"Unified, Scalable, and Compliant"
What do you like best about SAP Business ByDesign?

Unified Suite: Having Finance, CRM, and Supply Chain in one integrated platform helps eliminate data silos and keeps information consistent across teams.

Real-Time Analytics: The embedded dashboards give immediate visibility into KPIs, without the need to rely on external BI tools.

Global Compliance: Excellent support for multi-currency requirements and multi-national accounting standards, which makes it easier to operate across regions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SAP Business ByDesign?

The platform can feel overly rigid, which makes customization difficult and often expensive. The UI also tends to be click-heavy and slow to navigate. On top of that, there’s increasing concern about SAP’s long-term roadmap and how much it will continue investing in this product compared with S/4HANA. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"SAP BYD from a Supply Chain Management Perspective."
What do you like best about SAP Business ByDesign?

As part of an organization that uses Q2C (Quote to Cash) method for Order Processing, I appreciate the integration that SAP Byd offers. Every step is covered and directly connected to the next and creates a very nice flow of Information through the system.

SAP BYD starts assisting the user at the Sales end where the receipt of a Customer inquiry, raising a quote and creating a Sales Order each get a separate work centre. It then leads to the Purchasing side, which includes Project planning, Materials Management, RFQ and Purchase Orders management. Then finally, at each step of the process (both Sales and Purchasing) the Accounting end is always tracking every movement of Goods & Services, Finances and Data to back the movement, helping in creating the weekly, monthly, and yearly Financial Statements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SAP Business ByDesign?

SAP ByD does lack in quick customer support for any issues faced. Even though almost all issues are solved, the support has often taken a long time to respond to complaints raised by our organisation. This can cause frustration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
