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

"With the multi-tenant architecture, you can migrate many databases to one instance. This saves a lot of money and administrative work."
"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."
"The integration flows are the most valuable feature of this solution."
"SAP Cloud Platform's most valuable features are its exhaustiveness, scalability with minimum maintenance, and functionality."
"It’s great that we have the entire suite of SAP at our fingertips."
"The most valuable feature is the data synchronization, or the push and pull of the data."
"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 product is very stable."
"The solution is very useful and interactive with a dashboard for viewing other interfaces."
"The features I found most valuable are the integration options."
 

Cons

"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."
"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."
"There is a lot of room for improvement in customer service and support. The availability of knowledgeable support to the implementation partners and the customers could be better."
"What I would like to see improved is the learning curve."
"The solution requires more flexibility overall."
"The tool's reliability is a disappointment for us."
"My impression of the stability is that it is not good. Almost every month there is something new and that makes us nervous about delivery."
"The product needs improvement for serverless native integrations. They should opt for serverless features as all the customers worldwide choose cloud-based products."
"I've observed a few bugs in SAP. One recent bug I found in Content Modifier is that when using a predefined header to call the current date, it prints the previous date. These are small bugs I found."
"The price of the solution could improve."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the pricing two on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"Oracle Developer Cloud Service isn't an expensive product. It's definitely cheaper than any other enterprise cloud solution."
"Licensing costs for this solution are based on the number of users and the bandwidth."
"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."
"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 product's pricing varies and depends on the customers' needs."
"SAP Cloud Platform is generally more expensive than the other options."
"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."
"The solution is worth the money."
"SAP Cloud Platform Integration is an expensive product. I rate its pricing an eight out of ten."
