Find out what your peers are saying about SAP, Microsoft, Oracle and others in ERP."Control and governance are the best features."
"It is a stable solution."
"It is easier to migrate to SAP ERP from a legacy system. We have different products for data services, and it is easier to migrate to SAP ERP as compared to other solutions. Stability is one of the main features of SAP. What makes SAP ERP better than others is that SAP has taken into consideration the business processes of different industries, such as manufacturing. They have done the research, and they know what are the best practices. They have already implemented these best practices in SAP ERP, which are readily available for a client. Clients can also customize it based on their individual needs."
"It's a good ERP system."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"The product connects to every software."
"It integrates everything into one process."
"I like the solution’s features in finance, supply chain, sales, and distribution."
"Unit4 Business World is a reliable product."
"The product's self-service capabilities have benefited our organization."
"SAP is not making a big effort to make it easy to integrate solutions from other vendors. It's not easy at all... Integration is what they can do better."
"Improvements to the UI. The UI is pretty old, but this will change with the upcoming release of S.4."
"Sometimes the cost is not reasonable, such as in the case of budgeting."
"We will not make any major changes, and we are not expecting any enhancements or new features from SAP because they already have a new solution. No development is happening on SAP ERP because SAP has come up with a new version called SAP S/4HANA, which is memory-based technology. We are planning to upgrade to SAP S/4HANA, but we don't know when it will happen. We are in the preparation phase."
"SAP needs to be more intuitive."
"The problem with SAP is that whenever there is a modification, or if a new field needs to be added, they charge tens of thousands, hundreds, or even two hundred thousand dollars. That is not anything in which I am really interested. For instance, consider a single-use case. I have to enter the root causes for a certain operation or failure. That option does not exist anywhere in SAP, not in manufacturing, not in logistics, not in anything. It is completely missing. The root cause analysis is very common across industries, yet SAP does not offer this option. A line field or a metaparticle, for example, was delayed. If you have the choice to input the warehouse operator or if the person who submitted the document has the opportunity to enter, this has been postponed for N, X, Y, or Z reasons."
"They need to improve a few processes, including transformation, intelligence, governance, modeling, etc."
"It needs a more complete guidance with complete processes. Right now, it only has single transactions."
"I would like to see more flexibility in the customization for us to be able to customize it based on the client's requirements."
"Reporting and analytics features must be improved."
