Overall Satisfaction with JDA

JDA software is used for Transportation Management, Logistics Procurement, and Data Analytics for strategic decision making as related to those modules used. It was implemented globally as a transparent global logistics solution. It has given insight into the alignment of scenarios that would optimize shipping lanes to consolidate volume. It better aligns the customer service experience contributing visibility to shipment status and proactively serving customer service expectations.
  • Great customer facing implementation team.
  • Predictable and communicated improvement processes.
  • Constant roll out of new features with a strong SIG committee.
  • At times they appear strained on the development side of the house.
  • At times they are to slow at issue resolution even when higher priority, which can impede the business process.
  • Support team is across the pond so reactivity is at times less than expected.
  • Alignment with customer service programs.
  • Visibility for optimization and transportation cost savings.
  • Vendor performance overviews.
The support team is overseas and the time zone differences can delay reactivity. The development team appears to overturn annually causing gaps in understanding of pending deliverables. There is also a learning curve that impedes expedited delivery of requested enhancements.

Do you think Blue Yonder Luminate Planning delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with Blue Yonder Luminate Planning's feature set?

Yes

Did Blue Yonder Luminate Planning live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Blue Yonder Luminate Planning go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Blue Yonder Luminate Planning again?

Yes

This is a great logistics tool. The data analytics portion of the SaaS solution is somewhat light and the out of box reporting is at times not relevant to the report. This requires heavy customization as an enhancement and can get very pricey if the reporting module is not vetted prior to implementation.
