We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The pricing is okay.

More JD Edwards World Pros →

"This solution offers customization. You'll have the ability to change and add your custom solutions and integrate them with the standard ones.""Oracle E-Business Suite's most valuable feature is the information that it provides. For example, it's good to know the AR due date and the receipt of the products that you have sold. It is a good solution overall for enterprise management.""I like Oracle ERP for streamlining the entire process from PRTL and invoice payments. It also has the decision and internet sale order, and my customers can correct the internet decision. It automatically converts to the internet order, and they don't need to create the entry object. They don't need to make a secondary ledger in the parent company and subsidiary. That's very helpful for internet decisions. If they get an order at the parent company, it automatically creates the sales system in the subsidiary.""The solution is perfect for big industry and high-scale e-business transactions.""As we have been using this for the past nine years we have had the opportunity to explore the product. Really everything has worked well and all the modules are very good.""The solution is good for small businesses.""Oracle EBS provides the customer with faster financial closing because of its accurate calculations.""The implementation of Oracle E-Business Suite is easy."

Cons
"I have more than 18 years of JDE experience in JDE EnterpriseOne and World versions. I think JDE is good but compared to SAP and Oracle EPS, we can see which area needs to have some improvement for JDE.""World is old, so everybody is looking to just upgrade or migrate from it.""There is no support from Oracle here. We only have third-party support.""The integration technology could be stronger at this point.""The pricing for JD Edwards World could be more affordable so that it could be available to a broader audience. My clients want more analytics or data analysis features from JD Edwards World.""I would like report creation to be easier.""There are a lot of new technologies coming out and JD Edwards World could improve by having better integration with other databases. The integration with the databases and applications should be in real-time, such as with Oracle.""Its end of life is already announced, so I don't expect lots of improvement coming from the product anywhere anymore."

More JD Edwards World Cons →

"They should have a nicer way to handle very high volumes of data because we deal with really high volumes, and sometimes, we end up with performance issues.""It should be made a little bit more user friendly. When I complete my implementation and hand it over to the clients or the person who will operate it on a day-to-day basis, they find it a little bit difficult because they are not from a highly qualified IT background. I want Oracle to make it a little bit more user friendly.""It would be great to see Oracle E-Business Suite become less dependent on the SAO solution, which is an integration solution for Oracle platforms.""Oracle E-Business Suite uses an old technology (Forms), which is Java-based.""The initial setup was a little complex.""They should include database functionality.""I would rate the support for Oracle E-Business Suite a four out of five.""It is still a little outdated as far as what we consider a twenty-first century software. You're still using Oracle forms, that sort of thing."

    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.”
