SCM is good but has room to grow
- End to End processes across each of the particular tracks (we focused on idea to commercialization)
- Easy to navigate user interface and common user interface as we expand into more modules
- Logical way to extend attribution and data model
- Update/Patching process window of only two weeks between test and production is very short
- Oracle Cloud support was very immature and resources were lacking compared to on premise support
- Several features and functions did not work as advertised. Several workarounds had to be added in which delayed project work
Newer modules such as quality will undoubtedly have many more bugs associated with its advertised processes.

Oracle SCM Review
- The streamlined process for Drop ship flow is great.

- Patching window..
- It would have been better if we had all the REST services available to perform most of the functionalities such as get the look up values, create lookups etc ..

Oracle SCM - Best Suited SCM for Small & Mid Sized Businesses
- In Order promising options, we have lead time based, available to promise, capable to promise and profitable to promise. So the promising rules will select best available options amongst them to benefit the customer and the enterprise.
- Allocation by demand ensures that the scarce supply of products are reserved for the most important customers which is a value proposition for any organization.
- The entire procurement process can be automated, which will be executed without manual interventions. This will in-turn improve productivity and ensure compliance is followed in each step.
- Excel is still the preferred choice for planning system, as the complexities / product familiarity still works as a bottleneck towards using the Oracle's Product Supply chain engine. Users prefer to work out [rules] in Excel and then apply the same in the system.
- Business requirements are changing at an alarming rate as the dynamics in the world have been changing due to rapid growth of Artificial Intelligence and cloud computing. So Oracle SCM needs to keep pace with this change and try and accommodate these changes in the new product release coming forth.
