We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable aspect is that it is easy to use the software.""Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.""Technical support from SAP is great.""The product makes it easier to overview the ERP system and manufacturing processes through different modules.""The product is very user-friendly.""I believe the solution is very stable.""The top-level view and easy navigation to individual transaction levels are beautifully done in SAP Business One.""The way we can make changes in new fields, or make new rules with our IT department, has been very useful."

"The processes and the way we take advantage and use assistance are good.""Traditionally, SAP worked with Oracle databases, but SAP is getting rid of the other databases and promoting its own. SAP will stop support for other databases around 2026, so everyone is moving to SAP S/4HANA for the performance and because it's the preferred database for SAP. S/4HANA has new features from the front-end or application feature perspective. The idea is to move toward future-ready technology.""The interface is easy to manage.""We have a wide range of use cases for SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud. These include production planning, materials management, sales management, treasury, finance, appliance maintenance, real estate, and warehouse management.""My company has not had any problems with the product's initial setup phase.""This solution is as good as any other S/4HANA SAP solution. The continuous support we get is very valuable.""The most valuable feature is virtual modeling, which is beneficial because you don't really save the data multiple times the way we did in the past.""It is a stable and scalable product."

Cons
"It is hard for the customers to get the product from the market. Improvement-wise, it can shorten its time to reach the markets.""There is a need to make multiple changes in the code to make a few changes in any module of the product.""SAP Business One on AWS could improve by adding more functionality to the web client.""The reporting can be improved. Also, it is an expensive solution, and you need consultants for new interfaces as it's very rigid otherwise.""The browser access needs to improve, as everybody in the industry knows how limited it is.""The warehouse management system requires further improvement.""I would like SAP to replace Business One's fixed Web client with a native Web solution. Right now, their remote access is based on RVP. We have to access the solution through a Windows-based client. It's not a native Web interface.""The look-and-feel of the system is quite outdated as compared to a lot of other products out there."

More SAP Business One on AWS Cons →

"Customers need to be better educated about using the solution's cloud for digital transformation.""Customization is an area of concern in SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud, where improvements are required.""The cost could be improved. I think it's higher than the competition.""The only thing that could be improved is the cost.""SAP support isn't on par with products like Microsoft Azure or AWS. It's nowhere close to the competitors.""I would rate the stability a four out of ten. It's an area that could use improvement""The stability of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required.""The customer has a lot of dependencies on SAP which means they don't have much flexibility to go and update the system when or if they need to. They will need to wait for the quarterly updates. It's possible to maybe raise a special request with SAP if it is absolutely necessary."
