Pros

More Caspio Pros →

"The product is very stable.""It is a stable solution, as I never encountered issues when using it.""The HANA replications are very useful.""Scalability is one of the benefits that we have in using the product.""The most valuable feature is the data synchronization, or the push and pull of the data.""It's suitable for various sizes of companies. I have used it with big companies and with small ones as well.""One of the best features of this solution is that it is web-based and you can log in and work on it from anywhere.""The most valuable features of SAP Cloud Platform are security integration and scalability."

More SAP Cloud Platform Pros →

Cons
"The visualization of the data pages could be improved. You have to a lot of tweaking to make the visualization stand out. It's basic, but there are a lot of options. So you really have to do a lot of customizing on that part. They could add some templates that are more attractive than the basic ones. It would be helpful if you could start with something that's already built rather than working on standard templates from scratch."

More Caspio Cons →

"The tool's UI is not very intuitive for cloud integration, so it needs research to understand its options and how it may work.""When they innovate too fast, they end up confusing their customers.""I can’t speak to features that may be missing.""Lacks flexibility in its licensing structure.""The main problem is that there aren't any easy migrations from SAP PO to SAP CPI, so from process orchestration to cloud platform integration.""Better connectivity to on-premise systems would help us to support older systems that are migrating to the cloud.""In the next release, I would like to see improvements with the price and the licensing.""Planning features are limited to the finance module."

Pricing and Cost Advice
Information Not Available
  • "Licensing costs for this solution are based on the number of users and the bandwidth."
  • "SAP's pricing is usually high compared to the competition. But this is also justified because they hold their products and services to quite high standards."
  • "The pricing can be negotiated."
  • "The cost when it comes to monitoring can be difficult."
  • "SAP offers yearly, subscription-based, and pay-as-you-use licensing."
  • "Cost-wise, I'm unsure of how expensive the SAP Cloud Platform is."
  • "SAP Cloud Platform costs $2 to $5 per hour, while I found other platforms way more affordable. You have to pay per use, though that's fine because that means the cost is flexible."
  • "The price of the solution depends on the package that is purchased. There are many packages to choose from. The packages are not overly expensive."
