My company has recently been purchased by another company which uses One World (Version 7xxx) as it's ERP system. My company current runs a bespoke system, based around java tools running against an Oracle DB.
The internal company pressure seems to be to ditch our beskoke system and move to One World, by re-developing our current systems under One World 7xxxx, since it is used elsewhere.
Having had a look at the existing one world system, I have some concerns that this may be in many ways a step backward from what we currently have; which is a very modern fast and flexible system.
Has anyone got any thoughts on the pros/cons of doing major new development in One World? Is this the right way to go?
Is 7xxx the right version to use? It's seems OW is on 8xxx and webclient based... Should we be looking at this newer version for a fresh project (is 8xxx more java friendly)?
What version is best to leverage our current Java expertise, if any?
I can't help but feel the drive to use 7xxx is just because that's their comfort zone.. should 8xxx be pushed as an option?
What kind of timeframe would be required to cross train experienced java developers to be prodictive under One World tools?
Any thoughs or comments would be most appreiciated.
