Supply Planning and MRP: Its very easy for the users to use supply planning to procure material in the right quantities and in the correct time without spending a lot of time reviewing data to make decisions.
The supplier collaboration is very good. Using the suppliers to act as an additional planning review step allows us to manage the overages and under ordering of material based on forecasts that our planners may miss.
The requisition approval flow is very good after it is setup. This gives me the financial accumen to make decisions on spend and to also be able to review the spend in the OTBI to balance my budgets.

Change Orders, very hard to customize the field setting at all to help us capture data that is important to us, it will also be nice if it was integrated with the budget so it would be automatically updated.
Would be helpful if there was a feature that will allow us to send and track sign off requests for external clients through the tool, this is still something we need to do outside of the tool.
Ability to download into Microsoft Project and make your changes to your plan and then upload into Oracle.

One of the best solutions in the market with a user-friendly system. This is very useful when the ABB system (Like we had 800xA) is there, new or existing; all the ABB systems can be integrated using this rather than going to a 3rd party vendor, which may have interface problems.

Based on 5 answers

We find the application very intuitive and most users and suppliers, once trained properly, have stated how easy the application is to use. Several users were reluctant to use Oracle Cloud, but once they dived in and learned how easy it was to create, view, and close their request they were ecstatic. This application has allowed users to have more visibility than previous applications.

The application is used by big banks like HSBC is a testament to its reliability. I did not hear or experience any outages.Oracle is in the hosting business since long. In its previous avatar, it used to be called as Oracle on demand. So oracle has enough experience and expertise in hosting and managing customers applications in their datacenters.Oracle is the only major company which has platform as a service, database as a service and software as a service product offerings on the cloud.Hence customers can rely on Oracle as many major fortune 500 companies do.

Good support in terms of quality and promptness. When we had problems with some of the commands not getting executed, their online support also provided a good solution to solve the problem. Even mission-critical task we were able to solve during this Pandemic time. The suggestion is to go for the online support 1st in the future, followed by a visit.

The inperson trainings from Oracle University are effective. The trainers have vast experience and teached thousands of students. In person training will make people sit in a class and do the exercises. One can also learn from other students, who come with different background, industry etc. In person training will be an immersive experience and helps learn more in a short period of time.

We bought online training subscription from Oracle University. The subscription allowed our team to learn the nuts and bolts of the application.The subscription model helps access to all the modules as opposed to buying training for one module. We also leveraged guided learning subscription from Oracle. Guided learning is a state of the art learning application from Oracle. It resides within the application and guides the users on each and every step. This is learning by doing and is very effective.Once you buy guided learning, oracle keeps updating it with the release of new functionality in the quarterly upgrades.

Although we had some hiccups during the implementation, overall I believe it was a success. Some lessons learned, maybe don't migrate open po's or contracts to the new system, start fresh. Other things, be sure everyone understands their role in the application and how to support it. We did spend some time going back and forth because we weren't sure who was responsible for the action. Otherwise, I would say we were successful and to date we are still working through some issues; but, the system is working beautifully.

Well, simply said there's a reason we USED to be their clients. although their ideas are innovative, Oracles cloud has become the on-stop-shop for everything these programs used to do. We used to have to pay both companies to get the functionality we were looking for but since switching we literally only use Oracle for everything. Honestly has made everyone that stayed on-board's life much easier.

Once fully brought up to speed, employees in Finance and Accounting are able to use HFM for most all of their reporting needs.
The complexity of the system has sometimes increased the amount of time necessary to complete needed analyses and presentations.
Assuming the coding is done correctly, using the Excel add-in Smart View allows us to create custom analyses and dashboards.
