SAP Business ByDesign

Vorteile

Wir haben das CRM und in weiterer Folge die Buchhaltung getestet - soweit alles ok

Nachteile

Da es sehr bald ersichtlich war, dass es für unsere Firma nicht geeignet ist bin ich nicht tiefer in die Materie eingestiegen.

Vorteile

1)Great Interface, Amazing Accessibility and Document Flow from one module to another. 2)Scalable to all types of small to mid-size organizations having 1-1000 employees.
3)Easy to use and learn and has provisions with Work Centers for CRM, SCM, FICO, PMO and HRM modules.

Nachteile

1)Limited ability when it comes to specific module based requirements since it tends to be a generic all in one solution.
2) Has a very limited presence under the SAP Umbrella and very few people talk about it.

Vorteile

SAP Business ByDesign is the ultimate mid-level market ERP solution from SAP. SAP came up with SAP Business ByDesign to take care of the mid level companies that couldn't afford the scale of infrastructure needed to run a SAP ERP that the big fortune 1000 companies can afford.

SAP Business ByDesign an affordable option for medium sized companies. The system is hosted in the cloud at SAP's servers. Companies get to buy only the modules that they need without worrying about the infrastructure costs. It's also very cost effective because you only pay for what you use and you can scale to more modules when you need them as your business changes.

For me the coolest thing about SAP Business ByDesign is the fact that it runs on the best database by SAP called HANA. HANA is a powerful, fast in-memory database that allows for powerful business analytics, high level reporting with KPIs and dashboards.

Nachteile

It is not a cheap system. It could be too expensive for small businesses.
The fact that is is cloud based means that it cannot work without a stable internet connection.

Vorteile

This is the best ERP system which I used in my life. There are a lot of unique features in SAP. Among them, the Relationship Map and Query Generator are the best part I like to use. Via relationship, very much easy to get the idea of the transaction because it shows the links between the transaction. It easily gets the decision.

Nachteile

In Production, there is no way to get item-wise cost for the items.

Vorteile

Its one of the best legacy tool that organizations still use and it has vast functions as compare to other products in market

Nachteile

The most thing I don’t like is its user interface.

Vorteile

It creates an interactive space for our workplace that is user friendly and easy to navigate.

Nachteile

It's hard to figure out how to customize the layout.

Vorteile

very easy and self explanatory. Helps keep things organized and easy to send to admin.

Nachteile

There is not much that I see that I do not like.

Vorteile

J’ai utilise SAP lors d’une mission chez un client. Le projet était complexe et il y avait beaucoup de fonctionnalités à mettre en place. Rien n’est impossible avec SAP et nous avons pu tout implémenter sans problème et le client était très content du résultat

Nachteile

Beaucoup d’heures pour prendre en main SAP et être à l’aise. Il faut savoir dans quoi on se lance avant de commencer. Les juniors sont iront beaucoup de mal à être efficace dès les premiers jours. Mais à force d’efforts tout est possible.

Vorteile

It makes it easier for the company to perform its day-to-day activities with SAP's workflow processing and also when it comes to allocating bills to their respective source.

Nachteile

For users, I wish it was possible for a person who loaded a workflow notification to delete it as well if they feel the need to.

Vorteile

Lo primero es que es online y permite tener toda la información en la nube de forma de segura. Es muy completo y cuanta con todos los módulos necesarios de gestión y control de la empresa, se puede parametrizar usuarios con perfiles de autorización diferente. La trazabilidad entre procesos y documentos es una de las mejores herramientas que tiene este software.

Nachteile

Es costoso, la generación de informes no es amigable, se requiere de un partner externo para sacar mayor provecho a la herramienta y entender mejor su funcionamiento.

Vorteile

What I love about this product is that you can customize the platform to your company and industry specifications and have cloud benefits.

Nachteile

There is not really much I do not like about the system. Sometimes support can be slow depending on the vendor and support team/system you use.

Vorteile

Porque me ha permitido aprender a manejarlo durante todos estos años y es realmente util sobre todo para llevar el inventariado es muy eficiente

Nachteile

la verdad no le veo ninguna falla solamente que cuando se actualiza hay q volver aprender cosas nuevas pero eso no es malo.

Vorteile

I has absolutley everything needed and more. Its very well integrated throught all the company and enables you manage all company records at any specific times.

Nachteile

Graphs are no use. If you need a dashboard or simple presentation you are eventually gona need to export data to excell.

Vorteile

It is very good that SAP has also thought to develop ERP system for small and mid business enterprises. These enterprises has generally messy documentation and financing systems, so when you have this ERP system, it makes your job very easy. Just like Business One for big companies, they offer what is necessary for small and mid companies. You can enter your order, follow your invoices, track your budget with account receivables and payables, Also the report are very useful. The list goes on.

Nachteile

The least i can say is like Business One system, you need to spend some extra time to enter manual, it is mostly challenging in the beginning. You need to fill all data for CRM system, so when you skip making these, you are not using CRM system efficiently.

Vorteile

Each employee can simply input their tasks according to there JD and describe their performance during the year. Also individual can be rated to each task and more visible in line manager review.
System can access from any ware and easy to implement.

Nachteile

When comes to year end review process, most employees are engaging with SAP system and some times we experiencing delay response. This may be connectivity issue (bandwidth).
Other than that, System is very user friendly and easy to access.

Vorteile

SAP is very robust and I suspect with proper training and the correct implementation team, it would really help with the everyday functioning of the company.

Nachteile

I am not a fan of SAP BYD because it is cumbersome and difficult to use without intense proper training. It is European based and not intuitive at all, so those combined make it difficult to find what you need and get it to work correctly for you. I'm not shy about trying things on my own, but I find myself giving up and reaching out to our AMS team, which results in charges for help.

Vorteile

I like that there are so many functionalities. It’s great for financial analysis
SAP ERP is a very comprehensive tool that is very helpful to my companies business to achieve best financial and customer support results

Nachteile

This software needs more shortcuts
There also needs to be a way to pull more than. 1 invoice at the time
This part is such a waste of time

Vorteile

SAP is an extremely powerful software that allows you to do just about anything that a company needs to operate smoothly. I particularly enjoy production planning and management from this software.

Nachteile

I cannot stress how difficult SAP is to use compared to, for example, Excel which we occasionally still use. SAP experts had to come in to the company and explain everyone how to use it.

Vorteile

SAP Business ByDesign is an ERP very easy to use, to implement and that allows to have 360º information of the whole company in real time. It is very easy to learn to use by the end users. It has very good integrated BI reports. It's the beautiful SAP

Nachteile

SAP does not do much promotion to the product, to success stories and not much is known about its strengths in what the cloud managed by SAP itself. I consider the ERP's weakness in advanced manufacturing functions, in the management of mass purchases and in the capacity of large batches of information.

Vorteile

SAP is a financial tool that integrates all aspects of a business together, it is fantastic as it enables assigning of different access levels for users.

Nachteile

SAP modules are very expensive as the cost of a total data migration can cost millions of dollars.

Vorteile

Used for monthly purposes on bank reconciliations and financial reporting.
The best is, it shows real-time data of bank balances and can generate multiple reports simultaneously.
Gives accurate data and easy to clear items for Accounts Payable.

Nachteile

Lots of features (supply chain and HR) that you don't use in accountancy and not very easy to master.

Vorteile

SAP is very good in creating tasks, has many, many modules, good cloud system, document flow, personalisation.

Nachteile

SAP ByDeign seems to have been programmed by people with lack of accounting. VAT returns have no date or suppliers/customer names, they only show ID ref, journal red, any kind of reference except what you need to see. You are able to view these in another report after you have done VAT return!
Payment runs and customer statements are the same thing, it throughs out report which you have to accept with no view of what is in the report, assuming that everything you put in it is correct in the first place.
Very cumbersome, too many processes to do simple tasks. Very confused system!

Vorteile

Able to customize the software as per the business requirements was something I needed and there you go I found SAP Business.

Nachteile

Took me little time to get familiar with the product. But overall I love it because of the report creation and it is cloud based.

Vorteile

Easy to configure,has a lot of applications.intutive user interface.this has got good finance features.

Nachteile

It cannot be compared with sap on premise ,way less features and has a small scope compared to it.other cloud solutions are having better performance then this.

Vorteile

Powerful tool for the business, can bring me the information I need from the database.

Nachteile

It takes few months to get use to it and learn all the function you daily uses.

Vorteile

The tool does not require IT investment to be implemented.

Nachteile

The tool is not accessible if you are not familiar with SAP products.

Vorteile

As a software developer for me SAP Business ByDesign is the most easy to use and straightforward to integrate accounts payable software in the market.

Nachteile

SAP Business ByDesign is quite fine in terms of the features they offer however they need to increase the quaility of their technical documentation.

Vorteile

It is easy to use, good quality , many training support available.

Nachteile

A bit too expensive, but it is a good product.

Vorteile

Managing the system requires knowledge of the tools to be used to obtain maximum use of the system.

Nachteile

Basic knowledge is needed Sap Business ByDesign

Vorteile

The fact that it's cloud-based is great for getting insights from any device, anywhere. Also, the extensive reports you're able to generate gives you great real-time data of your KPIs.

Nachteile

The customer support could use a little improvement in terms of data migration and system implementation.

Vorteile

The only pro would be it is cloud based. Beyond that there is no reason to use this in your business unless you would like to lose customers and employee's

Nachteile

Slow performance, terrible interface, not intuitive, not configurable. Crashes constantly. Poor online support, poor training guides. Ten steps to do one task. The service, HR , Marketing section are worthless. Good luck finding the correct design studio tools Absolute junk.

Vorteile

This product has SO much packed into it. It is programs inside of programs that allow us to run numerous reports and many other tasks.

Nachteile

Due to how much the program can do it runs a bit slow. It gets the job done but can sometimes be frustrating.

Vorteile

Good functionality
logical system
good documentation for support
good best practice standard processes

Nachteile

difficult to use
lack of expertise on how to use this system in the market
rigid - difficult to do customization

Vorteile

my experience using this software for learning in business and this application has many features

Nachteile

what I really like from this application is its complete features and is great for fairly large business processes

Vorteile

The thinking is done for us. Other software would require some background programming, this one has it all updated to the current government agency settings.

Nachteile

The freezing on screens, when I try to run specific reports.

Vorteile

SAP has more than 40 years of best business practices built into the software. Then, to have a cloud-based product that reduces IT infrastructure, and keeps my business information where I need it, when I need it, is truly a win-win for any business.

Nachteile

If there was one thing I did not like about SAP, it would be their time-to-market. They are consistently 6 months behind. However, I also think this is one of their strengths - which is to not bring a product to market before it is ready. SAP has always done well in this regard.

Nachteile

Some times it is very slow

Vorteile

Easy to work with.

Nachteile

I am still evaluating.
