Overall Satisfaction with Oracle eBusiness Suite

I direct implementation projects of Oracled EBusiness Suite; I have about 10 years of leading this kind of project. But as an internal consultant and external consultant, I have been working with different modules of E-Business Suites, implementing and supporting. I have worked with General Ledger, Account Payables, Account Receivables, Inventory, Purchasing, Bills of Materials, Work In Process, Assets, Cash Management, Order Management, Accounting Hub, and a system administrator. The E-Business Suite has dozen and dozens of modules that can help your organization to solve different business requirements, with multiple APIs and interfaces to connect with your legacy systems or to receive information from different sources and then produce the information that you need. I have implemented modules in different companies, from Telecomm, car manufacturing, oil, food, banks, and others. One of the advantages is that EBS business flows are very complete, and you can buy and implement modules as you can or require.
  • General Ledger. Accounting for many enterprises, consolidation process.
  • Payables as you can control the invoice age and make the payment at the right moment.
  • Budget Control stops you to over expend, even at the purchase requisition moment.
  • Cash conciliation, a very good process.
  • Cost Management with the right inventory cost with different methods.
  • Easy with client orders in order management, and good shipping process.
  • Nice interface between client orders and receivables invoicing.
  • Inventory management, as can get better.
  • Applying Adjustments to receivables invoices.
  • Work IN Process, at the moment of moving assemblies between work stations.
  • Designing indented bills in Bill of Materials.
  • Since it is in production, the ROI in most projects has been positive within 2 of 3 years.
  • Improvement in Procure to pay business flow can be as good as 6 months.
  • Assets control ROI is within 6 months.
I Have not tried other products, I've been an Oracle consultant for a long time, first, an oracle developer, using forms and reports, later, programming Oracle EBusiness Suite Extensions, and an Oracle Consultant for EBusiness Suite and ERP Cloud.

The best suited: When you need a very robust solution where you want a perpetual license product with multiple ways of deployment. And, because of the nature of the business or because of external legal requirements, your business needs multiple customizations. You can deploy EBS in cloud infrastructure or in your own hardware, and it is very good for large enterprises.
Less appropriate: If your enterprise is small or medium business, very standard, or you can not pay a lot for perpetual licensing or hardware to deploy your ERP systems.
