Re: ERP systems on i versus ERP systems on Windows

It's not just impressive screens, it's the user functionality that is missing in the Iseries packages. We are speaking of another company that might bite the dust, heaven forbid. But the users are the users.
Some packages would include Epicor, Blue Cherry, Apprise.

Don't underrate functionality.

Thank you,

Businesses run themselves on powerful databases and reliable systems, not
impressive screens.  Unfortunately, that's not necessarily the way some
executives make platform decisions.

Okay Adam West, tell us more about the ERP packages that run on Windows.
I have never heard of any vendor offering a true Enterprise Resource
system on Windows.

<Adam West> I have recently been looking at ERP packages from both i
based, either RPG or Java, mostly RPG and the Windows based. I can tell
you that the W based are more impressive screens. </Adam>
