Featured Reviews

VARUNKUMAR - PeerSpot reviewer
Mgr Value Chain Integration/EDI at a non-tech company with 10,001+ employees
Industry-leading, easy to implement, and has good mapping specification guidelines
The good thing about OpenText is that we have the mapping specification guideline available, which is not there in a solution like SEEBURGER. Whenever you want to take a decision to move away from OpenText, you have already documented your mapping and what your mapping looks like. So you go to the next provider, provide them with that mapping specification, and it'll be very easy for them to develop a new map instead of just taking the data - input data, output data - and then looking for how the data is getting transformed. So you have the mapping spec level which is a very good feature of OpenText, which we do not have in SEEBURGER. It's very hard to move from SEEBURGER. The solution is easy to implement. It's stable and reliable. They are the industry leaders in the integration space.
Frederic Hautecoeur - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior System Integrations Architect at bs-team
Event-based data exchange has improved integrations but analytics and support remain weak
SAP Cloud Platform is a strong part of their offering. They are very poor in the analytics area. You do not have much available. If you want to have analytics, you have to do everything yourself. Everything is very expensive, so it is not helping with the infrastructure costs. There is a lot of latency and glitches. The support is very difficult and not really helpful. The fact is you are completely losing control of the infrastructure. If something bad happens, there is nothing you can really do. You have to ask the support and the support will answer when they want or when they can.

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 easy to implement."
"The good thing about OpenText is that we have the mapping specification guideline available, which is not there in a solution like SEEBURGER."
"The pre-delivered content from the SAP cloud platform is definitely a strength."
"It's suitable for various sizes of companies. I have used it with big companies and with small ones as well."
"The product captures data in real time."
"The dashboard provides pretty good clarity."
"It’s very easy to use and integrate, especially with other SAP solutions."
"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."
"My advice to anyone who is doing such a thing right now is not to listen to the old reputation of SAP in terms of complexity and difficulty in deployment."
"It is a stable solution, as I never encountered issues when using it."
 

Cons

"Technical support needs to be better."
"Technical support isn't the greatest. The transparency is less than you sometimes need."
"For some of our customers, the product is too costly to purchase all the components or services."
"The source controller needs improvement. There are some disadvantages to it."
"The cost when it comes to monitoring can be difficult. We have to be very, very careful and aware of any changes so the price won't go up too much."
"SAP's technical support sometimes takes longer to respond."
"In the next release, I would like to see improvements with the price and the licensing."
"Planning features are limited to the finance module."
"The tool's reliability is a disappointment for us."
"Speaking about the public cloud, it's a very rigid system. So, there is not a lot of customization possible in a public cloud environment."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Licensing costs for this solution are based on the number of users and the bandwidth."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is a high price, and ten is a low price, I rate the pricing a six or seven."
"SAP provides good discounts."
"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."
"I discovered that the SAP Cloud Platform is affordable, contrary to the impression that it's expensive. The pricing for extra packages or messages is quite reasonable, especially for things like message throughput and processing."
"SAP Cloud Platform is expensive. It can be quite costly."
"The solution is worth the money."
"SAP Cloud Platform Integration is an expensive product. I rate its pricing an eight out of ten."
