Presents all information in one place and automates some of our manual processes
This product is used by more than 50 colleges in our state and it is purchased by the government. The system office does the testing and pushes out the patches to us, so everything has been testing. Even if there is any customization that needs to be done, it happens before it comes to us. As such, I haven't had to contact technical support myself.

AI automation saves time and simplifies financial processes
The data entry process is very time-consuming. Without using options like ODA, manually entering data in the GLS screen or Oracle invoices is a time-consuming job. The screens could be improved, as a lot of mouse clicks are required, and multiple fields need to be entered. Although it has a workaround with spreadsheets, the screen interface could be better.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I like that all of the student information is in one place."
"The solution is approximately 70 percent scalable. We have more than 100 people using the solution in my organization."
"The solution is highly configurable"
"The best part of Oracle ERP Cloud is that everything can be found in a single place."
"It's easy to deploy, and we don't have to worry about upgrading anything."
"I find that the overall framework and database structure is quite comprehensive."
"The navigation is user-friendly and the management-related dashboards provide excellent functionality."
"Built-in business intelligence has real-time reporting features that are quite handy."
"It provides our management a real-time view of operations."
 

Cons

"The functionality for monitoring satisfactory academic progress has room for improvement."
"Oracle ERP Cloud needs to be more mature, especially in terms of some advanced modules, such as manufacturing, supply chain planning, and production."
"Improve support services in the new features roadmap."
"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."
"If you go for the real-time process, the patch of work and the time to update the product will be too much."
"Localization of functionality for Europe and Latin American countries legal and fiscal requirements, reporting, and integration with tax authorities."
"I would like to see Oracle improve the automation of data entry."
"The solution could benefit from improvements in project management, project execution, and project costing, especially for industries like construction."
"I would like to improve the tool’s budgeting and reporting. I know that Oracle is working on the tool’s analytics part so I expect the analytical feature in its future releases."
