Logility vs. Valogix Inventory Planner

How well the system is going to match with the company's business.

Valogix is a good tool for a mid to large sized business who has a lot of SKUs and much data that needs to be analyzed to determine supply. It is best used by savvy people, as there is quite a learning curve to it. It integrates well with NetSuite, though I cannot speak to how well it may integrate with other ERP systems.

Need more time to prove that the system really helps the company.

I didn't make the decision to select Logility.

Compared to NetSuite's default demand planning module, Valogix shines. NetSuite's product is very weak, very manually-driven, and does not provide the precise level of control that Valogix does. We used NetSuite's module for a while before realizing it wouldn't work for us whatsoever. It might work for you if you have a simple product setup, few SKUs and only one location. But in that case, you probably don't need demand planning software anyway.

Incentivized

• Improved inventory control.
• Save time by reducing the manual work.

• It has begun to reduce time for us taken up by running manual spreadsheet calculations.
• The training was time-consuming and difficult to onboard new users when we had turnover.
