Overall Satisfaction with Infor Adage

Adage runs our three divisions, we manage all of our business including purchasing, inventory, and financials. EDI and Freight systems are add-ins. We rely on it extensively to manage our business.

Pros

  • Adage is excellent at inventory management, it can easily manage multiple division and complex transfers. It keeps good records.
  • The package is seamless, and the operator sees a unified interface. Once they learn the way to work with the system, learning other parts of the package becomes self-intuitive.
  • Being developed in SQL server makes it easy to develop custom reporting and business dashboards for analytics. Development tools and people are readily available.

Cons

  • Infor has moved onto their new manufacturing package, so they have slowed in their development of Adage, and the user interface is a bit dated, but functional. It could use a technical refresh on the operator screens and access. It is not web based.
  • Integration with EDI is weak. There is poor support for ASNs (Advanced Ship Noticies) and freight management has to be brought in from the outside.
  • Security takes a while to update and administer.
  • It's scaled well with our company, and we haven't seen the need to switch packages, it works well for us.
  • Our IT staff doesn't spend time fighting application or data failures, it's a clean running package (we have an IT staff of 3).
  • We can get our work done, and it handles business loads well.
Adage is much cheaper to operate, scales well, and just keeps running smoothly. Doesn't require a huge support staff.
It is a factory process ERP suitable for flow manufacturing, perhaps the best in its class for functionality and value. Great for medium sized manufacturers.. especially food manufacturers.
