"The ability to link documents to accounts, partners and events via the Golden/Yellow Arrow feature is very useful."
"SAP Business One has valuable and helpful features for standard utilities, such as sales, purchasing, inventory, and finance, including Indian localization. Additionally, it is strong in the area of production.

These add-ons run within the solution and can be provided to customers based on their specific production needs."

"There are a lot of good improvements coming out in every version. They release a new version every quarter, with all new up-and-coming things on each one. However, it might be lacking specifications for the specific verticals. However, SAP Business One is a generic tool. It's very widely used, and I understand why it's not into each vertical. There are solution partners available out there to give it those extra areas of what it needs, but this is depending on what kind of business you run."
"Overall, the integration and the reports can be better."
"There are improvements needed. However, they provide improvements over time."
"The price could improve for SAP Business One."
"The solution needs to have comprehensive visibility into the entire sales-to-purchase cycle, enabling businesses to monitor SO-PO relationships, track order progress, and generate insightful reports."
