We performed a comparison between Oracle SOA Cloud Service, Oracle SOA Suite, and SAP NetWeaver based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Oracle, SAP, Aurea and others in SOA Governance."It automated the way we did system integrations. Now, information is available on different systems to the correct people."
"There are adapters which make it easier to build integrations between different technologies."
"I like the amount of technology that is involved in the Oracle SOA Suite."
"I found the adapters to be most useful."
"Provides connectivity between discrete systems and has availability."
"We were able to scale out using multiple application and web servers balanced by hardware load balancers and Weblogic clustering."
"Enables our Product Manager to post products to different outside EC platforms with only one interface and one process."
"Conceptually, how it integrates a lot of essential enterprise process components. That's the most valuable."
"The product provides transparency in finances."
"The solution's XSLT or XSL Transformation feature was very useful."
"The product allows you to visualize how a company is working currently by providing rich possibilities for analysis such as the audit trails and therefore shows where improvements might be valuable."
"It provides an efficient integration framework with other SAP products."
"The most valuable feature of SAP NetWeaver is the integration and it is a complete solution."
"It is the central point for all our data storage. We have one single version of the truth that we can communicate to all our customers."
"We strongly rely on our SAP data. We need access to the information to analyze it, so the solution allows us to make use of the data that we get from SAP. This is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The integration feature is valuable."
"The flexibility and the customizability this solution has when adapting to our business requirements is a huge benefit."
"What's most valuable in SAP NetWeaver is the integration. That's been very helpful because the company has one thousand five hundred interfaces running, so integration has been the most significant factor. I've also seen many improvements in the SAP NetWeaver user experience, where users can have reports delivered to mobile devices."
"The system is very unstable, and any modifications to the server or in the application can make the whole system stop."
"As PaaS solution in the cloud, it should be easy to maintain this solution."
"The Oracle SOA Suite could be simplified."
"The initial setup is complex. Many solutions out-of-the-box did not work as expected. The documentation provided Is particularly poor."
"It's also not developer-friendly."
"Other solutions might be better componets such as Salesforce."
"Its function options can be improved."
"The interface is too complicated. Making modifications still requires too much technical knowledge."
"I want to see easier integration connections with other cloud-based tools."
"They supply lots of documentation but finding what we need is challenging at times."
"Various parts of SOA, BPEL, and so on, each have their own consoles which need to be accessed individually with different logins. It would be better from an admin perspective if all the consoles were accessible via a single login."
"An important area that can be improved is the product's data monitoring. When we use the solution for interfacing or end-to-end data monitoring, we want to know exactly where the data is going and exactly where it is failing, or where there is an issue."
"It needs more improvement in terms of user-friendliness. SAP wasn't user-friendly at all."
"It can always improve. It should have the ability to connect with other databases. It was a little bit tough to do that. I would like to have the ability to research certain markets and then integrate it with NetWeaver. I'd like to compare it with other databases from other companies being used in the world so we can integrate it with our own products to compare if we are still current on the market."
"SAP NetWeaver it's still complex for a normal user unless you memorize those action codes."
"The initial setup was not very easy."
"Technical support response time was slow."
"The solution needs to better integrate Salesforce. It is a key player in the market and a lot of companies are looking for a lot more integration around it."
"SAP is likely transitioning to S4, so it is unlikely that they will continue to use NetWeaver."
"Scalability would be a good improvement in future releases, if they do release future versions. They tried to create a seamless style, but it's not necessarily scalable to big development environments that we're trying to achieve."
