Find out in this report how the two Relational Databases Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."This is a wonderful database that is, in my opinion, underrated. Users are able to get the most out of my experience by taking advantage of its centralized environment."
"It's user-friendly, especially in the logistics field."
"They provide easy integration with other systems."
"The actual interface is good."
"SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise is a good transactional database."
"I like that SAP ASE can match code and the database index to index data in the programming language. There are many other valuable features, such as the table buffer, tuning, and various control agents like dispatcher. SAP ASE can handle many different data types, including views, domains, data elements, structures, objects, and various table types that are most useful in the application. Its modularization technique is also handy."
"Provides very good integration."
"The speed at which it gets the data is great."
"The best feature of SAP HANA is column computing. The computing speed of the solution is also very high, so developers can easily develop programs through SAP HANA."
"The most valuable feature of SAP HANA is the interaction it provides with external suppliers and clients."
"It's easy to use, and the Hana Studio is pretty good."
"We are using the solution for the DW system. The primary function of the solution is for the database in memory."
"The initial setup is straightforward. It usually takes around eight months but it depends on a customer's requirements. We can spend a month or two customizing."
"The solution is marvelous because it controls everything including workflow and that makes our company more productive."
"All features are valuable."
"I think that the solution needs to be positioned better within the market as it appears as though the Adaptive Server is being left out of the SAP scope."
"SAP should refine its debugging method, and the process needs to be a little faster. It should use more Pragmas and fewer pseudocomments. I would like if SAP added more features based on advanced technologies, like artificial intelligence and voice control. The modularization and if-else techniques could also incorporate the latest technology to code and solve complex problems. The SAP Editor should be more elaborative, and it should allow many more types of statements for all uses."
"Cost-wise, SAP is still expensive compared to other available products."
"Because the solution is customized. we do occasionally face unique bugs. There are always some changes that need to be made here and there."
"User interface could be more user friendly."
"The solution should improve view partitioning. The documentation is very confined and available only for users. Distributors also would like access to it."
"There could be some improvements in barcode scanning and RFID access."
"The initial setup was pretty complex, considering the enormous amount of data they had from an Oracle ERP."
"The installation process could be more straightforward."
"There's an issue in the partition. When you record more than two million records, partitioning does not work well. In Oracle it's easy. SAP must resolve this issue in order to be more competitive with Oracle."
"SAP HANA is not strong like Oracle when it comes to finance. They are only strong with the logistic business project."
"It could be a bit more scalable."
"The SAP HANA interface has room for improvement because it takes more work to manage than the Microsoft SQL Server interface."
"It's a complex initial setup."
"A documents preview could be helpful."
