MAMUKA KVANTALIANI - PeerSpot reviewer
Pronto Xi Systems Consultant at GUNNEBO AB
Has supported business operations through flexible customization and reliable reporting features
I find Pronto Xi quite robust, fast, and flexible in its use because we can set up any environment and customize it. It covers a wide range of functions, starting from basic finances such as accounts receivable, payable, down to service projects, manufacturing, plant maintenance, and all customer relationships, providing extensive functionality. We utilize Pronto Xi's customizable dashboards in our organization, and it is integrated with the Cognos BI system. These dashboards help us in gaining actionable insights and making informed decisions because they serve visualization purposes for higher-level reporting for top management and senior management. We use them for visualizations for senior management's everyday, weekly, or monthly catch-up with business performance. The advanced reporting capabilities of Pronto Xi improve decision-making because the users of the information understand where the business stands, how it performs, where the pitfalls are, and which branches of businesses are underperforming or doing well. As long as the basic underlying data is correct, they're excellent to use. Pronto Xi's strong emphasis on security and compliance is quite important for my organization because it is strict with multi-layered access and complex password systems. These aspects influence my trust in the platform because we haven't had any problems with Pronto Xi. While there were issues with other systems, Pronto Xi has been reliable, and I would rate my trust level at nine out of ten. The scalability of Pronto Xi is good as my business grows, both in terms of functionality and third-party applications integration.

Long-term adaptation and evolution meets changing technology trends
SAP ERP is not really real-time. We use the HANA database which is supposed to be memory data in memory, but we are still not very happy. It is supposed to be real-time and come very quickly, but in reality, it still takes time to run. That is why we use BW of SAP, Business Objects, and now we have moved to the Analytic Cloud where we start using predictive AI. SAP recently implemented Databricks, and they started investing significantly in the analytic environment. SAP ERP has been left behind as they moved to S/4HANA with the HANA database. They restructured the whole table structure of SAP ERP, introduced simple finance, simple logistics, and moved HR to SuccessFactors. They have the BTP layer where they manage everything from integration to master data management. The challenge with SAP is that they move very fast to different products and buy different products. It requires significant investment and many skills to catch up because all of these have different sets of technology. The fundamental has changed differently. It is not monolithic anymore but different products under one name, SAP. You have to buy it model by model for additional models. Products such as SuccessFactors, Ariba for procure to pay, Concur for travel, and Facility Management use totally different technology. They try to integrate with each other, but it remains a challenge for SAP to make them have the same management, technology, and operational approach.

Pros

"Pronto Xi is very user-friendly, and anyone can operate it without difficulty, unlike SAP or AS/400."
"I find Pronto Xi quite robust, fast, and flexible in its use because we can set up any environment and customize it, and it covers a wide range of functions, starting from basic finances such as accounts receivable, payable, down to service projects, manufacturing, plant maintenance, and all customer relationships, providing extensive functionality."
"The most valuable feature of SAP ERP is the integration. It can be seamlessly integrated across the board."
"It is an integrated application, and it has been working really well. Earlier, there were different companies for different applications for manufacturing, finance controlling, logistics, and quality. It probably was the first fully integrated application. Whenever somebody is entering any data, for example, invoice data or ordering data, everyone with a right to see this data can see it in the system."
"SAP ERP's interface is pretty easy nowadays, as it has evolved over time and has been made as user-friendly as a person would like it."
"There are many interfaces, so you really can build satellites around it like with other SAP stuff or even third-party stuff."
"It is the best solution in the class of ERP products."
"I like that SAP ERP is very robust and stable."
"It meets our requirements for what we need it to do in the manufacturing industry."
"The Material Management and Sales and Distribution modules are great. The Financial Accounting module is also great."
 

Cons

"There are a lot of things to be developed in Pronto Xi. I believe we need spool files, better control of inventory levels, and improved distribution capabilities."
"The areas of Pronto Xi that could be improved include its appearance, which is quite outdated, as it does not use modern visualization means of its functionality, and it appears to be from the late 90s."
"SAP ERP could improve by having better integration with other platforms."
"There should be better support provided to be able to migrate to S/4HANA easier."
"SAP is more expensive than some of its competitors."
"Sometimes the cost is not reasonable, such as in the case of budgeting."
"The solution is quite expensive. They need to work on the pricing to make it more reasonable."
"The UI could use improvement."
"The service could be more user-friendly in the area of transition codes."
"The solution is not ready for the current e-commerce environment."
