Ridder IQ is a system for production facilities. It is a good tool. However, there are not enough possibilities for CRM, finance, and MRP planning. At our company, we use Ridder as the main ERP package, and we do need further functionality in CRM and visibility in MRP planning.
Odoo has broader functionality but its functionality is not deeper. The PLM functionality of Odoo is not really CAD PLM but only BOM management. Ridder iQ is very easy in small customizations and bigger customization is also possible but with programming. Ridder iQ has a good …
Ridder iQ is specialized for our business and has people who bring a lot of knowledge to the table, so Ridder iQ is far more suited than a ERP solution which is not specilized in the make-industry. Furthermore, the customizability of Ridder stands out compared to solutions like …
I used unit4 in a previous organization, this system has far fewer options and I don't think it was suitable for Biron.
Dutch Translation: Ik heb Unit4 gebruikt in een vorige organisatie, dit systeem heeft veel minder opties en ik denk niet dat het geschikt was voor Biron
I believe Syspro has more meat to it than the other software I have used in the past. I have worked with software programs that were in-house written and prepackaged programs as well. Our company is unique in many ways but is also pretty standard for manufacturing. We are too …
SYSPRO is worlds apart from E2 Shop System. Not in a bad way, just in that they target totally different size businesses. We had to move from E2 due to our growth and E2 could not facilitate our scheduling and logistical needs. E2 led us to a point that enabled us to afford …
We evaluated 8 of the top vendors 16 years ago before we selected Syspro and frankly, none of them came close to meeting all of our needs at a reasonable price point. We still look back at that process and think it was one of the best decisions we have ever made.
The best in the complete production process. It provides the correct info in a very usable way. It is pretty good in sales, but the lack of discounts for sales goods and sales production is not ideal. On the other hand, ECI provides an excellent service for looking for custom solutions where we need them. Dutch Translation: De beste in het complete productieproces. Het biedt de juiste informatie op een zeer bruikbare manier. Het is redelijk goed in de verkoop, maar het gebrek aan kortingen op verkoopartikelen en verkoopproductie is niet ideaal. Aan de andere kant biedt ECI een uitstekende service bij het zoeken naar maatwerkoplossingen waar we die nodig hebben.

If your company is an ISO or AS9100 type company that needs to maintain traceability of your products throughout the manufacturing process this is a good fit. Additionally, it performs well with inventory tracking and warehouse management. If you as just a basic job shop that just needs basic functions such as inventory, scheduling, work orders, etc...I would recommend using a product more manageable and less expensive such as ShopTech E2 Systems.
Integrations with peripheral applications e.g. eCommerce websites.
SYSPRO does this very well through the use of it's web services and e.NET business objects. This makes integrations very easy.
Non-stocked configurable product production and management.
Through the use of SYSPRO's product configurator, configurable products are easily set-up and managed by the use of selections, criteria and tying it to parts. This is particularly useful for companies that produce configurable products and want to give their customers the ability to customize.
Document Management.
Out of the box, SYSPRO provides document management through crystal reports (Syspro Reporting service Reports and Documents for invoices, order acknowledgements etc.).
Accounting functions like Nightly Processing, Month end closing, General Ledger set-up etc. are easy to set-up and manage in SYSPRO.
The ability to copy item lines from receipts to a BOM
Adding photos to comment blocks in quotes makes the system slow. The photos are added in full size instead of asking for a small version.
De mogelijkheid om artikelregels van ontvangsten naar een stuklijst te kopiëren
Het toevoegen van foto's aan commentaarblokken tussen aanhalingstekens maakt het systeem traag. De foto's worden op volledige grootte toegevoegd in plaats van dat er om een kleine versie wordt gevraagd.
Their Projects and Contracts module is not as good as other ERP systems I have used. Tracking by Project for Sales and Purchases is cumbersome as it uses Jobs as the connecting point for the Projects and not the Project ID itself.
They do not have a way to have system to allow Non-Stock Part Codes to be kept in a table that you can use in Purchasing that go to a particular GL code which you can use over and over again. It only has stocking items, and all Items in a Warehouse go to that Warehouse GL code.
Similar to above the GL coding is not on the product but on the Warehouse that product is located in. I prefer it to be by Product not Warehouse.
Its nice software but it is very, very slow in webification and integration possibilities by using api's. Untill now the programm has client-server technology unfortunately. And there are far too less no code adjustments possible.
Ridder iQ is friendly to use. With the use of roles we can give a very good user experience to our employees; they are more in control of their tasks. Since we use Ridder iQ, the right information is available for everybody in our organization, all on demand. Dutch Translation: Ridder iQ is gebruiksvriendelijk. Door rollen te gebruiken, kunnen we onze medewerkers een zeer goede gebruikerservaring bieden; ze hebben meer controle over hun taken. Sinds we Ridder iQ gebruiken, is de juiste informatie voor iedereen binnen onze organisatie beschikbaar, direct beschikbaar.
I've heard many reports from our users stating how difficult Syspro is to use and navigate. From an average standpoint, the Syspro Administrator has to invest a lot of time in setting up the user for success. Once the groundwork is applied, SYSPRO's overall usability becomes fair easier to the average user.
Ridder iQ is specialized for our business and has people who bring a lot of knowledge to the table, so Ridder iQ is far more suited than a ERP solution which is not specilized in the make-industry. Furthermore, the customizability of Ridder stands out compared to solutions like ISAH. Therefore, the choice was an easy one, because knowledge and customizability are important criteria. Dutch Translation: Ridder iQ is gespecialiseerd in onze branche en heeft mensen met veel kennis in huis. Ridder iQ is daarom veel geschikter dan een ERP-oplossing, die niet gespecialiseerd is in de maakindustrie. Bovendien onderscheidt Ridder iQ zich qua aanpasbaarheid ten opzichte van oplossingen zoals ISAH. De keuze was dan ook snel gemaakt, want kennis en aanpasbaarheid zijn belangrijke criteria.
I believe Syspro has more meat to it than the other software I have used in the past. I have worked with software programs that were in-house written and prepackaged programs as well. Our company is unique in many ways but is also pretty standard for manufacturing. We are too large for a program like QuickBooks but too small for a much bigger ERP. Syspro is about the right size program for our company. The program has the ability to turn modules on that we need and customize whatever we choose we want at the time.
