We performed a comparison between Microsoft Dynamics GP and Oracle E-Business Suite based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two ERP solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We have gained the capability to control and address various issues within the financial module effectively."
"The most valuable feature is financial control. The accounting aspect allows us to manage our clients and payments."
"It is a tried and tested ERP system which if used correctly, is definitely a very good program for managing all aspects of a business from customer sales, and receivables management, to payable management and finance reporting. So, it's super critical for any mid-sized company."
"I haven't used it a lot, but the best thing is that the processes are very detailed."
"The fixed assets, payroll, the data module, and user-friendliness are most valuable."
"You can track everything from beginning to end quite easily."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to easily update and maintain accurate data across all aspects of our operations."
"The solution offers integrations with other software as well. We have integration with Microsoft Office where we can do Word and Excel, etc."
"Oracle EBS provides the customer with faster financial closing because of its accurate calculations."
"It can easily be developed into an application."
"You can group them into the BIs, which is business intelligence. You get your own key performance indicators and build your own reports or you could have your own screens, and it changes in real time."
"If I want to manage many parts of my organization, such as finances, proceedings, or supply chain I would typically need to buy many different solutions. However, with Oracle E-Business Suite, it is all that is needed. This ERP system has many modules."
"Oracle E-Business Suite is flexible. Its rich functionality can work in any client environment or business."
"Oracle E-Business Suite improves forecast accuracy, reduces costs, and increases manufacturing capacity."
"It provides a well-centered database that is feature rich."
"It's a scalable product."
"The biggest problem with GP is that it's not cloud based and it doesn't lend itself to subscription licensing. But Microsoft wants everything in the cloud and licensed on a subscription basis.Even tThough GP can be deployed on a cloud server, but basically, it's a Windows based product. It uses the older model and companies purchase the program and pay a 16-18 sixteen- eighteen percent annual renewal fee but Microsoft wants everybody to pay monthly or annual renewal fees on a subscription basis."
"Many of our customers are migrating to the cloud rather than staying on-premises."
"There should also be extra redundancy when posting to modules. We use different sets of books such as CashBook and CheckBooks therefore if I select the wrong one the solution allows the transaction to just pass without warning."
"With payroll, the payroll that they have offers US or Canadian tax. However, here, our tax payments are different from the US and Canada. It is very difficult to put in our tax tables. We need some customization. It should be readily available for any country to use according to their tax implications. The system should know different types of tax regimes around the world so that it can accommodate. It's a little bit rigid on that."
"This is now a legacy product, so they're phasing it out over time."
"It requires a lot of expertise to implement."
"As for room for improvement, they have different modules, project and analytical accounting, but it will be good to have that kind of part in the standard package. To have that additional reporting functionality where you can add an attribute or something, which you can report again. So you can analyze the cost by not just natural accounts but also by a project, without having to go through another module edit on top and then the other module edit on top. The more modules you add, sometimes it doesn't work that well. Additionally, it would be easier to have the solution on the cloud. That's our consideration. We are trying to move all our systems to the cloud, and GP is one of them that we are going to move in the next couple of years. I would rate the solution seven or seven point five out of ten."
"The purchase order and processing aspects of the solution should be improved."
"In the future, Oracle E-Business Suite could improve by having a better UI. Competitors are providing much better interfaces."
"It is on the expensive side."
"There are always some bugs and missing patches."
"The deployment of the Oracle E-Business Suite was simple. I have done many deployments and I find it simple, but for others, it might not be easy."
"Needs more real-time visualizations, in terms of smarter dashboards and reporting competing with the speed of HANA."
"Oracle has improved a lot because Oracle E-Business Suite is quite outdated. Oracle built the Oracle Fusion platform and it has many improved processes. We registered a few enhancements requests, but it's a very long bureaucratic process with Oracle. It doesn't make any sense to communicate with Oracle about what changes should be made to the system."
"The simplicity of the user experience needs to be improved tremendously."
"The users feel that the product is not user-friendly."
