Principal Solution Architect at a comms service provider with 51-200 employees
A highly scalable and flexible solution that has excellent workflows and provides fast technical support
I am satisfied with the product. The documentation is getting better. I rate the documentation a six out of ten. We use the capability of this product to use other products like IBM to move data. The solution's workflows are its best feature. The tool is workflow-based and is very useful for integration. It is a hub for our clients. It is very useful.

Integration has become more robust and seamless
SAP Data Services is mainly used for extraction of data, and it works with all databases. The flows and everything are configured effectively. One of the most valuable features is that it is integrated. Compared to the past, it is much more robust and easier to use. The only issue is that documentation is not up to the mark. The data quality management features support our business because we can fetch anything based on the requirements. Before, we used to have a tough time getting data, but now, with HANA and all these tools, it is seamless.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The tool has good scalability and flexibility."
"Its integration capabilities and the data migration capabilities are the most valuable. It is very good for SAP and non-SAP tools. It has very good integration with SAP, but it also has the capabilities to connect to other systems. We find it very helpful and stable."
"The initial setup is not complex."
"The user interface is ok."
"The feature of SAP Data Services has enhanced our company's business processes because we are able to run around 800 jobs in areas like data extraction and transaction objects."
"It's easy to understand and deploy. It's easy to create new applications, and depending on the complexity of the application, it is easy to deploy the new requirements."
"Data Services' best features are its robustness and plug-and-play integration with other SAP applications."
"The most valuable features of the solution are extraction and data transformations."
"I appreciate having access to the SAP data."
 

Cons

"There are not many consultants who know the product."
"The migration of the solution between different environments is quite complex."
"The interface is not quite user-friendly and is in need of improvement."
"Scheduling of jobs in the sequence is not available. It's a very tedious process to do that particular task. If there was a tool to schedule in the sequence that would be extremely helpful."
"The description of error messages isn't extensive, although they point to the problem. With other solutions, like Talend, I was able to use the debugger to get directly to the problem, but with SAP Data Services the debugger is not working. I'm not sure if it's a problem with the version specifically, but I'm using it in an enterprise environment and I can't do an upgrade."
"An area for improvement in SAP Data Services could involve making the product more accessible to non-technical end-users."
"They could make it easier to work with web services."
"The pricing of the solution should be improved."
"The solution could improve the overall features. There is a lot that can be done in the solution, therefor there are areas where it can improve. Additionally, there is a need to make it easier for one to create connections to other non-SAP systems. The flexibility to connect to other non-SAP systems is needed."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is aligned with other products."
"Its pricing is as per the enterprise agreement and not a concern for us."
"The enterprise version of SAP Data Services is free."
"At the entry level, if you're using it only for data integration, it is a little bit cheap. However, for large organizations it can be expensive. There are additional costs apart from the license."
"The license price is expensive but medium to large-scale companies, should be able to afford it. Other solutions, such as Talend are easier to afford for smaller companies. Depending on the sources of the data where you are receiving your data you could be paying for more than one license."
"It's relatively expensive compared to other vendors, but it is competitive."
"The pricing is a little high to make the product more competetive in the marketplace."
"Speaking about prices, Oracle and SAP are market leaders. So, the prices are more."
"The price is very reasonable."
