DELMIA Apriso vs. Lightspeed Retail

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

It is perfect for any small business looking for inventory control, Tracking purchase history, and just an all round easy to use software for retail and beyond. I would not use it if I have only a few hundred items or was a larger company that can afford to build my own POS software.

• quality inspection setup, definition, execution and results recording
• work instruction association to specific work orders according to custom parameters
• execution of work order on mobile terminals

• Lightspeed Retail has great reports that are very easy to read and understand.
• Lightspeed Retail is great to train new employees on because of its ease of use. There are not lots of different things that you have to learn just basics.

• standard functionalities could be more advanced
• configuration of the system is complex
• flexibility comes with the cost of continue development

• With a larger SKU assortment size, the software really starts to struggle with doing physical inventory after scanning in a few hundred items.
• Several times throughout each year Lightspeed went down on us (not our internet connection but actually Lightspeed verified).
• Special order system could use a lot of modern improvements (ability to schedule ahead of time, etc.)
• Reports are very basic, and will likely require there Lightspeed Analytics to actually get reports useful for day to day operations.
• Weak system for receiving purchase orders.
• Does not handle items and cases for reordering very well. Have used multiple Point of Sale systems in the past 10 years that allow to set reorder points based on single items, but reorder the case automatically, Lightspeed has no support for this.

I gave the rating of a 9 because ninety percent of the time when I talk to their support they're very helpful. One of the only real issues I have is there are times where the queue will be 7-9 people deep. When you have an error you don't know how to fix, sometimes this is very troubling. But overall their support is usually quick and friendly.

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

Lightspeed is faster, sleeker and more modern than our previous POS system. I can’t express enough how easy the online store portion of Lightspeed is - it just intuitive and sometimes, is TOO easy, I feel like I have to be forgetting something. Lightspeed is staying modern and current where our previous POS was not

• Faster processing through tills means happier customers and more sales per hour.
• Expensive product at $5K a year has taken away some profitability for this small business. It's way, way over priced.
