"Financial reconciliation and reporting."
"Technical support is good."
"It was very easy to integrate the product into our existing infrastructure."
"It can easily be developed into an application."
"Epicor didn't care about user level and software applications. So, it's not so user-friendly for nontechnical people."
"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."
"The tool should provide a better user interface."

"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."
"Improving the reporting and user interface of Oracle ERP would be beneficial and is something that can be considered for future updates."
"I would say the integration needs improvement. Oracle needs to work on the integration layer to make the solution much more robust and modern."
"The solution needs to be updated with modern technology as it currently runs on the Java platform, JWE, which is obsolete and requires you to need an API supported browser."
"Movement of CIP Inventory cannot be monitored in Inventory module when we are using the CIP Account or movement of CIP Inventory in Asset module, which is not flexible like Inventory module."
