We performed a comparison between Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) and SAP Cloud Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two PaaS Clouds solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The scalability feature of the product is very impressive, especially considering the fact that the tool offers its users a pay-as-you-go model."
"There is ROI with the product's use."
"It's a cloud, so it is easy to access anywhere."
"It's reliable, performs well, and is often faster than running applications on separate machines due to optimized performance and networking capabilities within OCI."
"We use the solution for EC2. It helps me to create around six servers for free to test out things. It also provides me with an authenticated cloud nameserver. We also use it as a wireguard endpoint."
"Oracle Cloud is reasonably scalable - I'd rate it seven out of ten."
"Apart from the licensing, there's support from Oracle Cloud Platform which improved our day to day operations. Time is reduced. Based on this service, we are able to scale up dependent applications as quickly as we can."
"The most valuable features are the manageability and the user interface."
"The solution can scale."
"The ability to expand it whenever required has been great — it's very simple."
"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."
"To be able to define multiple sub accounts in order to accommodate and separate development, test, and productive environments."
"The HANA replications are very useful."
"The mapping transformation allows us to connect our on-premise ECC to the cloud system."
"Great Integration Suite, with CPI being its stable component."
"The maintenance part can be outsourced easily."
"The solution requires tighter integration capabilities."
"It could be more affordable."
"It takes more time to release resources than one of its competitors."
"The main issue for the clients is that they need to understand the credit payments because if it's a currency that's not dollars or euros, Oracle will always convert it into credits and that's not easy for the customer to understand at the beginning."
"Technical support could be a bit better."
"Oracle Cloud's price is very high."
"The initial setup can be a bit complex."
"The solution’s support could be improved."
"Shows errors without providing any analysis."
"The price of the solution could improve."
"The solution requires more flexibility overall."
"I want to see better pricing from the SAP Cloud Platform in the future. I also want more security and scalability from it."
"The product could be improved for consistent user interfaces."
"It would be helpful to have additional samples for SoapUI that include interface methodologies and templates."
"Lacks flexibility in its licensing structure."
"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."
