"SAP ERP's interface is pretty easy nowadays, as it has evolved over time and has been made as user-friendly as a person would like it."
"It is a stable solution...Our company has experienced a return on investment using the solution."
"SAP is more reliable in terms of data quality than other systems."
"The solution provides good production planning."
"There are many interfaces, so you really can build satellites around it like with other SAP stuff or even third-party stuff."
"SAP has provided a much more integrated platform for managing our manufacturing business."
"This is a robust solution with a lot of control measures."
"The implementation is very straightforward."
"However, the production guys tell me that Penta is not suitable for mass production. If we build a hundred cars per day or more, then we'll have problems. At the same time, I can't say whether the issue is Penta or our process. In other words, maybe we have too many manual projects in it."
"Functionality could be improved."
"The solution's UI could be better."
"The solution is not ready for the current e-commerce environment."
"The initial setup of SAP ERP is complex and it took a lot of time."
"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."
"In the next release, I would like to see more technical integration for directly designed solutions on behalf of the selling process so that you can design solutions and not have to use ten or more other tools to get the solution for selling."
"Improvements to the UI. The UI is pretty old, but this will change with the upcoming release of S.4."
"It should be less complex. It should also have better integration capability. I am using the ACC version, and in this version, the integration and the communication are very difficult and complicated."
