Expandable vs. Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne

Expandable fits our companies needs quite well to manage inventory, sales orders, and purchasing. We recently started to also use Expandable to track ECN changes. The ECN functionality is a little limited in the fact it is difficult to add descriptions or parts affected after it has been implemented. I would recommend having an additional program for managing ECN history

• The new versions (9.2) of JDE has so much open functionality and really gives the user control over the screens and what they want to see. Love that the layout of the screen is really up to the user and what they want to see it along with freezing columns and creating favorites for way access.
• It is so flexible with the system platforms that it can run on and so easy to customize since it supports so many databases.
• It is intuitive and does not need to have a lot of training on how to use the software.
• It's just a great ERP software and one of the better ones I've seen.
• Oracle is FINALLY starting to listen to the users and SIGs and putting enhancements into the system which makes life easier for us business users.

• Data entry on certain tasks can be very tedious (for example effected parts on an ECN)
• Sometimes data connections for upload are very slow or just flat out fail multiple times. The problem is intermittent so difficult for support to track and fix
• Certain fields cannot be pulled on a report and require engineering time to create a process to add functionality. It would be nice to have unfiltered access to all fields

• The Configurable Network Language (CNC) is a proprietary protocol, and it can be difficult to source resources that understand this language well.
• It has some inherent limitations with generating PDF or printable files. Most organizations use a third party platform like Creat!form or Bottomline to solve this.
• No built in credit card processing solution, and no plug-and-play eCommerce or webstore capabilities available.

It is simple to use and implement as compared to complex softwares in the market that may take ample amount of time to implement. The budget is also slightly less to provide the same functionality that other softwares are providing. Also having Oracle database that comes with the system is much easier to handle and use and have much security.
