Featured Reviews

Alejandro Stromer - PeerSpot reviewer
Director Consulting SAP OpenText en Entelgy at DCL Consultores EIM SL
A stable and scalable hybrid solution with easy setup
The solution is scalable. It has three levels. You have the presentation area that can be escalated to the balance sheet. You have the back-end area that can be escalated using higher viability to configure more application servers. Also, the area of storage can be increased. We usually cater to enterprise solutions but have small- and medium-sized customers. It starts with 25 users and goes up to 100s and 1000s.
