    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.

    I like it i think it makes the whole buying journey really smooth for the end customers , it’s easy to use for baristas and it’s actually better than most software’s out there.
    But the service is not great , for simplest if things they take too much time to rectify , i mean the live line for ordering related issues is good it’s more technical glitches and installation related issues that take more time.

    Pros
    Blue Yonder (formerly JDA Software Group)
    • Cycle counting--great feature for inventory accuracy.
    • System directed put-away--system directs driver where to store and put materials away, keeps a warehouse in tip-top shape.
    • CNZ-Count near Zero, actually set at count at zero, when a bayrow emtys out, prompts fork driver to verify that the bayrow is actually empty by doing a cycle count....great for inventory accuracy!

    Cons
    Blue Yonder (formerly JDA Software Group)
    • 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.

    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.

    I like the usability, for customers it’s easy to use even for admins it’s easy to extract reports , analyse performance. I didn’t give it 2 points because I think a lot of features can be added and the service can be improved. Also modules like inventory are too complicated for the users to do it themselves the team should take the initiative of getting it setup or have an easier way of getting started on that

    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.

    It was better priced , had more features and ease to use. It’s suited for all size of business. Especially smaller , all digital businesses. I also evaluated a few other tools and I remember Rista being an easy choice because i wanted the order confirmation and bills to go on WhatsApp and not messages which not a lot of these software’s were offering .

    • So i save cost of one billing resource that’s let’s say 15k per month per outlet where i pay Rista double that amount for a year so my 10month resource cost is saved
    • Negative impact which i think is very niches people feel hesitant to share their number and i think Rista should add a feature where sharing number isn’t compulsory as not everyone’s comfortable sharing their mobile number
    • The entire inventory module is too complicated to setup so while i have it for the past 2 years i still haven’t configured it
