"The product seems to be quite stable."
"The ability to link documents to accounts, partners and events via the Golden/Yellow Arrow feature is very useful."
"The SAP Business One is simple and it provides us the control we need."
"It offers users a rather simple interface."
"It's user-friendly and comes with comprehensive manuals. So, it is easy to learn to use SAP Business One"
"I have been happy with the intern purchases, and finance, such as banking."
"All parts for inventory control, project budget, accounting, and business information are valuable. It is very friendly to obtain information. It is also very easy to make the changes that we need. We have a developer with us, and he can make the required changes or rules."
"SAP Business One is very stable, and I would rate its performance as ten out of ten."
"However, the production guys tell me that Penta is not suitable for mass production. If we build a hundred cars per day or more, then we'll have problems. At the same time, I can't say whether the issue is Penta or our process. In other words, maybe we have too many manual projects in it."
"The solution could improve by having some added authentication, such as SAP CC or SAP S4HANA."
"It could have RPA automation and RPA elements. There could also be add-ons for a Document Management System and Warehouse Management System."
"The analytics data capabilities could improve which will provide businesses with much more insight into how their companies are performing."
"You get support through the vendor, not SAP directly. If your vendor is good, you get good support. If it is not a good vendor, the support is very bad."
"The solution could improve by providing HR payroll, quality control, and maintenance. These are the missing features which we have to use add-ons solutions to provide the functionality."
"The reading and retrieving of data are slow in the system."
"The extension of dashboards into mobiles is something which SAP Business One has to improve on."
"Our business has grown beyond the capabilities of Business One. We need a bigger ERP solution, and therefore we are moving away."
