Head of Department ERP at The Singareni Collieries Company Limited
Consistently beneficial with excellent accessibility although support's response time needs improvement
The features and functions of the SAP Cloud Platform are very good; the performance is improved when compared with the older versions. Earlier, we were using Oracle DB, and after HANA DB migration, it is fine. We are getting the reports, and processing time is also reduced. Almost all the features of the SAP Cloud Platform are fine and good. SAP Fiori has also entered into the picture, and we are developing the Fiori apps. We have started with the BTP for the new innovations as per the SAP roadmap. The main benefits of the SAP Cloud Platform for us are that earlier we had the primary data center at our place, but now we have shifted to the cloud. The maintenance is free for us; the maintenance is completely done by this SAP partnership with Cloud4C. We have started using the SAP Analytics Cloud, and we have developed many applications for SAP SAC. We are going to give the presentation to our chairman most probably next week. The analytics features positively influence decision-making for us. The SAP Cloud Platform has been effective for us because the processing time is reduced, and we can access it easily.

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

"I rate the solution's scalability an eight out of ten. My company has 800 users."
"The ability to build custom applications on the BTP platform, reducing customization on the SAP HANA system and improving performance and management."
"The product is very stable."
"The product captures data in real time."
"Its integration with SAP solutions is impressive, so if you have applications that utilize SAP data, the SAP Cloud Platform is pretty good."
"SAP Cloud Platform's most valuable features are its exhaustiveness, scalability with minimum maintenance, and functionality."
"Cloud Platform's stability is great."
"SAP is quite a good company with good quality products, and I am confident this product is really good for the customers' business in order to integrate their businesses in the cloud environment."
"The technical support is extremely helpful, and they have a very good support team."
"If you are looking for a great PaaS product, don't hesitate to check Jelastic!"

"Technical support from Jelastic is very good."
"The advanced level of production-ready Docker hosting, one-click application deployment, and the truly flexible pricing."
"The dynamic vertical scaling is a unique feature."
"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."
 

Cons

"I feel that SAP provides the tools, but after that, you are left on your own. It would be better if they provided more support throughout the usage of their solutions."
"Reporting is confusing. There are three or four areas. One is the 4HANA SAP, then BPC reporting."
"The areas I think this solution should improve are monitoring and adapting."
"SAP Cloud Platform should improve on integrating third-party applications with S/4HANA."
"Planning features are limited to the finance module."
"While it was good for a small entity, it was not ideal for a large enterprise."
"I'd like to see more local integration."
"In the next release, I would like to see improvements with the price and the licensing."
"For now, some customers are requesting support of Docker containers for Windows."
"The backup functionality needs to be improved."
"The security layers also need to be improved because there is no clear layer or tier of security in the solution."
"An S3 like storage system, if they have a s3 API compatible system I can move my files from AWS."
"I would like to see better integration into enterprise storage products."
"For now, some customers are requesting support of Docker containers for Windows."
"The backup functionality needs to be improved."
"Lacks better integration into enterprise storage products."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I discovered that the SAP Cloud Platform is affordable, contrary to the impression that it's expensive. The pricing for extra packages or messages is quite reasonable, especially for things like message throughput and processing."
"SAP Cloud Platform Integration is an expensive product. I rate its pricing an eight out of ten."
"SAP Cloud Platform costs $2 to $5 per hour, while I found other platforms way more affordable. You have to pay per use, though that's fine because that means the cost is flexible."
"The pricing can be negotiated."
"The product's pricing varies and depends on the customers' needs."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a nine out of ten."
"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."
"Pricing for providers is revenue-shared based. Providers should invest in hardware to set up the Jelastic cluster."
"I would rate the cost 3 out of 5. There are additional costs other than licensing fees."
