Munis vs Oracle JD Edwards World

Likelihood to Recommend

Munis is great for any sort of data keeping and accounting work. There are features of Munis that I am still not familiar with even after 6 years of use. Munis would not be very good for a point of sale sort of operation like a retail store because it just simply is not set up for that sort of operation.

The payables module is great, easy access to what we owe and what we have paid to vendors. The flipside to this is the amount of invoices we have on certain accounts that we can't always access. The financial reports come out nicely and are easy to view, the easy accessibility to our users country-wide is nice.

It is very strong for reporting. Any business data can be generated in the form of reports. Automation can be achieved to send notifications to users by email.
From an implementation point of view the time spent in developing and implementing a new process is reduced and easy.
There is a huge flexibility to customize it as per you business needs.

One issue is the number of records I can access, wish it was more
We have large vendors with thousands of invoices, and I can't always get to them due to size.
Sometimes hard to change reports.

Return on Investment

Munis has prevented our office from needing multiple software programs to house all of our information.
All of our employees have access to the same information, on the same software.
Munis has made day-to-day operations smoother for our office because we are not constantly flipping between programs or software.
