Acumatica vs. Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne

Acumatica works well for medium to large businesses with strong accounting procedures in place, it is a program for those companies that have outgrown Sage50 or QuickBooks Desktop and need to take their Finance software to the next level. The added complexity and some of the restrictions that come with robust finance software would likely be a burden on smaller organizations. Being an Acumatica Construction user, the Construction version specifically is well suited to any construction company that wants to take the leap to digitizing their construction processes.

We used Acumatica Support directly for the first year or so. Overall it's pretty good, but sometimes the support staff wasn't educated on the customizations we had, nor was I as the Customer as I couldn't remember which things were customized and which things were out of the box, so when there was an error, there were some misunderstandings.

We currently use ADP and Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne. Because Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is so costly for payroll processing we have had to use ADP to finish up the processing of payroll. We use ADP for direct deposits and recording manual checks. ADP is not as user-friendly but is still a good software.
