Experience With Infor Saleslogix

I call it Infor Saleslogix (ISLX) CRM Enterprise because Infor has a number of CRM offerings (Inforce, Epiphany, Infor CRM Business, etc). ISLX Enterprise, although, long-in-tooth, provides the most comprehensive Customer Relationship Management solution on the market Out-Of-The-Box. Besides being one of the most intuitive, and easiest to use offerings, ISLX Enterprise includes Sales Automation, Marketing Automation, Customer Service Automation, Complete Mobile CRM, highly advanced Outlook and Gmail Integration, and 100GB of Data Storage for each 50 users (which is often overlooked when comparing Cost and ROI. Infor SLX Enterprise is available as a Cloud, On-Premise, or Hybrid Offering. At 48% the cost per user of SFDC Lightning (excluding storage), ISLX CRM has an overall productivity rapid-return-on-value built-in.

Pros

Easy-to-Use, Robust Out-of-the-Box, Configurability,, Flexibility, Rapid Return-of-Value, ROI generally less than 1 year (usually 6-8 months); Fast and Easy Navigation. Price-to-Value; and Rapid Implementation. Outstanding Outlook and Microsoft Office Integration (Outlook, Excel, Word, Sharepoint).

Cons

Beauty and Speed are usually not Congruent. Infor Hook and Loop designers need to step-up and close the gap on the user interface. Infor needs to focus on an greatly robust application eco-system (1st 3rd party integration -not just ION, vertical industries providers, re-invest in business partners, increase marketing awareness with success stories, and product collateral; use competitive wins that make sense. Finally, WIN Something BIG, and let everyone know you are in the game, or Go Home.

Very good product...easy customization to your sales process

Pros

Customization options are extensive but the ability to just 'jump-in' and start using the product right away was very easy and a big plus for us. The user-interface was logical and easy to pick-up and you could customize your personal dashboard very easily to view only the items that are important to your role. The ability for us to create our own sales process was a big plus -- that is, taking an opportunity from our first meet to a sale told us a lot about where to focus our time and efforts and when to call an opportunity closed. Our vendor support was always excellent and responsive although we were unclear on what level of support we could expect with our plan and what was 'extra'.

Cons

We felt that we needed to employ a full-time administrator to manage everything and since we're a small company that wasn't an option for us. There were issues for us with administrator rules and with permissions that we didn't have someone on site dedicated to managing. Again, the support from the vendor was very good but it was difficult to know the difference between a CRM issue and a vendor issue. With our most recent vendor the support was good and the people we spoke with were able to resolve any issues we had in one phone call or email.

Infor CRM

Pros

The milestone updates and integration with Microsoft Outlook are easily my most used and favoirte features.

Cons

The user interface isn't very intuitive and often prevents me from grouping data sets in ways that are helpful for analysis.

Office Manager

Pros

Out of all the CRM systems I have used in the past this was one of my favorite's due to the features and ease of use.

Cons

It's not the most bright and colorful CRM system out there and I had the odd latency issue but apart from that it was great.
