It's very good and lightweight. But, it does not provide web service communication. But it is excellent for internal connections One valuable feature is the messaging broker. If there is a disruption, it restores the messages. And when the application is running, it delivers all the messages. The…

SAP NetWeaver is going to be soon out of the picture. Now we have SAP S/4HANA, which is the recent technology from SAP. Many companies are migrating from SAP NetWeaver to SAP S/4HANA. Going forward, SAP still supports SAP NetWeaver, and it can fully add more functionalities that it is currently adding in the latest versions also. Whichever functions they are adding newly in SAP S/4HANA, they can add it into SAP NetWeaver as so that SAP NetWeaver also does not become obsolete and becomes useful to the customers who are currently using it. SAP has come up with an in-memory database called HANA, and on top of it, SAP has introduced SAP S/4HANA so that it runs seamlessly on the HANA database. SAP NetWeaver can also run on the HANA database, but if the compatibility with HANA database could be improved for SAP NetWeaver, then it will be more useful.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is highly scalable, this is very important for us. It can handle a lot of messages."

"The Messenger Broker is a really good feature."

"The features that I have found most valuable are that it is very easy to develop. Most of it is graphical, but we also have the option to add any custom call that you need."

"The solution offers excellent stability."

"ESB: Provides all kind of possibilities to resolve business needs. A lot of ready to use services plus custom Java services. I used a lot of them all."

"SDM: User-friendly tool which allows for a seamless approach to performing hotfixes, if required."

"SAP NetWeaver is doing its job, and it performs well. In the last year, I have not had any problems with it."

"It is the central point for all our data storage. We have one single version of the truth that we can communicate to all our customers."

"The stability is not an issue, and I would rate it at seven out of ten."

"We can use different transaction codes to check the performance of the system, and if we are unable to access a particular transaction, we can still check the table to see what is happening."

"It provides an efficient integration framework with other SAP products."

"I like that I don't need any extra tools to keep the solution up and running."

"The most valuable feature of SAP NetWeaver is the integration and it is a complete solution."

"What's most valuable in SAP NetWeaver is the integration. That's been very helpful because the company has one thousand five hundred interfaces running, so integration has been the most significant factor. I've also seen many improvements in the SAP NetWeaver user experience, where users can have reports delivered to mobile devices."

Cons

"I don't know if the last version has the cloud option, but maybe that could be good. That could be something that is included."

"You should not hurry with upgrades without testing the whole product completely."

"The solution needs to improve support for new, more recent protocols on the API."

"Aurea CX Messenger could improve by making better use of the new APIs"

"It should include/add more services with the product as per market demand. It should include custom Java services developed by any organization or provide a platform where users/developers can share ideas/custom services, etc."

"The improvement is that it should be on the cloud and use web services."

"Scalability would be a good improvement in future releases, if they do release future versions. They tried to create a seamless style, but it's not necessarily scalable to big development environments that we're trying to achieve."

"SAP NetWeaver PI is not connected to the cloud."

"The initial setup is a little complex. The users are not able to install the prerequisite drivers or are not able to follow the SOP because they don't have access to SAP Logon. If users already have access, it will take seven to 10 days to deploy the solution. If they do not, it may take a maximum of 25 to 30 days."

"It needs more improvement in terms of user-friendliness. SAP wasn't user-friendly at all."

"The product documentation can be improved."

"SAP NetWeaver should be better integrated with other products outside of SAP."

"The initial setup was not very easy."

"The solution needs to better integrate Salesforce. It is a key player in the market and a lot of companies are looking for a lot more integration around it."

More SAP NetWeaver cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is not so high."

"You pay nothing for licensing, because the commercial model is a subscription. Other environments, such as QA and Development, are included in the subscription"

"Much better than Oracle SOA Suite."

"SAP NetWeaver requires a license, but I'm not sure how the licenses and payments were coordinated."

"It's a very expensive solution."

"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing a nine to ten since it is an expensive solution."

"The licensing costs are on a yearly basis."
