Sentiment score
5.4
SAP Business Data Cloud boosts ROI through improved analytics, automation, efficiency, and integration across various industries in three years.
If you're actually using Domo at a very limited case and you're being charged $20,000, we've seen ROI there, but once it goes really high, you really need to check your metrics and check your profit.
Founder & CEO at AI-OT
We have saved a lot on the number of employees, and implementation time for the projects has reduced significantly since we started using the standard features of SAP Business Data Cloud.
Principal Architect at a tech consulting company with 501-1,000 employees
Once the content is available, then it is a faster go-live with lesser cost in implementation, and that would give an ROI.
Director & Co Owner at INFRABEAT TECHNOLOGIES PVT LTD
There is a return on investment with SAP Business Data Cloud, as it saves money because it performs results quickly and easily, facilitating integrations and speeding up operations compared to other analytics tools, thereby saving time and money.

Customer Service

6.8
Domo customer service is responsive and knowledgeable, but resource challenges sometimes delay resolution, especially for smaller customers.
Sentiment score
6.0
SAP Business Data Cloud's customer support is generally well-received, but some users encounter delays and desire quicker resolutions.
No matter how complex the problem is, it can be taken care of by the support team.
Data Analyst at Anonymous
They were quite professional and in around three to five working days, they had identified where they suspected there was an issue and I was able to fix it.
Analytics Manager at KOKO Networks
It's very easy to get technical support from Domo.
Chief Technology Officer ☆ Chief Product Officer ☆ Fractional CTO ☆ Board Advisor at a wellness & fitness company with 1-10 employees
The technical support is a very well-organized service, with a lot of tools for me as a consultant and for the end user on how to contact SAP support and get issues solved.
Competence Leader - BI at Sabris CZ s.r.o.
For example, when I provide a set of instructions, they often simply ask me to implement those steps without checking whether they are applicable.
Lead Analyst at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
In SAP's policy, for the first couple of years, the product team is also part of the support team.

Sentiment score
7.2
SAP Business Data Cloud offers scalable, cloud-based solutions for enterprises of all sizes, enhancing performance and accommodating growth.
The fact that you're able to easily identify the pipelines or flows that have errors, and it notifies you when you're building a pipeline where you can run previews and tell where to fix issues, is helpful.
Analytics Manager at KOKO Networks
When fetching files larger than 100 MB from SFTP or any other portal, Domo becomes slow due to the heavy file size.
Assistant Manager at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees
Everything comes under the same umbrella and it's pretty user-friendly.
Data Analyst at Anonymous
SAP Analytics Cloud can be used by a small company, and it can be used by a large corporate.
Competence Leader - BI at Sabris CZ s.r.o.
Since SAP has consolidated everything on one platform, there is ample room to expand as much as needed.

There are no limitations in terms of scale, so it fits both SMB customers and enterprise customers.

Sentiment score
7.5
SAP Business Data Cloud is stable and secure, though improvements needed in connectivity and performance during peak times.
In recent years, I haven't had such cases. It's quite stable and I don't have any reservations on its stability.
Analytics Manager at KOKO Networks
In terms of overall stability of the platform, it's very stable.
Chief Technology Officer ☆ Chief Product Officer ☆ Fractional CTO ☆ Board Advisor at a wellness & fitness company with 1-10 employees
During that time, we faced issues from the project side as Domo was not visible in our portal.
Assistant Manager at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees
You have a chance to test it on your test tenant in small increments, so it should not break your productive reports and productive environment.

Other than during these quarterly release periods, the availability is excellent.
Sap Data & Analytics Consultant at Dezert Innovation Technology Company
In a typical quarter, the availability has been over 99%; in a few cases, it dropped to around 98.5%.

Room For Improvement

Domo struggles with pricing, interface, and data issues, needing better visualizations, support, ETL, AI, and customization features.
SAP Business Data Cloud needs cost reduction, enhanced features, better integration, training resources, and improved ease of use.
End users require a license to run their own reports and dashboards, which are fairly expensive.
Technical Project Manager at a educational organization with 201-500 employees
Some technical aspects such as Beast Mode calculation could be improved in Domo, as it would provide more clarity and help in giving insights to clients or customer business team requirements.
Senior Engineer at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees
One of the areas where we've had frustrations with Domo is the aesthetics. The aesthetics are quite limited compared to other BI tools such as Tableau and Power BI.
Analytics Manager at KOKO Networks
On the other hand, it is perfectly fitting to the SAP environment, with seamless integration to all SAP modules, not only ERP but also SuccessFactors and other tools from the SAP family.
Competence Leader - BI at Sabris CZ s.r.o.
If SAP can come up with innovative options to reduce licensing costs, many customers would incline toward SAP Business Data Cloud.
Principal Architect at a tech consulting company with 501-1,000 employees
If I compare the cost with SAP competitors, I find that when creating an enterprise data lake, if I don't use SAP Business Data Cloud and make it directly in the hyperscalers, it is pretty much cheaper than doing the same in SAP Business Data Cloud.
Director & Co Owner at INFRABEAT TECHNOLOGIES PVT LTD
 

Setup Cost

Domo offers flexible, negotiable pricing, often high but justified by integrated features, comparable to tools like Tableau.
SAP Business Data Cloud offers comprehensive features but may be costly for small businesses, better suited for large enterprises.
Domo's pricing is high compared to other BI tools, and it is costly.
Senior Engineer at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees
For long-time users, it can become expensive, but the trade-off is access to the entire platform instead of licensing different components separately.
Chief Technology Officer ☆ Chief Product Officer ☆ Fractional CTO ☆ Board Advisor at a wellness & fitness company with 1-10 employees
They quoted approximately one dollar per KB.

If I compare the cost with SAP competitors, I find that when creating an enterprise data lake, if I don't use SAP Business Data Cloud and make it directly in the hyperscalers, it is pretty much cheaper than doing the same in SAP Business Data Cloud.

Frankly, pricing, setup cost, and licensing seem a bit high compared to other hyperscalers.

SAP Business Data Cloud excels in seamless integration, unique data sharing, and AI-enhanced analytics for efficient, scalable decision-making.

Senior Engineer at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees
None of the other tools provide the kind of support that enables chatting and working on the same item simultaneously.

Domo has positively impacted my organization by giving everyone the ability to see different data cards and make decisions quicker without relying on BI.

The main standout feature is BDC Connect, as it is very useful for sharing data without replicating to third-party tools such as Enterprise Databricks, Snowflake or even in the near future, Google BigQuery as well as Microsoft Fabric.

Have improved workflow efficiency through custom reports but encountered formatting limitations
The downsides of Domo are that we don't have a feature in the same column. When data comes in a time format, text format, and number format, we cannot segregate and create conditional formatting in that column. If in the future they develop this feature, it will benefit more users. Domo requires maintenance on my end, such as updates. I am maintaining some dashboards on a weekly basis and monthly basis daily reports. Because we need to upload in SFTP, we cannot schedule or auto-schedule due to rate purposes. We manually handle the data sets. If there were an option to reduce the cost, it would be easier to access.
Pavlina Pankova - PeerSpot reviewer
Competence Leader - BI at Sabris CZ s.r.o.
Brings reporting, planning, and prediction together in one seamless workflow
I think the areas of SAP Analytics Cloud that could be improved or enhanced are mentioned by users or companies, and they would definitely mention the price in terms of planning licensing. From a consulting point of view, I don't see any major weaknesses. It is reasonably well-developed, and the perfect strength is that innovations are coming on a quarterly basis. It is slightly behind other tools in terms of the number of graphical outputs. Some tools have it faster, but every increment of innovations contains new features. On the other hand, it is perfectly fitting to the SAP environment, with seamless integration to all SAP modules, not only ERP but also SuccessFactors and other tools from the SAP family, for example, integrated business planning for the production planning. This is really a highlight compared to other tools.
