I rate the product price as one or two on a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price, and ten is a high price. It is not an expensive product. As my company already has SAP ECC, SAP doesn't charge anything for SAP Data Services.

SAP Data Services costs are relatively high compared to other data services solutions. However, SAP has recently changed its pricing model to be more usage-based, which can make it more cost-effective for some organizations. The new pricing model charges based on the number of CPU processes used, which can be more expensive for organizations with high data processing needs. However, the new pricing model can be more affordable for organizations with lower data processing needs. Additionally, the cost of SAP Data Services can vary depending on the country where it is being used.

I would give it around a three, where one is a high price, and ten is a low price. It's relatively expensive compared to other vendors, but it is competitive.

The pricing is okay, however, you do pay a lot. It's expensive. The costs vary from client to client. There are different mechanisms for licensing, including user and CPU-based licensing. That said, I don't directly deal with licensing and can't get into specifics.

The license price is expensive but medium to large-scale companies, should be able to afford it. Other solutions, such as Talend are easier to afford for smaller companies. Depending on the sources of the data where you are receiving your data you could be paying for more than one license.

At the entry level, if you're using it only for data integration, it is a little bit cheap. However, for large organizations it can be expensive. There are additional costs apart from the license.

Informatica and SAP Data Services are both pricey for a small business. We may have to find another solution that's on the cloud. The license itself isn't the most expensive part. We have to pay for servers, consultants, etc.

The price of SAP Data Services is a little high when compared to other solutions. Due to the pricing and capabilities, many clients are switching to other solutions.

The licensing costs vary. It depends on the company, on the project. A regular person cannot afford it. It's more for enterprise-level organizations. I'm not sure about the licensing based upon monthly or yearly, however. There should just be one set fee, however, there may be costs associated with ancillary platforms a company has integrated with SAP.

I cannot speak to the exact cost of the solution, however, in terms of if you look at the consulting fee, and you work up debt on a yearly basis, it might be $50,000 USD. There aren't additional costs beyond the standard fee.

Its pricing is as per the enterprise agreement and not a concern for us.

We're a technical team, so we aren't directly involved in the prices or cost of the solution. Our marketing department handles the details and negotiates prices with SAP. They try to get reductions to lower pricing in the contracts. I have no idea what the exact amount is our company pays on a monthly or yearly basis.

I'm not up to date about the pricing for the past three years as it is not my concern in the business, but I can advise users on some things. Since data services are not usually positioned as a stand-alone product in the telecom sector, I believe that it should be. The price should be segmented with attention to the market with some variety in enterprise packages to offer more marketing opportunities. In the past, they had some kind of pricing packaging coming from the distribution center which was definitely an advantage in the market and that's why we were able to get more than twenty projects in the past, including staying within the enterprise market. Then after that time, the pricing changed. Unfortunately, of course, SAP tried to increase revenue and the prices went up. But again, they are losing the market against products like Microsoft SSIS (SQL Server Integration Services). It is integration services, and it's also a good product for a lot of people, but in my opinion, it's not as good as SAP data services. Because of the price, the game now has changed and there is more competition.
