Find out in this report how the two Infrastructure as a Service Clouds (IaaS) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."One of the features that I've found most useful is that It's very simple. They take care of the technical aspects of the data, installations, patches."
"It is a stable and scalable product."
"It has significantly streamlined our operations."
"The solution does provide quite a lot of support, upgrades, automated batch updates, etc."
"There's a minimum amount of downtime when using the solution. This platform is very effective."
"The most valuable feature is virtual modeling, which is beneficial because you don't really save the data multiple times the way we did in the past."
"The processes and the way we take advantage and use assistance are good."
"My company has not had any problems with the product's initial setup phase."
"SAP S4HANA on AWS has high performance. All the data is in one place and it's real-time. When you make an entry you don't have to wait a couple of minutes, hours, or overnight as something the batch process takes time. It is instantaneous and is available to everybody."
"There are two main features that we find very valuable. One is the interface and the new user experience. That's really, really helpful for the end-user. The second is the HANA database itself because it speeds up the process. In other solutions, like Oracle, there is a lot of redundancy that slows things down."
"This solution has one of the most modern databases and it is very stable."
"With extensive data and a sizable client base, this ensures seamless operations, responsiveness, and overall reliability, addressing our enterprise-scale needs effectively."
"The solution adds great value to any organization."
"Technical support is very good from SAP and AWS...Scalability is always available in the solution...With a stable environment, it should be running very nicely."
"I appreciate the reliability and performance of SAP S/4HANA on AWS. It demonstrates high integration and stability, making it a widely used choice in various industries, including manufacturing, such as factories, carmakers, and battery production. It effectively covers a broad spectrum of business areas, which is beneficial."
"They have their own instances where you can host your database."
"Customers need to be better educated about using the solution's cloud for digital transformation."
"Perhaps minor changes to the enterprise structure could be made, but the rest is fine."
"It’s a common challenge with applications like Microsoft and SAP that they tend to rely on engineers rather than human resources personnel for knowledge and implementation."
"Enterprise Cloud's reporting could be more automated to improve content accountability, especially regarding BI reports."
"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."
"The main thing is that SAP needs to give better response times for support tickets."
"The solution needs to embed or integrate with IBP to fully activate the PPT module with efficiency."
"This product is not mature enough at this point in time."
"The drawback of this tool versus an on-site tool is that you've got to upgrade the tool. The software is upgraded as it gets upgraded and you've got to be ready to change whatever processes and do whatever training you need to do."
"I would like scalability to be improved in the future for faster performance."
"If you go to AWS's site they offer training programs that are very good. SAP does not do the same, if SAP could provide some training that would be great."
"Over the last three to four years, I haven't encountered significant issues with SAP S/4HANA. While occasional system bugs are normal in software, the overall experience has been positive. As a business partner, it stands out as a reliable ERP solution."
"The product's implementation phase can be very complex for customers."
"The solution is costlier than other products."
"The manufacturing application system, it's not as user-friendly in S4HANA."
"The product could use more capabilities in the areas of robotics, machine learning and artificial intelligence, but these improvements are already on the way."
