Ellucian Banner vs Sage X3: Which is a better fit?

I was not involved in that process or I guess I'm not sure what I like best. Well, the S.O.S. page is nice and it's easier to perform journal vouchers usinig S.O.S.

Cloud support is very disorganized. Communication from cloud techs to customers is very poor, black box.

The new capability of using Chrome is a great feature as well because our entire organization is comfortable with the format.

They still use 8 character table names!!! The amount of technical debt means if you even wanted to deploy it as a SaaS product, it is nearly impossible, let alone trying to put it up in the cloud.

Amazing application with many features and modules. Banner Finance in particular is the industry leading software.

It's hard to know what you are doing, and it's very easy to make a mistake that could do a fair bit of damage.

This software provides great financial management for the demands of Higher Educational needs. It is easy and user friendly.

It is only working for half of the business. Their reporting functionality is poor and bordering on non-existent.

The structure of the software is good and allows for good navigation. It has some standard features that are good.

As an administrator I always have problems when it comes to support and debugging problems presented in the application in which many of them are not documented properly.

I am happy with the product. I administer this product as well as another ERP and this one is substantially better in nearly every way.

Then refund process was excruciating, didnt refund money and had to follow up several times. Then you have to sign up with Pay for ACH which is worse.

The presentation and easy to create reports with very simple and guided quearys also The user interface is foolproof which is a great solution for the support and information department.

Sometimes can have JSON or Java Bridge errors. Sometimes one minor error can cause the whole system to freeze up.

Overall, our experience has been positive. I would recommend that companies ensure to include it in their RFP process.

Misleading advertising, said works with Mac doesn't really(yeah if I install it in parallel and buy a new subscription for all my other software in Microsoft parallel).
