Cons
"There are some glitches in Epicor ERP.""Right now, it doesn't really have a good cloud story.""I would like to see a better reporting tool.""A number of bugs in 9.05 were only fixed in 10.""Epicor didn't care about user level and software applications. So, it's not so user-friendly for nontechnical people.""The tool should provide a better user interface.""There's a new version of the solution that has some bugginess. They're cleaning that up. The user interface is an area that needs improvement and they're improving.""In the newer version of Epicor ERP, it's very difficult to find out that tracing."

"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.""The interface could be improved in future releases.""The main thing Cloud ERP could improve is usability. However, it's not just an issue with Oracle. Most ERP solutions are not very user-friendly, so I think that could be the key improvement.""UI is not very presentable for a cloud solution.""Technical support is good, however, sometimes we do need to wait for an answer.""Localization of functionality for Europe and Latin American countries legal and fiscal requirements, reporting, and integration with tax authorities.""The solution's new analytics information, dashboard, and flexibility of reporting could be improved."

    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.
