What do you like best about SAP Business One?

The most helpful thing about SAP has been the number of things we can use the program to track. Currently, it is being used to track purchases, drug products and expirations of our items. It has proven very useful for our inventory management, as we frequently need to make changes to our numbers on a minute by minute basis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SAP Business One?

The least helpful thing so far about SAP has been that it is not very user friendly for beginners to the product. It takes extensive training on our part to show new users how to use the product, and how to enter and alter information that we track. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
