Executive Summary

Review summaries and opinions

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

ROI

Sentiment score
6.7
SAP Data Services delivers 300% ROI, cuts costs and time, enhances data quality, and offers rapid deployment with advanced technology.
Sentiment score
7.2
SEEBURGER Business Integration Suite enhances efficiency, reduces headcount, and delivers cost savings through automation and integration, despite initial costs.
SAP is indeed good at all this now, with so many components such as SAP Signavio, SAP EINS, SAP Work Zone, SAP ALM, Cloud ALM, SAP public cloud, SAP private cloud, and BTP, all of which are essential to meet the latest cutting-edge technologies.
 

Customer Service

Sentiment score
6.7
SAP Data Services customer support is praised for technical expertise but criticized for response delays and limited language options.
Sentiment score
7.4
SEEBURGER's support is reliable with responsive service, though language and time-zone issues may affect personalization and customization speed.
If you keep a high priority issue, such as a production impact, they certainly come and address it in no time.
Unlike level one where they basically search for the notes and provide responses, level two and level three are much better.
I would rate my experience with the technical support of SEEBURGER Business Integration Suite as 10 out of 10.
The support provided by SEEBURGER is excellent.
 

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
7.4
SAP Data Services is highly scalable, effectively supporting varied enterprise sizes with excellent workload management and expansion ratings.
Sentiment score
7.4
SEEBURGER Business Integration Suite excels in scalability and flexibility, easily adapting to various business needs with cloud integration.
If I were to rate it from one to 10, I would say it has a nine to 10 for scalability.
The scalability depends primarily on the mapping itself, as the connection and file flow are in the cloud.
 

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
7.6
SAP Data Services is stable and reliable, with occasional crashes but generally user-friendly across various sectors, including telecom.
Sentiment score
8.0
SEEBURGER Business Integration Suite offers reliable stability, minimal issues, swift error handling, and near-perfect uptime with responsive support.
SEEBURGER Business Integration Suite is a very stable product, and I haven't noticed any significant drawbacks.
I would rate the stability of SEEBURGER Business Integration Suite as 9 out of 10.
 

Room For Improvement

SAP Data Services faces integration, performance, customization, and cost challenges, needing interface improvements and better multilingual and technical support.
SEEBURGER Business Integration Suite needs interface simplification, enhanced monitoring, better documentation, and improved cloud integration and cost models.
Now, they are coming up with many pricing options, which is tricky; they offer one thing for free, but charge for nine others.
The documentation is not up to the mark.
The cloud interface is currently too cluttered, especially when creating new transactions from scratch or performing search queries.
Acquiring training documents on a public domain for SEEBURGER is challenging.
 

Setup Cost

SAP Data Services pricing is high, appealing to enterprises, with costs influenced by licensing, maintenance, and usage-based models.
SEEBURGER's flexible licensing and comprehensive features offer competitive pricing, justifying its cost despite complexity for many organizations.
Regarding the pricing of SEEBURGER Business Integration Suite, I would rate it as 7 out of 10.
 

Valuable Features

SAP Data Services offers robust ETL, integration, data quality features, user-friendly interface, SQL support, and scalable connectivity.
SEEBURGER Business Integration Suite offers platform independence, strong EDI automation, seamless SAP integration, scalability, and comprehensive global B2B integration.
SAP is indeed good at all this now, with so many components such as SAP Signavio, SAP EINS, SAP Work Zone, SAP ALM, Cloud ALM, SAP public cloud, SAP private cloud, and BTP, all of which are essential to meet the latest cutting-edge technologies.
SAP Data Services is mainly used for extraction of data, and it works with all databases.
It comes pre-loaded with solutions, meaning it is ready to use without requiring significant development.
There is no disturbance in the connections, and it is very clear to check the connection flow with applicable queues.

Featured Reviews

Ramesh Pampana - PeerSpot reviewer
Has consistently provided impressive data handling capabilities and robust security features
Some of the most valuable features of SAP Data Services include data extraction where SAP is the best in that perspective, but when it comes to analytics or the reporting tool, I prefer to connect with Microsoft Power BI, which is a fantastic tool. Typically, from an end-user perspective, SAP has a huge amount of data, in terms of terabytes of data, but when you analyze that, the best form of visualization is always through Microsoft Power BI. SAP Data Services provides a best-in-class return on investment, as SAP's vision and forecast are absolutely amazing. They are ahead of technology, building an ecosystem that meets the standards of the fast-changing digital economy. SAP is indeed good at all this now, with so many components such as SAP Signavio, SAP EINS, SAP Work Zone, SAP ALM, Cloud ALM, SAP public cloud, SAP private cloud, and BTP, all of which are essential to meet the latest cutting-edge technologies.
