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.

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

"Financial and asset management features are valuable."
"It's a very comprehensive solution that enables us to manage customers, customer service, finances, projects, HR, and other business operations."
"Technical support from Oracle has always been great; we have never faced any issues when it comes to anything related to technical support from Oracle, and there have been times when they went the extra mile to support us."
"For large organizations like ours, its ability to handle our data volume with stability is, for us, a perfect match."
"Oracle E-Business Suite is easy to use, and we have enough resources out in the market."
"It can easily be developed into an application."
"Really scalable business application suite with good technical support and straightforward patching."
"I especially like E-Business Suite's data management functionality - I would say it provides perfect data management inside the app."
"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 warehouse module is imperative in keeping our records up-to-date because we have multiple locations."
"The technical support is very good."
 

Cons

"Administration takes some effort. Administrating the technology stack is not so complex but application aware database administration and following the new methodologies like online patching can be a little complex and time consuming. Oracle should ease the administrators jobs and do some innovation on this administration area as well. Oracle Autonomous Database is Oracle's leading technology these days. Using a similar approach, application stack may become a little more self-managing."
"HRMS analyzers should be automatically updated to be the most recent because Oracle support always asks for the latest version of the analyzer output."
"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."
"Oracle licensing is very complex, and the pricing is too expensive."
"The stability is really 50/50 right now. It could be issues with certain pages or data, or it could be a training issue on our end."
"For smaller ERP solutions, Oracle EBS is a complex solution which has complex requirements."
"They need to make the interface a little more slick. It's form-based, so loading of the forms is pretty annoying."
"Oracle E-Business Suite's stability could be improved as they have a lot of bugs that need to be fixed."
"While the software may not be very expensive, it lacks many advanced features found in other software."
"We're definitely looking at a new system because everything in this product needs improving."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing of Oracle E-Business Suite is too high."
"Oracle scales the pricing, but E-Business Suite is still very expensive for small to mid-sized businesses."
"Oracle's pricing is on the higher end."
"This product is more expensive if you compare it to SAP."
"Licensing is on a yearly basis. There is an initial cost, and the standard fee is 22% per year."
"The licensing cost of Oracle E-Business Suite is quite competitive. It's quite flexible, so it can be adapted to the requirements of my company. For confidentiality purposes, I'm unable to disclose how much Oracle E-Business Suite costs, but I'm rating its cost as eight out of ten."
"We pay about $300 a year in order to license the solution."
"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."
