and found that IFS matched what we did as a project company, and that's how I got started in IFS. I've never really touched another ERP system.

We have the standard package and most of the modules. We don't do any MRO, and we don't have the vehicle package or fleet maintenance. 

We're using version 10. The solution is deployed on a public cloud through AWS.

We have more than 500 regular users.

We have plans to implement IFS in other areas. We have a new company that can leverage areas of IFS that we're not fully into.

Supply Chain Manager, Proxy, Matw Global D&I Council Memeber at SAUERESSIG Group

I check IFS Applications for information, mainly its archives and employee database. I'm still working on a project for a polygraph company, which still has some technical information in IFS Applications. As a regular ERP system used daily for the business, I last used IFS Applications in 2019 because my company now uses SAP, but I still use IFS Applications from time to time.

In 2019, I was a planning manager, and I used IFS Applications to create a production plan and check the production from a planning point of view, and that was my most significant use case for the solution.

I used to be an implementation coordinator and after that, an IFS administrator in a big production company in Poland. Implementation included HR, Payroll, Finances, Production, CRM, sales, inventory, supply, projects, documentation, maintenance, and services, as well as quality management. 

We used almost all of the modules which were available when we signed an agreement at the end of 2015. I'm not working for the company now; however, as far as I know, there are plans to update IFS Applications 9 to IFS Cloud.

Senior Consultant at a tech services company with 11-50 employees

I would refer to the multipurpose system as one that can be scaled to fit different companies and their various business needs. I have worked closely with companies that use the solution for both manufacturing and service. Service in particular is an area where the solution excels. For example, a company that builds machinery could use it for after-market sales and maintenance.

Sr. Project Consultant (IFS-Complex MRO Process) at a tech vendor with 51-200 employees

I'm working on UPD 12 and IFS cloud applications. IFS has multiple product lines from ERP systems to Enterprise Asset Management and service management system. They also offer a maintenance module, provide operational inclusion software, and R&D. These are their main offerings. I have used this application in two industries, predominantly in manufacturing and aero defense. Both sectors have successfully deployed this solution. So far, we have good testimonies from Emirates Airlines, Lockheed Martin, and many other regional players who are into independent fleet management or MRO kind of services.
