Blue Yonder Luminate Logistics vs. logi-Cloud SaaS WMS vs. Manhattan Active® Supply Chain

The size and scope of the operation is the main question. In a smaller environment, or one that does not require a complex Warehouse Management Solution (WMS), RedPrairie may not be a good fit.

The logi-Cloud model is more suitable for the pieces handling operation model, regardless of B2B or B2C orders. With the barcode scanning function, inventory details are recorded one by one without errors. Ensure all the items are correctly picked in regards to the order. On the contrary, it is less appropriate for the CFS model.

Its a good product and its easy to interconnect with any other product seamlessly for the product optimization. Using Manhattan Active Supply Chain will increase warehouse productivity and equipment efficiency. It has a flexible approach in which companies can take advantages of the new features that are released by the Manhattan. Manhattan also has a great support team to help customers.

• Their implementation team was unable to provide examples where they successfully executed large scale multi site global deployments. May require strong client team or 3rd party implementation firm to ensure successful deployment and results.
• As of 3 years ago, their parcel shipping module was very new and unproven in marketplace.
• As of 3 years ago, Red Prairie had limited offering in modules that complement the WMS such as trading partner management and distributed order management. If you truly just need warehouse management capabilities this might not matter. For us, this meant we would need to involve more solution providers or internal development to address supply chain initiatives.

• The look and feel of dashboard, can be more professional
• Some bugs are still occur
• Does not support online payment via website, need to contact salesperson

• I don't get very many orders that have to be routed through this portal.
• If it has been a while since logging in, I have to request that my account be unlocked.
• While there was great functionality, the ability to custom tailor the platform to a unique business process was limited.

Again, the product was good. Customer service was OK at best. For any new installations or upgrades, I would seek a third party servicer/installer who would be more flexible in contract negotiations and provide service guarantees beyond what could expected with RedPrairie itself. If you choose to deal with RedPrairie directly, prepare for a lengthy negotiation process.

I found RedPraire to be the best system I have used of the years.

RedPrarie seems to have been better than Aloha. I will say that I used Aloha a very long time ago and it is probably light years ahead now. Aloha seemed to be a little more flexible in what you could do. The major downfall was you had a system that needed to be connected to the POS network directly on site that would be used only for reporting. This would require you to have another PC for computing needs. Like I said before, this is probably something that has changed in the newer world of Aloha.

Manhattan Active Supply Chain is user friendly and easy to navigate. It's good with inventory management. Small variances in inventory
can have big repercussions in your supply chain and I prefer to use a stable product, so I feel the best choice is Manhattan Active Supply Chain. Also the tool's good with planning and forecasting, it provides sophisticated tools that anticipate demand.
