There are a lot of good features liked by the users, some of the features are: 1. It can be used for performing multiple tasks in various functions like finance, CRM, HR, project management, etc. 2. It is a very streamlined tool that is easy to navigate. 3. The user interface is simple and user friendly compared to the other tools available in the market which are more complex. 4. It provides templates for dashboards and provides real time insights about the functions.
It is a license based platform so we can't create sub-hierarchies of access under a single parent access and cost is bit high for large user base.
The administrator's load is too high for an expensive software as a service offering.
1. In the initial stage some users find it complex and report a steep learning curve. 2. The cost of customisation is usually high. 3. The license and renewal cost of the tool is very expensive. 4. It is difficult to integrate with non SAP systems.
