Featured Reviews

Labhesh Hase - PeerSpot reviewer
Cost-effectiveness and pricing consistency support diverse high-intensity applications
The services of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) are quite competent when compared to AWS ( /products/amazon-aws-reviews ) Cloud, and they are also lower in cost. We use compute, storage, and network services. A notable feature is Oracle Cloud Infrastructure's consistent global pricing, which is advantageous. Furthermore, applications using Oracle Database ( /products/oracle-database-reviews ) not only work seamlessly on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) but also benefit from a 25% offset on Oracle Database licenses.
Muhammad Shehzad - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides easy navigation to individual transaction levels and good stability
The warehouse management system requires further improvement. Right now, there is no built-in application for using barcodes or QR codes by the warehouse or operational teams. Customers often rely on third-party add-ons for such features. There should be a mobile-based handheld application, especially for the warehouse team or the operational team, to use barcode-based or QR-based scanning. In additional features, it would be great if the mobile application supported barcode and QR code usage. If this feature is available, it would be very useful.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"We use Oracle Cloud to host the OIC (Oracle Integration Cloud Service) and APEX."
"Overall, there are some very good features on Oracle and it offers good customization capabilities."
"The initial setup was easy. It takes just a few minutes to create a virtual machine."
"You can customize everything according to your preferences. I've reached out to customer support many times. I highly recommend using Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. With the product, you have complete control over the management of your system."
"I find the Single Sign-On, SSO, feature to be valuable."
"The pricing of the solution is pretty good."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) is Data Safe, which allows for the masking and encryption of personal identifiable information, ensuring data security."
"The most valuable features are the manageability and the user interface."
"It is very flexible...It is a stable solution."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"As a business technology platform, it is a flexible platform. It enables the customer to do faster integrations, and the solution's functioning requires low cost."
"The production and planning processes of the solution are very good."
"The maintenance is a significant advantage as it is supported by the international community rather than the local community."
"The most valuable feature of SAP Business One is its reporting capability."
"The way we can make changes in new fields, or make new rules with our IT department, has been very useful."
"The most valuable features of SAP Business One on AWS are the CRM and the sales module."
 

Cons

"I would like more technical expertise."
"The product’s pricing should be reduced."
"Sometimes when we install something, we need to partition and maybe rebuild the index. This can cause some issues for performance. In the future, I would like to see more stability and fewer bugs."
"Oracle support could be better; we had cases where certain regions experienced specific issues and received little help from Oracle."
"Oracle Cloud's support could be improved because its second-line support has weak engineers who handle stuff a little bit slowly."
"This service is very specific to Oracle and we cannot have other types of workloads on Oracle Cloud."
"I work with many clouds and I would say, in comparison, others have a better presentation of services and they have clearer steps in terms of implementation."
"The product could use some more development and maturity so it has more peripheral functionality already integrated."
"The interface needs to be improved. It needs to be more user-friendly."
"There are limitations of SAP Business One. It's a complex topic, and exploring options like SAP HANA is challenging at the moment. Understanding the limitations of ERP requires thorough research. I suggest conducting some preliminary investigations into ERP products before making a decision. We chose SAP Business One as it caters to SMEs like ours, acknowledging and accepting its limitations. While a larger product exists, switching would entail budget considerations due to the ongoing implementations. Therefore, the current situation with SAP Business One is not a matter of concern."
"The look-and-feel of the system is quite outdated as compared to a lot of other products out there."
"It would be beneficial to have access to real-time data from our machines."
"There is room for improvement in the manufacturing and logistics areas of SAP Business One on AWS."
"There is a need to make multiple changes in the code to make a few changes in any module of the product."
"I feel that these vendors must be well trained so that they can deploy this solution."
"The technical support from SAP is very restricted to its knowledge base. It does not add much beyond what is already available in the knowledge base."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Make sure you read the fine print."
"Improvements can be made with respect to flexibility in the licensing model."
"Oracle Cloud is cheaper than other products."
"OCI's pricing is one of its best features."
"My ROI has increased."
"On a monthly basis, we pay around $2,500 for licensing fees, with no additional costs. We do pay extra licensing for other on-premises solutions, but these are not related to Oracle Cloud Platform."
"In Oracle Cloud Platform, one needs to make payments towards the subscription charges."
"I rate Oracle Cloud three to four out of ten on a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"Pricing for me, it's not very interesting. I think it's priced at a normal level."
"The price of SAP Business One on AWS is reasonable for what we use it for."
"The price of SAP Business One on AWS could be lower, it is expensive."
"The price of the limited version is about 70,000 Pesos ($2,900 USD), and the professional version is about double at 140,000 Pesos ($5,800 USD)."
"Though I cannot specifically state whether SAP Business One on AWS is a cheap or expensive product, I can surely say that it is a manageable tool from a cost perspective."
"On average, the licensing costs can be around 50,000 USD. Pricing of the product has certain variables, including the number of licenses and the implementation costs."
"The product's license is expensive. It could be cheaper."
"We have an annual cost for licensing and storage in AWS."
