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…
Miguel Maloney Thompson - PeerSpot reviewer
A scalable and stable solution that has good scalability and is easy to setup
It is a scalable solution. I have yet to have a scenario regarding automatic scale and if there's an increase in resource requirement or need. We have yet to have that scenario. We have yet to test that. The scalability was more than manually adjusting and increasing whatever I had to do. I rate it eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is integration."
"The entire SAP ecosystem is a valuable feature. It provides access to SAP S/4HANA, ACG systems, and their Fiori launchpad, making it easy to navigate between them. This makes the enterprise very accessible."
"The ability to expand it whenever required has been great — it's very simple."
"SAP is an excellent company with an excellent reputation, excellent products, and dedicated customer support."
"The maintenance part can be outsourced easily."
"The ability to build custom applications on the BTP platform, reducing customization on the SAP HANA system and improving performance and management."
"It’s easy to maintain, as everything is handled by SAP."
"Improved our speed to bring our mobile applications into productive use in a cost-effective way."
"The advanced level of production-ready Docker hosting, one-click application deployment, and the truly flexible pricing."
"Technical support from Jelastic is very good."
"The control is valuable. It's really easy to use and you have good control of your solutions."
"The solution is scalable, and that is what we are looking at. There is no learning curve as we have not done much research."
"The dynamic vertical scaling is a unique feature."
 

Cons

"The tool's reliability is a disappointment for us."
"SAP Cloud Platform should improve on integrating third-party applications with S/4HANA."
"While it was good for a small entity, it was not ideal for a large enterprise."
"The main problem is that there aren't any easy migrations from SAP PO to SAP CPI, so from process orchestration to cloud platform integration."
"The product's support team has certain shortcomings, not from the solution's portal perspective but from the back-end side."
"I can’t speak to features that may be missing."
"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."
"Speaking about the public cloud, it's a very rigid system. So, there is not a lot of customization possible in a public cloud environment."
"Lacks better integration into enterprise storage products."
"The security layers also need to be improved because there is no clear layer or tier of security in the solution."
"For now, some customers are requesting support of Docker containers for Windows."
"The backup features need improvement, or rather it should be added, as I could not find it."
"The backup functionality needs to be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing costs for this solution are based on the number of users and the bandwidth."
"The cost when it comes to monitoring can be difficult."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is a high price, and ten is a low price, I rate the pricing a six or seven."
"SAP provides good discounts."
"SAP Cloud Platform is generally more expensive than the other options."
"The price of the solution depends on the package that is purchased. There are many packages to choose from. The packages are not overly expensive."
"SAP Cloud Platform is an expensive solution."
"SAP Cloud Platform is expensive. It can be quite costly."
"I would rate the cost 3 out of 5. There are additional costs other than licensing fees."
"Pricing for providers is revenue-shared based. Providers should invest in hardware to set up the Jelastic cluster."
