We performed a comparison between Amazon AWS and SAP Cloud Platform based on our users’ reviews in four categories. After reading all of the collected data, you can find our conclusion below.
Comparison Results: Amazon AWS and SAP Cloud Platform have a similar user rating based on ease of deployment and service and support. However, in terms of cost, Amazon AWS outperforms SAP Cloud Platform. Based on features, users felt Amazon AWS was an overall great solution but needed better data management. In contrast, users of SAP Cloud Platform felt the software had good data synchronization but was still a young product.
"The solution can scale well."
"There are a lot of features that I really like including ease of deployment, ease of build and release, and also that it is heavily focused on a PaaS or SaaS model."
"They are enterprising and pretty good in terms of features. It has good security. Its availability is also pretty good. It is available everywhere in the world. It has pretty good integrations, and it is working well. They have done a lot of improvements, and its UI has improved a lot."
"The solution has good speed. It's very fast."
"Amazon has a much better understanding of the workflow of data scientists and machine learning processes. This is seen by their SageMaker which offers different versions of the models to be used."
"We pretty much like everything and we are excited about the seamless capability the EC2 service is offering."
"I think Amazon AWS is easy to use, and it's a good service. I also like Amazon EKS because it's good."
"Cloud Trail API log storage."
"The most valuable features of SAP Cloud Platform are security integration and scalability."
"The solution is very useful and interactive with a dashboard for viewing other interfaces."
"Scalability is one of the benefits that we have in using the product."
"The product captures data in real time."
"It’s great that we have the entire suite of SAP at our fingertips."
"The most valuable feature is integration."
"The product improved our company's business operations since we got value out of it."
"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."
"The interface needs a bit of work. It's not intuitive."
"The interface could be improved."
"There was some new learning in terms of IOPS on the EBS storage. The concept of burstable IOPS was new and we did have a few outages when we ran out of IOPS."
"In some scenarios, Azure will support hybrid cloud better while AWS offers direct connection."
"It would be better if there was a way to see which components were still on. We have some situations where I forget that some components are turned on. We forget some components are on, and we only see that these components are on when we see the bill at the end of the month. It would also be better if AWS had specialized firewalls or integrations with leading products. For example, a specialized firewall with content filtering. We were looking for some firewall tools, and we saw that AWS doesn't have any specialized firewall tools in its services portfolio. So, we are looking for other tools like FortKnox, Forcepoint, and Check Point because we didn't find the solutions in AWS services."
"User personalization and robotic process automation services need to be mature enough. More APIs are required for robotic process automation services. Azure is more mature in terms of user personalization and robotic process automation services. The document processing can also be better. Whenever we want to do any kind of document management, I try to do OCR, ICR, etc. The functionality in AWS has to be more like that."
"I'm not an expert on the product, but if I had to suggest one improvement, I know a feature that would allow a person to backup his on-premise solution to the cloud directly with one click would be useful. This solution should be agnostic because sometimes a product that was backed up with Veeam is highly compatible with Commvault. I think it would be better if these backup features were agnostic. Viewing a build could also be improved. It's not easy to follow up on your consumption and see how much you're paying and how much you will be paying. Viewing the build could be more clear."
"The response time of technical support could be better."
"The current pricing model is credit-based. We would like to have more information about the usage of the existing applications."
"Lacks flexibility in its licensing structure."
"They are still developing this product. It does not really have 100% of the necessary features available to properly service business clients"
"It would be helpful to have additional samples for SoapUI that include interface methodologies and templates."
"The tool's UI is not very intuitive for cloud integration, so it needs research to understand its options and how it may work."
"When I started looking at the client's IT architecture, I started by doing a study of their services, DVM, data volume, and management services. According to the results, they could be a lot better at this."
"Shows errors without providing any analysis."
"I want to see better pricing from the SAP Cloud Platform in the future. I also want more security and scalability from it."
