Pros
"It has worked fine for many years.""Menu creation is easier now.""The pricing is okay.

I think EnterpriseOne is more convenient for users to do the inquiry and do the data entry. The UI is better than JDE World. For JDE products, including the World version, is very flexible. It's a good product for clients.""The most valuable feature of JD Edwards World is its ease of use and unique functions."

"Oracle's technical support is better than others.""The most valuable feature of Oracle E-Business Suite is the customization.""Oracle E-Business Suite is a stable product.""On-Time Payroll and its features are user-friendly.""EBS has lots of application families and lots of features.

Cons
"I have more than 18 years of JDE experience in JDE EnterpriseOne and World versions. I think JDE is good but compared to SAP and Oracle EPS, we can see which area needs to have some improvement for JDE.""The integration technology could be stronger at this point.""World is old, so everybody is looking to just upgrade or migrate from it.""I would like report creation to be easier.""The pricing for JD Edwards World could be more affordable so that it could be available to a broader audience. My clients want more analytics or data analysis features from JD Edwards World.""Improvements are needed in transitioning JD Edwards World to a more stable and reliable cloud product, particularly in terms of GDPR and data privacy compliance.""Its end of life is already announced, so I don't expect lots of improvement coming from the product anywhere anymore.""Update interface capabilities and data maintenance tools to modern standards."

More JD Edwards World Cons →

"From the business processes, there are areas where you could streamline new processes.""The initial setup was a little complex.""It should be made a little bit more user friendly. When I complete my implementation and hand it over to the clients or the person who will operate it on a day-to-day basis, they find it a little bit difficult because they are not from a highly qualified IT background. I want Oracle to make it a little bit more user friendly.""The initial setup is complex.""The users feel that the product is not user-friendly.""It is still a little outdated as far as what we consider a twenty-first century software. You're still using Oracle forms, that sort of thing.""Oracle E-Business Suite's stability could be improved as they have a lot of bugs that need to be fixed.""They should include database functionality."

    Kopano R., Freelancer at a tech services company, says, “What I found most valuable in Oracle E-Business Suite is the patching because it is straightforward. As long as you follow Oracle's best practices, you are able to finish the task of patching without a problem. I like that it's also easy to add products, e.g. if you want to add on financials, you can, or if you don't have financials, you can expand on that. I like that Oracle E-Business Suite is really scalable.”
