M1 Description

M1 is a subscription cloud-based or on-premise ERP software for manufacturers, enabling you to tie your business operations together in one system to centralize your data. It lets you coordinate and share data across various functions within your business from sales, inventory, scheduling, production, shipping, and more.

The solution is suitable for small to midsize companies that manufacture via repetitive, make-to-stock, make-to-order and engineer-to-order processes.

M1’s product configurator provides a multi-level, automated configuration that builds product configurations from a BOM, including all sub-assemblies. Users can also add additional rules and formulas after the wizard is complete.

Other key features include MRP, BAM, free “view only” licenses for users who only need to view and edit reports, “Smart Screen Technology” that automatically changes screens based on users’ input and a free M1 Design Studio that allows users to customize the system without accessing the source code or requiring extensive programming knowledge. With M1, you also have access to differentiators like Alora Machine Intelligence, Avalara, uniPoint, KnowledgeSync, Net1, and many others.

    A Very Capable Software

    Date: Aug 12 2021

    Summary: All-in-all this is a very capable software that I feel needs to be on the shortlist of any small business looking to implement an ERP system (especially small manufacturing businesses).

    Positive: In my humble opinion, this software has some of the best drilldown capabilities I've ever seen in a Tier3/Tier2 level ERP. M1 has also solved the age old problem of custom SQL queries that tend to be daunting for standard system users. The software allows users to create custom grids simply by selecting from a list of available tables and then adding headers. Behind the scenes it automatically writes the SQL code. This ability empowers daily users to easily access the data they need.

    Negative: No software is perfect, and unfortunately one of the areas where M1 falls down a bit is on Deposit Invoices. The software can detect when a customer has a deposit, and apply it towards the final A/R Invoice, but if the situation arises where the original Deposit Invoice has to be credited, and a new Deposit Invoice issued, it tends to duplicate the deposit lines on the final A/R Invoice. The duplicate lines can be deleted, but that is an extra step that can be missed by a careless A/R person. If ECi would nip this issue in the bud, I'd be hard pressed to find something to complain about.
