Overall Satisfaction with Infor CloudSuite ERP

We are using M3, Ming.le, and Document Management.
It serves as our main ERP, and we use it for everything. Almost all things go through M3 at ESAB Europe. Orders, bookkeeping, claims (well, in this term, halfly), accounts payable and receivable & cash collection all happen through this.
Plus, in Europe, we need to connect everything - or customise them to be able to get connected - to this.

Pros

  • Order handling
  • Cash collection
  • Basic bookkeeping

Cons

  • Connectibility to other systems
  • Exception handling
  • AP & invoice management
  • Advanced bookkeeping needs
  • Task management
  • Workflow management
  • we have a much better inventory tracking therefore able to meet the requirements coming fmor o2c
  • order handling is smoother since we have almost visual control over it
  • the different GAAPs can be included - like US. and locals (great for statutory reporting)
This tool can be used by various departments, but it is heavily recommended to have great documentation of implementation, so in later situations you can build on the knowledge shared/acquired there.
Also, the tool can do many things - and can't do many - but as I said, if you have used papers and Excel before, this would be a huge step towards digitalisation and transparency. Both of which are important nowadays.
THey are rather different, but whilst BlackLine is able to be connected with many things - M3 is not on that side of the road.
Compared to BlackLine, m3 is a bit more robust I must admit - however, nowadays this can not be an excuse for lack of flexibility.

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Infor CloudSuite ERP again?

No

I gave a 5 because i have seen colleagues from companies we have bought working with papers and excels plus emails. Now, compared to that, Infor ERP solutions are saviors from heaven. However, if I compare it to Oracle or SAP... meh, let's just not get into it. My main problem with it is the lack of possibility to connect it with other systems [like group reporting systems, automation tools, workflow options]. It is simply having such a different 'way-of-coding' that you have a real hard time if you want to automate a process which touches M3. Like an automatic workflow. Or to book journals with the help of RPA [robotics]. Simply put, this could be a great 'get-into-the-ERP-business' tool, but not an advanced 'use-this-to-lead' kind of tool.
