### "Excellent ERP Software"

February 9, 2017

4.0

It has several things to point out. Has an advanced EDI Module, some other modules for accounts, clients but the best part is its production module.

Pros

Its production module.

Cons

Not very user friendly, excessive steps to make one thing.

### "Epicor (Prophet21) Review"

December 15, 2014

3.5

Pros

It's an excellent out of the box distribution software. Epicor seems to have thought of every thing to meet distribution needs and included it in a tidy package.

Cons

We are using the P21 suite which is catered to distribution, but we also have a fair amount of manufacturing with other entities and value-add production. Sometimes the production module can be cumbersome.

Software is great but lacks reporting. I feel they are gouging you because you have nowhere else to go once you purchase the product. They promise you the world when they come to sell you the software but once you in implementation you find out that everything they told you the software can do out of the box, is a custom modification that is going to cost you alot of money.

### "great software for b2b distributors"

December 19, 2019

5.0

Great software, just make sure you have the right parts to handle a quality integration.

Pros

It's ability to be integrated once you have a development team to support the ecommerce integrations

Cons

Out of the box it is weak without a strong development team because it integrates poorly initially. However with a good team it is best in class.

We utilize the Prophet 21 software package. We are a medical distributor so we have unique needs. Epicor has addressed those needs and provided all the functionality needed by a medical distributor. They are always focused on new technology and new features needed by their users.

Pros

They're willing to program just about anything for you, as long as you are willing to pay.

That you have to customize the software (expensive) to get basic functionality out of it.
