On my first 5 years working career, I could only focus on giving solution once customer would like to implement Oracle (both E-Business Suite and Fusion Cloud). I felt like I had narrow horizon such I was too product-centric. That was why I took the leap to move to start up as analyst and product manager.
I was half-wrong in judgement. It's true that there are so many things to think about other than focusing on finishing the project as smooth as possible, as fast as possible. Moreover, I got much insights for whole business processes in a company, especially product development. Yet I actually can utilize my fundamental thinking as ERP consultant on my job on the start ups.
Combining the experiences here and there, I can understand why some company prefer to have low to medium features system since they may have strong or many people on their development team--or simply budget restriction. In contrast, I can also understand why some company prefer to have medium to high features system since they may have small technology team and optimize the advanced features embedded.
This is also making me realized how I took for granted the standard features Oracle EBS/Fusion Cloud to customer, since develop your own system is another headache in terms of timeline, security, validation, or skill. And actually this is one of the reason I decide to go back to ERP career although I am being a presales consultant now instead of a functional consultant.
