    Aptean
    Aptean Food & Beverage ERP is an exceptional platform and has transformed the way we do business here in the office. The software is layered and very detailed, for better or worse. The average person with basic technology skills may struggle a bit, but then that opens the door for more advanced training opportunities. Its accuracy is dependent on human intelligence and attention to detail.

    Cons
    Aptean
    • Determining specifically what date an item was last purchased from a customer. Item Tracking Entries are helpful, but it would be even more beneficial if it had the Shipment Date field instead of Expiration.
    • Sometimes field names change as they go from orders to posted. Continuity would make things crystal clear.

    Usability
    Aptean
    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

    Aptean
    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.

    Aptean
    We formerly used Great Plains which I believe now is discontinued and therefore obviously no longer supported. That particular system was archaic in design and extremely clunky to operate. We were looking for a modern system with the capability of inventory tracking. Aptean's initial sales team that we interacted with was knowledgeable and confident that we'd be satisfied.
