Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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 modules, like the accounting and procurement modules, especially the finance and accounting modules, are quite impressive in the solution.""SAP Business One on AWS has good documentation and has many services in the cloud.""The most valuable features of SAP Business One on AWS are the CRM and the sales module.""It is well-established and caters to our user base efficiently.""It is very flexible...It is a stable solution."

"It has significantly streamlined our operations.""The processes and the way we take advantage and use assistance are good.""This solution is as good as any other S/4HANA SAP solution. The continuous support we get is very valuable.""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.""It is a scalable solution if you have a good cloud infrastructure.""The scalability is good because we have some cloud resources to support the ERP.""The solution is stable and we have never had a problem. We started with one terabyte of data when the solution was first implemented and today we have around almost 600 gigabytes of data, which means means the compression works properly. Before migrating from ECC, we had nine terabytes of data.""The interface is easy to manage."

Cons
"Analytics could be much better.""The web client is an area with shortcomings, which SAP is presently working on, and needs to improve.""SAP Business One on AWS could improve by adding more functionality to the web client.""The browser access needs to improve, as everybody in the industry knows how limited it is.""There are limitations of SAP Business One. It's a complex topic, and exploring options like SAP HANA is challenging at the moment. Understanding the limitations of ERP requires thorough research. I suggest conducting some preliminary investigations into ERP products before making a decision. We chose SAP Business One as it caters to SMEs like ours, acknowledging and accepting its limitations. While a larger product exists, switching would entail budget considerations due to the ongoing implementations. Therefore, the current situation with SAP Business One is not a matter of concern.""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.""I would like to achieve better integration with AWS so that it becomes more interconnected with the SAP system.""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 →

"The main thing is that SAP needs to give better response times for support tickets.""The product must provide more details of the errors.""They should probably offer more cloud services. Most of the cloud infrastructure providers we have make everything pretty transparent, you know what you're getting, you have all these metrics and measurements and everything in the dashboard. Here you have to go through the contracting negotiations and all those things.""This product is not mature enough at this point in time.""The solution is scalable from an infrastructure point of view. However, it becomes more complex over time because technology is changing so fast.""It’s a common challenge with applications like Microsoft and SAP that they tend to rely on engineers rather than human resources personnel for knowledge and implementation.""I would rate the stability a four out of ten. It's an area that could use improvement""The cost could be improved. I think it's higher than the competition."
