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.

Can accomplish more with this tool than with a website or shared drive, yet reporting is weak

A large percentage of our employee base is remote at client locations. A web-based VMS allows anyone to access our catalog, and to work on their professional development, 24/7, regardless of location. I am a single system admin for over 600 users. I can accomplish much more with this tool than with a website or shared drive that doesn't have reporting, assignment, and other capabilities.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"When I put these aside, EBS saves time and increases the efficiency for the customers."

"It's integrated, and for any ERP solution, that’s really where the value comes in; just one solution to cover a whole bunch of areas and having the integration."

"At our various customers, the software tends to pay for itself in less than two years."

"The integration of all the various modules is definitely the most valuable feature for us."

"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."

"Oracle E-Business Suite improves forecast accuracy, reduces costs, and increases manufacturing capacity."

"Very flexible in terms of configurations and it's capable of integrations."

"In terms of financials, a 4x growth in revenue since the first implementation was possible by having world-class business software like Oracle E-Business Suite."

More Oracle E-Business Suite pros

"SilkRoad support has been very responsible and helpful."

Cons

"It's difficult for some customers to understand in the beginning. A user really has to understand the processes."

"One issue with the product is because it build on a lot of older technologies, there is a substantial technical debt in the system."

"One of the major issues is that the solution has a high price."

"We don't like Oracle EBS because it is very old. Nowadays, all the systems are on the cloud and web-based."

"I would like an end-to-end in terms of processes. There are different modules, however, there's not that end-to-end that we are looking for in terms of process automation."

"Improvements could be made in mobility for mobile applications or tablets."

"Oracle E-Business Suite is a bit outdated because it's been developed more than ten years ago, and this is an area for improvement."

"The way things are going, Oracle is not putting much effort into their master data management. They need to look into machine data and then the integrated data domain."

More Oracle E-Business Suite cons

"The ability to view and report on, then manage data is not very robust."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"E-Business Suite's pricing could be lower."

"Licensing and costing of Oracle EBS is very complex. We recommend to use a system integrator during the negotiation process since Oracle sales representatives sometime do not know the actual minimum requirements and may oversell the necessary licenses through ignorance."

"Compared to other vendors like SAP or Microsoft, the prices for Oracle are reasonable, but they could always be lower."

"USD $100,000 annually."

"At our various customers, the software tends to pay for itself in less than two years."

"Oracle generally gives a lot of discounts."

"I would rate the pricing a nine out of ten, with ten being very expensive."

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