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.

There is room for improvement in the reporting capability. To use it properly, you need intensive IT support. You cannot write your own reports.

I would say budget controlling needs improvement. I mention this because it does not have all the functionalities that we need in terms of managing the budget.

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.

SAP Business ByDesign can improve the flexibility and user-friendliness of the reporting during the implementations.

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 Arabic localization is neglected. It should have an Arabic interface. It lacks Arabic translation or support from right to left.

SAP Business ByDesign is a very vast product, but it has to be a bit more centralized. All the models need to be more centralized for a better experience.
