Featured Reviews

Ramesh Pampana - PeerSpot reviewer
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.

Offers predefined rules and easy to migrate data with minimum customisation of rules
The customization of the data needs improvement. We need to build basic SQL queries rather than being able to do it within the tool. We need to be able to analyze the SQL queries and then rerun them based on customer usage. We should be able to tune the existing process by using simple SQL queries based on the customer's requirements. In future releases, I would like to see more features around Preload and postload reports. From the end-user point of view, it is not very feasible to read. I need to know how the data has been migrated. I need to know whether the complete data has been migrated, only the required data has been migrated, and how it was migrated. So the postload reports will give validation between the source data and the target source. It would give exact picture of the data migration.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like how SAP Data Services links reporting and data integration. That's what's most interesting. You also have the opportunity to leverage the power of the Data Services server."
"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."
"Its integration capabilities and the data migration capabilities are the most valuable. It is very good for SAP and non-SAP tools. It has very good integration with SAP, but it also has the capabilities to connect to other systems. We find it very helpful and stable."
"We have integration with 30 different systems now, business users' manual data-entry load has decreased, and data between different systems are consistent in almost-real time."
"It is a powerful product with a broad range of features."
"Doing De-Deduplication of data for Data Cleansing is much easier and has been revolutionised with Data Services, especially used in conjunction with SAP Information Stewards."
"The solution helps us to collect and analyze data, and this is the most valuable feature for us."
"The HANA database, which is very fast, is a valuable feature."
"The customer service and support is good."
"Syniti has built-in 80% of the solution, and we only need to customize 20 to 25% of the features. It is easy to run and pre-load reports."
"The major benefits of Syniti Data Quality stem from the productivity and flexibility it offers to users."
"With Syniti Data Quality, you can integrate SAP and directly fix errors from Syniti Data Quality instead of logging into SAP and then fixing them."
 

Cons

"The solution lacks user-friendly features; compared to other integration tools I've used before, it's less user-friendly and the built-in features just aren't sufficient."
"Address validation in SAP Data Services is chargeable and should be made free."
"The initial setup is complex. It takes time to get used to."
"The technical support for this solution is not very good, they don't really care about assisting with issues."
"Source code control is another headache. When your source code base gets too large, managing the source code becomes cumbersome."
"With SAP Data Services, the problem arises when I try to connect to Azure Databricks."
"It has inadequate data analysis and data profiling, which has increased testing and user acceptance duration."
"Some of the jobs that are built within Data Services require local files, and during initial deployment, those local files cannot be transported between machines simply because of security issues."
"The loading mechanisms and administration processes, particularly in setting up connections and deploying the system, need improvement."
"The customization of the data needs improvement. We need to build basic SQL queries rather than being able to do it within the tool. We need to be able to analyze the SQL queries and then rerun them based on customer usage."
"In Syniti Data Quality, data extraction is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"It would be good if Syniti Data Quality could integrate more AI in the future."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The enterprise version of SAP Data Services is free."
"The price of SAP Data Services is a little high when compared to other solutions. Due to the pricing and capabilities, many clients are switching to other solutions."
"Its pricing is as per the enterprise agreement and not a concern for us."
"At the entry level, if you're using it only for data integration, it is a little bit cheap. However, for large organizations it can be expensive. There are additional costs apart from the license."
"The pricing is a little high to make the product more competetive in the marketplace."
"The product’s on-premise version is expensive for a medium-sized company."
"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."
"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."
"I would rate the pricing a six out of ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"The solution is expensive."
