Overall Satisfaction with Oracle eBusiness Suite

Oracle eBusiness Suite was used as our primary customer relationship management tool, financials, human resources and order management tool. We had previously an on premises solution and have moved to Oracle eBusiness Suite on Oracle cloud, which has improved support and reliability. It is used across the whole organization, with differences between each region.
  • Excellent integration with other Oracle tools and partners
  • Incredibly powerful suite of tools that after training become second nature
  • Easy to switch from on premise to cloud
  • Advanced provisioning can be overwhelming to start with
  • You are not forced to use other Oracle products, but are pushed
  • Limited to Oracle infrastructure
  • Positive ROI, all tools under one service reduces cost and time spent
  • Move to cloud was painless and easy, positive ROI
  • Move to cloud meant less downtime and increased reliability, positive ROI
I have not used SAP ERP apart from building automations for it, which were much harder to do so due to automations being classed as scripting which is an expensive extra. This is in contrast with most Oracle tools where UiPath is a licensed partner, which enabled quick and easy automation.

Oracle eBusiness Suite is still an industry leader and for large companies is incredibly suited, especially if you subscribe to other Oracle tools. It is less appropriate for non-Oracle customers or those that have smaller companies with existing CRM, HCM or other tools. Other Oracle products such as Fusion cloud continue to eat into Oracle eBusiness Suite territory.
