Ridder iQ vs. Infor LN

Ridder iQ is very good to use for normal processes in the making industry. You can easily customize it with calculated and custom fields and widgets. But more extensive customizing is more difficult. You need to be able to programm and the integration of other software/webapps is difficult. Therefore the no/low code functionality and api endpoints of Ridder iQ should be extended. Ridder iQ is unfortunately not to use on a smartphone of something like that.

Infor ERP LN supports all discrete manufacturing processes including engineer-to-order, configure-to-order, project-based, make-to-order, and make-to-stock. If your company is a process manufacturing company, it may not be the best ERP for you.

• As a global organization, we deal with many languages and some software localizations. Infor ERP LN has 21 language packs and a software localization for the countries where Bray operates that need one (Argentina, Colombia, Chile, Peru, Poland, Russia, and India).
• We need flexibility, versatility, and visibility in our operations and financials. Infor ERP LN delivers most of what Bray needs in a standard ERP system, allowing us to operate without the need for complex software functionality customizations and/or personalizations.
• Infor ERP LN has an easy-to-learn, easy-to-use, user-friendly GUI.

• Trouble shooting/call center is worthless. In the past we had a question and this will be solved. Now we have a question and we are called back a couple of days later and very often they can solve it but are not allowed to solve it and you need to pay for a consultant
• Pricing is very high, for every stupid things we need to pay the top price
• Information is not always good. We bought a new system and wanted to install this (Kronos). Asked several times to have some information about the installation. I received nothing and the asnwer was that we needed a consultant (read we need to pay). At the end I solved it by myself and that was rather easy.

• Infor ERP LN could have a better way of handling single sign-on (SSO) capabilities.
• Infor ERP LN could improve its GUI by not using Java as its platform, using HTML5 instead. I know Infor is already working on it.
• Infor ERP LN could improve the way you can "kill" a user license (needed when trying to disconnect a user without leaving in the background "defunct" processes).

Overall Ridder iQ is good to use. You can easily do small customizations to fields, screens, widgets, etc. There is also room for improvements to be able to easily adapt rights in roles, more no/low code functionality, webbased iQ, api endpoints, etc.

Ridder iQ is specialized for our business and has people who bring a lot of knowledge to the table, so Ridder iQ is far more suited than a ERP solution which is not specilized in the make-industry. Furthermore, the customizability of Ridder stands out compared to solutions like ISAH. Therefore, the choice was an easy one, because knowledge and customizability are important criteria.

• Some employees continue to find it a difficult program and I think this is partly because the options seem endless and it is sometimes difficult to find the right layout. This also applies to me as an administrator, many options, which is of course also positive. with the downside that it is sometimes difficult to search within Ridder IQ

Incentivized

• Quick migration from different ERP systems and legacy systems to Infor ERP LN.
• Increased employee efficiency.
