Find out in this report how the two ERP solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Order to cash and procure to pay process: They are valuable features because of their integration and flexibility."
"The solution has strong financial models and a strong database."
"It's highly customizable."
"If I want to manage many parts of my organization, such as finances, proceedings, or supply chain I would typically need to buy many different solutions. However, with Oracle E-Business Suite, it is all that is needed. This ERP system has many modules."
"The most valuable feature is the integration between accounts receivable, accounts payable, general ledger, and budgeting."
"The financial module has excellent features that many find valuable, while the HCM module is also highly regarded."
"The procure-to-pay is core to our business and relevant to us."
"Oracle E-Business Suite's most valuable feature is the information that it provides. For example, it's good to know the AR due date and the receipt of the products that you have sold. It is a good solution overall for enterprise management."
"In terms of its most valuable feature, I would say the finance module."
"Because I'm a procure-to-pay consultant, I mostly look at that angle, and I have a bit of experience with sales and distribution. I also like the integration between S/4HANA and other ERPs because S/4HANA is a suite. For example, the integration between S/4HANA and EWM Transportation Management, and Ariba."
"A user-friendly UI with good documentation."
"I find the Production Planning Cockpit (PPC) and Material Requirements Planning (MRP) most valuable modules."
"The scalability is excellent, especially on cloud deployment models."
"The Fiori design is a valuable feature."
"It seamlessly integrates with all the SAP Business Suite products such as IoT, AI, Analytics and all other SaaS solutions. The product is very robust and comprehensive."
"SAP S4HANA has good performance and has allowed us to combine our systems."
"Oracle E-Business Suite uses an old technology (Forms), which is Java-based."
"It is still a little outdated as far as what we consider a twenty-first century software. You're still using Oracle forms, that sort of thing."
"A downside of Oracle E-Business Suite is its interface because it's less user-friendly than the latest cloud solutions. As an organization, Oracle now has more interest in cloud applications, so nowadays, it doesn't focus much on Oracle E-Business Suite, an on-premises solution, so this is another downside."
"User interface is outdated and not user friendly."
"Improvements could be made in mobility for mobile applications or tablets."
"The initial setup is complex."
"If you get away from the financials core of the product, it is not so good at handling peripherals."
"It's difficult for some customers to understand in the beginning. A user really has to understand the processes."
"I'm not a big fan of SAP S/4HANA because it needs a lot of hardware. It is really fast, but it needs a lot of hardware. The hardware for S/4HANA is too expensive."
"In an upcoming release of SAP S4HANA, chain management should be easier."
"The cost of the solution is quite high. It needs to be adjusted."
"This is a costly solution."
"The user interface should be much more convenient and user-friendly."
"Starting out on the solution can be a bit complex and difficult."
"There should be a place where I can get the best available applications in one place. Currently, Fiori applications are available in different tiles on the dashboards. If anyone wants to check the financial, sales, and inventory reporting in one place, it is not possible in Fiori. We would have to develop a custom Fiori application. If that feature can be incorporated into the standard Fiori, it will be helpful for us."
"We would like to see more DevOps capabilities in the future."
