"The performance is good."
"The stability is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"Dell ECS is a cost-effective solution that provides ease of use and availability."
"The scalability is good."
"This solution is very easy to use, and is very reliable."
"I have been satisfied with the stability."
"I like that the solution is easy to scale and that's its stable."
"To be able to define multiple sub accounts in order to accommodate and separate development, test, and productive environments."
"One of the most valuable features I have found is that the solution is secure."
"The dashboard provides pretty good clarity."
"The pre-delivered content from the SAP cloud platform is definitely a strength."
"The ability to build custom applications on the BTP platform, reducing customization on the SAP HANA system and improving performance and management."
"The integration flows are the most valuable feature of this solution."
"We primarily utilize SAP's ERP capabilities."
"Great Integration Suite, with CPI being its stable component."
"The solution needs to provide better integration between this solution and all other kinds of systems."
"From an improvement perspective, Dell ECS should aim to offer a better pricing plan to its users."
"The solution could be more cost-effective and secure."
"Dell EMC ECS should support segregation of duty, particularly for role-based access controls. Having a single pane of glass for smarter observation and better control mechanism would also make this solution better."
"If Dell ECS would be available as standalone software, so you can use any hardware with it, would make the solution better. It would also be good if Dell ECS had more integrations with other products."
"Dell ECS needs to improve its performance."
"Technical support needs to be improved."
"We have concerns about the write performance. We would also like it to be easier to scale out, to add more boxes to the system. And we want improved performance, to use a next-generation NFS service."
"SAP Cloud Platform's installation is not straightforward. You need a person with knowledge to handle it."
"When they innovate too fast, they end up confusing their customers."
"From what I understand, the SAP Cloud Platform is for implementation on AWS or Azure, and it's not meant to be a full-fledged cloud solution, so while using the platform, an area for improvement is that it has fewer offerings and is less flexible when compared to AWS. AWS has a lot more flexibility than the SAP Cloud Platform. I've also used Azure in college and AWS in between, and I prefer AWS over the SAP Cloud Platform. The only reason I would ever stick with the SAP Cloud Platform is to create applications integrated with SAP or with other companies within SAP, such as SuccessFactors. When you go into the SAP Cloud Platform web page, it's a bit bland and has relatively limited offerings. For example, there doesn't seem to be in-house MongoDB support, but I realize there's in-house support for the PostgreSQL database, so there are fewer offerings in the SAP Cloud Platform. Yes, you can always go for a database on the actual MongoDB server rather than depending on the offerings of the SAP Cloud Platform. However, it's still better to support MongoDB from the platform, so payment is consolidated, rather than going to a different location to make a payment. Another room for improvement in the SAP Cloud Platform is the need to create an SAP subaccount if you need to use the platform unless you have an SSO login by Google or if you're using a different identity provider such as Microsoft or Google. Instead of requiring dependency on SAP, it would be good if users could use the SAP Cloud Platform even without a subaccount on SAP. For example, when hosting an application on AWS or Azure, you don't have to create an account in Amazon or Microsoft. You can still do it using Google. You can use almost anything, so I'd like SAP to improve by removing the dependency, particularly the requirement to create an SAP account to use the SAP Cloud Platform."
"The product could be improved for consistent user interfaces."
"Shows errors without providing any analysis."
"Speaking about the public cloud, it's a very rigid system. So, there is not a lot of customization possible in a public cloud environment."
"The price of the solution could improve."
"I would like to see more and better support for data transformations."
