Cin7 Core vs. DELMIA Apriso

The production module systems that is offered by DEAR Systems is very good but a criticism is that it is tailored to non-variable production e.g., assembling a bike. If the output is variable e.g., dehydrating then the system is a bit challenging to use and can lead to inaccurate stock levels.

generally speaking the tool is well suited in complex manufacturing execution environments because there are several features which can be enabled or developed to accomplish business requirements and needs, but on the other hand it means that the standard product is not suitable to cover standard complex scenario in a manufacturing company unless big effort is spent in the development and configuration phase

Terrible support, absolutely useless for anything more major than a simple navigational problem. They always provide meaningless responses that don't really address the issue such as, "our engineering department is working on the issue" or "we're working on some optimisation". These responses would be fine if anything actually resulted from them, but the same errors and problems have existed for 4 years so I don't believe they really amount to anything. In addition, they're quite pushy for me to "close your ticket" so it can be marked as resolved, but my issue hasn't been resolved. I don't exactly want to leave my ticket open for several months, but they send me consistent reminders to close the ticket which is obnoxious especially since their resolution was "our engineering department will work on it".

DEAR Systems is much better software compared to Xero. The inventory tracking within Xero doesn't record batch dates and isn't really capable of production modules. Additionally, Xero doesn't have pricing tiers within invoicing, which is a very helpful feature offered by DEAR Systems. If a business has any level of complexity than DEAR Systems is a significantly more capable software.

because of the dassault environment integration. in fact there are several tools, for PLM, industrialization, planning and scheduling, CAD design and other tools all belonging to the Dassault environment, which can be integrated in one unique platform or at least they can theoretically exchange information between them in a easier/faster way

• Reduced invoicing admin
• Better cogs reporting
