Suresh Wickramasinghe - PeerSpot reviewer
Simplifies finance processes and is easy to use but requires a user-friendly interface
JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is a user-friendly ERP solution that is quite simple. It has a very straightforward interface, which allows end users, especially those with a finance background like me, to engage in finance areas such as vouchers, manual vouchers, email receipts, and GL analysis efficiently. This ERP system is easy to handle; anyone can learn it faster compared to other ERPs. For smaller companies or startups, I would recommend JD Edwards.
James Balbach - PeerSpot reviewer
Centralizes our enterprise-wide functions but could benefit from cloud migration
We have dealt with customer service, and it was awful. For a system this size, it felt like we were merely buying software from them. They weren't really partnered with us on it. Reporting bugs and getting feedback, as well as having engineers work on issues, was very transactional. There was no real ownership on Oracle's part. During several support cases, it became difficult to determine ownership at Oracle and get status updates. The on-premises Oracle support is not great in my experience, and I think this is true in the industry. We've read about their software as a solution, and theoretically, their SaaS portal support is a lot better.

"Oracle E-Business Suite improves forecast accuracy, reduces costs, and increases manufacturing capacity."
"Order to cash and procure to pay process: They are valuable features because of their integration and flexibility."
"You can group them into the BIs, which is business intelligence. You get your own key performance indicators and build your own reports or you could have your own screens, and it changes in real time."

"The most valuable feature of Oracle E-Business Suite is the customization."
"The technical support for the solution was very good."
"It was very easy to integrate the product into our existing infrastructure."
"It can be an essential solution for those who can not just push to the cloud because they have critical data restrictions."
 

Cons

"EnterpriseOne's integration could be improved."
"The initial setup of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is straightforward. However, it could improve."
"If they can research and make the installation part easier or more user-friendly, it would be nice."
"The reporting has to be flexible or it will turn the end-user off."
"Financial side could be expanded by bringing in things like the IMS."
"I would like to see the HR features enhanced with respect to localization for South Africa and other countries."
"Treasury management is typically used in forex, loans, trade management and property management is not available. The solution could improve if they added them."
"For large or sophisticated organizations, I would not recommend JD Edwards."
"It should be made a little bit more user friendly. When I complete my implementation and hand it over to the clients or the person who will operate it on a day-to-day basis, they find it a little bit difficult because they are not from a highly qualified IT background. I want Oracle to make it a little bit more user friendly."
"The EBS Design to some extent is still monolithic."
"The system has bugs, is not user friendly, and requires too much customization."
"I would say the integration needs improvement. Oracle needs to work on the integration layer to make the solution much more robust and modern."
"It would be nice to have more web services."
"Oracle is not keeping up on development of the on-premises version of this product as they are concentrating on cloud solutions."
"It is still a little outdated as far as what we consider a twenty-first century software. You're still using Oracle forms, that sort of thing."
"It requires training before you can easily use this product, so it should be easier to use."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Upgrading projects can make JD Edwards EnterpriseOne costlier, so it needs cost reduction in this area."
"It depends on the number of users and the modules that you want to buy. It is licensed on a perpetual license basis. You buy the license costs upfront, and then there is maintenance for support that you pay every year, which is typically about 20%."
"The solution is really expensive."
"The pricing is an "arm-and-a-leg". This keeps the customers away from going for J.D. Edwards."
"The maintenance of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne is expensive and overall the solution is expensive. Most enterprise operation solution is expensive."
"JD Edwards EnterpriseOne has a lot of value for the money. The implementation cost and license cost are quite reasonable compared to other solutions, such as Oracle EBS or SAP."
"In terms of price, it is not on the high end."
"The price of the solution is not cheap. However, it is priced average amongst competitors."
"Both the current projects and future projects should be defined well. Licensing should be done according to current and near future plans."
"Products concerning areas like CRM and ERP should provide value at lesser costs to customers, especially if you consider that the initial cost of implementation is high."
"The price of the solution is extremely high."
"I have found the solution overall to be expensive. There are additional fees on top of the standard license."
"The price would be better if it were lower."
"Oracle E-Business Suite is heavy subscriptions based and the solution's upgrades, under the technology licensing, are quite costly. Additionally, support is an extra cost. The price of the solution could be reduced."
"The license is very expensive and I think that it needs to be cheaper to get a wider range of users or customers."
"The pricing is high."
