BigQuery vs SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse comparison

"The initial setup is simple."

"It's pretty stable. It's fast, and it is able to go through large quantities of data pretty quickly."

"What I like most about BigQuery is that it's fast and flexible. Another advantage of BigQuery is that it's easy to learn."

"BigQuery processes a substantial amount of data, whether in gigabytes or terabytes, swiftly producing desired data within one or two minutes."

"BigQuery's querying capabilities are very optimized for large datasets."

"One of the most significant advantages lies in the decoupling of storage and compute which allows to independently scale storage and compute resources, with the added benefit of extremely cost-effective storage akin to object storage solutions."

"This solution is highly scalable."

"The most valuable features of this solution, in my opinion, are speed and performance, as well as cost-effectiveness."

"It is a robust system."

"Transformation is a valuable feature of SAP NetWeaver. I can transform the data as per my needs or my client's needs. For example, flat tables can be transformed with respect to our requirements to combine multiple modules into one single table, and we can derive analytics."

"A robust and efficient product."

"Data modeling is a valuable feature."

"The security and audit procedures are the most valuable features."

"It's an excellent over-all tool for managers to analyze their business."

"It provides us with proof of data, we can centralize all of the information, check it, and then provide the information to our users."

"It would be beneficial to integrate additional tools, particularly from a business intelligence perspective."

"The product’s performance could be much faster."

"Instead of connecting directly to BigQuery, we connect to GCP, Cloud Run, and then to BigQuery, which is a long process."

"The primary hurdle in this migration lies in the initial phase of moving substantial volumes of data to cloud-based platforms."

"The processing capability can be an area of improvement."

"When I execute a query, the dashboard doesn't always present the output seamlessly. Troubleshooting requires opening each pipeline individually, which is time-consuming."

"I understand that Snowflake has made some improvements on its end to further reduce costs, so I believe BigQuery can catch up."

"It can be slower and more problematic compared to other platforms such as Snowflake."

"There are performance issues in terms of scalability and availability."

"I think more integration with other applications would be perfect."

"Connectors are complex, and it is difficult to understand or know which connector should be used. For instance, if I want to connect APIs, I will not be able to do it directly. I would have to go to the portal integration to get the data. Therefore, having simplified connectors will make things much easier."

"The product could provide more features."

"Design and modeling could be simplified."

"It is difficult when your native language is not English. It is difficult for us to explain our issue and also difficult for the technical team to explain a resolution to us."

"The program is difficult to learn to use"

"One terabyte of data costs $20 to $22 per month for storage on BigQuery and $25 on Snowflake. Snowflake is costlier for one terabyte, but BigQuery charges based on how much data is inserted into the tables. BigQuery charges you based on the amount of data that you handle and not the time in which you handle it. This is why the pricing models are different and it becomes a key consideration in the decision of which platform to use."

"The price is a bit high but the technology is worth it."

"The tool has competitive pricing."

"The pricing is adaptable, ensuring that organizations can tailor their usage and costs based on their specific requirements and configurations within the Google Cloud Platform."

"The solution is pretty affordable and quite cheap in comparison to PDP or Cloudera."

"The pricing appears to be competitive for the intended usage scenarios we have in mind."

"The product’s pricing could be more flexible for end users."

"1 TB is free of cost monthly. If you use more than 1 TB a month, then you need to pay 5 dollars extra for each TB."

"Pricing is based on the number of user IDs and tyhe user ID works across a suite of products."

"All SAP products are expensive."

"The licensing cost is high for SAP NetWeaver compared to that for other products."
