Deltek CostPoint vs SAP ERP comparison

"The stability of the solution is fine."

"The architecture of the solution overall is great. It's great for development, testing, and production. I've worked with solutions where the architecture wasn't as strong and it was a disaster."

"The initial setup was straightforward."

"The most valuable features of SAP ERP are the integration between all departments, such as purchasing, finance, trading, and sales."

"It is easier to migrate to SAP ERP from a legacy system. We have different products for data services, and it is easier to migrate to SAP ERP as compared to other solutions. Stability is one of the main features of SAP. What makes SAP ERP better than others is that SAP has taken into consideration the business processes of different industries, such as manufacturing. They have done the research, and they know what are the best practices. They have already implemented these best practices in SAP ERP, which are readily available for a client. Clients can also customize it based on their individual needs."

"It is the best solution in the class of ERP products."

"Everyone who uses SAP ERP has benefited from the functionality."

"The solution is very mature."

"It is an integrated application, and it has been working really well. Earlier, there were different companies for different applications for manufacturing, finance controlling, logistics, and quality. It probably was the first fully integrated application. Whenever somebody is entering any data, for example, invoice data or ordering data, everyone with a right to see this data can see it in the system."

"Overall, the solution is very difficult to use and learn. The learning curve is difficult. Also, the GUI and user interface are not intuitive."

"The only feature that is not available in our current version is web access."

"It could be more flexible, and the company should be able to adapt the system. Not the other way around. It's very rigid and difficult to change. Reporting could also be better."

"The user interface needs to be improved."

"It has a high cost."

"We will not make any major changes, and we are not expecting any enhancements or new features from SAP because they already have a new solution. No development is happening on SAP ERP because SAP has come up with a new version called SAP S/4HANA, which is memory-based technology. We are planning to upgrade to SAP S/4HANA, but we don't know when it will happen. We are in the preparation phase."

"The system is very big. It is not exactly user-friendly, due to the fact that it's so massive and complex."

"The power of ABAP Development Tools is the main valuable feature in the SAP ECC system. Every couple of years SAP upgrades ABAP technology significantly, which facilitates developers' work."

"License fees are too high."

"The solution has moved from a licensing model to a rights-based, subscription model in the cloud."

"The product has high pricing."

"My company makes early payments towards the licensing costs attached to the product. There are no additional costs apart from the charges paid toward the subscription-based license offered by SAP."

"The licensing costs are slightly on the higher side. They need to make it more competitive."

"There is an annual subscription for the use of SAP ERP."

"It could always be cheaper. They don't have a very easy model of licensing, but large entities would get the upper hand in negotiating the license."

"SAP ERP is an expensive tool."

"The solution is expensive so I rate cost a five out of ten."
