Find out what your peers are saying about SAP, Microsoft, Oracle and others in ERP."Everyone in the company is quite used to the Oracle functionality."
"The most valuable features are straight-through processing because we need to make sure that we have a good end-to-end process."
"There is essentially one solution for every industry within Oracle — you won't require a third-party solution."
"Oracle EBS provides the customer with faster financial closing because of its accurate calculations."
"The technical ability to run runtime APIs is great."
"The most valuable features of the Oracle E-Business Suite are best practices, built-in processes, and easy configuration. Plenty of system functionality and customization."
"The most valuable feature is the integration between accounts receivable, accounts payable, general ledger, and budgeting."
"The system is reliable and the backbone of financial and other core systems in many organizations worldwide."
"I believe Penta costs less than SAP"
"S4HANA is a completely integrated solution. It's an end-to-end ERP system with strong manufacturing and financial integration, which is not common among ERPs. And it's a solution that's driven by industry best practices."
"SAP S4HANA provides a solution towards a green industry. They keep making a different version of the solution to meet the needs of different industries, such as automotive and utilities."
"I have found SAP S4HANA to be scalable."
"The performance of the solution is excellent."
"It's reliable and the performance is good."
"We have access to all types of reports in a single solution."
"I can verify and provide the overall financial aid report and also the management report."
"S4HANA is relatively stable."
"I would say the integration needs improvement. Oracle needs to work on the integration layer to make the solution much more robust and modern."
"There are some business-specific processes still not implemented."
"From the business processes, there are areas where you could streamline new processes."
"Movement of CIP Inventory cannot be monitored in Inventory module when we are using the CIP Account or movement of CIP Inventory in Asset module, which is not flexible like Inventory module."
"Technical support is focused on-cloud versus on-premise customers."
"The system alerts could be improved."
"The users feel that the product is not user-friendly."
"The operations could be better, specifically for manufacturing processes."
"However, the production guys tell me that Penta is not suitable for mass production. If we build a hundred cars per day or more, then we'll have problems. At the same time, I can't say whether the issue is Penta or our process. In other words, maybe we have too many manual projects in it."
"I have found the solution to be stable but it could improve."
"The integration could be made a little simpler in terms of design and implementation."
"The solution is complex technically because both an old and a new path exist."
"Every year, when a new version is released, it comes with a very thick booklet of 300 or 400 pages and it is a little difficult to comprehend."
"The two things that need to be improved are price and customization."
"The solution could be more user-friendly for regular users and developers."
"The theory-side of the solution needs to be improved."
"If I can highlight one point that could be improved, when we talk about other ERPs, like Oracle, nowadays these ERPs provide free integration with other ERPs. For example, there is an API for banks integrated into every tool and every product form requires that bank integration in order to give real time data into the ERP. But SAP is charging a lot for that particular bank integration scenario and I think it should be free because other ERPs are providing this feature built in to the ERP. People always ask us about the integration and how much it will cost to go with that solution, so people are thinking about this."
