Cloud security assessments have improved cost control and vulnerability management across clients
The alerting system could be explored further, as it would help users integrate the alerting system more effectively. Additionally, an AI feature would be beneficial, as AI is prevalent nowadays and could integrate into environments to help customers. I would particularly like to see the AI feature added to CloudSphere so it automatically integrates into our environment and generates comprehensive reports, which would decrease workload from the engineer's perspective. If CloudSphere integrates AI and guides users on which security compliance they need to follow, AI could automatically scan everything and provide a report stating which areas need improvement and what points require attention.

Platform has supported global rollouts and has delivered faster, more reliable commerce journeys
In my view, SAP Commerce Cloud can be improved as it currently feels too heavy, with customers nowadays expecting solutions to be deployed in months rather than years. This is the most significant issue with SAP Commerce Cloud, which caters primarily to Fortune 500 companies and falls short for mid-sized businesses. I do not have a clear idea on which specific feature they should implement to better serve the smaller business market, despite their several past attempts. Regarding potential improvements for SAP Commerce Cloud, I am not the best person to discuss deployments as I lack a DevOps background. However, I believe the primary enhancement should be in their vision and communication of product benefits. Personally, I have found SAP salespeople to be less friendly compared to their Salesforce counterparts. Their inflexibility regarding discounts and offers might be an area for improvement.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"For the customers I work with, it provides flexibility as far as storage is concerned, so it's security and access."
"The product is helpful for the management, optimization, and utilization of resources."
"CloudSphere is a good solution that works well and can integrate with multiple clouds and manage all our customers."
"Provides multiple kinds of services for managing the clouds of multiple customers."
"The scalability of the solution is a godsend."
"CloudSphere is very mature and very effective."
"We do not need to install any appliances or any agents."
"When I started using CloudSphere, it wasn't mature, and it had multiple issues. For example, my team experienced server issues while using the solution, but recently, I noticed how much CloudSphere has improved. There used to be some latency issues with CloudSphere. It even gave error messages in the past when you select an option such as "the web server is not responding", but it has improved a lot, and now I don't get any errors from CloudSphere. What I like best about CloudSphere is that it has a lot of beneficial features, and it has a single pane for managing multi-cloud environments, which I find very helpful, and it's the main benefit you can get from CloudSphere."
"In SAP Commerce Cloud, I find the integration and the back-end part most valuable because they can be easily integrated with the SAP product catalog and CRM and so on."
"If you have a client and they want to have an e-commerce project that is based on solid principles, you don't need too much time to develop it."
"SAP Hybris provides us with all of the e-commerce features that a client could need."
"SAP Commerce Cloud has positively impacted our organization by allowing us to launch our website within six months as an omnichannel platform, providing production support readily available and quick product loading, which was crucial for our startup company."
"Hybris offers a platform designed for speed."
"This e-commerce solution represents 70% of the company's income."
"SAP Commerce Cloud enabled them to deliver features much faster and build more digital native experiences, which everyone is waiting for."
"The tool has good performance."
 

Cons

"When we start the scanning of, for example, 500 servers, it will not handle the scan. We need to differentiate the jobs - for example, one job for 100 servers, a second job for another 100 servers, et cetera."
"The solution must have a single management console for the resources and VMs."
"Their customer support leaves a lot to be desired. The standards are not that great."
"The alerting system could be explored further, as it would help users integrate the alerting system more effectively."
"CloudSphere is not keeping up with the pace of the cloud and there are a number of services that can't be deployed using CloudSphere."
"One of the cons of this product is that it will not discover all the applications running."
"The next feature I would like to have full disclosure of what's being done with the data."
"The main issue I experienced from CloudSphere was recently resolved, but an area for improvement in the solution is that it lacks the functionality of migrating resources from one public cloud to another. If CloudSphere could provide that functionality, that would be very beneficial to users and companies."
"Sometimes it's slow in accessing products. Also IMPEX upload was complex."
"A public cloud solution of this software would open great possibilities."
"They need to use microservices to make it more scalable, but it's acceptable for now."
"The initial setup was complex because it was a prime migration from the PrestaShop platform to commerce cloud, and it was very, very complex to migrate some data from one side to the other."
"Like every other SAP solution, it is very heavy."
"Since it comes as an overall package, the license cost is high, and you might or might not use the Solr integration, which allows breaking it based on the use cases to reduce some cost or burden on the companies purchasing the product."
"It is very expensive to implement, which is why many companies who can't afford would normally move to Salesforce or Magento."
"The main issue for improvement with SAP Commerce Cloud is the UX/UI and the fact that it's difficult to change it because of technical constraints, which makes it insufficient as it currently exists."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It depends on how that model will be used. It might be anywhere between $4 and $15 per license per month. It’s less expensive than other options."
"The product is very expensive."
"The price is quite high."
"The product is expensive. I would rate its price a seven out of ten. The solution's licensing is yearly."
"The price is too high."
"The solution is expensive."
"SAP Hybris is expensive, which is why only the large clients use it. At the same time, I think that the return on investment warrants it."
"I don't know the cost, but it can be expensive."
"The solution is very expensive in Turkey."
"This is an expensive solution."

WCS vs Hybris vs ATG - Feature Smackdown
They say "Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder", so if you are a purist in one of these technologies you would probably never agree to my comparison matrix, However these are my personal opinion, From my experience standpoint I have longest exposure to WCS Commerce Suite and the least with ATG…
