Overall Satisfaction with Epicor ERP

We use Epicor across our entire organization, covering our entire quote-to-cash process. Regarding business problems, we primarily use Epicor to manage manufacturing execution and provide financial analysis. Epicor provides data and reporting features that we use many functions.

Pros

  • Out of the box functionality -- one program with everything you need to run the business
  • Ability to build BPMs rather than full-scale customizations
  • Knowledgeable implementation team

Cons

  • More robust in-program training features
  • Better coordination between operational and financial implementation consultants
  • More robust purchasing/materials procurement module with an out-of-the-box capability to manage purchases by PPV
  • Allows us to make better product decisions
We have benefited greatly from the dashboards and reports. Our prior ERP did not have the ability to build the custom dashboards that we're able to create in Epicor.
Planning and scheduling have been made much simpler by Epicor.
Allows us to balance the decision between cost and convenience.
Epicor ERP is very strong for our multi-site manufacturing business, where we need to set up multiple machining resource centers within Epicor. I'm not sure it would be as appropriate for a services business or a business that is more project-based. For our product-based environment, Epicor ERP is a really solid solution.
