SAP ERP Reviews

SAP Controlling and Fund Management

SAP Controlling give the control of managerial cost in control for management especially accounting. It enables deep costing analysis, cost allocation model and drill down functionality. with Fund Management organization can embed budget control rules to control any budget commitment, consumption before its too late.

Its table and structure complexity is a love and hate situation. Although ABAP created SAP, it's costly to recruit and maintain ABAP.

I've used it for three years.

It's manageable.

No issues encountered.

Never encountered issues.

It's the best.

It's the best.

We've always been using SAP.

It was complex, as the company policy needs to evolves at the pace of system functionality and the design direction.

We used a vendor team who were 8/10.

It's around three years, and the ROI can be vague as we use only finance and accounting related module, along with MM. Basically, our ROI is derived from the amount of estimate savings we calculated, and the budget saved.

Look around at three or four vendors.

If transformation is what you're looking for, then SAP is your answer. Keep in mind that you need to change yours, and others, mind set. At the end of the day, it's for the organization's future sake.

The SAP ERP is on a single-layer reporting process, and we use SAP ERP for output storing, algorithm and reporting purposes.

It is helpful for reporting processes, and we have to figure out the times we store that data and if we need any additions. So we use it to automate our PR processes.

It has a high cost.

We have been using this solution for almost two years, and it is deployed on-premises.

It is a stable solution.

It is scalable. We have about 15 companies using SAP ERP.

The initial setup was straightforward.

I do not have details about the price.

I rate this solution a nine out of ten.

We implement it for customers, and we use the software internally for process management and inventory management.

SAP is already working on improvements by doing annual releases with enhancements.

I would like to see more integrations and built-in integrations with other environments and products. Sometimes, we have a product that needs something, and we would need to replace a feature or model in the system with other models outside.

In this case, we would like the system to be more flexible, more component-based. Then, we would be able to take one component and leave the others. We won't have to buy in bulk to benefit from the product. We can select features and pay for those.

Technical support could be better.

I've been working with this product for almost 7 years.

As for technical support, it depends on how SAP defines the level of the ticket. Sometimes, the ticket is very important to us, while from the perspective of SAP, its of low or medium priority. This makes things difficult for us.

When the ticket is of medium or low priority from the perspective of SAP, it takes more time to solve it.

So, when we have product limitations or something's not working, we would need to help the customers find a solution or workaround.

The initial setup is a little bit complex. In the beginning, it takes some time for the business consultants to prepare the environment and set up everything. Usually, if you give the consultants the appropriate time to do the setup correctly the first time, everything will go smoothly.

On a scale from one to ten, I would rate SAP ERP at eight.

I'm the company manager and we are customers of SAP. 

Control and governance are the best features of SAP. We have good support as well and there is a big ecosystem around SAP where we can get technical support. 

SAP is always costlier than other products so I'd like to see the pricing improved for preferred customers. Integration could also be improved. 

I've been using this solution for 10 years. 

This solution is stable.

The solution is scalable. There are four plants in my area and about 100 people using SAP. There are many, many more users worldwide. 

We are satisfied with the technical support. 

We used JD Edwards before SAP and as a corporate move, all the plants went over to SAP and our department also moved eventually. The company chose a good product. 

The initial setup is somewhat difficult but with the kind of support we have it's not a problem. The installation or implementation is a tough thing for SAP, there are multiple factors which have to be taken into consideration.

For larger companies, I think SAP is the best solution we have in ERP.

I would rate this solution an eight out of 10. 

We are using SAP ERP mostly for production and financials.

There should be better support provided to be able to migrate to S/4HANA easier.

I have been using SAP ERP for approximately three years.

The stability is SAP ERP is not good only because the version is old. They could work on improving the versions.

The scalability could be better, it is not simple to do.

We have approximately 300 users using this solution. We are not planning to increase usage.

We used Navision previously and then we moved to SAP ERP because of its larger scale and strategic direction from the management.

The initial setup of SAP ERP was complex and very rigid.

SAP ERP requires two people for maintenance and approximately 10 people for the implementation.

There is an annual subscription for the use of SAP ERP.

I would recommend others to use SAP S/4HANA because SAP ERP is out of date. It would be best to skip SAP ERP and go directly for SAP S/4HANA.

I rate SAP ERP a six out of ten.

We use SAP ERP for finance, manufacturing, and purchasing.

It integrates most of the areas from a financial point of view and helps the company track operations on a global level.

I like that SAP ERP is very robust and stable.

It could be more flexible, and the company should be able to adapt the system. Not the other way around. It's very rigid and difficult to change. Reporting could also be better.

We have been using SAP ERP in our company for 15 to 20 years.

SAP ERP is a stable solution.

It's very scalable. It's just a matter of cost. We have 100 to 150 users at the moment.

Technical support is available anywhere, and it's easy to find.

The initial setup is very complex.

SAP ERP is expensive.

I would tell potential users that the implementation could be very complex. It's key to have clarity about the company processes from the beginning before implementing SAP ERP. If you don't, the company processes will have to be adapted to the SAP standard way of working.

On a scale from one to ten, I would give SAP ERP a seven.

As a manager/team leader and developer with a strong technical background, I work with all aspects of the system in various industries and use cases.

SAP ECC consolidates five to seven back-office systems under one platform in our organization.

The power of ABAP Development Tools is the main valuable feature in the SAP ECC system. Every couple of years SAP upgrades ABAP technology significantly, which facilitates developers' work.

The user interface has room for improvement. SAP is working on it and the improvements are on the way.

I encountered issues due to human error. SAP support solved the problems. Technical support for customers has improved a lot. It includes live chat support so, in some cases, you can get answers to solve your problem immediately.

SAP ECC is not cheap but I consider it the best system for managing an organization's data and processes.

SAP ERP is the best product for managing all back-office processes in a large organization. All data is stored in a single system which includes one database.

We use two modules. Materials Management (MM) handles the procurement-to-payment process, from inventory through final invoice receipt and verification. Master Data Governance (MDG) centrally creates, changes, and distributes or consolidates master data across the complete enterprise system landscape.

It gives us full control over each change, to the level of the individual field in a master record, including certificates.

MDG provides a central location for governance of the creation/updating processes of master data. It allows you to change several fields in the same object. For example, we can change a field on the purchasing view and change another field on an accounting view to the same material at the same time.

The UI could use improvement.
