Web front end is good. Users pick it up quickly, navigation is intuitive. Easily customise what you see and how to get the necessary info all on screen.
Integration to our ERP was pretty straightforward even with all the customisations we had made.
We were/are able to continue to add our own developments to the AGR product.
Really like the new bulk update functionality and ability to copy/paste from excel into various filter boxes etc.
Service and support is generally very prompt and overall we have found the system to be reliable.
The AGR system manages all our replenishment to stores every night (fully automated) and also proposes all supply into the business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not a dislike but we found we needed to recruit an internal resource who was experienced working forecasting systems and with a more technical mindset to get the best out of the system and the possible ways of working. AGR could have supported this with consultancy but having that person internally was better for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
AGR gives me a view of the forecast for each item, possible order qunatity and a view to analyse the required date i need which is done an a daily basis , it can be personnaly set up to the view/date you need, but the quality of data is only as good coming out as what you put in, the more accurate you are the better. visibility is easy, report and plans help. It is stil computer generated data and stills allows human intervention for ordering.
It is easy to implement to you port folio. having a dedicated customer service log that you can send. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
when the data doesn't update which is not always an AGR issue. some plans can be amended without knowing it, the data as complex as it is created can sometimes be criptic to how it comes by the figures
AGR resets the platform to default ramdomly which i am not sure is caused by AGR or by our Microsoft program.
if the data is lost on some of the imputs... it all has to be redone manually Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
AGR easily helps inventory management. The main advantage is having a clear dashboard for all inventories. Being able to analyze our sales and purchases with all the features AGR offers, makes our life so much easier. It´s easy to prioritize vendors and items with their feature, such as Importance status, ABC analyze and other tools. AGR also pushes us to keep updating and improving our ERP system.
• The system is simple and easy to use.

• Power BI Dashboard.
• Adjustable sales data.
• The support team is excellent and replies quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've been using AGR a lot for a few years now, first with a customized solution, then the Essential, and now we are working with a retail solution with three locations. AGR helps a lot in purchase planning, both from suppliers and between stores, and inventory management at all locations. It helps us both to lower inventory levels but also increasing service level by having the right products at the right time in the right quantity needed. It is very user-friendly and very easy to implement.
Apart from how great the system itself is, the customer service is exceptionally good, they answer all requests fast and very well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing that I can think of now. Of cource we have had some questions and issues during time but then I've just contacted the customer service and they have reacted quickly and solved the issue right away. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In AGR are very useful :
- promotion management
- orders in progress taken into account
- customisation of parameters to suit our needs
- adaptability of the software, with the possibility of development and customisation to suit our way of working
- availability of AGR teams and our French correspondent
- ergonomics and ease of use for shop teams
- daily use of the system by users
- teams quickly convinced of the reliability and usefulness of the calculation system - overall easy and successful adaptation by teams Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What we don't like about AGR :
- no Power BI-style dashboard in the customisable AGR version (as available in the standard version)
- no dashboard for the day's tasks: for example, orders to be placed, next orders planned, etc.
- if historical data or sales quantities for an item are low, forecasting is difficult
- hourly rates can sometimes climb very quickly for development work Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Through my 12 years of experience with AGR, here's my authentic perspective on how the software has transformed my approach to product management.
AGR isn't just another tool; it's become an indispensable asset in navigating the complexities of product needs. Its inuitive interface and wealth of information presended graphically have been invaluable in ensuring accurate decisions regarding quantitites, timing and pricing.
What truly sets AGR apart is its seamless integration with ERP systems like Microsoft Business Central or Microsoft Ax. As someone who's relied on AGR across different roles and industries, I've seen firsthand how it effortlessly consolidates product data, saving me countless hours of manual effort. It's like having a reliable assistant who knows exactly what information you need, precisely when you need it.
But what in fact impresses me most about AGR isn't just its features - It's the exceptional support behind it. Not only is the AGR team responsive; they're genuinely committed to helping users succeed. Whenever I've had questions or needed custom solutions, they've been there with prompt, practical and reliable assistance, setting a standard that other software providers could learn from.
In my line of work, where quick decisions can make all the difference, AGR's reliability has been a game-changer. Its graphical insights allow me to grasp the situation at a glance, speeding up decision-making and ensuring that I can respond to customers and vendors promptly.
If you're in a fast-packed industry like mine, I can't recommend AGR enough - it's been an invaluable tool for me, both professionally and personally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
