The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Infor CloudSuite Fashion infor's CloudSuite Fashion product page confirms the offering and names an AI add-on module at a flat fee, but publishes no figure or named edition for the core ERP suite itself, gating it behind a Contact Us process; JobBOSS² the product is a merger of two legacy systems, so existing JobBOSS and E2 customers face a migration and retraining project whose cost is negotiated case by case and is easy to underestimate.
  • They diverge on capability: Infor CloudSuite Fashion covers Inventory management, JobBOSS² covers Estimating and quoting.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Infor CloudSuite Fashion

JobBOSS²

  • The product is a merger of two legacy systems, so existing JobBOSS and E2 customers face a migration and retraining project whose cost is negotiated case by case and is easy to underestimate.
  • ECI is a private equity owned portfolio company with many vertical products, and buyers should read renewal, uplift and support tier terms carefully because the commercial model is built around long term contracted revenue.
  • Machine connectivity is limited, so shop floor data comes from operators clocking in and out rather than from controllers, and any automatic utilisation measurement needs a separate monitoring product.
  • Reporting is rigid compared with a modern system and most shops end up exporting to Excel for anything beyond the supplied reports, which reintroduces the spreadsheets the system was bought to eliminate.
  • The user interface carries its lineage and takes longer to learn than a current generation web application, which matters most for occasional users such as estimators and purchasing staff.
