Powerful accounting functionality, easy to implement, and same day support response
There is a tool in Infor VISUAL that is called Costing Utilities, they should make the functionality more flexible. In a future release, if they could add a CRM incorporated into the core of the solution that would be awesome. Additionally, a more flexible project model. They have a project model, but it's very challenging to set up values.

Provides efficiency for small businesses, but requires costly add-ons for broader capabilities
I am currently using SAP products but not primarily selling SAP. Regarding real-time data processing capabilities, it is partially helpful for decision-making. It has built-in capability for real-time data, but it's not interactive data analytics. People need another solution such as Power BI to be integrated to get real-time data with interactive analytics. When it comes to customizing reporting in SAP Business One, it has the capability to customize reports via SAP Crystal Reports. It has a good amount of reports, but for each business, you need to understand exactly what the customer needs to customize their reports. The solution includes a mobile app to access key business information, though it is a very weak mobile app. The main benefit SAP Business One provides to users is ease of access. It's very good to present to customers, both from the interface and capabilities perspective. It's suitable for small to medium companies, making the buy-in for the solution very good. The pricing for SAP Business One is very competitive. Overall, SAP Business One is a very good solution for small to medium businesses. If your company is looking for an ERP to run end-to-end business, this is the solution. You need specific add-ons to run in specific industries, but it's approximately 70% good for most small to medium companies. My overall rating for SAP Business One is 7 out of 10.

Cons

"There is a tool in Infor VISUAL that is called Costing Utilities, they should make the functionality more flexible."
"There is a tool in Infor VISUAL that is called Costing Utilities, they should make the functionality more flexible."
"It would be better if the solution was on a cloud infrastructure."
"Not a ten because it's not software for a structured company or something very big. That is my impression."
"SAP Business One web client has developed many features and only a couple of features need to be added to the web client before it becomes a full-fledged cloud product."
"Improvements are required in the support for partner-delivery add-ons, functional graphs, user development, and BI since certain shortcomings exist in these areas."
"The production scheduling, manufacturing, and planning could improve in SAP Business One. Additionally, the projection management module could improve. These functionalities are important in the construction industry we are working in at the moment."
"The look-and-feel of the system is quite outdated as compared to a lot of other products out there."
"Overall, the ERP solutions are stable, but it is more complicated and is not always stable for some customers."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I rate the solution's pricing a six or seven out of ten since it is expensive."
"The price of the solution is reasonable."

"I rate the product pricing structure at around six out of ten due to currency fluctuations posing challenges."
"Its price is reasonable. We have about 200 licenses. We have to pay every year for the license."
"Licenses are available on a monthly or yearly basis, and it costs about $1,200 per license, per user."
"I would rate Business One's pricing five out of five."
"We have an annual cost for licensing and storage in AWS."
