We performed a comparison between Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and Oracle E-Business Suite based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two ERP solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most important feature of Microsoft Dynamics NAV is that it lets us centralize all our information so that we don't need to rely on any other software outside of Microsoft."
"It's quite useful for our production line, and it's easy to configure to our requirements."
"The solution's integration between Teams, SharePoint, and Exchange Online is really helpful."
"We like the manufacturing and case management modules."
"One developer is enough to maintain the solution. Microsoft 365 is changing technology. The product is a user-friendly ERP solution."
"The initial setup is easy - because it stands on Microsoft offerings, it's simple and intuitive to use."
"The product is customizable so we can tune it according to our requirements."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central is the Teams application. I use Teams to share documents amongst my team members, have meetings, and talk to them."
"If I want to manage many parts of my organization, such as finances, proceedings, or supply chain I would typically need to buy many different solutions. However, with Oracle E-Business Suite, it is all that is needed. This ERP system has many modules."
"Oracle E-Business Suite is flexible. Its rich functionality can work in any client environment or business."
"There is essentially one solution for every industry within Oracle — you won't require a third-party solution."
"Finance, HRMS, and payroll are all great, and Oracle EBS is fantastic."
"The solution is perfect for big industry and high-scale e-business transactions."
"The solution has other core processes that can be implemented with customers according to their needs."
"The most valuable features of the Oracle E-Business Suite are best practices, built-in processes, and easy configuration. Plenty of system functionality and customization."
"Oracle EBS adapts to our business rules, so we don't have to change them, whereas SAP is rigid. We need to change our business rules to implement SAP. Oracle's reporting is also excellent and it's easier for our technical team to customize the solution compared to SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, and other products."
"There is room for improvement in the ability to reverse or correct transactions more easily."
"I wouldn't say that Microsoft Dynamics is very scalable."
"The solution must provide more AI features."
"Microsoft Dynamics NAV could improve the reporting."
"There is a book for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central explaining how to use it. But it is not easy to use, and it is not easy to learn."
"The performance and virtual machine backup is not good with this solution and need improvements."
"There is a lot of improvement needed in the top model, such as better integration with logistics, quality management, and data modeling for all revenue types."
"I am hoping there is more integration with other platforms, more features, and customization in the next release."
"The operations could be better, specifically for manufacturing processes."
"Oracle has improved a lot because Oracle E-Business Suite is quite outdated. Oracle built the Oracle Fusion platform and it has many improved processes. We registered a few enhancements requests, but it's a very long bureaucratic process with Oracle. It doesn't make any sense to communicate with Oracle about what changes should be made to the system."
"We don't like Oracle EBS because it is very old. Nowadays, all the systems are on the cloud and web-based. With Oracle EBS, you need a huge setup before installing it. You need a lot of servers. There are a lot of problems and bugs in the system. We have to move from Oracle EBS to another system. In terms of improvements, it can have better training for end users and better support."
"We would like to see some automation in this solution."
"The system has bugs, is not user friendly, and requires too much customization."
"They should include database functionality."
"Reporting is a big area for improvement. It needs to provide the ability to extract data from the suite. Oracle has also been making a great effort to make E-Business Suite more user-friendly but there are still areas where a focus on User Experience would help."
"One issue with the product is because it build on a lot of older technologies, there is a substantial technical debt in the system."
