"Everything from the order to fulfillment to the payment process, except for physical packing and shipping, is fully automated for some customer orders."
"Calculations are a little bit faster. It can do the on-the-run calculations much better than other reporting platforms. You don't need any other specific tool. You can use Microsoft Office to start doing things with these reports."
"It's web-based so that I can have multiple users accessing the same data. It provides ease of use and its formatting means we can use the data, export it to Excel, and we manipulate the data afterward if we need to."
"The most valuable features are the reporting and the graphics."
"It has a very robust dashboard and ad-hoc reporting."
"The tool requires you to write a lot of code in Java and XSLT, which makes development tough."
"The initial setup is complex."
"They do not have a solid partner ecosystem, and they do not have a clear roadmap for down the line; they're missing that clear roadmap."
"There are also some features in the solution that are not user-friendly, like code lists with no search options. So, we must navigate hundreds of pages to check for one entry."
"The user interface is outdated. B2B Integrator was developed in the United States in the nineties, and the graphical user interface hasn't improved since. It's tough because you have to program the software in XML. Nowadays, other methods are easier to work with."
"Map translator needs more enhancements."
"There is no related transaction stored in the database because it's an OLTP application."
"The dashboard is not integrated and should be bundled by the product vendor."
"The initial setup was difficult because not all the information was included in the implementation model."
"The initial setup was complex and it took a lot of time to set up the infrastructure."
"It is very cumbersome and slow for making any changes. It doesn't have that many visuals to show different graphs and charts. It should have more visuals. It also doesn't support HTML5, which is useful for interactive sessions and reporting with dashboard etc. We are phasing it out because we need a newer platform that provides us more flexibility and more designs. Our use case is just to get the utility type of monthly reports, and we need visuals, customizations, columns, and certain sections on the report to show performance and other things. They are not updating their BI Publisher product, which was known as XML Publisher before Oracle bought it. It could be because they don't have that many clients using it. We are using it because we have this solution for years."
