It is good for small and medium-size customers. Large customers have unique requirements and D365 somewhere lacking compared to products like SAP SCM. UX is very good. Works well with integration with Microsoft products. Integration with 3rd party products like SAP is not that great. It is easier to learn compared to SAP.

One of the best parts is how it is suited to global or multi-site organizations with complex supply chains. It just operates across multiple regions with various manufacturing facilities, and that too with very much ease; it is simple, solid and very reliable in terms of working when the logistics is an issue and fetches data and insights very quickly.

  • The system does not work as smoothly when processing large volumes of data. There are processing delays when we are busy planning.
  • Moreover, because inventory exceptions are not automatically alerted, employees have to check them manually, which takes extra time. Upgrades in these sections could raise our operational efficiency.

User experience has various issues, from the way to represent data on the Dashboard to complex graphical interfaces for making the right report of something that is easiest to make on other similar platforms. SAP Integrated Business Planning is difficult to integrate into other operating systems and ecosystems. Activity planning, in some cases, is confused, and access is limited if customers or end-users don´t use the platform over the internet using a desktop computer.
