Blue Yonder Luminate Planning vs. SAP Extended Warehouse Management

JDA WMS is a tier 1 solution for warehousing environments. Due to its price, it may not be suitable for smaller operations. Since the system allows for multiple clients, and since my company is a 3PL, JDA WMS works well for 3PL providers.

JDA WMS was a large step up from our legacy Infor solution. It filled many gaps that we couldn't fill with Infor's system. Rather than continuing to build solutions in-house to account for customer requirements, we decided to implement JDA WMS and use all of that system's capabilities to handled what we needed in our warehouses. Granted, Infor's solutions have probably improved since 2007 when we changed, but those were my experiences back when we changed WMS providers.

We were using non-sap product for managing the SAP Extended Warehouse Management which was not that great and flexible. In S4H 2023 version, SAP Extended Warehouse Management comes up with the features which was suitable for our business hence we implemented SAP Extended Warehouse Management. This was seamless integration has is embedded in HANA, we dont have to setup another instance and use the features of SAP Extended Warehouse Management
