A while back I said my company was small but had big expensive needs, well we made another commitment. We got the next piece of the puzzle. With HCM/Global Payroll and BI Publisher Enterprise already in our shop we brought everything together with the E-Business Suite. It was pricey but with our Oracle Representative we negotiated a good deal. Still would recommend this system/platform. When properly trained you will get every penny back. Number one recommendation during setup - get a good, experienced consultant.

Pros

We spend stupid money and have many suppliers, we also collect a lot of money that needs to be redistributed across many projects. The power of this system is in the setup.
The system becomes fairly intuitive after being properly trained,
Its web based and can be accessed from anywhere. I have heard of latency problems when installed remotely but our offices are all in the same country and we spent a few dimes on our network so can't really relate.
All the information is tied together and I am a big fan of mass update

Cons

1. A lot of training is required to take full advantage of this system and the training ain't cheap
2. While there is plenty of documentation on everything there is no one piece that just shows you what to do. You have to track down all the pieces. If their where 5 minute videos that just deals with a specific thing from start to finish without all the whys, the back-end info and best practice info life would be great.
3. Its still expensive but worth it if you already have most of the pieces and your organization needs the automation and power

Pros

Users look and feel is extremely friendly. easy to navigate and enter informations . smoothless experience.

Cons

More validations of personal data. Auto-derive names based on Ids or vice versa. Could add better layouts.

Pros

Access to large database, ability to control and regulate multiple aspects of business and employee features.

Cons

Time Keeping. Terrible time keeping arrangement, very slow to update, time cards are somewhat difficult to manage or adjust. Some clock punching do not register. Not very user friendly.

Pros

I appreciate that Oracle's E-Business Suite is well-organized into familial buckets, has quick response times to user input, and has a easy-to-use and navigable interface.

Cons

Oracle E-Business's Suite interface is somewhat antiquated and bland in design, particularly in color and contrast.

Pros

I like the way it organizes things so clearly and efficiently; it makes expense reporting much easier! I also like that you are able to see ongoing status updates in regards to whether your expense report has been approved by your supervisor

Cons

I dislike that occasionally it resets itself before you have an opportunity to save your work and therefore your work has not been saved do you have to re-do it.

Pros

The user interface is easy to use, even for beginners. This product has a relatively easy to use interface for all levels of endusers.

Cons

Getting specific reports in specific formats can be difficult or impossible. Reports can be very slow to process. It's not always the most intuitive program.

Pros

Oracle E business suite has Clean layouts, with an ability to drill infinite levels below the surface.

Cons

Reporting is tricky in Oracle EBS - reports that must be updated must be done manually. these were few cons i can think of

Pros

I like the fact that it is web-based, and depending on your organization's security setup, you can access it from anywhere.

Cons

Java can be a real pain. We set up our users' systems with the right version of Java, the right compatibility mode settings, etc., when they are given their computer.

Pros

I like that I can manage my hours, benefits, and pay all in one location. It is easy for traceability to see the last transactions and history, and allows for anyone to update PO's and had good searching functionality.

Cons

The fact that it is web-based is frustrating, there is an applet that is requires to run which resets and can cause issues with the company securities. It also does not work with Google Chrome, requiring one to constantly use internet explorer or firefox; this is not my preferred browser at work.

Pros

I like that all of the information is conveniently located in one place and can be access from anywhere, as long as you connect to the server, or in my case, through the VPN and have access to that information.

Cons

I dislike that the system is not very intuitive. I frequently had to ask a coworker if something was available in Oracle and where to find it.

Pros

This is very power ERP application. It works very well in supplier chain management that is semiconductor manufacturing.

Cons

This requires a big cost to maintain and develop or customize the new things. The performance is not really good, especially if it is installed in not really strong servers.

Pros

I like the fact that it has a lot of functionality, it has a lot of packages attached to the software. I also like the scalable nature of the database

Cons

Install time is horrendous, it takes ages to install all the packages. And installation of the package was very tedious .

Pros

It is usable by the entire enterprise. We had a multi-country organization that had access to the entire system and that worked well for us.

Cons

It is not user friendly, especially in accounting. The bank and AR modules were cumbersome and inefficient.

Oracle has been one of the stronger packages I have used in the HR world (and liked the way it fed over to Payroll). Overall, screens were easy to navigate.

Pros

Overall, Oracle was very straight-forward and easy to use. I have used at least 3 or 4 Management tool packages and feel Oracle has been the best one so far.

Cons

We also used Oracle Discoverer for reporting. Although MOST of it was great, there were some things the reporting could not do that made a user have to "know" their data in order to make sure certain data records were not coming out in their report (or, it'd come out and you would have to know to pull out certain data records).

Must have product for Best CRM experience

Pros

Ease of use.
Excellent integration withing Oracle modules
Can be customized as per requirements
Less time in user training
Best in class, industry wise solutions

Cons

Working with Oracle support requires some patience
Understanding native and third party integration bit difficult

I have been using Oracle Ebiz suite from last 6 + years. I feel it is designed very smartly. Though I feel if Oracle can produce an ERP which does End to End HR process that would be more benificial something like SAP

Pros

User friendly

Cons

Need to have End to End HR ERP

The extra field very useful to get extended information. But some bugs haven't been fixed completely, so we have to use bugfix everytime the problem happen again.

Pros

Easy to create SR. Extra field to be used.

Cons

Bug still exist even though we already do the patch.
Development takes a lot of time (more than 5 years)

Easy manageability . Customize use only the required modules scalability

Pros

Customizable

Cons

Too many patches
