We performed a comparison between Netsuite ERP and SAP S4HANA based on our users’ reviews in four categories. After reading all of the collected data, you can find our conclusion below.
Comparison of Results: Based on the parameters we compared, Netsuite ERP seems to be the superior solution. Our reviewers find that the questions concerning the simplicity of AP S4HANA’s deployment process, stability, scalability, and the effectiveness of the technical support that it provides make it a riskier investment than Netsuite ERP.
"NetSuite is significantly more affordable than Oracle EBS and offers a wider range of features than other OEMs."
"We leverage the core platform but are able to add additional functionality for ease of use, tailored processes, and industry related reporting."
"The user interface is very good."
"The most valuable feature is that it works according to how the Internet works."
"It is a very solid product for finance and procure-to-pay processes."
"I have found there to be many features, such as manufacturing, accounting, financials, inventory, and purchasing."
"I like the ease of setup and customization of forms."
"Every year, they release a new version."
"The tool's most valuable features are ease of use, high availability, and connectivity."
"S/4HANA falls under a single terminal. We can easily access the data, and the performance is good."
"Provides multiple tools for easy integrations"
"SAP S/4HANA is the preferred database because of its scalability, faster accessibility, compatibility, and other well-suited features for large data sets."
"The processes have been reduced from almost 10 steps to four or five steps. It's really been simplified."
"One of the things I like about it is its well-integrated and secure nature."
"SAP S4HANA has good performance and has allowed us to combine our systems."
"The functionality of SAP S4HANA is very good when comparing it to others, such as Oracle, Microsoft, and other ERP solutions."
"Many features such as local taxation and fund management are not there yet."
"The solution is not user-friendly and it is complex to use."
"In NetSuite ERP, they should focus on offering better customization options."
"In terms of the main improvement to NetSuite is the talent itself. It's grown so fast and there are about 25,000 companies running on it, and it's a relatively newer system compared to other competitors. It's growing so fast that the talent base in the partner organization (there's about 200 of them), is pretty thin."
"The communication has been peculiar, and the overall commercial process has been less than satisfactory."
"An area for improvement in NetSuite ERP is its accounting functionality because it has certain limitations. You can't maintain sub-ledgers or post accrued expenses in sub-ledger forms, so you'll need to post in journals. The pricing is another area that can be improved in NetSuite ERP because the pricing was lower when it wasn't part of Oracle, but after Oracle acquired Netsuite and NetSuite ERP was offered as a cloud service, the price went up."
"The manufacturing and planning side could be improved. That part isn't up to date. NetSuite could be easier to integrate in general."
"What needs to be improved is the development in the other areas and other businesses that can use NetSuite."
"It's an expensive solution"
"SAP S/4HANA could improve by making the interface easier to use."
"If I can highlight one point that could be improved, when we talk about other ERPs, like Oracle, nowadays these ERPs provide free integration with other ERPs. For example, there is an API for banks integrated into every tool and every product form requires that bank integration in order to give real time data into the ERP. But SAP is charging a lot for that particular bank integration scenario and I think it should be free because other ERPs are providing this feature built in to the ERP. People always ask us about the integration and how much it will cost to go with that solution, so people are thinking about this."
"You will not see convenient user experiences with SAP S4HANA's website or application."
"Thi solution can improve the Bill of Materials (BOM) and production planning."
"The theory-side of the solution needs to be improved."
"The solution is quite expensive."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
