Some reviewers express frustration with customer support and the implementation process. One reviewer describes being locked into a contract without receiving proactive assistance. Another reports a lack of communication after signing the contract for implementation.

“We attempted to cancel the service this year, but learned we had not given enough notice, so we are locked into another year. Still, no one is interested in seeing how the service can be used, and I have not heard of any attempts by Epicor associates to contact us to offer assistance on how the company could use the service.”
