Mehdi Hasankhan - PeerSpot reviewer
An easy-to-install tool with good technical support that offers features like map searching and risk management services
The initial setup of Oracle Developer Cloud Service was really easy since it can be done with the request in the cloud, and after that, you can use it directly. I read the initial setup a ten, on a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy. The solution is deployed on a public cloud. The deployment process took around a year.
PinakiGhosh - PeerSpot reviewer
The implementation cycle has been reduced significantly but has room for integration enhancements
Our existing customers who are on ECC are on-premises. They are migrating to SAP Cloud Platform, specifically on S4HANA.  One of our clients was on SAP ECC on-premises, and they are moving to the cloud on S4HANA on the public cloud system.  We are supporting about 15 customers, mostly small to…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The APEX solution is the most interesting part of the Oracle Developer Service. APEX is the most cost-effective and most popular service for developers. Kubernetes and Docker services are also important and very much cost-effective, and helpful for developers. If we compare Oracle to other cloud services providers, they'll also be cost-effective. The financial involvement is also a good point because other cloud services charge for Docker and Kubernetes solutions. Oracle's offering is almost free. They only charge for the VM or virtual machine. This is also an interesting part for the developers as well."
"The solution's technical support is really good."
"With the multi-tenant architecture, you can migrate many databases to one instance. This saves a lot of money and administrative work."
"The solution can scale."
"The solution is very useful and interactive with a dashboard for viewing other interfaces."
"SAP has provided very good support."
"SAP Cloud Platform allows flexibility in integrating with other applications and supports customizations."
"The most valuable features of the SAP Cloud Platform are the extensions and integrations. Additionally, there are a lot of AI-based microservices."
"It's suitable for various sizes of companies. I have used it with big companies and with small ones as well."
"Improved our speed to bring our mobile applications into productive use in a cost-effective way."
"Cloud Platform's stability is great."
 

Cons

"Sometimes, I lose the cursor in the editor, and it disappears for no reason. It's hard to guess where I'm in the text, and I feel a bit lost."
"t would be better if the open-source databases were managed. Some managed services for open-source databases are available in other cloud solutions, but Oracle doesn't have any. They should provision more managed services for open-source databases like MongoDB and PostgreSQL. These types of managed database services should be available in Oracle Cloud Service and others. There are other technical issues like the CDN network that is not directly configured to Oracle and needs support from a third party. There are also some services available in AWS and Azure that should be included in Oracle Cloud Service."
"Improvements are needed in terms of the usage of the map chart and risk management services."
"Planning features are limited to the finance module."
"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."
"SAP Cloud Platform's installation is not straightforward. You need a person with knowledge to handle it."
"I'd like to see more local integration."
"We need to connect our ERP solution via the VPN. We need to make sure our ERP solutions aren't exposed to the outside world. Our teams really struggle with this."
"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."
"The tool's UI is not very intuitive for cloud integration, so it needs research to understand its options and how it may work."
"I want to see better pricing from the SAP Cloud Platform in the future. I also want more security and scalability from it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Oracle Developer Cloud Service isn't an expensive product. It's definitely cheaper than any other enterprise cloud solution."
"I rate the pricing two on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a nine out of ten."
"The cost when it comes to monitoring can be difficult."
"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."
"SAP Cloud Platform is an expensive solution."
"Licensing costs for this solution are based on the number of users and the bandwidth."
"Cost-wise, I'm unsure of how expensive the SAP Cloud Platform is."
"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."
"The solution is worth the money."
