iplicit

Avantages

iplicit is a modern flexible system with great support. It is cloud based so can be accessed easily from anywhere. It's intuitive to use, transparent and has powerful reporting capabilities.
There is a development roadmap which as a user I feel able to influence. Regular system updates are seamlessly deployed alongside monthly user webinars. This user education is really helpful, enabling us to be kept informed of new features as well as maximising existing functionality.

Inconvénients

The stock management module is adequate but I think needs more development. The valuation methods available are Average and Standard, not FIFO. Valuations have to be run at month end rather than being perpetual.

Avantages

Iplicit is not a difficult system to use. The way it is built allows it to be tailored to the needs of the business and it works really well. Everything that was sold to us in terms of the way it would work is the reality we experience in using the system.

Inconvénients

It can be inflexible when looking at the approval process. This does not necessarily make it bad, but it is something that you must think about when processing invoices if you do not use purchase orders.

Avantages

Multiple time saving features, that allow us information input and extraction much faster & simpler.

Inconvénients

Setup to our requirement did require back and forth with implementation team. However, all queries and requirements were addressed.

Avantages

The reports that are pre set up and the reports you can create

Inconvénients

Occasionally having to reload rather than refresh, also takes a while to get used to the system

Avantages

The system is very logical and user friendly once you know how. The support team are speedy and helpful and the development team take on board suggestions and are always looking for ways to improve functionality.

Inconvénients

Our system needed some complex, bespoke elements and the dev team created some great custom attributes and reports. Unfortunately, these are not always compatible with some hard wired functions but, iplicit are always coming up with new ideas and work arounds.

Avantages

The ease with which reports and MI can be exported from the system.
The drill down facility to link different areas of the system.
The self service model available for budget holders to view their income and expenditure directly.
The bank reconciliation process which enables quick, easy input of cash transactions.
Very thorough training before the go-live date

Inconvénients

The list of access/security settings for users is endless which makes it difficult to know what access is being given.
Similarly, reports and enquiries aren't always named intuitively so it can be difficult to find what you need.

Avantages

simplicity of moving throughout the system, downloading of information is easy and a excellent reporting tool.

Inconvénients

the set up has problematic at times, but the excellent service clears the problem in a speedy and effective manner

I like the Excel functions that pull data directly from Iplicit. We have saved so much time on a day-to day basis, which we now use to focus on other tasks.

Inconvénients

Any issues that we raised during implementation and after were dealt with so I can't think of anything.

Avantages

The management information, the easy access to audit trails, the currency management, the ease to automate to so all the right information is instantly available, after service support, tailoring to our needs.

Inconvénients

Not much. It can do everything we want. And it can be adapted to anything we need.

Avantages

Customisable reporting, integration, creating efficiencies, personalised workflows

Inconvénients

Implementation and training was not customised to our specific needs and timings.

Although not a user of all the financial aspects the migration from an on-premise legacy system was made relativley straightforward by the support and assistance from the project teams. Bespoke elements of the on premise system were developed and reflected in iPlicit making the transition pretty painless. All the feedback I have heard from the finance teams using it has all been positive.

Inconvénients

The expense module isn't very user friendly but neither was the previous supplier so maybe it isn't something that is as important as other financial processes.

Avantages

UI and level of customisation. Data import checking is also great.

Inconvénients

Creating template to import data is very technical.

Avantages

The customisation options with an in depth training and setup period has enabled clean implementation into the busiest part of our year.

Inconvénients

The Sandbox can have a conflict when more than one ticket is being worked on at once. For example one area will reset the sandbox to try and fix their issue and in the process will wipe the work of another areas testing. It seems that there needs to be some way to lock an area from being wiped in the sandbox so that multiple issues can be worked on at once.

Avantages

Its ease of use, a massive help with time saving through automation. Great customer service and quick problem solvers through a great helpdesk.

Inconvénients

The only minor con is as a relatively new product there are areas to be developed but the continual progression has been speedy and without any detriment to the core product.

Avantages

The ability to copy previous expense records is a godsend and makes life so much easier when costs are predictable and fixed. I interact with this more than any other area of the site.

Inconvénients

It *looks* a bit unintuitive and takes a while to get used to the feel of the product.

Avantages

Easy to navigate and so simple to attach receipts.
Completing my expenses just got a whole lot easier and quicker.

Inconvénients

As with all new platforms getting your head around a new system. However, this was short lived as

Avantages

the ease of use, the functionality that automates things to save time and human error is a god send!

Inconvénients

the formulae to use to get information out into excel for real time data is complex.

Avantages

The ease of use, and ability to see multiple pages

Inconvénients

I have not found anything so far that I do not like

Avantages

The ease of navigation and being able to have several screens open at once to move between. The views of P&L's, Balance Sheet etc. that are so easy to access and extract information from.

Inconvénients

I found configuring the approval workflows a bit tricky but that could just be me.
