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

"It is pretty easy to use."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"The auto-backup, incremental backup and restoration features can be invaluable for management."
"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."
"Reduces man-hours and speeds up business operations."
"Developers deploy their builds and if we need to scale the environment we can do it quickly."
"One key feature is getting to choose the Virtual Machine configurations while setting up the server, which is an automated process."
"The solution is very useful and interactive with a dashboard for viewing other interfaces."
"The features I found most valuable are the integration options."
"Feature-wise, I like it since it allows you to integrate with multiple applications. There are available connectors that allow you to integrate."
"The product improved our company's business operations since we got value out of it."
"The ability to expand it whenever required has been great — it's very simple."
"The solution is scalable."
"SAP Cloud Platform has got a lot of new developments and innovative capabilities."
"Cloud Platform's stability is great."
 

Cons

"It needs to have the ability to create a service with the same name as another one when the initial creation failed as sometimes it's necessary to have a service with exact name."
"Some of the automated platform patches broke our existing functionality and we were not notified about it."
"Needs better integration with other Oracle/non-Oracle products."
"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."
"The product's high price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I think there should be improvement with the speed and it should offer a more diverse selection of the suites that I can use."
"Integration with Oracle products is well-supported. The same should be provided for other products that are used in most organizations, like PeopleSoft, CA, etc."
"I would like to see more monitors for standard edition"
"The solution requires more flexibility overall."
"Allowing more third-party applications to be integrated into the cloud platform would make it easier for customers to adopt SAP Cloud Platform."
"For our organization, the price is the main downside."
"When they innovate too fast, they end up confusing their customers."
"One crucial aspect where SAP lags behind in flexibility is customization to suit specific business requirements. SAP needs to understand that customization is inevitable and should be more supportive of business-driven customization."
"SAP offers very little flexibility in its licensing structure."
"I would like for it to have integration to GitHub."
"My impression of the stability is that it is not good. Almost every month there is something new and that makes us nervous about delivery."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Oracle Java Cloud Service is an expensive product."
"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."
"The solution is worth the money."
"The cost when it comes to monitoring can be difficult."
"The pricing can be negotiated."
"The tool could get too pricey...Small enterprises that want to leverage the tool's features will have difficulty in utilizing the solution."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a nine out of ten."
"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."
"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 offers yearly, subscription-based, and pay-as-you-use licensing."
