There is hardly any customization required for it, if implemented correctly. The UI needs improvement.
The UI: To train one user on SAP ECC takes at least two weeks. Though once familiarized, people can remember shortcuts and t-code for the change management is still high. Thanks to the vast majority of large organizations using SAP, the user adaption is a lot less if users come from SAP/GUI environments.

IT Architect at a financial services firm with 5,001-10,000 employees
I like the assignment management and contact management features. I would like them to extend the possibility for functional segregation.
Extending the possibility for functional segregation would allow us to decentralize certain functions between different areas. In our organization, the administration of users (or executives who access the system) is done by an area. The management of executive skills is performed by another area, according to the current Siebel. These roles should not be independent.

Pros

"There is hardly any customization required for SAP, if you implement it correctly. ​​"
"FICO, especially newGL. It solves a lot of manual consolidation issues."
"Strong financials for project/logistics integration and most of the functionalities, like interco posting and MM-SD consolidation, work out-of-the-box."
"The solution has enabled us to ascertain costs and profitability online, improve process control, improve stocks control, improve our planning and decision making process, and take advantage of critical information online that allows us to quickly take actions."
"SAP Business Suite is an Enterprise Management tool enabling end to end management of most if not all areas of the business."
"It provides end to end customer management, from marketing all the way to support, meaning you also have sales, product management, literature, asset management, opportunity analysis, maintenance SLA compliance, and support, with all the common features present on modern CRMs including phone sync and email merge capabilities."
"I found that this product had the ability to meet our business needs."
"With the implementation of the assignment manager, we are now able to automate assignment rules that we previously had in hard, and this feature allows us greater flexibility when incorporating new assignment rules."
"Being a single source of information, this provides an authoritative source of information."
"Data migration, data deduplication, and application flexibility with respect to business rules are valuable features."
"As far as CRM's go, it's a very flexible solution, and we're able to customize the business rules with code and to integrate it with middleware applications to manage the rules externally."
 

Cons

"Modules that don't work so well due to lack of flexibility include: Cash Management, Maintenance, and APO."
"Implementation is complex and requires experts in SAP and experts in business to work closely to ensure that the appropriate systems and business changes are made."
"The UI: To train one user on SAP ECC takes at least two weeks."
"Business rules for data duplication can be improved."
"The initial setup was complex. The degree of parameterization required for the initial setup was not made obvious."
"It is a very expensive product and data steward module is very complex."
"Pricing is very high."
"Deployment is still considered cumbersome and the integrations are quite an expense."
"There were issues, mostly due to the lack of capability of the implementation partner who delivered the solution."
