PinakiGhosh - PeerSpot reviewer
The implementation cycle has been reduced significantly but has room for integration enhancements
Our existing customers who are on ECC are on-premises. They are migrating to SAP Cloud Platform, specifically on S4HANA.  One of our clients was on SAP ECC on-premises, and they are moving to the cloud on S4HANA on the public cloud system.  We are supporting about 15 customers, mostly small to…
Miguel Maloney Thompson - PeerSpot reviewer
A scalable and stable solution that has good scalability and is easy to setup
It is a scalable solution. I have yet to have a scenario regarding automatic scale and if there's an increase in resource requirement or need. We have yet to have that scenario. We have yet to test that. The scalability was more than manually adjusting and increasing whatever I had to do. I rate it eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"SAP Cloud Platform's performance is much faster than the on-premises solution because of continuous fine-tuning by their team."
"The mobile access capability is very beneficial."
"The product captures data in real time."
"It’s great that we have the entire suite of SAP at our fingertips."
"The ability to expand it whenever required has been great — it's very simple."
"The ability to build custom applications on the BTP platform, reducing customization on the SAP HANA system and improving performance and management."
"The features I found most valuable are the integration options."
"It's very easily implemented, especially with the Grow Platform."
"The advanced level of production-ready Docker hosting, one-click application deployment, and the truly flexible pricing."
"The solution is scalable, and that is what we are looking at. There is no learning curve as we have not done much research."
"The control is valuable. It's really easy to use and you have good control of your solutions."
"Technical support from Jelastic is very good."
"The dynamic vertical scaling is a unique feature."
 

Cons

"The product needs improvement for serverless native integrations. They should opt for serverless features as all the customers worldwide choose cloud-based products."
"The pricing is too high across all SAP products relative to resource utilization."
"The product could be improved for consistent user interfaces."
"It would be helpful to have additional samples for SoapUI that include interface methodologies and templates."
"Shows errors without providing any analysis."
"The current pricing model is credit-based. We would like to have more information about the usage of the existing applications."
"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."
"SAP is expensive."
"The backup functionality needs to be improved."
"Lacks better integration into enterprise storage products."
"The backup features need improvement, or rather it should be added, as I could not find it."
"The security layers also need to be improved because there is no clear layer or tier of security in the solution."
"For now, some customers are requesting support of Docker containers for Windows."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"SAP Cloud Platform costs $2 to $5 per hour, while I found other platforms way more affordable. You have to pay per use, though that's fine because that means the cost is flexible."
"SAP Cloud Platform Integration is an expensive product. I rate its pricing an eight out of ten."
"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."
"The cost when it comes to monitoring can be difficult."
"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."
"Cost-wise, I'm unsure of how expensive the SAP Cloud Platform is."
"SAP offers yearly, subscription-based, and pay-as-you-use licensing."
"SAP Cloud Platform is generally more expensive than the other options."
"Pricing for providers is revenue-shared based. Providers should invest in hardware to set up the Jelastic cluster."
"I would rate the cost 3 out of 5. There are additional costs other than licensing fees."
