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

"The automation of retail and dealer order management has helped us a lot."
"The most valuable feature for us is integrity in the sense that the General Ledger module is directly connected with our payables, and our Human Resources is connected with payroll, so it's one unit from HR's perspective, which is very efficient."
"An integrated platform with an easy of integration to a third-party system."
"Great finance modules and customization."
"I would definitely recommend Oracle E-Business Suite to other people."
"It handles business application standard functionalities very, very well."
"The most valuable feature is the integration between accounts receivable, accounts payable, general ledger, and budgeting."
"To do this before on paper basis, it was very time consuming, and now they can use the gained time to properly manage their workforce."

"The product provides consistent updates and upgrades."
"The technical support is very good."
"For me, it is a ten because I did not have any problems or issues."
 

Cons

"I'd like to get BI integrated into the transactional system and not just the Data Mart. We've been having issues with making that happen."
"It's difficult for some customers to understand in the beginning. A user really has to understand the processes."
"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."
"In Oracle E-Business Suite, there should be a proper document flow for each transaction."
"There are some business-specific processes still not implemented. We need the IPC solution subcontractor management that is not available."
"We have some glitches. We have some application server memory issues that generate huge Java dump files."
"We wanted a fully-fledged solution that has got payroll, HR, finance et cetera, basically everything finance and administration we'd like to see sustainability management. This solution doesn't offer exactly what we need all in one package."
"It would be nice to have more web services. For example, it would be easier to integrate our applications with EBS."
"We're definitely looking at a new system because everything in this product needs improving."
"The vendor stopped supporting the solution on the Linux platform."
"Updating incorrect information takes a specific process to correctly back out the error to fix it."
"While the software may not be very expensive, it lacks many advanced features found in other software."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"We have an annual license to use the Oracle E-Business Suite and we have an enterprise license."
"Find a best Oracle partner and get a better discount."
"In my opinion, the prices for Oracle ERP are reasonable, especially considering the various discounts that are often available."
"Pricing for Oracle E-Business Suite is seven out of ten. You must pay extra for maintenance and technical support, apart from standard license fees."
"I have found the solution overall to be expensive. There are additional fees on top of the standard license."

"The pricing is reasonable."
