QA Manager at Synechron
AI coding assistant has transformed development speed and supports learning new languages
Any technology comes with two things, or rather anything in this world has both sides, good and bad. LLMs also have the same thing. The bad part is for a person who is 100% dependent on AI because they won't be able to learn more if they are 100% dependent on that. The main thing is that there has to be restraint from our side. I won't say it is from the tool side, but from our side, we need to learn and we need to work on it. We need to review the code. That is one thing that we need to do from our end. From a technology perspective, it is designed to help us out, and it is totally on our side of thinking about how exactly we are going to use that. There is not any area for improvement from the tool side, but it is from the users altogether. Users should not be 100% reliant on AI or any LLMs. They need to work on it and they need to review the code.

Helpful dashboard, supports offline capabilities for SAP, professional support, and a simple pricing model
I believe that this is the only product in the market that truly supports offline capabilities in an SAP environment. We have people going through all of their shifts without connectivity, yet it automatically later synchronizes well with SAP, without creating extra documents or anything like that. The ability to take ABAP code and automatically convert it to a mobile app and then adjust it to our needs is something that I haven't seen in any other low-code solution on the market, and it has been life-changing for us. I love how easy it is to manage the design of the process using drag and drop. I know they are working to make the developer experience even better, and I'm very excited about it. The modernizer element that converts existing ABAP business logic to the cloud-native mobile-friendly solution is a very powerful tool that I haven't seen in the market.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution's most valuable features are context awareness, multi language support, integration with popular IDs like Visual Studio Code or JetBrains, and reduced coding time."
"The product's most valuable feature is vulnerability management features."
"Initially, OpenAI is free, but you'll need to pay for it later."
"The most valuable aspects in terms of features, revolve around its code generation capabilities."
"GitHub CoPilot has good stability and performance."
"GitHub Copilot can improve productivity by up to 40%, especially for experienced developers. Senior developers often spend more time reviewing code, which can make the code review process a bit longer."
"In terms of understanding user queries and providing code that aligns with my expectations, there is room for improvement."
"GitHub Copilot code suggestion capabilities are always good."
"I love how they took the MIT Scratch concept and implemented it into the in-app backend. It makes the app creation so much more intuitive and easy to use."
"I believe that this is the only product in the market that truly supports offline capabilities in an SAP environment."
 

Cons

"Sometimes it requires multiple iterations to get the code I need, like for creating a login page with specific buttons and logic."
"There is a lot of hallucination happening in GitHub CoPilot sometimes; on one side, it provides production-grade environment code, but on the other side, it lacks understanding the context of what I tell it and hallucinates a lot."
"The problem arises when a bot is not well-designed, which frustrates customers."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"It cannot be fully depended on to build every component and run a large enterprise application without significant human intervention."
"While I don't see immediate room for improvement, one suggestion is for Copilot to provide specific suggestions for certain lines of code instead of rewriting entire sections."
"There are no extensions provided by the product for Eclipse."
"If the tool could focus on specific lines where changes are suggested, it would save time and reduce server load."
"While we're not in a place of letting LOB analysts build apps, at some point, we may want to give them a bit more freedom - as long as we can limit their ability to harm the ERP data. I would like to see more tools pertaining to this area."
"The modernizer element should convert a higher percentage of the ABAP code, moving it from approximately 75%, closer to 100%."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is reasonable. I think it is 10 USD per user."
"We have a license but need another one for the GitHub CoPilot tool."
"A personal license is priced at ten dollars per month, while a professional or enterprise license costs nineteen dollars per user, and these rates are consistent for all users."
"GitHub Copilot is a paid service, costing approximately $6 per month. There might be a free trial available."
"GitHub CoPilot comes readily available for enterprise customers, so it's a free add-on if you already have GitHub's enterprise license."
"There is a need to pay around 10 USD to be able to use the solution."
"The product offers a free version and a paid version. Whether to choose the product's free version or paid version depends on the size of the company where it will be used."
"We have a demo license. Once we understand what we'll do, we'll start with a paid license."
"It is straightforward consumption based on the number of end-users."
