Integration and security have improved, but search functionality and clarity of future direction need enhancement
The search function in SAP Analytics Hub is not effective. When speaking about integration with various analytic sources, for example, if I wanted to send the data from SAP BW or B4HANA to a data lake, we used to earlier use the Open Data Hub or Analytics Hub. Nowadays, we are using the Data Sphere integrators available with Amazon, Azure, and Google Cloud. The search capability could be better, and SAP needs to come out with a clear roadmap for the solution going ahead, as they have not yet provided that.

User-friendly interface facilitates efficient data migration and reduces operational overhead
Its usability and ease of use are standout features. It is really easy to use - almost too easy at times. Users don't have to be experts to use their tool set and utilize the clicking mechanisms, drop down boxes, and other features to build a package and run it. The configuration is very easy and the system is very stable. I would rate it at a 10 as it is highly reliable; we have never had any problems with it. Very little maintenance is required on my side. While you need to keep the product up to date, the maintenance requirements are minimal. SSIS integrates with all Microsoft tools seamlessly. We have used it against Oracle, DB2 and SQL. It integrates and can move data around from any data platforms, making it very diverse in that standpoint. It is a very robust tool that can work with many data sources, and its main strength is that it is extremely easy to use.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This product provides good reports using a single pane of glass."
"SAP Analytics Hub offers a user-friendly interface with effortless configuration, seamless updates, and real-time availability of information. It avoids the complexities associated with batch processing, providing a smooth and efficient experience."
"Another good thing about SAP is that it has powerful tools like the SAP Data View and HANA and BO configuration, which will always give you better results with any type of data and any amount of data within a short time."
"Data consistency is also a notable feature; the system takes care of data consistency, so you don't need to handle it manually."
"As a partner, I can mention something positive about SAP Analytics Hub: its products are tightly integrated, so the business context of data is retained in the analytics solution, and that's the main advantage."
"For report scheduling, I always prefer SAP because it has the most powerful scheduling features, like sending reports to more than 1,000 customers per day. That option is not as good in Microsoft BI and in Tableau it only exists as an add-on option."
"What I like best about this solution is that it is built into the SAP line, making it easier to integrate with other SAP products."
"What I like best about this solution is that it is built into the SAP line, making it easier to integrate with other SAP products."
"SSIS' best feature is SFTP connectivity."
"SSIS is a tool which anybody can learn in no time."
"SSIS is an easy way to do data integration from various data sources; it doesn't matter whether it's a database, flat files, XML, or Web API, it can talk to them and join them all together."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the fast insert and fuzzy logic matching."
"Its compatibility with Microsoft products has been very valuable to our company. It fits well within the architecture."
"We use this solution for ETL, which includes data summation and cleaning."
"SSIS' most valuable feature is its reporting services."
"The interface is very user-friendly."
 

Cons

"The technical support for Analytics Hub is limited and could be improved."
"The technical support for Analytics Hub is limited and could be improved."
"Faster implementation of new functions for the new product is an area of improvement in SAP Analytics Hub."
"The analytics part of SAP has not been that good up until now; they're still in the infant stage and development is still going on."
"Pricing and support are integrated into the system. However, the support process can be challenging, particularly when navigating the SAP support site, which lacks user-friendliness and ease of access."
"The platform could easily integrate with other ERP data solutions. Additionally, it should be faster compared to competitors in the cloud space."
"The search capability could be better, and SAP needs to come out with a clear roadmap for the solution going ahead, as they have not yet provided that."
"The interface can be simplified because it is not a user-friendly experience."
"I haven't found too many successful scaling options and that's something that could be improved."
"The UI could use refinement."
"It needs more integration tools, so you can connect to different sources."
"There were some issues when we tried to connect it to data storage."
"It is an easy solution but needs some improvement. The creation of the measure in the DAC's model could be improved."
"It's difficult to refactor SSIS. It gets cumbersome to reuse the solution."
"The solution could improve on integrating with other types of data sources."
"This may be done, but upgrades to new versions required re-implementing each package."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is an expensive solution."
"The product is expensive."
"They are pursuing a highly assertive approach to target businesses of all sizes within the industry."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"This solution has provided an inexpensive tool, and it is easy to find experienced developers."
"My advice is to look at what your configuration will be because most companies have their own deals with Microsoft."
"It would be beneficial if the solution had a less costly cloud offering."
"We have an enterprise license for this solution."
"Our license with SSIS is annual."
"If you don't want to pay a lot of money, you can go for SSIS, as its open-source version is available. When it comes to licensing, SSIS can be expensive."
"The solution is economical. You don't have to worry about the pricing as long as you're installing both services on the same server."
"t's incredibly cost effective, easy to learn the basics quickly (although like all ETL tools requires the traditional learning curve to get good at) and has an immense user base."
