Great product with a great implementation team
It is currently being used for accounting and finance and will also be used by manufacturing when we get to that stage. Entire organization will use it. SAP consolidates everything onto one platform and will help us manage our inventory and manufacturing processes better than QuickBooks.
- The user interface is easy to navigate.
- Reports are easily created in order to analyze data.
- Inventory is tracked in an efficient manner.
- SAP doesn't allow for there to be updates to inventory items once they have been created. It would be ideal if updates to items could be made.

- It has allowed us to track inventory efficiently.
Yes
The initial phase included accounting, finance, and inventory modules. The end phase will include the manufacturing module.
SAP business one provided a more complete solution since all modules are included in their package. Other ERP providers charged extra for each module that was implemented. SAP was more economical than other providers.
- in-person training
We had live training.
When we needed to add additional account determinations in the set up. They walked me through the process over the phone.
No
- Integration of purchase orders to goods receipt to invoices
- Set up of the account determination. You really need to know what to do here since this set up drives a lot of the transactions in SAP.

We use Stellar One Consulting for any SAP support needs.
- SAP has a well developed Accounting module
- We are still waiting to fully implement SAP (Production module). That is the area that we will see how SAP helps our organization.
- When we have sales, we will see how SAPs service module functions along with warranty tracking on products sold.
Yes
SAP replaces QuickBooks. We needed a more robust software for inventory tracking and production of products.
- Price
- Product Features
- Product Usability
- Positive Sales Experience with the Vendor
The features available was the single most important factor. We wanted a solution that offered everything in order for us to use these modules as we expand our business.
Wouldn't change it.
No
Don't require it now. Maybe in the future when we open up the production module.

Excellent budget ERP for Medium and Small Businesses
We use the product for our complete sales and purchase process, meanwhile, it is fully connected with the finance module and it creates automatically a journal entry for every transaction that affects the general ledger. The reporting module has many options and is really customizable, and you can create your own reports once you get familiar with the structures of tables and fields in the database.
- All the modules are connected. A document you post on the sales or purchase modules gets an immediate journal entry on the finance module.
- The system is very customizable. You can add extra fields to almost every document in the system.
- The reporting is very good. You can create your own report via the Query Manager and then even add some layouts to the reports.
- The Software Development Kit (SDK) has some errors that haven't been solved from previous versions of the system.
- The Print Layout Designer (PLD) is somewhat tricky to work with.
- The cost of each user license could be pretty expensive for some companies.

- SAP Business One dramatically reduces the time of communication between the departments in the company.
- The possibilities for the users to make their own reports (at least the simple ones), reduces the cost of the consulting you will need, although some consulting will always be needed at the start of the project if you don't have an in-house team.
- All the processes in sales and purchase departments are greatly improved in our company, so users can spend more time analyzing information and scenarios, and less time doing routinary work and data input.
Yes
The implementation was performed using the SAP's methodology called ASAP (Accelerated SAP). The methodology is broken into 5 phases: Project Preparation, Business Blueprint, Realization, Final Preparation and Go Live & Support. Each phase of execution focuses on documentation, recommendations, and
implementations of SAP systems. After each and every phase executed
successfully quality check is carried out that will help the monitor to
deliverables and also focus on vital factors which are crucial for
success.
- The licenses are usable on multi companies by the same users as long as the DB is on the same server.
- The project could perform some delay if there is no 100% dedication from the users.
- It's important to have a very well defined business blueprint.
SAP Business One is one of the best ERPs for a medium or small business in the market today. It has a wide variety of modules and it is really easy to use and set up. You can trace every transaction and know what user performs it, at what time, and in which date, for all your audit needs. When comparing SAP to its competition, SAP provides the best overall solution for the price you are paying. If your business grows, you'll always have the possibility to upgrade to a much complete version from the same manufacturer.

As SAP Business One is an ERP System, all the processes of the company are integrated onto it, so most of all of the staff have access to SAP B1. The areas that currently work within the system in our company are finance, sales, purchasing, marketing, inventory and IT.

To support the SAP Business One software we have an in house team that perform the centralized support from one country to all the countries the company has operations on. They are usually systems or computer engineers, are very high skilled with ERP systems and are certified on the SAP products.
- The whole accountability is registered on the system.
- All the item tracking is performed on the system.
- All the reports are generated directly from the information stored on the system.
- We have interfaced SAP B1 with our logistic software.
- We used SAP B1 on more than 30 companies in 15 different countries.
- We connected the system with most of the local tax authorities that requires to send online information.

SAP is the software leader for the ERP industry according to the gartner magic quadrant for ERP vendors. The usability of it's products is well known in the industry and the scalability of their products and its ease to connect with other programs let us to decide for SAP Business One as our system of choice.
If we had to the selection process all over again, I think it will be
exactly the same. As the time has gone by, and even though other
softwares can certainly be very well rated as well, we are pretty sure we
made the right choice by selecting SAP Business One as
our ERP software.
- Implemented in-house
Change management was minimal
When implementing a system like SAP Business One, it is very important to let people in the organization know that they are not going to be replaced by the new system, but they will perform better at their jobs and have a new tool they can rely on for performing the job a lot better and more efficient.
- In-person training
No
When we were implementing the SAP Business One software,
we perform most of the implementation with our in-house team, but then
we ran into a few questions that we do not know how to answer, so we
requested some help from our partner software support and it was very helpful
for finishing the implementation without any extra troubles.
- The reports are easy to generate.
- The system in general is very user friendly.
- the document traceability is really helpful.
- Some modules could have better reports.
- The MRP process could be improved.
- The exchange rate window doesn't have a modification log.
Yes, but I don't use it
- Several connections to local tax authorities.
- Logistics Systems.
- WMS Systems.
SAP Business One provides a SDK so you can do your own programming and you can extract the information directly from the database.
- None at the moment.
None at the moment.
- File import/export
- API (e.g. SOAP or REST)
We perform most of our integrations of SAP Business One with the local tax authorities via a XML file exported directly from the database and then sent to the tax authorities via a FTP or SFTP. We can also configure the selected method to be a web service if the other end requires it.
If you are planning to integrate SAP Business One with another software or application, keep always in mind that you cannot perform modifications directly to the database, In other words, you cannot perform UPDATs or DELETEs statements directly onto the DB, because SAP's warranty can be voided if the DB gets corrupted.
When we were on the negotiation process for acquiring the licenses for SAP Business One, as we have operations across multiple countries, our partner recommended us to acquire all of the licenses only in one country, because of the bigger volume we could get a bigger discount and still be able to use them across all our locations.
