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…
Miguel Maloney Thompson - PeerSpot reviewer
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

"The tool's most valuable aspects are the niche technologies and the latest editions. The way these updates are rolled out makes it easy to manage because clients and customers are not responsible for keeping everything up to date. It's SAP's responsibility, which makes it much easier to take advantage of the new features they roll out every month."
"The solution has a lot of great features."
"SAP Cloud Platform's performance is much faster than the on-premises solution because of continuous fine-tuning by their team."
"The product's initial setup phase is pretty straightforward."
"SAP Cloud Platform's most valuable features are its exhaustiveness, scalability with minimum maintenance, and functionality."
"It is a stable solution, as I never encountered issues when using it."
"Cloud Platform's stability is great."
"One of the best features of this solution is that it is web-based and you can log in and work on it from anywhere."
"Technical support from Jelastic is very good."
"The control is valuable. It's really easy to use and you have good control of your solutions."
"The solution is scalable, and that is what we are looking at. There is no learning curve as we have not done much research."
"The dynamic vertical scaling is a unique feature."
"The advanced level of production-ready Docker hosting, one-click application deployment, and the truly flexible pricing."
 

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."
"The solution's document management system on the cloud is a bit slow, and document uploading takes time."
"They are still developing this product. It does not really have 100% of the necessary features available to properly service business clients"
"When they innovate too fast, they end up confusing their customers."
"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."
"The product needs improvement for serverless native integrations. They should opt for serverless features as all the customers worldwide choose cloud-based products."
"The current pricing model is credit-based. We would like to have more information about the usage of the existing applications."
"The areas I think this solution should improve are monitoring and adapting."
"The backup features need improvement, or rather it should be added, as I could not find it."
"The backup functionality needs to be improved."
"Lacks better integration into enterprise storage products."
"The security layers also need to be improved because there is no clear layer or tier of security in the solution."
"For now, some customers are requesting support of Docker containers for Windows."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The cost when it comes to monitoring can be difficult."
"Licensing costs for this solution are based on the number of users and the bandwidth."
"The pricing can be negotiated."
"SAP offers yearly, subscription-based, and pay-as-you-use licensing."
"The product's pricing varies and depends on the customers' needs."
"SAP Cloud Platform is an expensive solution."
"The solution is worth the money."
"SAP Cloud Platform Integration is an expensive product. I rate its pricing an eight out of ten."
"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."
