Find out what your peers are saying about SAP, Microsoft, Oracle and others in ERP."The supplier invoice payment process is very easy and is integrated from the requisition to the payment (and to creating the asset)."
"Financial reconciliation and reporting."
"It's quite secure and fast, and we get an end-to-end solution."
"The interface is easy to use."
"On-Time Payroll and its features are user-friendly."
"What we like about Oracle E-Business Suite is that we didn't find any issues with it. In the Indian market, the subscription solutions aren't that suitable, even in terms of the complexity of the regulations, taxes, etc., so that's why we had to go for an on-premise solution that's hosted on the cloud, and we're happy with Oracle E-Business Suite. We also like that Oracle E-Business Suite is quite flexible, and we've also built some bolt-ons and they're working fine."
"Has good dashboard and drill-down features."
"Rapidly implement jobs, positions, grades, and steps within setup of organizational structure."
"I believe Penta costs less than SAP"
"We bought all licenses for the whole package in the very beginning, and now we're just paying for 404 licensed maintenance. It's a standard fee. Of course, we still pay partners for implementation."
"So there are a lot of features included with the ERP system."
"SAP Business One is very stable, and I would rate its performance as ten out of ten."
"It's user-friendly and comes with comprehensive manuals. So, it is easy to learn to use SAP Business One"
"Add-ons that can be implemented are most valuable."
"The documentation part and the user manuals provided by SAP are quite comprehensive."
"The solution offers a structured view and is useful for the top management. The top management finds it organized and structured. It is stable and gives you fewer headaches as an IT manager."
"The Material Requirements Planning (MRP) feature of SAP Business One has been most beneficial for our reporting needs."
"The implementation can take quite a bit of time."
"They don't have built-in bank integrations, which would be very helpful."
"We need more user-friendly fast formulas for all HRMS modules."
"The EBS Design to some extent is still monolithic."
"Standard reporting needs to be changed. Many of the standard reports look the same as they did in version 10.7, 20 years ago."
"Not user friendly."
"Oracle E-Business Suite's stability could be improved as they have a lot of bugs that need to be fixed."
"Movement to the cloud should be supported. Product support still needs to be improved."
"However, the production guys tell me that Penta is not suitable for mass production. If we build a hundred cars per day or more, then we'll have problems. At the same time, I can't say whether the issue is Penta or our process. In other words, maybe we have too many manual projects in it."
"There are a lot of good improvements coming out in every version. They release a new version every quarter, with all new up-and-coming things on each one. However, it might be lacking specifications for the specific verticals. However, SAP Business One is a generic tool. It's very widely used, and I understand why it's not into each vertical. There are solution partners available out there to give it those extra areas of what it needs, but this is depending on what kind of business you run."
"SAP Business One consumes a lot of network resources and bandwidth, especially when accessing the web solution, B1 Web Access."
"There are possibilities to extend its functionality. Things such as Quality Management System (QMS) and Payroll are currently not a part of the product. These things are needed."
"The solution's CRM module can be made better."
"The solution needs to have comprehensive visibility into the entire sales-to-purchase cycle, enabling businesses to monitor SO-PO relationships, track order progress, and generate insightful reports."
"The reading and retrieving of data are slow in the system."
"It is limiting in terms of the in-between communication for manufacturing. We are suffering from a lot of issues in production. We are now considering S/4HANA, and we are also looking for some customized tools to integrate with SAP Business One."
"SAP Business One could improve asset management, inventory management, banking system, and production. Additionally, SAP Business One did not deduct TDS, withholding tax on payments."
