We performed a comparison between Linode 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."The most valuable feature is that they are flexible and easy to get ahold of if I need something."
"When I started using Linode, I found its functionality easy to navigate, user-friendly and responsive to my needs. It provides clear reminders about services I'm not using, like DNS zones, which I appreciate."
"Because of the way that their pricing model is set up, I can scale up or down the size of a customer's server very easily. It makes life very easy for me when they run out of space, need more speed or RAM, etc. I can very easily pay the difference and reboot the machine, and now I have the upgrade that I wanted. That just makes it extremely simple."
"Linode has many other cloud servers across the globe."
"Linode offers cost-effective pricing, and it enables me to swiftly deploy my services."
"The fact that you can do any Linux distribution is great. You can try out any Linux distribution, even some of the more obscure ones, and they are always keeping them up-to-date. As soon as a new distribution comes out, it is on the platform pretty much the same day, which I find really helpful."
"We can scale up and down as we require."
"The simplicity by which you can handle your inventory is one of the things I like the most."
"The solution is scalable."
"The most valuable features of SAP S4HANA on AWS are that it's simplified and the analytical capabilities are good."
"The product’s high availability is its best feature."
"The product efficiently manages the data center without manual intervention."
"This product is much better than most of the other products in this categaory as far as financial capabilities."
"We have found the retail business features to be the most valuable."
"The most valuable feature of SAP S4HANA on AWS is that when developed on a new structured system it can be configured."
"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."
"Before they changed the dashboard, I found some of the more granular options easier to find."
"The network between different servers isn't very good. I have to install additional solutions to link the servers with each other."
"Its cost can be improved."
"I don't know how all of their services work, but my understanding is that they're not offering the entry-level machine for someone who just wants to own their own web page."
"I'm not sure what could be improved at Linode since they're likely already making enhancements, especially with the Akamai acquisition and, I don't have any specific suggestions as I haven't encountered any major issues. I might consider using API for managing DNS records, but overall, I'm satisfied with Linode."
"The product must improve its security."
"It would be helpful if they offered a service where they handle the Linux security."
"I've had some difficulties with some of their IP addresses being banned by certain mail servers."
"I would like scalability to be improved in the future for faster performance."
"The GUI is age-old, the pricing is too high for hardware and older customizations are not working consistently."
"SAP S4HANA on AWS could improve by having the entire solution available as a web solution. They only have Fiori right now, and it's a solution for certain modules, but not for all the modules that SAP currently has. We would like to see the GUI removed, it is not very good. We want it to be web-based."
"The product can be very complex."
"I would rate my experience with the initial setup a three out of ten, where one is difficult and ten is easy."
"CPU architecture is an area where the solution currently has some issues. Improvement in CPU architecture could improve the performance side and the adherence to the parameters set by SAP."
"The product's implementation phase can be very complex for customers."
"SAP S4HANA could be improved by adding a click-to-deploy model."
