"The product enables users to customize their dashboards and reports."
"ERP is a valuable feature of this product."
"Oracle EBS adapts to our business rules, so we don't have to change them, whereas SAP is rigid. We need to change our business rules to implement SAP. Oracle's reporting is also excellent and it's easier for our technical team to customize the solution compared to SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, and other products."
"I like Oracle ERP for streamlining the entire process from PRTL and invoice payments. It also has the decision and internet sale order, and my customers can correct the internet decision. It automatically converts to the internet order, and they don't need to create the entry object. They don't need to make a secondary ledger in the parent company and subsidiary. That's very helpful for internet decisions. If they get an order at the parent company, it automatically creates the sales system in the subsidiary."
"The most valuable features are the financial-related capabilities."
"It makes financial operations easier to perform."
"The new Subledger Accounting feature is very strong."
"The solution has other core processes that can be implemented with customers according to their needs."
"It is a solution for GFMIS (Governmental Fiscal Management Information Systems)."
"In the newer version of Epicor ERP, it's very difficult to find out that tracing."
"Epicor didn't care about user level and software applications. So, it's not so user-friendly for nontechnical people."
"The tool should provide a better user interface."
"There are some glitches in Epicor ERP."
"There's a new version of the solution that has some bugginess. They're cleaning that up. The user interface is an area that needs improvement and they're improving."
"Right now, it doesn't really have a good cloud story."
"I would like to see a better reporting tool."
"A number of bugs in 9.05 were only fixed in 10."
"We need more user-friendly fast formulas for all HRMS modules."
"The initial setup was a little complex."
"There are some cycles in HR that are not straightforward."
"Oracle E-Business Suite's stability could be improved as they have a lot of bugs that need to be fixed."
"I would say the integration needs improvement. Oracle needs to work on the integration layer to make the solution much more robust and modern."
"Administration takes some effort. Administrating the technology stack is not so complex but application aware database administration and following the new methodologies like online patching can be a little complex and time consuming. Oracle should ease the administrators jobs and do some innovation on this administration area as well. Oracle Autonomous Database is Oracle's leading technology these days. Using a similar approach, application stack may become a little more self-managing."
"The deployment of the Oracle E-Business Suite was simple. I have done many deployments and I find it simple, but for others, it might not be easy."
"Movement to the cloud should be supported. Product support still needs to be improved."
