Epicor BisTrack vs. Unanet ERP GovCon

Epicor BisTrack is well-suited for the following scenarios:

• Lumber Yard Management: useful for managing lumber yards, including inventory tracking, order processing, and sales. It helps businesses optimize stock levels, streamline customer orders, and track various lumber products efficiently - can combine with other warehouse management software
• Building Materials Distribution: It excels in businesses that distribute building materials, such as wholesalers and distributors. The software handles order management, pricing, and supply chain operations effectively - this is my company's main course of business Epicor BisTrack is not suited for the following scenario(s):
• Epicor BisTrack is pretty specific to the lumber and building materials industry, so it won't be suitable for usage outside of this industry.

Unanet is a great system and has really helped our managers gain more insight to their projects. We have faster timesheet completion rates which leads to faster billing. We have been very happy with the system but there are some trial and error scenarios where it takes us some time to actually get the data needed or use the system the way we need it to be utilized. Thankfully they do have a great support staff that assists with issues as they arise.

• The time keeping component works well. It gives a level of confidentiality we did not have in our previous home grown system.

• We can easily import billing information into our Financial system from Unanet, when previously we would manually enter this information.

• Easier User Interface; hard to navigate or learn
• Financial module could use improvement; i.e. the Accounts Receivable function is lacking and hard to find information easily
• More customization of the built-in reporting and analytics

Epicor BisTrack is essential for those in the lumber and building materials industry, especially if they are in the wholesale/distribution side of things. I provided the rating because I feel that BisTrack has contributed a lot for my company and provided with essential information for decision-making on a day-to-day basis. The score also reflects that while BisTrack is an essential software for my business, there is also room for improvement so that the end users will be able to obtain what they need from the software.

We were used to Deltek's Costpoint from the prior company and Unanet is far easier to use for users, accounting personnel, project managers, and corporate managers. Continuous enhancements lead us to believe that Unanet will be even better in meeting our needs.
