    Guys tanong lang ako kung alin ang mas maganda. SAP or ORACLE?

    Here's a backgrounder...

    My client would to invest in an ERP technology, and would like me to do the integration that will fit their requirement. Honestly I have no idea about SAP and ORACLE.

    What would you suggest SAP or ORACLE? What's the pros and cons of each product?

    Thanks.

    basically, kung ERP solution lang... they are almost the same.

    though I would go for SAP since mas marami ang gumamit nito dito (e.g. Globe, PLDT, San Miguel, Digitel, Shell, Caltex, Petron, Cebu Pacific, etc.) and worldwide (60%+ market share). mas marami ang consultants na available both for implementation & support.

    another + for SAP is that their newer versions offers a vast array of solutions... from billing to point-of-sale to RFID... etc.

    btw, am a SAP Consultant.

    Sir M2, how does it work? I mean from the system development and design point of view.

    I understand that with these product you do integration all the time for system development and programming for report customization.

    What SAP flavor best fits for us sir M2? Our intention is to purchase either SAP or ORACLE and build our own system that fits our requirement. So basically its like buying a programming solution to develop a system from scratch for us.

    Yes + on SAP for market penetration. As for ORACLE I have been trying to call their office several time but to no avail no one is answering the phone!

    Another + on you sir M2 since you are a SAP consultant.

    hmmmm... hirap explain over here... you can PM me your landline number and i'll call you up to give you more details about it (or ibigay ko number ng SAP account manager namin - they'll be more than able to explain it rather than me).

    for SAP/ORACLE... all the best practice business processes are already built-in and can be customized by the consultants (that's what I do). what's good about ERPs is that the "integration" part is already built-in.

    if there are special requirements (like customized forms, reports, interfaces, etc), an ABAP/4 developer is needed. though for the new versions of SAP, programming can be done using Java.

    what we are using in the office is just the old "R/3" version. though what's being sold currently is the mySAP 2004 & 2005.

    here's a quick run down for a project implementation:

    1. design / blueprint
    - lay down the to-be business processes
    - identy needed reports, interfaces, forms, etc.

    2. customize
    - configure the system
    - programming (if needed)

    3. test

    4. implement
    - transport the changes from the sandbox to the live server
    - load the master data (e.g. GL accounts, vendors, etc.)

    SAP din kung tatanungin mo ako coz you said you want integration. Can't give you the details not an expert, high level lang alam ko sa SAP.

    OT ang Oracle ba ERP na I thought database lang sila?

    IMO I think both are robust systems... check the features and functionalities of each tool and align it to your overall requirements, priorities and goals in the short and long term periods. i'm not sure if cost, intergration, or supportability are your needs. so try to harden your requirements, and move on from there.

    its up to both companies how they will meet the clients need. i think they should be calling you here hehehe bidding for your money not the other way around. and there are a number of consulting companies out there as well who can go in and propose a solution based on your needs. who knows there might be other cheaper more viable solutions
