Reporting & dashboard tools help us drill into decision making data faster and easier. The ability to customize Acumatica to fit our industry's workflow is a driving factor for why we chose them.

Inconvénients

I feel the standard WMS for Acumatica is lacking basic functions and sorting abilities. Had to heavily customize it to function the way we needed it to.

The ease of customization. Being able to customize any screen and workflow in Acumatica has been beyond beneficial.

Inconvénients

Mainly revolving around cost. Cost of updates, cost of customizations, the need to use a partner for all that charges for everything. Choose a partner wisely, can also affect implementation.

Avantages

How it is able to communicate with Avidpay back and forth. Adding new vendors is simple also.

Inconvénients

I feel like there are always ways that we can utilize Acumatica more within our company, I feel like I am continuing to learn.

Needed a more advanced and real-time system.

Pourquoi passer à Acumatica Cloud ERP

CFO & accounting team preferred Acumatica's features & ease of use.

Avantages

What I like about Acumatica is its flexibility and customization capabilities. This allows us to tailor our processes and workflows to fit our specific wants and needs. Additionally, the interface makes it easy for our team to navigate and utilize the system without the need for in-depth training. Availability of real-time data access and reporting tools is another great feature that has helped us tremendously.

Inconvénients

What I liked least about Acumatica Cloud ERP is that getting it set up was a bit of a headache. It took us quite a while to get everything configured the way we wanted, and we needed a lot of help from consultants. Plus, the system can be pretty overwhelming at first, and it took some time for our team to get the hang of it. We also ran into a few glitches and performance hiccups along the way, which was frustrating when we were just trying to keep things running smoothly.

Avantages

It's already Cloud and easy to use it so we can work in anywhere

Inconvénients

Interface is easy, but if we feel fail the process please let us know the reason of this matters

Avantages

It is simplistic and doesn't have a lot of design elements just to make it look appealing, keeping it functional without flare.

Inconvénients

At times, the simplistic design doesn't work in favor of faster and more efficient record keeping. The ability to go back in and update previously entered items can take longer than just creating a complete new entry.

Avantages

One platform incorporating all our transactions directly into the accounting and reporting side, easy to use

Inconvénients

The fact that the timecards do not have a separate module to close financial periods with but are included in the AP module.

One platform for project and financial accounting where every transaction naturally filters through to the other. No manual interfaces from other systems. Data is available and easy to analyse.

Pourquoi passer à Acumatica Cloud ERP

It offered a solution for our business where everything could be integrated into one system.

Avantages

User friendly. Ease of using. All around great product.

Inconvénients

Reports could be a little more user friendly and should be able to create new ones a little easier than we can at this time. Need to much support to create specialty reports. Sales tax reports should be a standard report for all companies.

Avantages

flexibility, modular and customizable at the user level.

Inconvénients

if the data field listed in the generic inquiry screen is editable without enter into the relevant screen i.e sales order screen, opportunities screen.

Avantages

Pace of new development and available functionality

Inconvénients

Upgrade Complexity and requirement for customisation for workflow changes

Avantages

Prowessness of the software in accounting and financial management.
The product is brilliant in governance and risk management.

Inconvénients

Acumatica Cloud ERP is designed for all sizes of businesses irrespective of their financial muscle. I have nothing against it.

Avantages

The ease of use and simplicity of the user interface. Very adaptable platform and has a growing API vendor list.

Inconvénients

Not as intuitive and lacks a large community database of support. There also aren't enough people trained to build out the architecture and a large dependence on 3rd party implementation/support.

Avantages

The system is very user friendly. Most of the screens have the ability to download to excel.

Inconvénients

The financial reporting could be improved. We are using the Velixo add on which gives us much more flexibility.

Avantages

ACUMATICA IS A HIGH QUALITY PRODUCT, EASY TO USE

Inconvénients

NVENTORY VALUATION AND HANDLING OF IMPORTED PRODUCTS, AND THE INITIAL BALANCES IN GENERAL LEDGER

Avantages

Acumatica is very customisable to a customers liking

Inconvénients

It can be a learning a curve for an implementer

Avantages

Acumatica is highly customizable and has a great support team. There is also alot of information available through Acumatica's learning material as well as forums where many answers are found.

Inconvénients

The most difficult part of Acumatica is if it's not fully brought on board and understood from the start, the cusomizations applied to the structure end up costing both time and money, because with each update, there's extra work to keep everything functioning the same. But, if you've got someone on your team who understands these sort of customizable cloud ERP systems, and the company, and this person is able to determine that Acumatica is a great fit, this is a great product for sure.

Avantages

I appreciate Acumatica's intuitive UI, accessibility (all you need is a device with internet), and customizability. As a developer, I've also found the forums and docs to be extremely helpful.

Inconvénients

Minor quality-of-life things can be a pain when using Acumatica daily. Things like getting logged out after a few minutes of inactivity, inability to change menu layout/sizing on some screens, etc. It's the little stuff that could be improved on.

Avantages

It's great that all changes are live, it's accessible from anywhere and through an app, and can have multiple users and project simultaneously.

Inconvénients

It's not the most user friendly for project management with budgets and change orders, could have a more logical flow of steps.

Avantages

Ease of Use, Accounts payable invoice routing.

Inconvénients

Creating Reports is not easy. It's not intuitive.

Avantages

The integration of business functions are the most useful components of Acumatica, bringing our finance and project management functions together. The software is easy to implement when working with a Acumatica Partner on the implementation process. To date all features we require have been found in Acumatica other than Payroll which is going live in Q4 2023.

Inconvénients

In order to be able to provide the robust reporting and project tracking features it is important to enter information very accurately, the learning curve for new users can be steep.

Better integration of business functions

Avantages

User interface is somewhat user-friendly. Wikis are helpful.

Inconvénients

Can be very hard to work with in a custom instance. Many modifications and customizations had to be made so that our organization could track inventory correctly on a item/strain basis.

Better supporting documentation and resources.

Avantages

Having a native cloud based software is an advantage.

Inconvénients

CRM is terrible and requires significant user input to generate important data. Manufacturing module is sold as robust but lacks several key features. Software requires significant "customization" to be impactful, user must verify that "customization" still works after every upgrade which is time consuming. Service Support module seems new and has required significant time to implement.

Initial cost was attractive but software was oversold with its capabilities. While upfront and monthly costs are important, companies should consider hidden costs from time consumption, slow rollout of "customization" and extremely high storage costs.

Avantages

Many processes are streamlined and delivered with documentation and unique added features not normally provided by ERP vendors.

Inconvénients

Some of the error messages are still being developed so they can be archaic at times. (not a lot).

Avantages

Inconvénients

Acumatica ERP software, in my experience, has been quite disappointing. It falls short in several areas, and I can't help but feel frustrated with its limitations. One major issue is the lack of basic reporting features right out of the box. Unlike other accounting software, there is no intuitive "drill down" function available anywhere in this ERP system. Instead, finding information requires a tedious search or running multiple reports on top of each other.What's worse is that certain essential reports are simply missing, forcing users to rely on costly implementation services to create custom reports. Even then, any necessary adjustments come with an additional financial burden. This lack of flexibility and the associated costs are significant drawbacks.The payroll system, a critical component of any ERP, is another letdown. Despite its high price tag, it fails to deliver reliable functionality. This can cause major disruptions to business operations and create unnecessary stress for users.Furthermore, when it comes to analyzing sales data and estimating costs and hours spent on a specific customer during the opportunity phase, Acumatica proves to be inadequate. The system lacks the necessary tools to input this information for opportunities, such as quotes or bids. This limitation severely hampers the ability to make informed business decisions.I could delve into more grievances, but it would only escalate my frustration. I do not recommend this system.
