Integration and flexibility deliver outstanding business experiences with innovative platforms enhancements

Scale is a primary concern. If the product vision continues to serve small and mid-cap companies, they need to continue incorporating features into the out-of-the-box solution because small-caps typically lack budget for in-house IT organizations to customize and maintain systems. If they want to expand beyond mid-cap and enter the large-cap market, they need to consider balance and provide more customizability. This includes extending process flows through more APIs and building a more modular architecture with granular backend exposed via API. The process layer should allow clients to customize while invoking back-office APIs. The general perception positions Microsoft Dynamics GP in the middle of the market. Systems such as NetSuite and ServiceNow occupy the lower category, providing narrow use cases. Microsoft Dynamics GP offers more breadth and out-of-the-box capabilities at a slightly higher price point. At the top end, SAP, Oracle, and Salesforce offer extensive customizability at a premium price, suitable for large organizations with multiple transactions and customers. Microsoft Dynamics GP currently occupies a favorable position in the middle segment with limited competition.

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

"It is strong in integration."

"The system is easy to customize and has user-friendly access. "

"The solution offers integrations with other software as well. We have integration with Microsoft Office where we can do Word and Excel, etc."

"It is a tried and tested ERP system which if used correctly, is definitely a very good program for managing all aspects of a business from customer sales, and receivables management, to payable management and finance reporting. So, it's super critical for any mid-sized company."

"Snowflake's ability to handle large queries efficiently is very beneficial, unlike other databases which can take a significant amount of time for similar tasks."

"I haven't used it a lot, but the best thing is that the processes are very detailed."

"You can track everything from beginning to end quite easily."

"The most valuable feature is financial control. The accounting aspect allows us to manage our clients and payments."

More Microsoft Dynamics GP pros

"We've run our business on it for 15 years now."

"The most valuable features are the financial-related capabilities."

"Oracle E-Business Suite's most valuable feature is the information that it provides. For example, it's good to know the AR due date and the receipt of the products that you have sold. It is a good solution overall for enterprise management."

"Oracle E-Business Suite has contributed to cost reduction in specific areas for customers who transition from using multiple legacy systems in silos, helping reduce costs, decrease employee working time, and minimize duplicate jobs."

"If you have a small shop, Oracle can accommodate; if you're a big shop, Oracle can do that, too, so Oracle is a solution for every kind of business."

"The most valuable features of the Oracle E-Business Suite are best practices, built-in processes, and easy configuration. Plenty of system functionality and customization."

"The most valuable feature is definitely the ability to go in as a manager or as an individual and do everything in one place, for example, to add, change, or remove a goal."

"Flexible to set up an organization with multiple locations."

More Oracle E-Business Suite pros

Cons

"With payroll, the payroll that they have offers US or Canadian tax. However, here, our tax payments are different from the US and Canada. It is very difficult to put in our tax tables. We need some customization. It should be readily available for any country to use according to their tax implications. The system should know different types of tax regimes around the world so that it can accommodate. It's a little bit rigid on that."

"This is now a legacy product, so they're phasing it out over time."

"There should also be extra redundancy when posting to modules. We use different sets of books such as CashBook and CheckBooks therefore if I select the wrong one the solution allows the transaction to just pass without warning."

"The biggest problem with GP is that it's not cloud based and it doesn't lend itself to subscription licensing. But Microsoft wants everything in the cloud and licensed on a subscription basis.Even tThough GP can be deployed on a cloud server, but basically, it's a Windows based product. It uses the older model and companies purchase the program and pay a 16-18 sixteen- eighteen percent annual renewal fee but Microsoft wants everybody to pay monthly or annual renewal fees on a subscription basis."

"I would rate technical support for Microsoft Dynamics GP on a scale of 1 to 10 as six or five maximum."

"It requires a lot of expertise to implement."

"Initially, we encountered challenges, particularly with users transitioning from their previous applications."

"It still can be improved in web-based and build reporting. "

More Microsoft Dynamics GP cons

"The user interface could be better. It's not good because they made their interface all in one, and my customers don't want to use it. I have to customize the interface and personalize it to hide some fields on the screen. It has lots of information on the screen, and the user can't easily navigate it. It's very difficult to use. I think that Oracle should have something like best practices. They need to provide some patches to simplify the interface based on the industry niche. Because now we see everything on the same screen, but the users don't need all that information. It's complicated to use for end-users, and we have to spend more time training them. In the next release, I think they should implement most of the features in the mobile app. It should be better. Oracle didn't update their mobile application for a very long time. Connecting the mobile application is complicated."

"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."

"It requires training before you can easily use this product, so it should be easier to use."

"Oracle E-Business Suite's stability could be improved as they have a lot of bugs that need to be fixed."

"It's not really an ordering system; it's not friendly, for that matter."

"We have some glitches. We have some application server memory issues that generate huge Java dump files."

"The stability is generally good. The only real issue we've had is with runaway concurrent requests, which brings things to a crawl."

"We have dealt with customer service, and it was awful. For a system this size, it felt like we were merely buying software from them."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We evaluated some local products, because of the pricing, but this product has better features and support."

"Its pricing and licensing are high. Of course, we all know that it is Microsoft."

"For us, in our local currency, it costs us around 5 million Botswanan Pulas a year. It's quite a lot of money."

"It is an affordable solution."

"I would say that the pricing is moderate, not cheap, and not expensive. There are many more expensive ERPs than GP, and there are less expensive as well, so it is moderately priced."

"The solution's price is steep."

"In comparison to other ERP systems, the pricing is not necessarily inexpensive, but it can be considered more cost-effective."

"I think the tool is competitively priced and it's more of a one-time investment with a low annual renewal fee."

"The pricing is high."

"We pay about $300 a year in order to license the solution."

"Oracle E-Business Suite is cheaper than SAP. It is expensive."

"There is an annual licensing fee and you are able to add features depending on the scope of the environment."

"Oracle's pricing is on the higher end."

"Whatever the products you use, you'll be paying a yearly maintenance price or a support price."

"In order to minimize the implementation and consultancy costs, business lines should have proper definitions. They need to have a proper way of retrieving their data, which should be structured well."

"This product is more expensive if you compare it to SAP."

Reviews from Real Users:

Kopano R., Freelancer at a tech services company, says, “What I found most valuable in Oracle E-Business Suite is the patching because it is straightforward. As long as you follow Oracle's best practices, you are able to finish the task of patching without a problem. I like that it's also easy to add products, e.g. if you want to add on financials, you can, or if you don't have financials, you can expand on that. I like that Oracle E-Business Suite is really scalable.”

Mohammed G., Senior Oracle Application Consultant at a comms service provider, writes, “Oracle E-Business Suite consists of a lot of streams, such as financial and HR processes of the enterprise companies. We are using most of the Oracle financial modules, and we have an Oracle stream, FI procurement stream, and HR streams, which have a lot of applications. Oracle E-Business Suite has over 20 different modules to choose from, it is comprehensive. Additionally, the integration is very good. “
