Ram-Mohan - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Software Engineer at Align Technology
Pre-built adapters simplify CI/CD processes but monitoring improvements are needed
If Bamboo can provide a dashboard with tool health, such as whether the master or instance has the required space, it would be beneficial. Sometimes, when I trigger a build, it ends with no space on the agent machine where the agents are installed. If Bamboo can create an internal monitoring mechanism and display the tool's health status on the landing page or homepage, it would help end users and DevOps Engineers like me.
Md. Mazharul Islam - PeerSpot reviewer
Incharge Corporate Accounts & ERP System at General Pharmaceuticals Limited.
Has connected financial data across departments and improved future cash flow planning
I would like to improve the integration with other solutions, as I need everything integrated, like the HR module, purchase module, SCM, production, and engineering. Each and every module should be connected to the finance module, and I think Oracle provides the right solution. Also, SAP, IFS, or Microsoft Dynamics 365 offer some solutions, but I am not as happy with them as I am with Oracle. I believe that Oracle E-Business Suite could improve by transitioning from Java-based scripts in our system to a web-based environment. While Oracle already has JD Edwards available in web-based format, I think it needs to be smoother for optimization and presentation in the future. In comparison, IFS is fully web-based, and all applications are sufficiently good and user-friendly. We are developing and trying to improve to a web-based setup, but it is currently too costly.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We can easily store all the information about an employee in one place and it is easy to change and update it."
"The HR metrics that this solution provides has been most useful. We also really like the fact that employees have the ability to be self sufficient and manage their own information."
"I like the fact that the annual days are calculated automatically and that if annual leave is taken in the future, those days are put on hold. You know at every point how many days of annual leave are you left with and how many are on hold."
"This is a scalable solution. We have not experienced any issues."
"The solution's technical support is super responsive and helpful. I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"I really value the onboarding and offboarding checklists; this once was a painful paper process that relied on memory or making many calendar reminders for each new starter, and now it’s all automated and automatically assigned to the right people."
"It's very user-friendly and easy to train someone new. It was easy to implement and get someone onboarded on the system."
"The product is user-friendly."
"We have saved millions of dollars in inventory."
"Oracle has a low risk in implementation against all other products."
"The system is reliable and the backbone of financial and other core systems in many organizations worldwide."
"I love SLA because it gives me flexibility to do things that I need without involving development, for example, adding descriptions that I need for my Latin American business with just a couple of clicks without any development involvement."
"It's an all-in-one solution for corporate companies."
"The solution's very scalable, being used by organizations from very small businesses to multi-billion dollar organizations."
"It's a very comprehensive solution that enables us to manage customers, customer service, finances, projects, HR, and other business operations."
"Oracle E-Business Suite improves forecast accuracy, reduces costs, and increases manufacturing capacity."
 

Cons

"We recommend to have your own payroll integration as per GCC norms."
"It would be useful to have the possibility to assign a task to the different users within the software."
"The UI needs improvement because it needs to be more user-friendly."
"There can be stability issues. It is not a good system for more than 100 employees."
"I would like to see some improvements with custom reports and Signature templates."
"If you are dealing with two or more businesses under one company name, it is not possible to transfer employees between companies if they have a separate bamboo set up."
"However, if we compare the accrual balance days from Bamboo versus real days, sometimes we have to reconcile it by manual adjustment."
"We cannot add more questions to the assessments if we want to."
"In Oracle E-Business Suite, there should be a proper document flow for each transaction."
"I'm not impressed with the out-of-the-box analytics. It's really the bare minimum."
"It's very dependent on integration with other products,."
"I think that is a weakness that E-Business is really more like a module that connects things than a complete solution."
"Oracle tends to be slower when it comes to bringing flashy functionalities than other, smaller entities can deliver."
"I would like to see more integration with other systems."
"We are on a slightly older version as we don't apply as many patches as Oracle recommends because we feel it's not stable. So we've definitely had some stability issues that have prevented us from moving forward for the product."
"The integration features of the tool on on-premises weren't that great, making it an area where improvements are required."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Price-wise, the solution is in the middle compared to other tools offering similar functionalities."
"We pay a monthly subscription to use the solution. The subscript model is based on how many employees we have active."
"I rate the tool's pricing an eight out of ten."
"It was definitely cheaper than some of the larger systems."
"I would rate the pricing a nine out of ten, with ten being very expensive."
"Oracle prices are better in Vietnam and more flexible. If we need to customize something in Oracle, it's very flexible and easy to customize."
"Fees for support and licensing should be reduced."
"Both the current projects and future projects should be defined well. Licensing should be done according to current and near future plans."
"At the time of purchasing the license the price was reasonable."
"It costs too much."
"The solution is quite expensive."
"We pay about $300 a year in order to license the solution."
