MAMUKA KVANTALIANI - PeerSpot reviewer
Pronto Xi Systems Consultant at GUNNEBO AB
Has supported business operations through flexible customization and reliable reporting features
I find Pronto Xi quite robust, fast, and flexible in its use because we can set up any environment and customize it. It covers a wide range of functions, starting from basic finances such as accounts receivable, payable, down to service projects, manufacturing, plant maintenance, and all customer relationships, providing extensive functionality. We utilize Pronto Xi's customizable dashboards in our organization, and it is integrated with the Cognos BI system. These dashboards help us in gaining actionable insights and making informed decisions because they serve visualization purposes for higher-level reporting for top management and senior management. We use them for visualizations for senior management's everyday, weekly, or monthly catch-up with business performance. The advanced reporting capabilities of Pronto Xi improve decision-making because the users of the information understand where the business stands, how it performs, where the pitfalls are, and which branches of businesses are underperforming or doing well. As long as the basic underlying data is correct, they're excellent to use. Pronto Xi's strong emphasis on security and compliance is quite important for my organization because it is strict with multi-layered access and complex password systems. These aspects influence my trust in the platform because we haven't had any problems with Pronto Xi. While there were issues with other systems, Pronto Xi has been reliable, and I would rate my trust level at nine out of ten. The scalability of Pronto Xi is good as my business grows, both in terms of functionality and third-party applications integration.

Long-term adaptation and evolution meets changing technology trends
SAP ERP is not really real-time. We use the HANA database which is supposed to be memory data in memory, but we are still not very happy. It is supposed to be real-time and come very quickly, but in reality, it still takes time to run. That is why we use BW of SAP, Business Objects, and now we have moved to the Analytic Cloud where we start using predictive AI. SAP recently implemented Databricks, and they started investing significantly in the analytic environment. SAP ERP has been left behind as they moved to S/4HANA with the HANA database. They restructured the whole table structure of SAP ERP, introduced simple finance, simple logistics, and moved HR to SuccessFactors. They have the BTP layer where they manage everything from integration to master data management. The challenge with SAP is that they move very fast to different products and buy different products. It requires significant investment and many skills to catch up because all of these have different sets of technology. The fundamental has changed differently. It is not monolithic anymore but different products under one name, SAP. You have to buy it model by model for additional models. Products such as SuccessFactors, Ariba for procure to pay, Concur for travel, and Facility Management use totally different technology. They try to integrate with each other, but it remains a challenge for SAP to make them have the same management, technology, and operational approach.

Pros

"I find Pronto Xi quite robust, fast, and flexible in its use because we can set up any environment and customize it, and it covers a wide range of functions, starting from basic finances such as accounts receivable, payable, down to service projects, manufacturing, plant maintenance, and all customer relationships, providing extensive functionality."
"Pronto Xi is very user-friendly, and anyone can operate it without difficulty, unlike SAP or AS/400."
"It is easier to migrate to SAP ERP from a legacy system. We have different products for data services, and it is easier to migrate to SAP ERP as compared to other solutions. Stability is one of the main features of SAP. What makes SAP ERP better than others is that SAP has taken into consideration the business processes of different industries, such as manufacturing. They have done the research, and they know what are the best practices. They have already implemented these best practices in SAP ERP, which are readily available for a client. Clients can also customize it based on their individual needs."
"It is an integrated application, and it has been working really well. Earlier, there were different companies for different applications for manufacturing, finance controlling, logistics, and quality. It probably was the first fully integrated application. Whenever somebody is entering any data, for example, invoice data or ordering data, everyone with a right to see this data can see it in the system."
"Overall the solution is very good in the industry."
"If you are well versed in SAP, the initial setup is pretty simple."
"The most valuable features are the ease of installation and the MM functionality."
"It's a good ERP system."
"Most customers prefer to implement SAP because of the customization it offers."
"SAP is already working on improvements by doing annual releases with enhancements."
 

Cons

"There are a lot of things to be developed in Pronto Xi. I believe we need spool files, better control of inventory levels, and improved distribution capabilities."
"The areas of Pronto Xi that could be improved include its appearance, which is quite outdated, as it does not use modern visualization means of its functionality, and it appears to be from the late 90s."
"I do not have any notes for improvements."
"I would like to see the customization of the reports become easier to work with instead of having technical support have to assist us."
"It is not flexible for the users. SAP works in a specific way, and the users and the processes have to adapt to the way it works. It is hard to customize it to the level that we need for our work. It is not easy to get new extensions for process functions, modules, or activities."
"The user interface has room for improvement."
"More integrations and built-in integrations with other environments and products are needed."
"The version that we are using lacks in reporting. The reporting feature needs to be constructed more in this product. There can be better scope for mobility. They could include the technical development of reports instead of depending completely on programming. The programming method needs to be easy."
"If big companies are going for SAP and they would like to install it, they should know that it still needs time. Implementation will cost a lot of money."
"As far as I know, not only did not it help the organization to improve its processes, but also it did not shorten the length of processes, in fact it made the processes more longer than what it was, due to the low organizational and process maturity level (processes could not be the exact ERP processes, they need to be customized)."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The solution is expensive so I rate cost a five out of ten."
"The solution can cost approximately $1 million a year for maintenance for a small-size company and can grow from there. Approximately $1 million is needed for a good-size company."
"This is a costly product."
"I am not sure. However, extensions cost approximately $100,000 or$200,000."
"My company makes early payments towards the licensing costs attached to the product. There are no additional costs apart from the charges paid toward the subscription-based license offered by SAP."
"The price of SAP ERP is high, but it is worth the money. The maintenance and support can be expensive. There should be a different price model for businesses that are not as large to be able to afford it."
"When you have a solution that is stable, reliable, and has a high performance as this solution, the price is going to be expensive. However, when you evaluate the service you are paying for the cost is quite reasonable for this solution."
"The on-premises licensing model comes with annual maintenance whereas the cloud-based licensing model is a yearly subscription. The tool’s pricing is normal and not expensive."
