More Oracle E-Business Suite Pros →

More SAP ERP Pros →

Cons
"Needs better integration with IoT solutions.""The solution could be easier to implement. However, the complexity was in our internal processes meeting our country's requirements. Every country has a slightly different process, taxation, and rules. That was the difficult part, not the solution itself. I expect our experience would have been more or less the same with any ERP, such as SAP, Navision, or Dynamics.""They need to improve the logs and need to write some sort of script that clears logs after so many days.""The initial setup of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is straightforward. However, it could improve.""We originally used EnterpriseOne for preventative maintenance, but it is not very good at that so we migrated to Maximo for that task.""They have been improving it every day, but it could have more automation.""I would like the user experience to be more user-friendly.""I haven't come across any downsides just yet."

More JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Cons →

"In the future, Oracle E-Business Suite could improve by having a better UI. Competitors are providing much better interfaces.""It would be nice to have more web services.""There are some cycles in HR that are not straightforward.""Standard reporting needs to be changed. Many of the standard reports look the same as they did in version 10.7, 20 years ago.""Improvements could be made in mobility for mobile applications or tablets.""The initial setup was a little complex.""We expect Oracle to go into continuous innovation mode and provide simplified integration solutions.""A downside of Oracle E-Business Suite is its interface because it's less user-friendly than the latest cloud solutions. As an organization, Oracle now has more interest in cloud applications, so nowadays, it doesn't focus much on Oracle E-Business Suite, an on-premises solution, so this is another downside."

More Oracle E-Business Suite Cons →

"Improvements to the UI. The UI is pretty old, but this will change with the upcoming release of S.4.​""The speed to build and the speed to deliver could be better.""There are a lot of manual tasks that are used by a lot of people, so it is a very good candidate for RPA.""It is a little difficult to use.""The system is very big. It is not exactly user-friendly, due to the fact that it's so massive and complex.""I always prefer using an S/4HANA system.""The solution's UI could be better.""Although you can use SAP as a Warehouse Management System, and you don’t need any other program for that purpose, it is not enough as a Transportation Management System. You need another program which is integrated with SAP."

  • "The price of the solution is not cheap. However, it is priced average amongst competitors."
  • "There is an annual license for this solution."

  • "The pricing is high."
  • "In order to minimize the implementation and consultancy costs, business lines should have proper definitions. They need to have a proper way of retrieving their data, which should be structured well."

    Reviews from Real Users:

    Kopano R., Freelancer at a tech services company, says, “What I found most valuable in Oracle E-Business Suite is the patching because it is straightforward. As long as you follow Oracle's best practices, you are able to finish the task of patching without a problem. I like that it's also easy to add products, e.g. if you want to add on financials, you can, or if you don't have financials, you can expand on that. I like that Oracle E-Business Suite is really scalable.”

    Mohammed G., Senior Oracle Application Consultant at a comms service provider, writes, “Oracle E-Business Suite consists of a lot of streams, such as financial and HR processes of the enterprise companies. We are using most of the Oracle financial modules, and we have an Oracle stream, FI procurement stream, and HR streams, which have a lot of applications. Oracle E-Business Suite has over 20 different modules to choose from, it is comprehensive. Additionally, the integration is very good. “
