Director at Norderia
Embrace efficient data management with integrated features but anticipate some enhancement needs
This tool itself is new. SAP Data Quality Management was brought in by SAP recently, maybe a year or two years back. We just started implementing and we still have not heard exact feedback from the client. It would not be correct if I give feedback now because I don't have accurate feedback from client usage. I feel it is a good tool with some limitations. We compared it with Celonis, which is also one of the other tools in the market. I am more into SAP and S4 HANA, so I am not familiar with all the best tools available in Data Quality Management which can be compatible with SAP. We know there are issues with SAP Data Quality Management. The advantage of this tool that SAP brought is that it is already in-built. You don't need to build another application layer on top of the existing one. The compatibility and response time for these applications within the same database is faster.

Manager, SAP Practice at a computer software company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Has consistently provided impressive data handling capabilities and robust security features
Some of the most valuable features of SAP Data Services include data extraction where SAP is the best in that perspective, but when it comes to analytics or the reporting tool, I prefer to connect with Microsoft Power BI, which is a fantastic tool. Typically, from an end-user perspective, SAP has a huge amount of data, in terms of terabytes of data, but when you analyze that, the best form of visualization is always through Microsoft Power BI. SAP Data Services provides a best-in-class return on investment, as SAP's vision and forecast are absolutely amazing. They are ahead of technology, building an ecosystem that meets the standards of the fast-changing digital economy. SAP is indeed good at all this now, with so many components such as SAP Signavio, SAP EINS, SAP Work Zone, SAP ALM, Cloud ALM, SAP public cloud, SAP private cloud, and BTP, all of which are essential to meet the latest cutting-edge technologies.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The scalability within the SAP function is good."
"Scalability is good."
"We work with API standards or norms for internal applications, so it's essential for SSE to have tests and pass those tests according to the criteria, which makes SAP Data Quality Management very important for our products."
"Our primary use case is for us to inspect the results from the product and material, and for releasing or leaving the status of the product."
"SAP works well for the financial side of the business, but for anybody who is researching solutions for incident management, I suggest that they use another product."
"It is a very great tool to be used for ETL process."
"It is a good product which does not require deep knowledge of programming and integrates well with SAP other products."
"The product's most valuable features are data validation and rules."
"The graphical user interface and powerful SQL generation capabilities make the coding of ETL flows very easy and efficient."
"SAP Data Services has been around for a while and still performs its job well; it remains a fast data-moving tool, faster than most new ones."
"It's easy to understand and deploy. It's easy to create new applications, and depending on the complexity of the application, it is easy to deploy the new requirements."
"I appreciate having access to the SAP data."
 

Cons

"SAP Data Quality Management would be better if it directly integrates with the ME system. Right now, the company has a lot of machines on the shop floor working as a standalone, so you have to use all methods to ensure that the data interface appears on the ME system and that SAP Data Quality Management records the QM results. It would be much easier if the ME system could be integrated directly with SAP Data Quality Management."
"I would like for them to develop a feature to be able to record all of our inspections so all the data can go through SAP; it's not user-friendly or easy to get further analysis, so we mostly skip this step."
"There are some limitations. They are not covering complete scenarios for all the modules."
"The solution should allow for better integration with other analysis tools."
"The solution shows a lack of cloud support data services."
"SAP Data Services should be made a web-based solution."
"I have several issues with this solution. The embedded features that SAP Data Services offers are not enough for me to implement everything that I want."
"The execution engines and processing engines have shortcomings and need improvements."
"Scheduling of jobs in the sequence is not available. It's a very tedious process to do that particular task. If there was a tool to schedule in the sequence that would be extremely helpful."
"With SAP Data Services, the problem arises when I try to connect to Azure Databricks."
"This is not a solution I recommend for incident management."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The pricing is a little high to make the product more competetive in the marketplace."
"Pricing is good, there is no problem."
"The enterprise version of SAP Data Services is free."
"The license price is expensive but medium to large-scale companies, should be able to afford it. Other solutions, such as Talend are easier to afford for smaller companies. Depending on the sources of the data where you are receiving your data you could be paying for more than one license."
"Its pricing is as per the enterprise agreement and not a concern for us."
"I rate the product price as one or two on a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price, and ten is a high price."
"Speaking about prices, Oracle and SAP are market leaders. So, the prices are more."
"There is a one time purchase fee plus annual maintenance."
