Oracle is one of the tech-colossal in administering the solutions for Enterprise business processes & customer relations. It has been an excellent practical choice for many large & mid-size organizations and now with Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offering, makes it more attractive to startups. Well, Oracle applications have undergone various updates over the years in which Oracle Fusion applications and Oracle Enterprise-Business Suite (EBS) are two of the most popular Oracle business software platforms. 

However, selecting the right one for the business needs can be proven challenging. This is especially true for the stakeholders and decision-makers that lack technical knowledge. Let’s examine Oracle Fusion applications versus Oracle EBS and should you opt for EBS R12 or Fusion applications? 

Oracle Fusion V/s Oracle EBS R12

Oracle offers two viable options, either upgrade to the latest EBS R12 (either 12.1.3 or 12.1.2) or switch to Fusion applications (Now as Cloud ERP). It’s easier for SAP users who have a single core ERP product to choose from but still, it is a dilemma for quite a few organizations to select the right decision. 

Oracle has promised to make significant investments in Oracle EBS and has pledged to offer Premier Support throughout at least till 2032, with yearly updates and revamps. Being a part of Oracle’s continuous innovation model and part of the App’s Unlimited Initiative, Oracle EBS release 12.2 is the last major upgrade that EBS clients ever have to make.

Now, listing the benefits of upgrading your EBS to release version 12.2X:-

• The upgrade to R12.2 is direct, which makes the shifting process easy and seamless. Furthermore, you’ll be staying within your same instance platform, with no need to move to a completely new system, as it would happen if the decision was to move to Fusion applications. 
• R12.2 offers advanced improvements, enhancements and strengthened security. Under Premier Support, Oracle EBS clients can rest assured that their instance will continue to receive the new updates, fixes, and security updates that maintain the systems and allow them to run optimally as well as securely. 
• While upgrading to R12.2, no significant technological change is required. The learning curve is minimal and there is no need to adopt & incorporate the latest technology changes. 
• Just like Fusion applications, R12.2 runs on Fusion Middleware. Thus, you can immediately enjoy the most valuable ERP functionality available as soon as you upgrade to it. 

Here are some of the key aspects of Fusion that one should consider when comparing it against EBS R12.2:-

• Oracle Fusion applications are positioned as the next-generation Business Application solutions by Oracle. It has a low cost of ownership and leads to faster ROI with standard architecture tools for setup and deployment modules. 
• Fusion applications are built on service-enabled architecture and are full of SaaS models. Enterprise applications are easily integrated into a service-oriented architecture. 
• Fusion applications are encompassed with best-in-class enterprise solutions acquired by Oracle. 
• Fusion applications can run in a cloud computing environment or a company data centre and can be used across multiple areas including customer relationship management, human capital management, supply chain management etc.

Oracle ERP Vs. Oracle EBS

Oracle ERP software is scalable and easy to integrate with other applications. In addition to scalability, cloud solutions provide a single, integrated solution for all your business needs. Here, we’ll compare Oracle Cloud ERP and Oracle EBS.

For on-premises solutions, Oracle EBS is a more flexible option. It offers a fully secure, flexible environment with fewer risks and costs than on-premises ERP. Additionally, Oracle ERP Cloud is accessible from anywhere, at any time, and from any mobile device. In addition to being more secure, it’s also more customizable. For remote users, Oracle ERP Cloud’s mobility allows remote access.

What is Oracle ERP Cloud, and How Does it Work?

An ERP Cloud is an application that is hosted on the cloud and based on the same database as the on-premises version. The difference between the two is that the cloud solution is flexible, scalable, and receives regular software updates. In contrast, an on-premises system requires periodic upgrades, installation, and specialized services. In addition, Oracle ERP Cloud doesn’t require periodic updates as an on-premises solution does.

A cloud-based ERP solution is easily scalable, easy to integrate with other cloud services, and supports massive data transfer. In addition, Oracle ERP Cloud reduces maintenance costs, as no IT staff is needed to create connections. This makes it ideal for businesses that use many applications. And with its centralized database and modern, intuitive interface, the new ERP system can be used from any device.

What is Oracle EBS, and How Does it Work?

The Oracle EBS suite of enterprise applications is a comprehensive suite of business applications that helps large companies introduce a complete suite of enterprise applications. These products include the HR module, iExpenses module, the supply chain management module, and the order entry module. In addition, organizations can receive support from Oracle for security patches and modernization. The Oracle support team can also provide specialized training and technical support.

Oracle EBS is designed to make it easy for large companies to introduce a full suite of enterprise applications without requiring a huge investment. As an added benefit, Oracle EBS also comes with Lifecycle Management, a comprehensive list of functionalities, and the support and security patches from Oracle.

Oracle ERP Cloud vs Oracle EBS, which is better?

Comparing Oracle ERP Cloud and EBS is a difficult task. Both of these systems have their advantages and disadvantages, and you should consider your business needs before making a choice.

 1. Cost-effectiveness

Oracle ERP Cloud costs less than Oracle EBS. According to Nucleus Research, on-premises ERP is five times more expensive than a cloud-based solution. Those costs include hardware, software, human resources, and training. Additionally, the Oracle cloud applications are better at data consolidation and analysis, helping you make sense of your business finance. With the ease of integration, companies can adopt these solutions faster and more efficiently.

As a cloud-based service, you don’t have to worry about the cost. Compared to the on-premises versions, Oracle ERP Cloud requires minimal IT effort, and it is less expensive. The best thing about Oracle ERP Cloud is that it is available from anywhere and works on any device, including mobile phones.

2. Scope

The Oracle ERP Cloud offers better scalability, lower cost and faster time to value. The Oracle EBS offers end-to-end integration with social tools and other technologies. Oracle ERP Cloud is cloud-based, meaning that all users are connected by a device with an internet connection. The Oracle EBS is typically hardwired into the in-office computer, which presents a major barrier to remote working capabilities. 

3. Value for time

If you’re looking to reduce the IT time required for an on-premises ERP deployment, you can opt for Oracle ERP Cloud. This software uses a cloud infrastructure, allowing you to leverage the capabilities of partners and use the capabilities of partner services to reduce costs. On-premises versions of Oracle EBS require significant IT effort and are not suitable for businesses with a flexible work environment.

4. Easily accessible

Oracle ERP Cloud applications can be accessed with the help of a browser at any place and anytime. Therefore, allowing it to have greater flexibility for working remotely. Oracle EBS, on the other hand, offers web-based clients. Its users need a mobile gateway or Virtual Private Network (VPN) if they want to access outside the office, as their servers are deployed on LAN.

5. Infrastructure

With Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, you can deploy the best solutions for your business needs by leveraging partner capabilities. There is a limited number of application integrations possible with Oracle EBS.

6. Automatic upgrades

Oracle ERP cloud version, updates are automatic and can be performed anytime. This makes the cost of updating software much lower and less disruptive than with an on-premises version. With Oracle EBS, updates must be performed manually, which requires more time and effort.

7. Integration and Scalability

As a cloud-based solution, Oracle ERP Cloud can integrate with a broad range of applications, including third-party SaaS solutions. It also has a robust architecture capability. In contrast, Oracle EBS is typically hardwired into in-office computers, which creates a barrier to remote work. Although both ERP solutions have advantages, the cloud-based version is much easier to integrate than its on-premise counterpart. It provides seamless data synchronization and a variety of features that the on-premise version doesn’t.

8. User Interface and Mobility

While the EBS platform features robust security and ease of use, it has become a ‘legacy’ system with fewer updates. Oracle ERP Cloud is cloud-based and can be implemented quickly and easily. The application can be updated continuously and requires a single data centre. This reduces IT costs and disruption. Mobile applications exist for Oracle EBS, but they are limited in their actions, and additional configuration is needed for authenticating and accessing.

9. Architecture

Cloud-based Oracle ERP provides seamless application integration and secure architecture. It is difficult to integrate SaaS into Oracle EBS, which requires the IT department’s assistance to build and design the integrations.

10. Maintenance

IT departments can focus on their core competencies as they no longer need to handle the updates and maintenance manually. The Oracle ERP Cloud infrastructure handles all the maintenance, upgrades and updates. Update deployments and upgrades to fresh releases are time-consuming and costly and require the IT department to devote a greater amount of time and effort.

11. Licensing

Oracle ERP Cloud requires no upfront licensing fees and has a lower maintenance cost. Costs associated with Oracle EBS licenses and maintenance are higher.

Supply chain management is one big concern for businesses across the globe. Fortunately, the tech biggies like Oracle have been addressing the concern through technology-led solutions and trends. At the recent Oracle Cloud SCM Virtual Summit, the experts acknowledged the growing SCM challenges, especially when the world is getting out of the pandemic phase. 

Organisations of all sizes need to rethink and restructure how they manage supply chains to not just serve their existing markets, but also extend their limits to the new ones. It should include everything from extensive deployment of Oracle’s cloud-based SCM to more investments in Oracle Supply chain management training. 

Continuous Updates

The biggest advantage of Oracle cloud applications is its flexibility. It can be easily configured to meet the requirements of an organisation. It can also be modified to accommodate constant innovation and keep pace with changes in the business environment.

Oracle maintains a strong connection with customers and takes regular feedback on applications. Based on their observations and experiences, various product enhancements and upgrades are planned. It, therefore, helps to create products that are extremely useful for organisations. 

Power of Sustainability

The idea of running sustainable businesses now runs deep in organisational values. Every company is looking to inculcate methods that drive sustainability across its operations. With regard to the supply chain, it is important to take note of procurement and packaging policies. If companies undertake measures that reduce their carbon footprint, minimise energy consumption and reduce waste at the end of the product lifecycle, sustainability measures can be effectively practised.

Oracle strives to embed sustainability in all its operations and is exploring ways to incorporate sustainability endeavours into its products. It is also believed that Oracle supply chain management training will play a crucial role in supporting the sustainability drive.
