Acumatica a True ERP for the Construction Industry.

5.0 last year

Comments: Acumatica has brought all the areas of our business together in one software which is allowing for an improved business decision making process.

Pros:

The integration of business functions are the most useful components of Acumatica, bringing our finance and project management functions together. The software is easy to implement when working with a Acumatica Partner on the implementation process. To date all features we require have been found in Acumatica other than Payroll which is going live in Q4 2023.

Cons:

In order to be able to provide the robust reporting and project tracking features it is important to enter information very accurately, the learning curve for new users can be steep.

Alternatives Considered: NetSuite

Reasons for Choosing Acumatica Cloud ERP: QBD was no longer meeting our needs, it served is purpose for financial management but not for business management.

Switched From: QuickBooks Enterprise

Reasons for Switching to Acumatica Cloud ERP: Better integration of business functions

Could be better...

3.0 9 months ago

Comments: Overall experience sucks. I believe this is partially not Acu's fault. Don't use Kensium as a VAR, or IIG.

Pros:

Um, it mostly works. Allegedly it's totally customizable.

Cons:

Can't get basic financial statements. It's extremely spendy. Would prefer to be on NetSuite.

Customizable to meet the needs of the HVAC Construction/Service Industry

5.0 4 months ago

Comments: We use Acumatica for Project Managment in construction, which I would say is the strongest part of this ERP platform. Linked to that we use the service module for scheduling service calls with our service technicians. Tied to both of these modules is inventory management and payroll. For the most part it has met the needs of each of these parts of our company.

Pros:

Acumatica is fairly simple to learn and is quite customizable to meet the needs of our HVAC construction/service industry.

Cons:

There are still some ways that it needs to improve in how the different modules work together. There are times where it is not that easy to follow the path between modules.

Pros:

The fact that the timecards do not have a separate module to close financial periods with but are included in the AP module.

Growing ERP in it's Early Stages

4.0 4 months ago

Pros:

The ease of use and simplicity of the user interface. Very adaptable platform and has a growing API vendor list.

Cons:

Not as intuitive and lacks a large community database of support. There also aren't enough people trained to build out the architecture and a large dependence on 3rd party implementation/support.

Acumatica For Finance_ Agriculture Industry

3.0 4 months ago

Comments: Great customisations which removes limitations found on other ERP's

Pros:

1.Ability to track projects at plantations per block of plants. It allows management and production team to analyse profitability further by having smaller P&Ls per block. 2. Customisation

Cons:

The default template in the system for inventory does not allow capturing different items issued out of stock on different date so further customisation is required.

It's a great product if you've got the time to set it up right

4.0 last year

Comments: We are still learning it at this point, having used it only a few years, but the more I learn about the system, the more I like it, tbh.

Pros:

Acumatica is highly customizable and has a great support team. There is also alot of information available through Acumatica's learning material as well as forums where many answers are found.

Cons:

The most difficult part of Acumatica is if it's not fully brought on board and understood from the start, the cusomizations applied to the structure end up costing both time and money, because with each update, there's extra work to keep everything functioning the same. But, if you've got someone on your team who understands these sort of customizable cloud ERP systems, and the company, and this person is able to determine that Acumatica is a great fit, this is a great product for sure.

If You Need A Good System, Try Quick Books. It Has Better Options Than Acumatica

1.0 last year

Comments: The realization that we made a honorably mistake and should have selected a different system. And I fear that when we express our frustrations that they will kill off our service as they have expressed this directly to me in a veiled threat during one of our conference calls.

Pros:

At this time...Nothing. Internally we call it Crapmatica.

Cons:

Acumatica ERP software, in my experience, has been quite disappointing. It falls short in several areas, and I can't help but feel frustrated with its limitations. One major issue is the lack of basic reporting features right out of the box. Unlike other accounting software, there is no intuitive "drill down" function available anywhere in this ERP system. Instead, finding information requires a tedious search or running multiple reports on top of each other.What's worse is that certain essential reports are simply missing, forcing users to rely on costly implementation services to create custom reports. Even then, any necessary adjustments come with an additional financial burden. This lack of flexibility and the associated costs are significant drawbacks.The payroll system, a critical component of any ERP, is another letdown. Despite its high price tag, it fails to deliver reliable functionality. This can cause major disruptions to business operations and create unnecessary stress for users.Furthermore, when it comes to analyzing sales data and estimating costs and hours spent on a specific customer during the opportunity phase, Acumatica proves to be inadequate. The system lacks the necessary tools to input this information for opportunities, such as quotes or bids. This limitation severely hampers the ability to make informed business decisions.I could delve into more grievances, but it would only escalate my frustration. I do not recommend this system.

Alternatives Considered: NetSuite

Reasons for Choosing Acumatica Cloud ERP: to update from an old accounting system to a complete ERP

Reasons for Switching to Acumatica Cloud ERP: for the payroll! which doesn't work.,

ERP that creates value for the company!

5.0 last year

Comments: We needed real ERP processes coming from a Hybrid solution of point to point software system. This system allows us to follow process strings.

Pros:

Many processes are streamlined and delivered with documentation and unique added features not normally provided by ERP vendors.

Cons:

Some of the error messages are still being developed so they can be archaic at times. (not a lot).

Alternatives Considered: NetSuite and SAP Business One

Reasons for Choosing Acumatica Cloud ERP: Needed a better, more supported system.

Reasons for Switching to Acumatica Cloud ERP: Cost and supportability.

Acumatica – a powerful Cloud-based ERP System

5.0 last year

Comments: If there is a feature that is not available, the Acumatica marketplace is there to help you find a certified partner to integrate a solution. And if you already have a solution, Acumatica's robust API makes integration very easy, it has very good integations with other software.

Pros:

I like that Acumatica is a cloud based platform, in all this time I have used it I can say that it offers incomparable flexibility. Being able to manage finances and pay bills from anywhere in the world is a huge advantage for me. What I like the most is how customizable and modular the plaform is. You can choose the modules you need and adapt them to fit your specific requirements

Cons:

The only drawback I find with this platform is that it doesn’t have a mobile version that facilitates its use, everything has to be done from the platform.
