"The features allow you to connect the service solutions with the client's requirements. It is user-friendly, easy to navigate and provides assistance."
"Oracle does well when it comes to data privacy and security, which are critical."
"I head the sales and marketing team. So, specifically on the feature set side, multi-tenancy is the one that I'm most familiar with. It's also the one that we found to be the most beneficial to us because it allows us to take clients that have multiple sites. For instance, one of our larger clients, which is a bank based out of South Africa, has offices in multiple countries. It allows us to multi-tenant each and create a tenant for each country within multi-tenanted architecture."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"The most valuable features of SAP S4HANA on AWS are that it's simplified and the analytical capabilities are good."
"Reporting transparency and user-friendliness are the key benefit of deploying SAP S4HANA on AWS. Furthermore, the solution offers a plethora of modules that have proven to be valuable, and there are regular updates available."
"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."
"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."
"This product is currently the leading product within this category."
"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."
"I would rate this solution as a nine out of ten because it covers all the fields, has a big maturity, and has something other solutions are missing, which is speed."
"SAP has an auto-scaling feature, but Azure doesn't."
"Customer service could be improved."
"The solution does not follow a retention policy while taking ad hoc backups. Since it does not follow the retention policy, we had to do the manual task to check the backups."
"The product roadmap strategy for some of the products is not clear."
"The AI capabilities and the power automate platform that Azure is offering seem to be way ahead of what Oracle is offering."
"The initial setup can be a bit complex."
"The biggest challenge I'm having with the cloud offering is the sizing. So, pricing becomes difficult. The sizing challenge is in terms of being very clear on how your data growth or your requirements would be. It becomes a bit difficult to be able to ensure that there's enough future proofing in what you've signed. At the same time, the whole idea behind the cloud is to be able to pay for what you use. You don't want to pay for something that you're not using."
"The customization and the requests put through were not flexible enough."
"The framework from AWS is so good, I would like to see this feature in OCI."
"The tool should undergo an overall improvement, including support. Data sharing should also be faster."
"Not just S4 but for SAP in general, the price is a little high because they have implemented a new licensing scheme on a number of connections. The price being too expensive is some of the feedback we get from our customers."
"This solution is very resource-intensive, including high memory and CPU utilization."
"The pricing is a little bit high."
"The manufacturing application system, it's not as user-friendly in S4HANA."
"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."
"The GUI is age-old, the pricing is too high for hardware and older customizations are not working consistently."
"There are a few complexities when it comes to licensing that could be simplified."
