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.

Can accomplish more with this tool than with a website or shared drive, yet reporting is weak
A large percentage of our employee base is remote at client locations. A web-based VMS allows anyone to access our catalog, and to work on their professional development, 24/7, regardless of location. I am a single system admin for over 600 users. I can accomplish much more with this tool than with a website or shared drive that doesn't have reporting, assignment, and other capabilities.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution has strong financial models and a strong database."
"I like Oracle ERP for streamlining the entire process from PRTL and invoice payments."
"The most valuable features of the Oracle E-Business Suite are best practices, built-in processes, and easy configuration, with plenty of system functionality and customization."
"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."
"The automation of retail and dealer order management has helped us a lot."
"It can easily be developed into an application."
"It saves on cost, time, people, and human resources."
"You can group them into the BIs, which is business intelligence. You get your own key performance indicators and build your own reports or you could have your own screens, and it changes in real time."
"SilkRoad support has been very responsible and helpful."
 

Cons

"To me, it seems overly complicated and the interactions between the modules are unclear to me."
"Pricing is the biggest disadvantage of Oracle."
"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."
"These are the pain points with Oracle. The license is normalized or broken down to such a level that it becomes a pain."
"We seem to be constantly applying patches and updates to fix bugs. Oracle should really improve upon this issue, especially since it happens so frequently."
"The UI interface is not great."
"We need to struggle in terms of getting the right support."
"Technical support is mediocre. It used to be a lot better."
"The ability to view and report on, then manage data is not very robust."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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."
"I would rate the pricing a nine out of ten, with ten being very expensive."
"Oracle's licenses are not straightforward."
"Oracle E-Business Suite is cheaper than SAP. It is expensive."
"The price of the solution is extremely high."
"Oracle has different licensing models available. For example, concurrent user license metric and power unit licensing metric. It is different from product to product, but for the application itself, the license is by the number of users."
"The pricing of the solution is at about $700-$750 per year."
