Featured Reviews

Frederic Hautecoeur - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior System Integrations Architect at bs-team
Event-based data exchange has improved integrations but analytics and support remain weak
SAP Cloud Platform is a strong part of their offering. They are very poor in the analytics area. You do not have much available. If you want to have analytics, you have to do everything yourself. Everything is very expensive, so it is not helping with the infrastructure costs. There is a lot of latency and glitches. The support is very difficult and not really helpful. The fact is you are completely losing control of the infrastructure. If something bad happens, there is nothing you can really do. You have to ask the support and the support will answer when they want or when they can.

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

"It’s great that we have the entire suite of SAP at our fingertips."
"One of the best features of this solution is that it is web-based and you can log in and work on it from anywhere."
"The maintenance part can be outsourced easily."
"The pre-delivered content from the SAP cloud platform is definitely a strength."
"The mobile access capability is very beneficial."
"It has improved our speed to bring our mobile applications into productive use in a cost-effective way."
"The solution is very stable and reliable, and interruptions from a third party or our server are easily identified."
"SAP Cloud Platform's most valuable features are its exhaustiveness, scalability with minimum maintenance, and functionality."
"The advanced level of production-ready Docker hosting, one-click application deployment, and the truly flexible pricing."
"We almost don't have to maintain our servers."
"If you are looking for a great PaaS product, don't hesitate to check Jelastic!"
"The control is valuable. It's really easy to use and you have good control of your solutions."
"Technical support from Jelastic is very good."
"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."
"Jelastic is exactly what we expect from a PaaS vendor: easy-to-start, easy-to-manage, container based technology, support for vertical and horizontal auto-scaling, and all this without vendor lock-in."
 

Cons

"The cost when it comes to monitoring can be difficult. We have to be very, very careful and aware of any changes so the price won't go up too much."
"Better connectivity to on-premise systems would help us to support older systems that are migrating to the cloud."
"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 solution's document management system on the cloud is a bit slow, and document uploading takes time."
"I can’t speak to features that may be missing."
"SAP Cloud Platform's installation is not straightforward. You need a person with knowledge to handle it."
"I want to see better pricing from the SAP Cloud Platform in the future. I also want more security and scalability from it."
"The product could be improved for consistent user interfaces."
"The backup features need improvement, or rather it should be added, as I could not find it."
"The backup functionality needs to be improved."
"I would like to see better integration into enterprise storage products."
"An S3 like storage system, if they have a s3 API compatible system I can move my files from AWS."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"SAP Cloud Platform is generally more expensive than the other options."
"SAP Cloud Platform Integration is an expensive product. I rate its pricing an eight out of ten."
"The product's pricing varies and depends on the customers' needs."
"Licensing costs for this solution are based on the number of users and the bandwidth."
"SAP Cloud Platform is an expensive solution."
"Cost-wise, I'm unsure of how expensive the SAP Cloud Platform is."
"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."
"The solution is worth the money."
"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."
