Overall Satisfaction with SAP Business One

SAP Business one was a replacement for an older CRM that was used prior. We used it to have a clean streamline from our Clients and our Vendors. The main problem that is possessed is the consulting portion. I feel that the management that implemented the optimization for our company did a poor job to hit the main focus of SAP.
  • Creating Vendor Accounts
  • Using their invoices feature.
  • The speed of SAP to access potentially archived information.
  • Their ability to quickly view vendor payments and clients payments.
  • SAP might be excellent, but I feel that the manager who spoke with the developers to optimize SAP did a horrible job and did not take advantage of the full functionality of the program.
  • SAP could move a little more smoothly when loading information, it is fast, but it's sometimes inefficient.
  • I believe the company that I worked for that did this caused us to have unnecessary steps when adding vendors to be paid on client invoices.
  • Allocation of records from the previous system
  • Everything is at a glance, but too compact.
  • Could use more feature to work with non-warehouse clients.
I feel that is is better than a lot of older CRM's but the programs diversity is lacking. However, that could also have a lot to do with the contract who developed the site for the company I worked for at the time. Not a bad program overall, for the most part.
I think SAP is more suited for warehouses and drop shipping clients, not a fan of SAP for other clients services where there could be room for improvement. I think the note taking feature needs to be more compatible with invoices, especially when there is room for client dispute. The note feature on SAP was also not able to show the full details of the conversation. I believe they should adopt note taking from Zendesk.
