Executive SummaryUpdated on Dec 19, 2024

WhereScape RED and SAP Analytics Hub are both prominent products in the domain of data management and analytics. SAP Analytics Hub appears to have the upper hand with its extensive data discovery and integration capabilities, offering a more comprehensive solution despite its higher cost.

Features:WhereScape RED provides efficient data modeling, automates ETL processes, and enhances data warehouse deployment with reduced manual coding. It supports multiple target update methods and design methodologies. SAP Analytics Hub excels in data integration, real-time analytics, and seamless integration with other SAP products. It offers a user-friendly interface and effective data consistency management.

Room for Improvement:WhereScape RED could improve its documentation capabilities and adapt to diverse customer requirements more efficiently. There is a need for more extensive customization options and integration with newer data platforms. SAP Analytics Hub's deployment complexity could be reduced, and enhancements in documentation and direct customer support would help users better utilize its resources. Simplifying its pricing model and offering more flexible licensing arrangements could also improve user experience.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service:WhereScape RED is praised for its straightforward deployment and effective customer support, allowing for quick integration into existing environments.

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.

Quick to set up, flexible, and stable

The scheduling part I don't like due to the fact that it allows you to schedule as a parent and child and other things, however, the error trackability has to be a little more user-friendly. It's also not user-friendly in the sense that it loads all the jobs and there are not enough filters so that it doesn't need to load everything. If the job fails, you don't get any type of alert or email. It would be ideal if there was some sort of automated alert message. Technical support isn't the best. It would be ideal if we understood how to do it in a card exception regarding exclusion, where the card is captured separately rather than filling the whole process on the data inbound side. Certain workloads like this are organized in such a way where you seem to be doubling the work as opposed to streamlining the process.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The platform's main benefit is its integration with SAP ERP data. It’s effective for data integration and integrity."

"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."

"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."

"Data consistency is also a notable feature; the system takes care of data consistency, so you don't need to handle it manually."

"This product provides good reports using a single pane of glass."

"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."

"I found the initial setup very easy."

"I like the data vault implementations."

"Their support staff are very knowledgeable, courteous, and professional. I feel their support staff go above and beyond to assure their customers are satisfied."

"This is a fantastically robust DW tool that will make you at least 10 times faster in producing a DW."

"RED generates comprehensive documentation and regenerates it as quickly as things changes, but it also provides impact documentation."

"Support is absolutely excellent, efficient, and timely."

"Data transformations and rollups are easy to accomplish."

"Naturally produces a way to easily debug your DW data solutions."

Cons

"The platform could easily integrate with other ERP data solutions. Additionally, it should be faster compared to competitors in the cloud space."

"The technical support for Analytics Hub is limited and could be improved."

"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. SAP has some cloud analytics and they're trying to configure it in Lumira, but it's not that good at this point."

"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."

"Faster implementation of new functions for the new product is an area of improvement in SAP Analytics Hub."

"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 interface can be simplified because it is not a user-friendly experience."

"Technical support isn't the best."

"They need a more robust support center. It has been a bit difficult to find solutions to problems that are out-of-the-box."

"It could use a tool to diagnose what is missing from the environment for WhereScape to install successfully."

"No support for change data capture or delta detection - that must be custom coded ."

"The scheduled jobs which are run by the WhereScape scheduler seem to be a strangely separate animal. Unlike all other WhereScape objects, jobs cannot be added to WhereScape projects. Also, unlike all other objects, jobs also cannot be deleted using a WhereScape deployment application."

"Project-based searching of data objects in the data warehouse browser needs to be improved."

"Customization could be better."

"Improve the object renaming ability (it works, but it could be more automated)."

More WhereScape RED cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is expensive."

"It is an expensive solution."

"The pricing is reasonable."

"They are pursuing a highly assertive approach to target businesses of all sizes within the industry."

"ROI is at least 10 times."

"Our company purchased a corporate unlimited license."

"Factor in the price of specialized consulting who know this product. They're hard to find and expensive."

"Speed to market of a warehouse solution at a relatively inexpensive price point."
