Overall Satisfaction with Acumatica

Accounting. It makes it easy to process basic accounting functions.

Pros

  • Ap
  • Project tracking
  • Inventory
  • AR

Cons

  • Too many screens to look at simple things
  • Too many journal entries. Created one for every little thing, could be condensed
  • Project views are difficult to navigate. Things could be condensed for more ease of viewing and functionality
  • BETTER REPORTS AND EASIER TO NAVIGATE REPORTS
  • Helped manage our large volume of inventory better
  • Allowed us to manage and bill large shipments of inventory
Allowed us manage and bill very large projects. Helped us be more efficient in many areas. There is room for improvement but def had made many things easier.
We are a distributor or water meters and it helps us manage large projects
ACUMATICA IS DEFINATLY MUCH BETTER

Using Acumatica

25 - ALL ASPECTS OF OUR BUSINESS USE THE SOFTWARE.
  • ACCOUTING
  • PROJECT TRACKING
  • INVENTORY MANAGEMENT
  • INENTORY MANAGEMENT
  • AI
  • EVEN BETTER PROJECT TACKING/MANAGEMENT
BECAUSE WE HAVE INVESTED A LOT OF MONEY IN THE USE AND DEVELOPMENT OF THIS SOFTWARE TO TALOR IT TO OUR NEEDS

Evaluating Acumatica and Competitors

Yes - SHAREPOINT AND SAGE 50
  • Cloud Solutions
  • Integration with Other Systems
  • Ease of Use
THE ABILITY TO HANDLE LARGE VOLUMES OF INVENTORY
YES, WE WOULD DO A LOT MORE RESEARCH AND NOT TRUST EVERYTHING OUR PARTNER SAID. MANY THINGS THEY TOLD US TRUNED OUT DO NOT WORK THE WAY WE ANTICIPATED.

Acumatica Implementation

BE VERY CLEAR ABOUT WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR DURING DISCOVERY
  • Third-party professional services
  • Third-party professional services
NET @ WORK
Yes - TOO MANY TO LIST. STILL ON GOING. WE BASCIALLY WENT LIVE THEN TAILORED THE SYSTEM TO WORK HOW WE NEEDED.
Change management was a minor issue with the implementation - HOPE THAT YOUR PARTNER IS NOT BOUGHT OUT AND HAVE SEVERAL PERSONELLE CHANGES DURING YOUR IMPLEMENTATION. THIS WAS VERY CUMBERSOME AND WE HAD TO KEEP EXPLAINING THE SAME THE OVER AND OVER.
  • BUILDING OUT OUR PROJECT MANAGEMENT
  • TACKING OF OUR COMMISSION PAYMENTS
  • REPORTING

Acumatica Support

WE HAVE A PARTNER, THEY HAVE GOTTEN BETTER BUT IN THE BEGINNING IT WAS A NIGHTMARE
ProsCons
Kept well informed
Poor followup
Less knowledgeable
Problems left unsolved
Escalation required
Difficult to get immediate help
Need to explain problems multiple times
Support doesn't seem to care
Slow Initial Response
YES SO THAT WE COULD BUILD A SYSTEM THAT WOULD WORK FOR US. WE HAVE INVESTED A LOT OF MONEY AND TIME INTO THIS PRODUCT
ANYTIME WE HAVE HAD A BUG THAT WAS SENT UP TO ACUMATICA TO BE FIXED IT HAS BEEN DONE IN A VERY TIMLY FASHION.

Using Acumatica

SOME FUNCTIONS ARE VERY EASY AND OTHERS I FEEL ARE OVERLY COMPLICATED.
ProsCons
Like to use
Well integrated
Unnecessarily complex
Inconsistent
Slow to learn
Cumbersome
Lots to learn
  • AP BILL ENTRY
  • JOURNAL ENTRIES
  • PURCHASE RECEIPTS
  • AR
  • INVENTORY REPORTING

  • THE AMOUNT OF TRANSACTIONS CREATED IN THE BACKGROUND
  • THE NUMBER OF SCREENS YOU HAVE TO USE TO LOOK AT SOMETHING VERY SIMPLE
