Director of Development at a tech company with 51-200 employees
A true MEAP, but installation is extremely painful.
What is most valuable?
Solid development platform that allows you to automate functions from different backend systems. It is a true MEAP.
What needs improvement?
Installation is extremely painful. Communication between Sybase, the required Relay Server and Afaria is very difficult and time consuming. The required products keeps changing as well, you may need to add NW Gateway into the mix as well. The "GUI" generation isn't to that point that you can eliminate the need for custom platform specific code for the user front-end. The long-term roadmap of SAP's mobility platform is very confusing (acquisition of Syclo, etc.)There isn't a big ecosystem of consulting partners, SAP consulting, etc. that have deep experience to help you hit the ground running.
Disclosure: My company does not have a business relationship with this vendor other than being a customer.
