We performed a comparison between Amazon AWS and SAP S4HANA on AWS based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."AWS is constantly growing in features with every new version. It's a good cloud provider with excellent availability. The integration is good, and their security products are interesting. Amazon is always innovating and delivering new products to customers."
"There is less work for the DBAs. Everything is handled in AWS itself."
"Great scalability."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that they offer everything around in just one platform."
"It has good reporting and documentation."
"The solution offers a low footprint. We don't have to come up with a data center ourselves. We basically don't have to own any hardware. We just rent a slice of their platform and we have everything we need."
"The solution also helps organizations to move applications to a containerized platform."
"Very good automation and very stable."
"The most valuable feature of SAP S4HANA on AWS is the latency and speed. When we use the various typical relation database, the performance was visible."
"The internal integration within departments and integration with third parties is simplified in the system."
"The product’s high availability is its best feature."
"It is indeed a stable solution, but it depends on how you architecture the component in AWS. If the component has the right architecture and is properly provisioned and placed, then it will be a stable platform."
"The solution adds great value to any organization."
"The tool's installation is easy. I rate it an eight out of ten."
"This product is currently the leading product within this category."
"We have approximately 1,000 people using the solution in my organization. The solution is scalable."
"Amazon tools are for more mature DevOps. The process and the Dev is very good, but it doesn't compare to the ease of using the Google Cloud Platform."
"Configuration could be simplified."
"Amazon AWS is a very poor product for students. Microsoft Azure is a better solution."
"I would appreciate more direct support from AWS."
"Many of our clients prefer in-house cloud rather than the application data sitting in the infrastructure owned and managed by Amazon."
"The AWS documentation is written in a way that is not very intuitive. That's an area they can improve."
"The pricing structure can be improved and made more straightforward."
"Amazon still has room for improvement in terms of being more mature on the monitoring side and in terms of the native capabilities. Amazon should get their services portfolio stronger on OEM-based workloads such as Microsoft and Oracle. There are a lot of areas that still do not have offerings, so there is room to grow. I would be happy if they bring more maturity to the monitoring capabilities and SaaS offerings. They are strong on Infrastructure as a Service, but they are not mature on SaaS."
"The GUI is age-old, the pricing is too high for hardware and older customizations are not working consistently."
"I would rate my experience with the initial setup a three out of ten, where one is difficult and ten is easy."
"There are times when the solution can become slower. The stability could improve."
"SAP S4HANA on AWS could improve by having more data centers because there are limited data centers in the region I am in. Amazon AWS has announced a few more data centers to be added, but they're still not 100 percent operational for SAP solutions."
"I would like to see a lower price for the solution."
"We had some storage and legacy migrations problems with SAP S4HANA on AWS."
"There are a few complexities when it comes to licensing that could be simplified."
"The solution needs a warehouse management feature. Right now, there's a built-in WM, but they don't have an EWM extended warehouse management built-in, in S/4HANA. It's a separate product. So if they can add that, that would be great."
