Supposed to be a complete ERP system

Pros

Not much

Cons

Sketchy accounting software, terrible manufacturing software. Really poor at standard process things like managing work orders, customer orders, engineering data, etc. Support is expensive and terrible; they want you to buy module after module. Upgrades from version to version are disruptive; they add minor functions and usually break something important. Getting data out of the system is impossible. We have used this software for 15 years.

This is a good program for what we used to do but as we’ve grown it doesn’t meet our full requirements and we have to keep trying to add custom programs to fit those requirements.
