Featured Reviews

Adam Elguennioui - PeerSpot reviewer
SAP Consultant at SA&BC
Offers flexibility and better accessibility to users
The security part of the tool is not so strong, making it an area I would like to see improved in the solution. When working with a cloud tool, it's never 100 percent secure and it is always something to take into account. I would like to be more comfortable working with it and feeling safer. In the future, the tool can be made faster. In the future, I would like to see maybe some AI features in the tool to help automate stuff. You need to be able to create your own models to help create some automated actions.
Frederic Hautecoeur - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior System Integrations Architect at bs-team
Event-based data exchange has improved integrations but analytics and support remain weak
SAP Cloud Platform is a strong part of their offering. They are very poor in the analytics area. You do not have much available. If you want to have analytics, you have to do everything yourself. Everything is very expensive, so it is not helping with the infrastructure costs. There is a lot of latency and glitches. The support is very difficult and not really helpful. The fact is you are completely losing control of the infrastructure. If something bad happens, there is nothing you can really do. You have to ask the support and the support will answer when they want or when they can.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The framework supports auto-configuration. A lot of features are already there. It is reliable and user-friendly to develop code, back-end engineering, or locate specific information such as addresses."
"It offers easy provisioning, and we were able to get a server up and running in an hour."
"One key feature is getting to choose the Virtual Machine configurations while setting up the server, which is an automated process."
"Moving to Oracle Cloud has addressed some of our major concerns with having to manage the infrastructure, which needs better scalability, integrated security, and better database access."
"The most valuable feature of the product is being able to test on multiple platforms for Oracle, for VMware, and so on."
"Demoing is always an expensive process, from procurement of hardware to installation of software, now it is easier, cheaper, and more elastic."
"It is pretty easy to use."
"Self-provisioning, easy to choose from WebLogic 11g to 12c."
"The product is very stable."
"The product improved our company's business operations since we got value out of it."
"The HANA replications are very useful."
"It's very easily implemented, especially with the Grow Platform."
"I found flexibility most valuable in the SAP Cloud Platform. It's a simple tool that's good even for first-time users."
"SAP Cloud Platform's performance is much faster than the on-premises solution because of continuous fine-tuning by their team."
"Its integration with SAP solutions is impressive, so if you have applications that utilize SAP data, the SAP Cloud Platform is pretty good."
"I rate the solution's scalability an eight out of ten. My company has 800 users."
 

Cons

"The product is satisfactory but we need more training on managing the machine itself. For example, how do we add more storage, how do we extend a specific portion? I would like to see videos illustrating some of the technical tasks that we often need to do."
"Needs better integration with other Oracle/non-Oracle products."
"I think there should be improvement with the speed and it should offer a more diverse selection of the suites that I can use."
"It has been built on Java technology but requires more integration with other APIs and CI tools."
"Some of the automated platform patches broke our existing functionality and we were not notified about it."
"There are issues with the application's development, including small glitches and errors."
"The product's high price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I would like to see more monitors for standard edition"
"Regarding cost, if you consider the SAP Cloud Platform, it is a little bit on the higher side. Whatever we want to purchase, it is in lakhs of rupees or crores only."
"In the next release, I would like to see improvements with the price and the licensing."
"Better connectivity to on-premise systems would help us to support older systems that are migrating to the cloud."
"The product could be improved for consistent user interfaces."
"I feel that SAP provides the tools, but after that, you are left on your own. It would be better if they provided more support throughout the usage of their solutions."
"The solution’s pricing could be improved."
"The price of the solution could improve."
"When I started looking at the client's IT architecture, I started by doing a study of their services, DVM, data volume, and management services. According to the results, they could be a lot better at this."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Oracle is a little more expensive right now, but not much compared to SAP. Oracle's prices are very much dependent on the scale of the project and how many users are there."
"It is somewhat expensive."
"Oracle Java Cloud Service is an expensive product."
"The pricing can be negotiated."
"The price of the solution depends on the package that is purchased. There are many packages to choose from. The packages are not overly expensive."
"SAP Cloud Platform is an expensive solution."
"SAP Cloud Platform is generally more expensive than the other options."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is a high price, and ten is a low price, I rate the pricing a six or seven."
"SAP offers yearly, subscription-based, and pay-as-you-use licensing."
"The tool could get too pricey...Small enterprises that want to leverage the tool's features will have difficulty in utilizing the solution."
"I discovered that the SAP Cloud Platform is affordable, contrary to the impression that it's expensive. The pricing for extra packages or messages is quite reasonable, especially for things like message throughput and processing."
