Four Hundred Stuff--Mixed Reaction to Oracle Fusion from J.D. Edwards Users
Four Hundred Stuff--Mixed Reaction to Oracle Fusion from J.D. Edwards Users: "Users of the J.D. Edwards ERP systems are offering differing views on how Oracle's Fusion application and integration strategy will effect their long-term plans. The software giant says its half-way to completing Fusion, a new suite of Java-based ERP applications that are due to be rolled out in 2007 and 2008. Some J.D. Edwards users are seriously considering making the upgrade, while others have strong misgivings over wildcards in the equation, such as Oracle's commitment to OS/400, DB2/400, and the iSeries.
Oracle has definitely bitten off a big chunk of project management with Fusion, a multi-year plan to build a new ERP system that blends the best of its original E-Business Suite and the various enterprise software products it has acquired, including J.D. Edwards World and EnterpriseOne, PeopleSoft Enterprise, Siebel for CRM, and Retek for the retailing business. "
