Until recently, we had Macola as our ERP software and used another software for CRM purposes. We had to use a third party software to connect the two. We are now using Macola for both CRM and ERP and it is working great. Not only do we manage all internal aspects of business but are able to keep up with customers and vendors within the same software linking orders directly to customers.

Cons
  • Integration with other software
  • Migration from another application
Read full review
  • The interface is aging - The application has been around quite a while. Even with the more modern UI, it still feels like a 90's application and doesn't provide the quick augmentation options like what is found in Netsuite or cloud apps.
  • A premise based - It's an application that was built to run on mini/mainframe environments, which were great for its time. However, in comparison to the hand's free environments in the cloud, it requires more iron and humans to maintain the solution.
  • Speed to roll out new business models - It felt like, once you deployed a business setup, it was difficult to change and add new business features, especially those that contradict previous directions.

Return on Investment
  • Streamlining of processes
  • Time savings with built in high level reporting
  • Customized notifications to customers with receipts and invoices
Read full review
  • The EnterpriseOne toolset is flexible and easily usable. Since they continue to invest and grow the product, we do get a good ROI out of it.
  • The software was already here and installed when I started at this company but the business users seemed to really like it and adapt to it well so it must feed the need to manage our inventory and financials, etc.
