I hear customers complain about the licensing structure. Oracle Hyperion's licensing structures are quite expensive for some companies, especially medium-sized companies because of the user-based license.

I listened to a CFO recently - his complaint was not being able to fully understand the costs associated with the project. They'd really done their homework, ran a super tight project management team, overcome huge implementation challenges, and successfully rolled this behemoth $900k ERP project out. It was six weeks late and $75k over budget and the entire reputation of the project within the company was that the project was a failure. Now by any realistic measure - getting a huge ERP project rolled out to a large company is not an easy lift. They were so close to the goal, yet perceived as a failed project, which is kind of devastating when you're in charge and demoralizing to the entire team. The truth is, you don't know what you don't know. One of the things that Profit From ERP preaches is changing the goalposts. Instead of an arbitrary go-live date, we focus more on goals like 'within 6 months after go-live we'll reduce inventory by 7%.' Now, instead of starting as a failure, we're working toward success. I know it sounds simple, but it changes perception, identifies steps toward goals, and measures progress - which the ERP is designed to do in the first place. Plus, having done hundreds of ERP implementations, our goal is to help negotiate licensing and implementation costs - but we also recognize there are hidden costs that will surface during implementation, staffing, and support changes - and we're having our client companies recognize that unseen costs and common and expected, so budget for them.

I haven't been around pricing for a long time. Their model for what we have was totally different from what they have for their cloud applications. So, I don't even know what a cloud app costs at this point per person or per user.

It's too expensive. As Oracle's pricing is on the higher end, most businesses prefer to have their own private cloud.

There are annual licensing costs associated with the solution. Some people may consider the solution to be expensive, however, for all that it does, anything similar would require the licensing of more than one product.
