"The most valuable feature of SAP Business One is the dashboards.""All parts for inventory control, project budget, accounting, and business information are valuable. It is very friendly to obtain information. It is also very easy to make the changes that we need. We have a developer with us, and he can make the required changes or rules.""SAP Business One has valuable and helpful features for standard utilities, such as sales, purchasing, inventory, and finance, including Indian localization. Additionally, it is strong in the area of production. It has enhanced capabilities in advanced production planning, maintenance, and other features as needed through the use of add-ons provided by partners. These add-ons run within the solution and can be provided to customers based on their specific production needs.""The most valuable feature of this solution is Financial Management.""Business One's best feature is that all the modules are integrated.""Add-ons that can be implemented are most valuable.""The most valuable features of the solution are reporting, a dashboard, customized reports, and third-party integration.""The Material Requirements Planning (MRP) feature of SAP Business One has been most beneficial for our reporting needs."

Cons
"The build-in dashboard and reporting customization should be improved.""The reporting Module should be improved and a drag and drop functionality should be added.""Improvements could be made regarding user-friendliness and transitioning fully to a web version. Features like forex reconciliation and a cash flow planning module could enhance the solution."

"There are a lot of good improvements coming out in every version. They release a new version every quarter, with all new up-and-coming things on each one. However, it might be lacking specifications for the specific verticals. However, SAP Business One is a generic tool. It's very widely used, and I understand why it's not into each vertical. There are solution partners available out there to give it those extra areas of what it needs, but this is depending on what kind of business you run.""SAP Business One consumes a lot of network resources and bandwidth, especially when accessing the web solution, B1 Web Access.""You get support through the vendor, not SAP directly. If your vendor is good, you get good support. If it is not a good vendor, the support is very bad.""Production area and Bill of Materials: effective date and Subcontracting process.""The user interface could be improved with drag-and-drop functionality that it currently lacks.""The solution could improve by having some added authentication, such as SAP CC or SAP S4HANA.""While SAP has been a leader in the enterprise and SME segments, many competitors have emerged with new features, especially in analytic modules like Salesforce and Oracle. The rise of cloud tools from providers like Amazon, Google, and Azure, offering analytics and visual analytical tools, has contributed to this shift.It seems SAP Business One may not have focused as much on this aspect, prioritizing the basic functioning of the enterprise. As a result, the latest user experience, particularly in digital aspects of data consumption, may not be on par with what's available in the market.""The price could improve for SAP Business One."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The price of the solution is fair compared to competitors."
  • "The solution is moderately priced. The licensing cost is around sixty thousand USD for annual maintenance. If you're using an application-specific license, it is a little cheaper. I rate the pricing a five out of ten."
  • "I rate the tool's pricing an eight out of ten. Customizations can cost you extra money."
  • More 3i Infotech ORION Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Business One is reasonable considering the functionality."
  • "In terms of price, it's fair, but the problem is with AMC."
  • "Its price is reasonable. People are able to spend that much."
  • "Its licensing model is good. There is a one-off payment for the software license, and after that, you only need to pay the annual maintenance fee. Compared to other cloud-based systems, this cost model is quite reasonable for SMEs."
  • "We pay annually. It is around 800 a month."
  • "We feel that the licensing fees are a bit on the higher side."
  • "We compared the Microsoft solution with Oracle NetSuite, as they have a price decrease. It is, however, not that much cheaper, and the price is comparable to SAP."
  • "Its price is reasonable. We have about 200 licenses. We have to pay every year for the license."
