"It would be nice if it became even more declarative in its development."

"The initial setup is complex."
"The flexibility in using the software could improve. I am from a product background and I've been testing a lot of applications, for example, Informatics. The UI, features, and cloud version could improve."
"I would like to see the customization of the reports become easier to work with instead of having technical support have to assist us."
"I'm only working on the front end with ERP's user interface, which isn't very easy for end-users. It's an old-school interface, so it's often challenging to find what you need."
"Though SAP ERP's FICO module is a strong part of the product, its integration capabilities can be made stronger."
"Their support should be improved. Instead of giving a general solution, their consultants should first try to understand the problem and then resolve the same. They should properly investigate the issue before providing the solution."
