Aquilon ERP

Great value - many good features for a distribution company

Commentaires : The implementation was very quick and done in less than a week by the Aquilon support staff. The brought across all the inventory, customers and supplier information from our Sage 50 system and now we run teh systems in the cloud which saved a lot of time.

Avantages :

Once we were trained and understood the software we found it easy to use. The data queries allow us to setup the data the way we want to see it for our products and customers. Our old software did not have the same flexibility and power.

Inconvénients :

There is not much not to like about this software, it does everything we want and more

A Solid Product for a Fair Price

Avantages :

We are a small manufacturing and distribution company, approximately $15M in sales. We were forced to move off of our old server based package as it was barely being supported. Between constant problems with Microsoft update compatibility, security issues, and connectivity problems from our server to other locations, we knew we had to change. Cloud based solutions seemed like to route to go. After reviewing and trialing some packages, we decided upon Aquilon. For a company our size some packages were ridiculously priced, in comparison, Aquilon seemed fairly priced for a small company with our needs. The leadership of Aquilon was involved in the sale, which also was a major selling point. Just great personal service and support. And it continues to this day.

Inconvénients :

There were some reports on the old system I missed, but we have created custom reports now that give essentially the same information. As with other cloud based subscription products, we are now subject to the razor and razor blade business. But there is comfort in not worrying about server problems, software updates, backups, connectivity issues with our branches, etc.

Review

Inexpensive in comparison to a lot of softwares that can do an effective inventory management.

Limited reporting templates, cannot customize reports yourself.

Best Decision we've made

Commentaires : i was very concerned with the decision to convert to a NEW program. heard numerous stories of problems with others integrating systems. spent a number of years contemplating the change. AQUILON was always the option i came back to. can't believe i waited 5 years to make the BEST decision i could've made!!

Avantages :

Very easy to implement. users picked it up extremely fast.

Inconvénients :

Not many CON's. if anything the extreme amount of options and capacity to the program.
