Aptean Food & Beverage ERP vs. Unanet ERP GovCon

I would highly recommend Aptean Food and Beverage to any colleague in the Food industry. The ERP is specially designed for Food Manufacturing and it does it very well.

Unanet is a great system and has really helped our managers gain more insight to their projects. We have faster timesheet completion rates which leads to faster billing. We have been very happy with the system but there are some trial and error scenarios where it takes us some time to actually get the data needed or use the system the way we need it to be utilized. Thankfully they do have a great support staff that assists with issues as they arise.

• Accounts Payable system is well integrated and easy to use
• Accounts Receivable is the same as Account Payable. Easy to reconcile with the bank
• Tracking of inventory and recording of inventory is well managed by aptean
• Submitting and recording Purchase Orders is very well integrated with Inventory and Accounts Payable.

• The time keeping component works well. It gives a level of confidentiality we did not have in our previous home grown system.
• We are able to set up projects based on a number of criteria, allowing us to differentiate for reporting purposes.
• We can easily import billing information into our Financial system from Unanet, when previously we would manually enter this information.

Incentivized

• The Quality Assurance Module needs some better integration with inventory. We still do this process manually
• The Maintenance module needs the same work as the Quality Assurance Module
• The Warehouse Module does sometimes get a bit wonky, but overall is okay.

• Would like to be able to search for users by first name as well as last name.
• Would like to be able to modify save and share some of the canned reports.

I gave this Rating to Aptean due to the many great functions it has and how specially designed it is for food manufacturing. The customer support however, sometimes gets a bit irritating

Support for the product is good, but very complicated via ticket process. And emergency tickets dont get resolved right away which then halts usage of the system.

The support of Unanet is incredible, A simple email to their support team always gets a response in less than 24 hours and is really solutions focused. Unanet support is the best out there- guaranteed

Aptean blows QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise out of the water. Everything Aptean does compared to Quickbooks is 100x better in all aspects from AP, to AR, to inventory management, to purchase orders

We were used to Deltek's Costpoint from the prior company and Unanet is far easier to use for users, accounting personnel, project managers, and corporate managers. Continuous enhancements lead us to believe that Unanet will be even better in meeting our needs.
