    Netstock is brilliant for organizing your data in a readable, visual layout that's easy to understand and use to base decision-making on. For individual items, it's excellent, and there is loads of functionality to manage safety stock and lead times. Where I've seen it struggle a bit is with families of items that share an MOQ; it calculates demand at the individual SKU level and isn't as good at managing it at the family level.

    For retail, logistics and manufacturing industry business cases, I think SAP Supply Chain Management is very well suited. GATP backorder processing, forecasting, scheduling, product availability check, rule based ATP checks are specific scenarios in which it is well suited.

    • Availability of different statistical forecasting methods covering different patterns i.e. Trend, Cyclical, Seasonal and Irregularity.
    • Different modules to cater to different business requirement ranging from long-term need (Demand Planning), Medium Term (Supply Planning), Short Term (Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling).
    • Easy integration with core ERP for transfer of master and transaction data. Planning specific functions can be executed in SAP APO while execution can still be carried out in core ERP suite.

    Cons
    Netstock
    • The Family MOQ is not taken into account with the look-forward days within the container builder, so this add-on does not work very well.
    • It's not possible to build your own CSV export of reports that you regularly run. The report builder doesn't let you save a set of filters or parameters; it's too basic.

    • When moving from non-SAP to SAP solution for Supply Chain Management-APO, it may take some time for business users to get use to, as solution provided in user interface sometime seems complex.
    • For track and trace solution within SAP Supply Chain Management has scarcity of good resources especially when you want to track custom objects with complex use cases.

    Usability
    Netstock
    This is one of their strength, Netstock is very easy to use and although it is rigid in its functionalities, that is what is good about it, we could not customise it the way you used to work, it forced us to adapt our processes and the way we work

    Netstock was much easier to use and that was important for our team as this was a significant digital change in our processes. We had a list of features we wanted and Netstock had more than 90% of them which contributed to the decision to go with this plug and play solution rather than a fully bespoke platform. We also liked that Netstock already had an API with Cin7

    SAP provides an extensive product suite with its SCM and has functionalities to cater to different industries. Supply chain planning is divided into several steps, some of which are executed by components in SAP ECC and others by components in SAP SCM. It is possible and advisable to integrate these two systems and to use them together for planning. System integration takes place using the Core Interface (CIF). Even though As/400 remains a critical part of the computing infrastructure for many of the global organizations, ease of scalability, integration with cloud, advanced planning and analytics functionality and availability of strong talents make SAP SCM a better choice.
