As I said before, it is a first level tool, well developed, and with very strong development support, although the learning curve, its implementation, the cost-benefit ratio, the price and the user experience is not the most suitable for small and medium-sized companies. It is a company with extensive experience, market positioning, technical support and expanded use.

I cannot run my business without SAP Business One in place. I only consult on on product and that is SAP Business One. Business volume goes to zero if I don't use SAP Business One.
It is the best product on the market - head and shoulders above other ERP packages I have looked at or implemented in the past.

Our institution is a member of the SAP University Alliance. We have chosen to use SAP Business One in our Management Information Systems and Accounting Information Systems classes for seven years, because the students can use the product quickly and come to understand the functionality and integration that an ERP system has to offer.

It is a very complete software, SAP is always releasing new versions to make it more efficient and to provide help on found issues/glitches. If used the right way it can be a very powerful tool on all aspects of the company and can help standardize business processes to make them more efficient and save costs in different areas.

More Cons than Pro's for our type of industry.

We will likely need to upgrade to a higher version than 8.82 because it simply does not meet all the demands of our business needs. Some of the new functionality in 9.0 should be somewhat better, but we will eventually upgrade to All in One.
