Find out in this report how the two ERP solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution makes everything organized for my organization or enterprise. It makes workflows more than clear."
"The most important feature of Microsoft Dynamics NAV is that it lets us centralize all our information so that we don't need to rely on any other software outside of Microsoft."
"It's quite useful for our production line, and it's easy to configure to our requirements."
"Microsoft Dynamics NAV is good for smaller-sized companies."
"Microsoft Dynamics NAV is brilliant and it's a different segment when comparing it with Dynamics AX. Dynamics AX is a larger product with much more features and it's aimed at a different segment of the market."
"We use Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central as CRM."
"For me, the main strengths of Microsoft Dynamics NAV are that it's user-friendly and light. These are its major wins. I have used other ERPs and their architecture were a little more complex when compared to the Microsoft Dynamics NAV architecture."
"The solution's integration between Teams, SharePoint, and Exchange Online is really helpful."
"The on-premises solution has maturity in features but also flex fields."
"The procure-to-pay is core to our business and relevant to us."
"The technical support for the solution was very good."
"It was easy to set up the product."
"E-Business Suite's best features are BAT functionality, flexibility, configurability, and integration with Oracle Database."
"I have found the solution to have a good interface, security, and is user-friendly."
"The most valuable features of Oracle E-Business Suite are all the 15 to 20 modules. We use them on a day-to-day basis."
"Valuable features include expense management and the accounting suite of products."
"For a big company like us with millions of transactions, the scalability isn't enough."
"The solution's event management can be improved."
"Any request that had come from the website had to go through an e-form which was then plugged into Microsoft Dynamics NAV. There was no direct data capture. That was the pain point, where clients had to build e-forms, and that caused delays in transactions and getting information."
"Microsoft Dynamics NAV could be improved in terms of exporting income statements and balance sheets. Currently, there is a feature, but you can only have the last three years. I spent some time trying to improve the KPI portion that exports the data, that already calculates the sub forms or subtotals, but they weren't able to break that up into different dimensions. They've now managed to crowd the separate table and you can export that, but it's only for the last three years. So, they could improve this solution by getting the chart of accounts or the account schedules to be exported, where you can go further than just three years with it."
"The UI is not particularly user-friendly and the CRM could do with some enhancements."
"They need to improve their processes."
"We need to customize more often than we would like."
"Microsoft Dynamics NAV could improve the reporting."
"The implementation can take quite a bit of time."
"Pricing is the biggest disadvantage of Oracle."
"Oracle E-Business Suite uses an old technology (Forms), which is Java-based."
"It would be nice to have more web services."
"We need more user-friendly fast formulas for all HRMS modules."
"One issue with the product is because it build on a lot of older technologies, there is a substantial technical debt in the system."
"There are some cycles in HR that are not straightforward."
"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."
