More Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP Pros →

"ByDesign's best features are its speed, real-time data, and reporting.""When comparing SAP Business ByDesign to much larger ERP solutions, such as SAP ECC 6.0 or SAP S/4HANA, SAP Business ByDesign is more user-friendly and easier to implement.""I have found the consolidation of the business and group reports very useful. There is plenty of features and the manufacturing and finance aspect of the solution are strong.""I like the tool’s customization.""The most valuable features of SAP Business ByDesign are customer invoicing and cost and revenue, from which I get the data for my project reports.""The most valuable features of Business ByDesign are the integration of its modules, analytics, and dashboards.""The most valuable feature of SAP Business ByDesign is it has a streamlined design.""I like its modern approach.

Cons
"One disadvantage is that we don't have immediate access to evaluate or fix data that is not in the app until we own the database.""I would like to see an improved approach to pulling data with VDI.""The expenses mobile app calculates different mileages than the URL version.""In terms of areas for improvement, there are still a lot of other features that need to be incorporated into the future releases of Oracle ERP Cloud. We're hoping those would come soon because they're available in other ERP systems. For example, we used to have a lot of AME customizations in the BPM, but now we have a very limited scope, so it would be great if we could extend our scope. Currently, we are working with product teams to get through some of those solutions, and how we could implement them, so we have some workarounds to deal with, but we still have a long road ahead.""Localization of functionality for Europe and Latin American countries legal and fiscal requirements, reporting, and integration with tax authorities.""I would like to see Oracle improve the automation of data entry.""The solution's new analytics information, dashboard, and flexibility of reporting could be improved.""Oracle can make the system more stable which includes some changes as some of the use cases were not available in Oracle's systems and the element’s value needed to be defined."

More Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP Cons →

"SAP Business ByDesign can improve the flexibility and user-friendliness of the reporting during the implementations. Customizing the reports inside the device requires a lot of knowledge and most of the time a developer level is needed. For example, if you want to have a more specific reporting layout.""The Purchase to Pay process could benefit from further sophistication and additional functionality. It would be helpful for the user community to receive clearer information about the future roadmap of the business. Unfortunately, there were some confusing articles in the German press towards the end of last year about the future of SAP Business ByDesign. Therefore, more clarity is needed in the support function to address this.""The payroll module of the solution could improve.""I would like the tool’s interface to be better. Currently, we use a client application to access the product. I want that to be replaced with a web version. I would like to improve the tool’s internet availability. I also want the product’s setup to be easier.""The solution does not support customization for forms and reports. It's not flexible in case you need some enhancements in business processes.""With SAP S/4HANA, you can design your release strategy and modify it to include as many people as possible, which is missing in SAP Business ByDesign.""ByDesign could be improved by making screen modifications easier.""The database needs to be more customizable."

    Oracle’s AI-powered digital assistant simplifies and speeds common tasks, allowing you to ask simple questions like “what’s the status of my open purchase requisitions?” and “what reconciliations are due today?” Personalized tasks like invoices or over-budget notifications are delivered to you proactively, so approvals move faster too.

  • Launch new business models, faster

    Staying ahead of customer trends and emerging competitors gets harder every day. With Oracle cloud ERP, it's easier to identify and launch new business models—and monitor results in real time so you can constantly refine your approach. Paired with machine learning insights like customer churn, you'll predict and avoid problems before they can do harm.
