Users have found the IFS software to be challenging initially, but also full of opportunities for their companies. It is being evaluated for its permanence within organizations and so far has received positive feedback. The software is widely used for managing tax reporting and customer credit management, making it an essential tool for financial departments. Reviewers who have used the software for many years endorse it as a strong system with extensive capabilities that can be easily adapted to different corporate settings. They recommend reaching out to other companies that use the software to evaluate its effectiveness in specific industries.

While IFS is highly recommended by users to other customers, it is important to consider the suitability of the software for different types of manufacturing processes. It is considered a great tool for mass producers, but less suitable for custom manufacturing. In terms of value for money, some users feel that there are better options available in the market. However, they acknowledge that IFS Cloud is a gold mine for businesses, as it allows every department to work on a single platform and collaborate efficiently to achieve company goals.

One aspect where users have expressed mixed sentiments is the user interface of the software. Some find it unintuitive and arduous to navigate, which can create a learning curve for new users. Despite this, users appreciate how IFS helps organize work in a systematic way and creates a smooth workflow, ultimately boosting productivity. It keeps track of every section of the organization and records everything involved from beginning to end, providing transparency and accountability across various processes.

Robust Reporting Capabilities: Many users have mentioned that the software makes reporting simple and offers various options for generating reports. This indicates that the software has robust reporting capabilities and provides flexibility in generating reports.

Expensive Pricing: Some users have found the pricing per consignment to be too expensive compared to other services, which has led them to believe that it does not provide a good value for their money.

Challenging Data Access and Permissions Setup: Reviewers have mentioned that accessing old data and setting up permissions in the software can be quite challenging. This difficulty has caused them frustration when trying to retrieve important information or manage user access effectively.

Difficult User Interface with Limited Customization: Users have expressed dissatisfaction with the user interface, stating that it is difficult to use and lacks customization options. They feel restricted by the lack of flexibility in tailoring the software to their specific needs and preferences.

I am using IFS Cloud in my organization to consult and support the industrial companies and their who use IFS Cloud as their Asset Management solution. To implement their project-based manufacturing business process, certain modules in IFS Cloud were implemented, and mapped with the processes. The use case mainly was the manufacturing, procurement, selling and maintaining of asset-type products.
  • Integration with other third-party application is easy and reliable
  • Product documentation is easy to follow for the new users
  • Web-based product
  • Rich look of user experience of the web-based interface
  • Some areas like HR and Payroll are not fully-suited within the solution
  • Error and issue handling/debugging is difficult
Being IFS Cloud a web-based interface/client and Cloud-based database, the performance seems to be strong, and the IT and infrastructure resources needed is less. Also, with IFS Cloud, customer have different choices of implementing/installing the product such as IFS-managed cloud, Customer-managed cloud and Customer-managed on-premise implementation, which can be selected based on customer's preference and needs.

  • Reduced the time taken for the users to prepare and generate reports since most are automatic with IFS Cloud
  • Increased the reliability and visibility of the inventory of the products from procurement of raw materials through the manufacturing of final product to delivering to customer's place
  • Took a considerable time configuring the roles and access of the users while implementation
User documentation of IFS Cloud is very well organized, and easy to follow. So, the time taken for the key business users to be trained is comparatively less. The integration with other well-suited third-party applications for HR and Payroll has been standardized and easy to setup, because of the REST APIs.
Besides for the comparatively not-much rich user experience, and the time-consuming setup of the user permission and roles configuration, other functionalities and features provided by IFS Cloud is efficient compared to other enterprise software. Being fully-suited with almost every module for an industrial company, and providing API facilities for HR and Payroll integrations, IFS Cloud can be recommended.
IFS Support for IFS Cloud product has different levels of support agreement with the customers, including 24*7 support service for the product. Since the customers have the option of selecting IFS-managed cloud for the implementation, all of the responsivities for maintaining the managed services can be handed over to IFS.
