Md. Mazharul Islam - PeerSpot reviewer
Incharge Corporate Accounts & ERP System at General Pharmaceuticals Limited.
Has connected financial data across departments and improved future cash flow planning
I would like to improve the integration with other solutions, as I need everything integrated, like the HR module, purchase module, SCM, production, and engineering. Each and every module should be connected to the finance module, and I think Oracle provides the right solution. Also, SAP, IFS, or Microsoft Dynamics 365 offer some solutions, but I am not as happy with them as I am with Oracle. I believe that Oracle E-Business Suite could improve by transitioning from Java-based scripts in our system to a web-based environment. While Oracle already has JD Edwards available in web-based format, I think it needs to be smoother for optimization and presentation in the future. In comparison, IFS is fully web-based, and all applications are sufficiently good and user-friendly. We are developing and trying to improve to a web-based setup, but it is currently too costly.

Makes processes including calculating costs, accessing inventory information quickly, validating offers, and extracting data easier
I use Sage Business Cloud Enterprise Management to digitize our processes. I put our work and the opportunities on the platform, validate financial offers, and manage fees from transport and financial management.  I also use the system for record-keeping of client information and work…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"When correctly configured, this is a very stable solution. We have customers running their process automation manufacturing based off of this solution."
"It was easy to set up the product."
"Shipment planning using Oracle Transportation Management has helped for: Accurate freight estimation Faster and accurate route planning Tracking shipments to ensure on time delivery Improving the customer experience."
"The biggest return on investment is the improvements of productivity."
"The kind of features they have provided is very helpful."
"We have saved millions of dollars in inventory."
"The solution is very stable."
"Oracle provides pretty good data plans for E-Business Suite so that you can customize using Java if you want."
"Sage Business Cloud Enterprise Management has helped by making processes such as calculating costs, accessing inventory information quickly, validating offers, and extracting data easier."
"The interface is rich in features, allowing efficient management of business operations."
"The accounting part and the procurement part are most valuable. It is a very good system with workflows and notifications."
"The solution is parameterized so it naturally has the ability to parameterize, configure, and adapt to various organizational procedures."
"The initial setup is not complex. The deployment process was relatively straightforward."
"The most valuable feature of Sage Business Cloud Enterprise Management is the business intelligence module. Additionally, report consolidation, cloud access, and analysis are useful."
 

Cons

"It needs a better user interface; the forms and HTML split would be better if they were consistent."
"Although all the modules are integrated with each other into E-Business Suite, sometimes when you apply one patch for Accounts Receivable, for example, it can damage Accounts Payable."
"At the moment, we have an old version and it is an area of the product with room for improvement."
"Not user friendly."
"The initial upgrade, as I’ve mentioned, took away some of our valuable reports that were in the original Oracle EBS. That was really annoying."
"The system has bugs, is not user friendly, and requires too much customization."
"We have project contracts for government customers, and that has been a little bit tougher to implement, because I don't think Oracle has a lot of clients on that."
"Technical support is not the best and we have to keep pushing. There have been a lot of times when we keep calling to get prompt support or escalations to a manager in order to get better support."
"Its implementation process is kind of complicated. If the person implementing it doesn't know what he is doing, the system can have many issues. Sage X3 is just an accounting system. As compared to Oracle E-Business Suite, it does not cover a lot of functionality. It doesn't have the payroll, lease management, and HR modules. Oracle E-Business Suite is better than Sage X3."
"Sage Business Cloud Enterprise Management could improve the search functionality. For example, if I was to search for a transaction from last year it would be difficult to accomplish. I have to scroll through to find what I am looking for. The approach should be more similar to Quickbooks where when you search for something it takes you directly to the searched item."
"Integration with other tools like BOM or Cisco BlueQ could be improved."
"It is not suitable for corporate or manufacturing companies. For example, it's challenging to use it for a manufacturing company."
"The solution does not have a solid, out-of-the-box API architecture that is supported."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price would be better if it were lower."
"It's quite expensive, even though they gave us a discount."
"Oracle's pricing is on the higher end."
"The pricing of the solution is at about $700-$750 per year."
"I would rate the pricing a nine out of ten, with ten being very expensive."
"Compared to other vendors like SAP or Microsoft, the prices for Oracle are reasonable, but they could always be lower."
"It costs too much."
"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."
"The cost is not expensive."
"The solution delivers the same capabilities of SAP or Oracle at about 30% to 40% of the cost."
"The price of this solution is expensive. However, it depends on the number of branches used. The price can be upwards of $40,000 annually."
"It is very cheap. There are no additional charges, but the problem is that you have to acquire an additional supporting system such as a budgeting system. You will have to implement the integration and maintain two systems. So, you need to pay for the license of that budgeting system and this one. You also need to pay the license for the payroll and integration. There are all these integrations that you have to pay for."
