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

"Oracle E-Business Suite has contributed to cost reduction in specific areas for customers who transition from using multiple legacy systems in silos, helping reduce costs, decrease employee working time, and minimize duplicate jobs."
"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 most valuable features of Oracle E-Business Suite are all the 15 to 20 modules. We use them on a day-to-day basis."
"As the brand name says, Enterprise Resource Planning, and that's all, it offers integration for all business areas in one database."
"It's a very comprehensive solution that enables us to manage customers, customer service, finances, projects, HR, and other business operations."
"Order to cash and procure to pay process: They are valuable features because of their integration and flexibility."
"The primary use case for this solution is for Governmental Fiscal Management Information Systems (GFMIS), and it is a complete solution to manage the whole country Financial System."
"Oracle E-Business Suite is a stable product."
"The product provides consistent updates and upgrades."
"The technical support is very good."
"The warehouse module is imperative in keeping our records up-to-date because we have multiple locations."
"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."
"For me, it is a ten because I did not have any problems or issues."
 

Cons

"I wish they would improve on it. For a functional user like me, technical support has been tough."
"There are some cycles in HR that are not straightforward."
"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."
"Additional improvements could include better healthcare management functionalities, such as specialized modules for OPD and IPD for patients."
"The license is very expensive and I think that it needs to be cheaper to get a wider range of users or customers."
"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."
"Upgrading is a nightmare. I mean, I shouldn’t describe it as a nightmare, but I get nervous whenever they upgrade."
"The integration features of the tool on on-premises weren't that great, making it an area where improvements are required."
"We're definitely looking at a new system because everything in this product needs improving."
"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."
"While the software may not be very expensive, it lacks many advanced features found in other software."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price would be better if it were lower."
"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."
"Licensing is on a yearly basis. There is an initial cost, and the standard fee is 22% per year."
"It's quite expensive, even though they gave us a discount."
"Oracle scales the pricing, but E-Business Suite is still very expensive for small to mid-sized businesses."
"In my opinion, the prices for Oracle ERP are reasonable, especially considering the various discounts that are often available."
"Considering the market at the moment, Oracle needs to adjust the pricing of this solution."
"I would rate the pricing a nine out of ten, with ten being very expensive."
"The pricing is reasonable."
