High stability, reasonably priced, and important for digital transformations

Customers need to be better educated about using the solution's cloud for digital transformation. SAP as a legacy system is missing that flavor. The solution is not a traditional ERP software so should be used as a digital transformation tool. That is the story to project to customers, partners, and sales teams. This will help the solution grow faster than GCP, AWS, or Azure. In fact, Google Cloud Platform is now collaborating with SAP for digital transformation. The solution should offer affordable modules that are customized to startups with 50 to 500 employees. Most people think of SAP as being only for big enterprises but it could be very useful for smaller companies. There are 40,000 to 50,000 startups in APAC each year and that is a large volume. Many of the solution's modules could be used by those startups. Google is targeting this market with chat boards and automation tools at a reasonable price or with six months of free usage. SAP should come up with this kind of module and include sandbox so providers can play with a few of the POCs.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We're able to use the solution in several processes."

"Google Firebase is one I like a lot because it gives us a little bit more power and accessibility when it comes to publishing apps a lot quicker and for the needs that we have."

"It is a completely reliable product."

"Its simplicity makes it quite handy for my needs in app development."

"The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the fact that its storage can be easily used in our mobile applications."

"The user interface is very good and easy to navigate."

"Allows us to create functions without any infrastructure apart from the Google App Engine."

"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."

More Google Firebase pros

"The processes and the way we take advantage and use assistance are good."

"We have a wide range of use cases for SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud. These include production planning, materials management, sales management, treasury, finance, appliance maintenance, real estate, and warehouse management."

"The scalability is good because we have some cloud resources to support the ERP."

"The real-time data processing and the ability to track all leasing processes and contracts are particularly valuable."

"It is a scalable solution if you have a good cloud infrastructure."

"The solution does provide quite a lot of support, upgrades, automated batch updates, etc."

"My company has not had any problems with the product's initial setup phase."

"This solution is as good as any other S/4HANA SAP solution. The continuous support we get is very valuable."

More SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud pros

Cons

"In terms of DevOps, such as CI/CD deployments and integrating webhooks with GitHub, GitLab, or other platforms, Firebase does not offer those capabilities at that level."

"Google Firebase should add extra functionality to do global delete and updates across your database."

"Google Firebase lacks a SQL database."

"The solution's notification system could be much better."

"I would prefer Google Firebase to focus more on its integration capabilities since it is an area in the solution with certain shortcomings."

"The only thing that I won't do on Firebase is the hosting side of things for a progressive web app because it feels like you actually still need to download the app first before you can actually get into the functionality of the app."

"The initial setup is not exactly straightforward."

"The exploration of the functions within Firebase could be improved."

More Google Firebase cons

"They should probably offer more cloud services. Most of the cloud infrastructure providers we have make everything pretty transparent, you know what you're getting, you have all these metrics and measurements and everything in the dashboard. Here you have to go through the contracting negotiations and all those things."

"The stability of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."

"The customer has a lot of dependencies on SAP which means they don't have much flexibility to go and update the system when or if they need to. They will need to wait for the quarterly updates. It's possible to maybe raise a special request with SAP if it is absolutely necessary."

"Customers need to be better educated about using the solution's cloud for digital transformation."

"Enterprise Cloud's reporting could be more automated to improve content accountability, especially regarding BI reports."

"SAP should adopt more rapid changes in market processes and customer needs to deliver solutions that meet new industry requirements swiftly."

"It needs improvement in terms of stability and performance."

"Perhaps minor changes to the enterprise structure could be made, but the rest is fine."

More SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the price of Google Firebase a four out of five."

"The price is perfect and very clearly defined. The price during the trial setup is free and then you move to a paid service."

"The tool is affordable."

"It is not easy to calculate the cost per copy, use or if the load rose dramatically we did not know how that would impact the final price."

"I rate Google Firebase a seven or eight out of ten for pricing."

"Google Firebase is an expensive solution."

"The monthly cost is based on writing data and queries to the database."

"The moment you go into volumes, then you work on a pay-per-volume basis."

More Google Firebase pricing and cost advice

"The solution's cost is reasonable."

"I rate the product's price a five out of ten."

"It's very, very expensive."

"The price is on little bit higher. For SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud, we see roughly five crores per annum."

"If you choose the minimum, it will probably cost around $1,000 USD per month if you take a contract for a year or two."

"The pricing is reasonable when compared to other vendors like Oracle who offer technology enterprise resource software."

"The product itself is relatively expensive."

"SAP may not be the most cost-effective option, but it does offer a comprehensive set of tools and features. When you have the right information, structure, and dashboard in place, it can provide excellent value. Additionally, competition with Oracle might be a factor to consider."
