DDI System vs. Infor Adage (Discontinued)

Unless you want to use every aspect of DDI for your company, I would not recommend their program. We have been unable to integrate their system with outside systems and even our website without having to pay for a "work around". If you do consider using other aspects of their offerings, make sure to get a trial of things like their CRM capabilities, as I have found them to be quite outdated in comparison to other programs

It is a factory process ERP suitable for flow manufacturing, perhaps the best in its class for functionality and value. Great for medium sized manufacturers.. especially food manufacturers.

• Calendar for the entire company to view
• Customer search by account number
• Sales order entry

• Stability, it reminds of a old COBOL system found in plants. It just runs and never stops.
• Established, Infor Adage made an A grade platform.
• Support, even though Infor Adage is not supporting it anymore, other companies are still developing add ons for it.

Incentivized

• Integration with other programs
• CRM program

• Infor has moved onto their new manufacturing package, so they have slowed in their development of Adage, and the user interface is a bit dated, but functional. It could use a technical refresh on the operator screens and access. It is not web based.
• Integration with EDI is weak. There is poor support for ASNs (Advanced Ship Noticies) and freight management has to be brought in from the outside.
• Security takes a while to update and administer.

My company had already been using DDI when I began working here a couple years ago

I was not here for when Adage was introduced but I can say having had experience with Oracle I can say that it can hold its own. When it gets down to, Adage is easier and cheaper to maintain then other ERP's. It can do the same tasks other ERP's can do and does them well.

Incentivized

• Not sure, management would know.

• It's scaled well with our company, and we haven't seen the need to switch packages, it works well for us.
• Our IT staff doesn't spend time fighting application or data failures, it's a clean running package (we have an IT staff of 3).
• We can get our work done, and it handles business loads well.
