Influenced cost savings by approximately seventy to eighty percent
I have worked on multiple platforms in this space, like MuleSoft, Oracle, Intel, Microsoft, and Dell Boomi. However, Azure Logic Apps is the easiest and most transparent in terms of its operations, licensing cost, and scaling. Being in Azure, the use of the Azure ecosystem becomes quite native with Logic Apps.
PinakiGhosh - PeerSpot reviewer
The implementation cycle has been reduced significantly but has room for integration enhancements
Our existing customers who are on ECC are on-premises. They are migrating to SAP Cloud Platform, specifically on S4HANA.  One of our clients was on SAP ECC on-premises, and they are moving to the cloud on S4HANA on the public cloud system.  We are supporting about 15 customers, mostly small to…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Logic Apps is good for helping us run our access on a cloud environment like Azure. It's much easier, more reliable, and better to maintain."
"Logic Apps is good for helping us run our access on a cloud environment like Azure. It's much easier, more reliable, and better to maintain."
"The product's initial setup phase is something that I don't think is complex because once we start using it, it becomes simple."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Azure Logic Apps is the many available connectors that make automation easy. Additionally, the security of the solution is good."
"Logic Apps helped reduce complexity or development time. For example, if we get documents in the form of images, we can use Logic Apps to extract information from those images. This simplifies our efforts compared to originally using Microsoft APIs to do the same task."
"If we are working with a service-oriented architecture, as an architect as a baseline, it supports us very well in terms of expandability, and the kind of robustness it brings, especially with its serverless nature is fabulous."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the no-code/low-code feature."
"What I found most valuable in Microsoft Azure Logic Apps is that you can run a workflow or do a high-level process orchestration, then you can call the other function and fulfill the process. For example, if you want to update a customer, you first need to get the customer's phone number and simulate the steps of the process, then Microsoft Azure Logic Apps can orchestrate that process."
"The integration flows are the most valuable feature of this solution."
"To be able to define multiple sub accounts in order to accommodate and separate development, test, and productive environments."
"The product captures data in real time."
"The solution is very useful and interactive with a dashboard for viewing other interfaces."
"The HANA replications are very useful."
"The most valuable feature is integration."
"The dashboard provides pretty good clarity."
"The mobile access capability is very beneficial."
 

Cons

"Especially when using a function or a parameter, that could be easier as that's not very well-documented, and it's not very clear from the tool itself how to use it."
"Microsoft Azure Logic Apps can improve by continually updating the connectors to make them better."
"It can be a bit challenging to use."
"The only thing is, sometimes, when we need a specific connector, it requires an enterprise or paid version. If it were possible to provide the most commonly used connectors for pulling data from different sources free of cost, that would be really nice."
"The standard logic app could be simplified. Thats what we would like to see in the next release."
"We wanted to use Microsoft Azure Logic Apps, but we faced a timeout."
"The business rules engine is still not fully developed, and it would be very helpful to see improvements here."
"The solution should include more connectors."
"The price of the solution could improve."
"It would be helpful to have additional samples for SoapUI that include interface methodologies and templates."
"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."
"My impression of the stability is that it is not good. Almost every month there is something new and that makes us nervous about delivery."
"I want to see better pricing from the SAP Cloud Platform in the future. I also want more security and scalability from it."
"The pricing is too high across all SAP products relative to resource utilization."
"The current pricing model is credit-based. We would like to have more information about the usage of the existing applications."
"One crucial aspect where SAP lags behind in flexibility is customization to suit specific business requirements. SAP needs to understand that customization is inevitable and should be more supportive of business-driven customization."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's very cheap, but it comes with pluses and minuses. The positive thing is that it's very cheap, but on the other hand, it's extremely hard to tell how much it will cost. At the start of the project, it's almost impossible to tell how many times you will be calling some kind of Logic App function. You cannot state how much of the internet transfer you will use or how much data your will use."
"Logic Apps is cheap with its pay-as-you-go model. We only pay for usage time, no license fees. So Logic Apps is good in that aspect."
"The product pricing aligns well with the value and capabilities offered by Azure services."
"The licensing is cheaper because, compared to other services, Azure services are much cheaper and affordable."
"The price of Microsoft Azure Logic Apps is inexpensive."
"If we are comparing to other public cloud vendors, such as Amazon or Google Cloud platform, I wouldn't say that it's expensive. However, when we're comparing between a host such as GoDaddy or Digital Ocean, then it's a bit on the expensive side."
"The product is quite cheap."
"The tool’s pricing could be better."
"Licensing costs for this solution are based on the number of users and the bandwidth."
"Cost-wise, I'm unsure of how expensive the SAP Cloud Platform is."
"SAP Cloud Platform is expensive. It can be quite costly."
"SAP Cloud Platform Integration is an expensive product. I rate its pricing an eight out of ten."
"The tool could get too pricey...Small enterprises that want to leverage the tool's features will have difficulty in utilizing the solution."
"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."
"SAP offers yearly, subscription-based, and pay-as-you-use licensing."
"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."
