SAP Business One Reviews

We are very satisfied with SAP Business One application. It is deployed on-premises. We reviewed the cost of cloud, and it is very expensive. We have about 200 users on-premises and plan to remain on-premises.

The sales and wholesale distribution are great.

We don't have the functionality of the supply chain and mobile applications and use third-party applications for this. We sell our products in little stores, and we need a phone to take the requirements of our customers, and the information goes to SAP. We have 15 warehouses to track picking, packing and all the processes in sales and the supply chain. So it is also essential to have good business intelligence.

Our problem is that we have five or six companies using SAP Business One, and when we need to have a disaster recovery plan, we need to execute a full backup of all of our companies. We need to have a backup for only one company, which is impossible.

Our technical support is from our partner in Guatemala City, and we don't need to scale the problem to SAP. Our partner has great support, and we are very satisfied with their service.

I rate the solution a nine out of ten. We are concerned with the Web Client because it doesn't have the old features we had on a desktop. In addition, we need more flexibility in the authorization process for purchasing because we don't have all the information we need to approve. We need to navigate different areas for information, and we only need one screen with all the information for the approved process.

Both of our customers are retailers - one in the construction sector and other with automotive parts. We have a great number of items and clients in both enterprises. 

We can use the solution to guarantee the enterprise, the technology platform. We've been working with COBOL and SQL for more than 20 years, and we have to migrate to a platform with international knowledge or experience.

We have experience in ERP development and also the technological projection for the short and long term. That's why we chose to work with SAP Business One.

The parametrization and the integration of all the models is great. All the models are integrated well. 

The UX experience is also very good.

It's very powerful and very complete.

The setup is pretty straightforward. 

It's a scalable product.

It is quite stable. 

The solution offers excellent online documentation.

It seems that SAP is always giving you much more tips and upgrades than you are expecting.

Business One has a lot of data in each model, and it should be quite important to make the UX or interface for end users more simple. We can do it with other software and with some user interface that comes with SAP, however, that is perhaps the one meaningful issue to solve. 

When you want to work with data master items, there is no good manner to classify or to group the items. We have to do it with user information. They really need better classification of items. We have a lot of items, and SAP Business One comes only with one parameter to group the items and 64 properties. However, that is not what the system needs at all.

There's not much that needs fixing. It's been a very good experience through the years.

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. 

I've used the solution for ten years. I started using it in 2012.

It's stable and reliable. The performance is good. There are no bugs or glitches. 

The solution scales well. 

I am working with 200 end users now, and it seems that the two people we have for support of the ERP is good. 

We have the contact and support of the partner that sold us the SAP application. Therefore, support comes through a third party.

From the vendor, support is very good. In some areas, we must view and understand the topics through information on the web, not directly through them. 

SAP doesn't give us support directly. The support of SAP is with partner intermediation. However, you must study and learn from the web every time. That's key for understanding and giving good support for the software.

We had to change partners to get a better support system in place and now they are good. The documentation, however, is stellar, and I would rate what's online a ten out of ten. 

Neutral

After you know stuff about the software, it's easy. 

YOu only need two or three people to put up the solution. They are specialists. 

I'm a consultant and a user. We consider ourselves a partner. 

It's a very good product. Whoever wants to buy this product, needs to understand how SAP works through a partner or directly. The enterprise must have a technical counterpart with a lot of experience, real experience since the software doesn't work alone. It's very good software, however, if you depend exclusively on the partner, that doesn't work very well.

I'd rate the solution ten out of ten.

We use the solution for daily data transactions and market data.

The automation on offer is very good.

The solution is stable.

The pricing isn't too bad.

I'd like to see the solution become more user-friendly.

It could use more integration capabilities. 

The initial setup can be a bit difficult. 

It scales only minimally.

I've used the solution for about ten years. I've used it for a while at this point. 

The solution is stable and reliable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. 

The solution only scales a little. 

We have about 30 users on the solution currently.

At this point, we do not have plans to increase usage.

The initial setup is a bit complex. It is not extremely straightforward. It took us about a day or two to deploy the solution. 

I'm not that technical and therefore don't have many details about the general setup.

We had some outside assistance to help us with the initial setup. 

It is my understanding that we pay for a perpetual license. You just pay for it once and then handle maintenance. It is not too expensive.

We have been looking into other options as well. 

I am using an older version. It may be version four or six. 

I'd rate the solution seven out of ten. 

We are a consultancy with more than 500 customers worldwide in Pakistan, the UK, the United States, and the Middle East. Our customers are in various industries, including pharmaceuticals and manufacturing. 

The most valuable feature of Business One depends on the industry. Generally speaking, Business One works best in automotive industry use cases.  

Business One's production module has room for improvement. 

We have used SAP Business One for 17 years.

I rate SAP Business One eight out of 10 for stability. 

I rate SAP Business One 10 out of 10 for scalability. 

I've contacted SAP support many times, and they've been very helpful. 

The complexity of the deployment and the time needed depends on the project's scope. You can complete the deployment in two weeks to a month if you are doing a standard implementation without much customization. We handle the implementation for the customer, and we have teams in various cities who specialize in different industries. 

I rate SAP Business One eight out of 10. I recommend it. 

Our organization has been using SAP Business One as an ERP software for overall company management, which includes production, sales, inventory management, and purchase management.

We have continued to use SAP Business ONE due to its add-ons and customization options, but there are still some areas that could use improvement. Otherwise, there are issues with inventory management and quality management, as well as the software not providing detailed information for production.

We managed to continue using SAP Business One with the help of add-ons.

I have been using SAP Business One for the past eleven years. The current version we are using is 9.2.

The solution is scalable. I would rate it a seven out of ten.

I would give technical support a six out of ten. There is room for improvement, particularly in areas such as quality management, production operations, and store inventory management. We faced some constraints but managed to overcome them by using add-ons.

Neutral

We deployed the solution on the premises, on our own servers. The whole process took almost a year.

I would rate the cost of licensing SAP Business One a six out of ten, with one being low-priced and ten being very expensive.

Overall, I would rate it an eight out of ten.

We have it for ERP use. It's mainly for finance use. 

It's very beneficial because everybody is using the same software and the same coding, which makes it very easy to consolidate.

This is an all-in-one ERP solution for small businesses. Everything is linked. Once you have this, you have all the features available in SAP. You have PR, inventory items, journal entry, and project management features.

HR and project management areas could be better. 

I would love to have more reporting capabilities. It should have an embedded BI engine. Currently, I have to maintain an additional system for BI. 

I have been using this solution for 10 years.

It's stable. We didn't have any problems.

It's scalable. You need one database for one legal entity. Those databases are in the cloud. They are out there on the same server, but you need to manage them separately. It's not a unified database. There is a separate database for each legal entity, which is the main difference between this SAP and the big SAP.

We have around 50 users who are using this solution. Its users are finance people, and then we have one internal developer who does the maintenance and upgrades and provides support.

We don't usually need support, and if we need it, usually we have local partners for support. It's something that fits with the system. It's stable and once in a year or two, we do an upgrade if the new features are justified. 

We didn't use any other solution previously.

I wasn't there during the setup, but you need to know the system in order to set it up. If you know, it's not a complicated setup. If your data is ready, the setup can be done in two weeks.

It depends on what your needs are. It's very good for small businesses, and if the main challenge is the setup, then you would need a professional to do that. You need to know the system. It's not Excel that you can just sit down and play. It requires setup, migration, and coding. You need to know what you are doing, but it's not difficult if you know what you are doing.

I would rate it an eight out of ten because of the reporting or BI engine. It should have an embedded BI engine.

I primarily use SAP Business One for recording daily documents.

Areas for improvement are the operating mechanisms, authorization of the production process, and sales cycle automation.

I've been using SAP Business One for three years.

SAP Business One is very stable, and I would rate its performance as ten out of ten.

SAP Business One's scalability is perfect.

The initial setup was very straightforward, and implementation took less than six months.

We hired a consultant.

If SAP Business One is managed efficiently, it can definitely give you a good return on your investment. I would rate our ROI as five out of five.

SAP Business One is moderately priced. If any kind of development is required, it will incur an additional cost.

I would recommend SAP Business One to anybody looking for a good ERP and would rate it nine out of ten.

SAP Business One has been used in my organization to make life easier for us accountants to implement our financial statements, create our AR invoices, and our general ledgers.

SAP Business One has improved the way we work because we used to have to enter manually, such as filling in invoices. Using SAP Business One has made our accountant's work a lot easier. All the accountants worldwide use the SAP software because they can create financial statements with a click of a button. It's amazing.

The most valuable features of SAP Business One are that it has plenty of features and an easy general ledger entry. Additionally, we have an internal team that supports the solution and they provide is good. The solution is easy for us to support.

SAP Business One could improve by automatically inputting exchange rates in the software. We currently have to enter them manually to find the appropriate exchange rates from a website. If it could be done with one click it would be helpful and more straightforward.

We have one person in our IT department that does the maintenance and support of this solution.

I have been using SAP Business One for approximately eight years.

We have SAP Business One on a hybrid server which is very stable and it doesn't lag. We do not have issues with the login, it is fast.

I have not used another solution previously.

The initial setup of SAP Business One was straightforward. The
