From their site:

Oracle's JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is an integrated applications suite of comprehensive enterprise resource planning software that combines business value, standards-based technology, and deep industry experience into a business solution with a low total cost of ownership.

Essentially, an ERP and set of buzzword-bingo cards in the same box.

Isn't that redundant? ERPs always come with buzzword-bingo sets, its like a defining feature of the product class.

Wow! That's hilarious. I must take a really skilled person to write something like that.

Yeah, this is the reason I asked in the first place. I could not, for the life of me, decipher this 100% buzzword-compliant description.

an integrated applications suite = bunch of software interfaces for...

of comprehensive enterprise resource planning software = your business purchasing and maintenance problems

that combines business value = giving you the most bang for your buck,

standards-based technology = not sure about this one... can be tweaked by your IT department OR helps you select products/services that meet regulatory standards so that you won't get sued for cutting corners

deep industry experience = nobody got fired for picking something everyone uses

into a business solution = we will unpack and assemble it for you, but you should really buy the Gold Support Package or budget a lot more for your IT department, because it isn't compatible with anything else

with a low total cost of ownership = we make most of our money on the Gold Support Package, but will let you fool yourself into thinking that you won't need it.
