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.

A great choice for straight manufacturing, but not suitable for complex manufacturing models
SYSPRO at the moment is lacking on the project side. There's a module called Projects and Contracts, and it's a poorly designed module. One of my clients is a project-based organization, and they're finding it extremely difficult to manage their business using SYSPRO, to the point that they're looking at alternative solutions. The Projects and Contracts module is not a very useful tool. It does project accounting reasonably well, but in terms of putting in proper structures, like a work breakdown structure and so forth, it's actually quite poor. Their design or their architecture for the Projects module isn't good enough. They need to redesign it and redevelop it. They have made improvements. However, the problem is that if you're building on a bad foundation, then your building isn't going to be very strong. That's principally their problem. Any heavy equipment company would have a requirement to keep their equipment available for production. In that sense, SYSPRO has no maintenance management functionality. There's also no functionality for field services management. These two functionalities are critical for places like mines or for heavy equipment manufacturers who service the aftermarket and so forth. From a product perspective, this obviously isn't a good place to be because they are sort of taking themselves out of the market for quite a number of industries. They are constrained to manufacturing and distribution.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The ability to streamline all of our information is the most valuable feature for us."
"The implementation of Oracle E-Business Suite is easy."
"Basically, the most valuable feature is the suite; basically, your integration between APAR, PO, fixed assets."
"Oracle is best suited for large organizations — from medium to large — and it's a great solution for companies who grow quickly and need the best scalability possible."
"I have found the solution to have a good interface, security, and is user-friendly."
"With Oracle EBS, the customer gets a better cost calculation and an integrated system between departments."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle E-Business Suite is the customization."
"Oracle E-Business Suite is a very integrated application. My overall rating is nine out of ten."
"The Financial Accounting module, in general, is quite good; it is quite simple but powerful, and similarly, the Manufacturing functionality, including a multiple level bill of materials, is also quite useful."
 

Cons

"In my current scenario, I would not recommend EBS for anyone. It is better to purchase a cloud solution rather than having this one."
"We are moving to the cloud and are looking at the cloud version of it for the cost of ownership and a more modernized integrated platform."
"I would rate the level of the technical support as a seven out of 10. There are big delays in the issues of resolution times."
"We wanted a fully-fledged solution that has got payroll, HR, finance et cetera, basically everything finance and administration we'd like to see sustainability management. This solution doesn't offer exactly what we need all in one package."
"Oracle E-Business Suite should be more detailed and user-friendly. I should be able to customize the screen or application without needing technical support."
"In the future, Oracle E-Business Suite could improve by having a better UI. Competitors are providing much better interfaces."
"I'd like to get BI integrated into the transactional system and not just the Data Mart. We've been having issues with making that happen."
"Not user friendly."
"SYSPRO at the moment is lacking on the project side. There's a module called Projects and Contracts, and it's a poorly designed module."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This product is more expensive if you compare it to SAP."
"Compared to other vendors like SAP or Microsoft, the prices for Oracle are reasonable, but they could always be lower."
"Both the current projects and future projects should be defined well. Licensing should be done according to current and near future plans."
"We have an annual license to use the Oracle E-Business Suite and we have an enterprise license."
"Oracle scales the pricing, but E-Business Suite is still very expensive for small to mid-sized businesses."
"There is an annual licensing fee and you are able to add features depending on the scope of the environment."
"Oracle generally gives a lot of discounts."
"Considering the market at the moment, Oracle needs to adjust the pricing of this solution."
