  ### 5. I have been working  in Endur from the past 4 years.

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Prince V. | Endur Developer (Associate, TRM L1), Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 15, 2021

**What do you like best about Endur?**

1)   Endur is very vast ETRM/CTRM software which cover the complete life cycle of a deal.
      Right from the Deal booking till the invoice generation and accounting. It is a complete 
      package.

2)  It can support two most used object oriented programming language (Java and C#).
      The library and coding framework was developed using both of them. 

3)  It can easily connect with development software like Eclipse and Microsoft visual studio. 

4)  It can easily interact with the external application e.g Endur explicitly has a ICE Gateway 
      service which connects with the ICE (Intercontinental Exchange).
 
5)   I like the way Endur has different modules which can interact each other (In Endur language it is called different managers). Below are some of them :-
     
       1)   Trading Manager (For Deal Entering/booking Purposes)
       ii)  Market Manager (For curves and prices)
       iii)  Credit Manager (For Credit checks )
       iv)  Settlement Manager (For invoice status and generation)
       v) Accounting Manager (For Accounting )
       vi) Admin manager (Consists static data )
      vii) Service Manager (For End of Day and other workflow execution purposes)  

6) Reporting is done very easily using its Report Builder module which can supports different format also (csv,excel,crsytal) etc.

**What do you dislike about Endur?**

1)    UI (User Interface)  is bit outdated .
2)   Some core database tables are huge and if you try to open it via Endur it will hang usually. You 
       need to connect to the external database application like SQL developer or Toad to view those  
       tables.
3)   It can not support multi-threading and garbage collection(From coding perspective) .

**Recommendations to others considering Endur:**

Apart from its outdated user interface and few other things that I have mentioned . It is a very useful tool for Oil and energy industry.

**What problems is Endur solving and how is that benefiting you?**

1)   Automation - We are automating the manual processes for our clients with the help of Endur. 
      e.g  Deal booking , settlement , credit check, accounting everything single deal life cycle 
      process , we are automating them. 

2)  Report generation -  We developed customized reports  for our client based on their 
       requirements with the help of Endur.

  ### 6. The market leader in Energy trading & risk management software

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Oil & Energy | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 17, 2021

**What do you like best about Endur?**

Endur is a complete Front office, Middle office & Back office solution which covers the entire commodities trade lifecycle right from Trade Capture to Commodity risk to Logistics/Operations to Settlement & Accounting.

It is highly customizable, and clients can implement their own trading processes using the configurations and the Endur API code.

**What do you dislike about Endur?**

Since it is such a vast application, sometimes for a client which only requires a part of its functionality such as logistics, the rest of the functionalities may look redundant.

Also, the User interface is complicated for the new users -there are different screens and layouts for various operations, and new users may get lost sometimes. 

A lot of times, there is a need to have a specialist on board - in order to help navigate through the daily functioning of this application.

**Recommendations to others considering Endur:**

First, understand your requirement and look at other market players. 
For a big trading firm -Endur is ideal but for smaller trading companies, such as Eka software and Aspect are also good.

**What problems is Endur solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Endur helps in streamlining and optimizing the Energy (or Commodities) trading business. It helps in achieving business process optimizations in the trade lifecycle and removes any bottlenecks.
