Smart reporting has transformed financial oversight and supports informed business decisions
I have been working on the technical side of Oracle E-Business Suite, where we provide data to our clients according to their needs, such as in forms and visual BI, in reports, and other formats. People use Oracle E-Business Suite to grow their business and to analyze real profit and losses they see after implementing this system. It is a smart solution that depends on the team implementing it and who provides the reports and all data or BI reports to key persons to show how the direction of their company is going. It also provides predictions for them. A steering committee can take many decisions from their organization's data displayed daily, monthly, or yearly. The system helps people boost their business by identifying existing loopholes and determining what more can be done to overcome problems or disasters. The advanced reporting tools in Oracle E-Business Suite are very smart. I only need to have the company's data and input it into the tools they have provided, including BI. They provide business solutions and reporting analytics, and there are many complex reports as well. The requirement varies by client; for instance, if they seek reports related to SCM or iProcurement, we provide solutions to the market in terms of reporting for their stock. The reports indicate if stock is short, over, or provide predictions. Oracle E-Business Suite is keeping up with the market and now introducing AI database capabilities. It offers a comprehensive solution for businesses, whether joint or small retailers, provided it is properly implemented and guided.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Online patching, which lets administrators apply patches on the fly and with minimum downtime to make it active."
"The most valuable features of Oracle EBS are its ease of use, integration capabilities, and the General Ledger reporting, including the FSG reporting."
"Basically, the most valuable feature is the suite; basically, your integration between APAR, PO, fixed assets."
"It's a very comprehensive solution that enables us to manage customers, customer service, finances, projects, HR, and other business operations."
"Removed paper/spreadsheet time-cards and replaced the paper process with an electronic online process for annual benefits enrollment, view pay slip online, view W-2 online, etc., and we are able to submit government reports electronically."
"Oracle EBS is scalable, the flexibility is there to setup an organization with multiple locations."
"Oracle E-Business Suite is flexible, and its rich functionality can work in any client environment or business."
"Helped make us compliant and provides a transparent view of our financial system."
"The most valuable feature of Sage Business Cloud Enterprise Management is the business intelligence module. Additionally, report consolidation, cloud access, and analysis are useful."
"The interface is rich in features, allowing efficient management of business operations."
"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."
"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 accounting part and the procurement part are most valuable. It is a very good system with workflows and notifications."
 

Cons

"Organizational restructuring is a horrible process and very difficult in EBS."
"Oracle implementations are complex and require that the customer understands, and reviews their business processes."
"Oracle E-Business Suite should be more detailed and user-friendly. I should be able to customize the screen or application without needing technical support."
"The way things are going, Oracle is not putting much effort into their master data management. They need to look into machine data and then the integrated data domain."
"The UI interface is not great."
"We have dealt with customer service, and it was awful. For a system this size, it felt like we were merely buying software from them."
"The biggest area for improvement would be in the area of user adoption. After we did our first upgrade and went through the whole process, our users hated Oracle."
"We have some glitches. We have some application server memory issues that generate huge Java dump files."
"It is not suitable for corporate or manufacturing companies. For example, it's challenging to use it for a manufacturing company."
"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."
"The solution does not have a solid, out-of-the-box API architecture that is supported."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing is on a yearly basis. There is an initial cost, and the standard fee is 22% per year."
"Fees for support and licensing should be reduced."
"The price of the solution is extremely high."
"E-Business Suite's pricing could be lower."
"Oracle generally gives a lot of discounts."
"The price would be better if it were lower."
"Oracle E-Business Suite is heavy subscriptions based and the solution's upgrades, under the technology licensing, are quite costly. Additionally, support is an extra cost. The price of the solution could be reduced."
"At our various customers, the software tends to pay for itself in less than two years."
"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."
"The cost is not expensive."
"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."
"The solution delivers the same capabilities of SAP or Oracle at about 30% to 40% of the cost."
