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.
Mahmoud Paridehpour - PeerSpot reviewer
VP of Ecommerce & Information Systems at Four Seasons General Merchandise
Offers extensive features for efficient operations in small to midsize businesses
The solution is very good. However, for very small companies, maybe a cloud service is better. Other software like QuickBooks may work well if you do not have many employees and require simple invoicing and inventory. This software, though, is a bit more advanced compared to QuickBooks, offering flexibility, multi-user capability, and options for application development. It connects directly to the database for reporting or external systems, which is beneficial for companies needing more advanced features. However, if I need a very complex system, Sage might not be suitable. Overall, I would rate this product an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Technical support is good, and they offer different types of support."
"Oracle E-Business Suite is a very awesome product; it has a lot of capabilities, and you can gain a lot of business knowledge through it."
"It makes financial operations easier to perform."
"EBS has lots of application families and lots of features. It is modular in deployment and flexible enough to let the customer increase the built-in capabilities and enable new applications when needed. These are very important things at hand in case there will be a need to expand the product capabilities and/or implement new projects."
"Everyone in the company is quite used to the Oracle functionality."
"We've run our business on it for 15 years now."
"This is an enormous product and it's our ERP system; it pretty much performs all of our accounting transactions and is the single source of truth for all our financial statements."
"We have had a good experience with this solution for 13 years."
"The product provides consistent updates and upgrades."
"For me, it is a ten because I did not have any problems or issues."
"Regarding the cost, it is cheap. I pay a one-time fee instead of a monthly license fee per user."
"The technical support is very good."
"The warehouse module is imperative in keeping our records up-to-date because we have multiple locations."
 

Cons

"The EBS Design to some extent is still monolithic."
"There are some enhancements in the process itself that is needed in the application. In the cloud version, they covered some of these areas and requirements but the on-premise version has to catch up."
"Current challenges with Oracle E-Business Suite include certain modules such as Property Manager, which has faced difficulties especially after IFRS 16 was introduced in 2021."
"We are developing and trying to improve to a web-based setup, but it is currently too costly."
"The document that supports the Oracle E-Business Suite regarding the installation and upgrading is long compared to other products and needs to be enhanced."
"One of the major issues is that the solution has a high price."
"I would say the integration needs improvement. Oracle needs to work on the integration layer to make the solution much more robust and modern."
"The deployment of the Oracle E-Business Suite was simple. I have done many deployments and I find it simple, but for others, it might not be easy."
"While the software may not be very expensive, it lacks many advanced features found in other software."
"Updating incorrect information takes a specific process to correctly back out the error to fix it."
"The vendor stopped supporting the solution on the Linux platform."
"We're definitely looking at a new system because everything in this product needs improving."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I have found the solution overall to be expensive. There are additional fees on top of the standard license."
"We pay about $300 a year in order to license the solution."
"Compared to other vendors like SAP or Microsoft, the prices for Oracle are reasonable, but they could always be lower."
"It's quite expensive, even though they gave us a discount."
"It costs too much."
"Oracle's pricing is lower than that of its competitors."
"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 pricing is reasonable."
