We performed a comparison between Oracle Database In-Memory and SAP HANA based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Embedded Database solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I like Oracle because it is a backward-compatible solution."
"We use the tool for real-time data transfer for risk management purposes. In a trading system, conversions happen fast. We use the product to handle fast transactions with low latency."
"It accelerates query processing, which in turn speeds up operations and streamlines workflow, and ultimately enhancing productivity."
"The most valuable feature is that Database-In-Memory is more consistent and faster than traditional databases as it requires fewer CPUs to process instructions."
"The scalability is very good."
"The on-premise version is stable. We have different teams and resources for the server side, for admin, and for development. We can easily take care of all the services and applications."
"Security is the most valuable feature."
"The scalability of the solution is very good. It's able to support large amounts of data."
"The most value for us was in terms of using it to issue tenders online. We host our server, but it is open to the public, so clients who want to buy those tenders were able to go online, put their tender documents up, and we could evaluate them using SAP."
"The feature that I like the most is that we can transport the data to our web data application. SAP HANA's performance is really perfect. We're working on big data, and SAP HANA is really working on high performance. We are happy working with it."
"It is very flexible to integrate with SaaS components."
"The most valuable features I have found are speed, dashboard, and reporting."
"We use SAP HANA for Master Data Governance."
"Provides us with predictive capabilities for asset maintenance, and real-time forecasts."
"When we upgraded, we received more functions or more features."
"The in-memory computing and the efficient response time are very good features."
"Lacks sufficient integration with other tools."
"The product could be more economical."
"The pricing could be improved. It would ideal if it was more reasonable."
"The high cost of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"They should improve the solution's scalability for large databases."
"They should lower the price. My customers think that it's too expensive."
"We often have to find solutions on our own through the support site, so there's room for improvement in this regard."
"The platform’s pricing needs improvement."
"It could be a bit more scalable."
"Ease of use could be improved in SAP HANA. I like SAP because SAP solutions can be used by anyone, which means even laymen can start working on SAP tools, but in SAP HANA modeling, you'll need to know some other technologies and sequel scripting, and you need a separate skillset, so if you don't have the skillset, you won't be able to work on SAP HANA. Making SAP HANA low-code would make it even better."
"The worst thing about SAP HANA is the price; it's very expensive. The licensing cost, implementation cost, hosting cost, and appliance cost are all high."
"The openness of the system could be more developed. The solution should go into the cloud. The cloud mechanism should be more invested."
"The initial setup was very, very complex, tedious, and costly and required someone with great expertise to complete it."
"The pricing is expensive."
"I think that the pricing is high and it needs improvement."
"The product is very demanding on memory requirements."
