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. Pros 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.

Thanks for taking the time to do the review P HH Heather H. Operations Manager Food & Beverages Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great for inventory management and sales reporting" December 12, 2022 4.0 Overall we are pretty happy with this software. Pros This software is great for inventory management and sales reporting. Cons Some of the modules feel outdated and are not all user friendly. Doing multiple steps to complete what should be a single transaction took a lot to get used to. Review Source Response from Aquilon Software December 13, 2022 Hi Heather Thanks for reviewing Aquilon ERP. I will contact you to discuss the multiple steps issue mentioned and see if we can correct this for you Thanks P JD Jessie D. Controller Logistics and Supply Chain Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Review" May 20, 2015 3.0 Pros Easy of use and responsive/knowledgable staff members Cons Period based system did not work well for our company Review Source DM Dennis M. PRESIDENT Warehousing Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A Solid Product for a Fair Price" November 29, 2022 5.0 Pros 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. Cons 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 Source Response from Aquilon Software November 30, 2022 Hi Denny, Thank you for taking the time to review our product and services. P LG Linh G. President Building Materials Used the software for: 2+ years ### "System for building materials, door in particular." November 29, 2022 4.0 We are able to solve our massive inventory system issues by moving from Sage 50 to Aquilon because we have over 3000 SKUs. The accounting module is also very strong. Pros The inventory module is very comprehensive. I would say this is one of the strongest inventory management software I have used in particular for door suppliers. Cons The payroll system does not print out T4 forms. We must use a pre-printed blank form to print T4s and make the form alignment manually which can take up a bit of time. Reason for choosing Aquilon ERP We chose Aquilon because it was a door inventory management software and one of our major products is doors. Review Source Response from Aquilon Software November 30, 2022 Hi Lihn Thanks for taking the time to review Aquilon. We will address the T4 issue as soon as possible. Thanks for pointing this out.

President Packaging and Containers Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best Decision we've made" December 5, 2022 5.0 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!! Pros Very easy to implement. users picked it up extremely fast. Cons Not many CON's. if anything the extreme amount of options and capacity to the program. Reason for choosing Aquilon ERP Functions. ease to implement. affordability. Switched from [SBT Executive Series](https://www.capterra.com/p/108311/SBT-Executive-Series/) outdated. not enough functions! Review Source Response from Aquilon Software December 6, 2022 Thanks for the review Dan. We enjoy working with you and your team Regards Phil DK Darlene K. Office Manager Warehousing Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Experienced office software user" November 30, 2022 5.0 Aquilon ERP is cloud based and that has helped to access files from home. Our data files are more accessible and easy to recreate. Our processing time has increased and easily accommodates our increased sales. Pros The most useful feature is the module links. I can easily get to a customer's file to look up an older sale or the maintenance file while entering an invoice for billing. I really like using the Excel and PDF report export. Our files were all imported into the new software and we were off and running their first day we went live. Cons There are features that need to be tweaked for some reports. We have special sales tax needs that we are fixing that are unique to us. We have had other minor issues but the Aquilon team fixed them and and made our defaults customary to our desires. Very accommodating team. Review Source Response from Aquilon Software December 1, 2022 HI Darlene Thanks for the positive review, its much appreciated Regards Phil LC Lana C. Controller Wholesale Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great for small manufacturing/distribution/inventory business." December 12, 2022 4.0 Overall for the price we paid and the annual support, this is the best value for money for a small business that have sales under $5 million. Pros Inexpensive in comparison to a lot of softwares that can do an effective inventory management. Cons Limited reporting templates, cannot customize reports yourself. Reason for choosing Aquilon ERP It was a local Canadian made software.The sales rep actually came on site several times to demo the software.

Director of Sales Wholesale Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Aquilion improved our look, performance & profit." July 2, 2021 5.0 I am a happy Sales Manager in part because of Aquilon ERP Pros The inventory and sales aspects makes for a easy and accurate quote to customers... and it looks very professional in our customers hands. Cons If I couldn't perform a task, or didn't think it was available; customer support saved the day.

Regards GH Greg H. Project Coordinator Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "This software has really helped our business grow and improve" September 21, 2017 4.0 Pros Ability to customize queries and reports Customer service is excellent. The Aquilon team is responsive and supportive. Cons Inability to build new modules on the fly. Each new request has to be requested. This is not as bad as it sounds because the Aquilon office is very helpful. But it would be nice to be able to set up simple modules. Review Source GH Geoff H. COO Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "To date excellent experience . We are about to go into live production and we expect no change " September 18, 2017 5.0 Pros Acquilon was able to bridge the gaps between IT, accounting and operations so we ended up with a product that works for all three. They accomplished this by listening, acting and reviewing to ensure buy in from us. They also took the time to better understand our business and some of its nuances so the product truly accomplishes what we wanted it to do. Cons The process has taken longer than anticipated. Not really anyone's fault and we are happy with the result and cost. We will be better next time as well. Review Source GD Geoff D. COO Food & Beverages Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A user and run my business with the software" May 20, 2015 5.0 Pros Ease of use and intuitive - an elegant solution to most problems. Vendor is very helpful and has very knowledgable staff Cons There is nothing I can add or suggest to improve the functionality of the software neither do I have any thing negative to say about the vendor. Review Source TL Tom L. Manager Used the software for: ### "Love the software" November 11, 2015 5.0 We used similar software from other company that i would like not mention. We did the transition to Aqulion after an in-depth research and talk with their customer service. We made the perfect choice. It is a full featured ERP software that is easy to use. We loved the fast implementation tool that converted data from our old system to Aqulilon. We also love the fact that you can built configurable views that will allow you to build your own spreadsheet like views of data, save that and export it to excel. It has definitely convinced us that it is a great tool for our business. Amazing ERP software that we will use for a long time! Review Source RB Randall B.

Proprietor Used the software for: ### "Aquilon delivers a smooth transition to user friendly ERP software. Value for money too. " March 23, 2016 4.0 My favorite feature is the automatic creation of inter company journal entries which guarantees that inter company loan accounts balance at all times. Inventory permits perpetual inventory counts ensuring no disruption to operations that a full stock count can bring. Payroll is user friendly and allows detailed cost allocations. Customer service is excellent at customizing the software to your requirements and providing training and support. Review Source JB Jim B.
