Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"ESB: Provides all kind of possibilities to resolve business needs. A lot of ready to use services plus custom Java services. I used a lot of them all.""The solution offers excellent stability.""SDM: User-friendly tool which allows for a seamless approach to performing hotfixes, if required.""The Messenger Broker is a really good feature.""The solution is highly scalable, this is very important for us. It can handle a lot of messages.""The features that I have found most valuable are that it is very easy to develop. Most of it is graphical, but we also have the option to add any custom call that you need."

More Aurea CX Messenger Pros →

"The flexibility and the customizability this solution has when adapting to our business requirements is a huge benefit.""Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.""It provides an efficient integration framework with other SAP products.""With SAP, you can trust what it tells you.""The presentation is the most valuable feature. It's very conceptual. We had to follow the instructions very strictly. It's a Dutch or German product and we had to follow it step-by-step.""I like that I don't need any extra tools to keep the solution up and running.""We strongly rely on our SAP data. We need access to the information to analyze it, so the solution allows us to make use of the data that we get from SAP. This is the most valuable aspect of the solution.""The human capital management module is valuable."

Cons
"I don't know if the last version has the cloud option, but maybe that could be good. That could be something that is included.""It should include/add more services with the product as per market demand. It should include custom Java services developed by any organization or provide a platform where users/developers can share ideas/custom services, etc.""The solution needs to improve support for new, more recent protocols on the API.""The improvement is that it should be on the cloud and use web services.""Aurea CX Messenger could improve by making better use of the new APIs""You should not hurry with upgrades without testing the whole product completely."

More Aurea CX Messenger Cons →

"The initial setup is a little complex. The users are not able to install the prerequisite drivers or are not able to follow the SOP because they don't have access to SAP Logon. If users already have access, it will take seven to 10 days to deploy the solution. If they do not, it may take a maximum of 25 to 30 days.""Technical support response time was slow.""SAP is likely transitioning to S4, so it is unlikely that they will continue to use NetWeaver.""It needs more improvement in terms of user-friendliness. SAP wasn't user-friendly at all.""SAP isn't particularly user-friendly and you have to develop a long list of favorites to be able to get around.""SAP NetWeaver PI is not connected to the cloud.""Has become somewhat unstable recently.""SAP NetWeaver it's still complex for a normal user unless you memorize those action codes."

    Questions from the Community
    Top Answer:The Messenger Broker is a really good feature.
    Top Answer:The pricing is not so high. I will rate it a seven out of ten, where one is the lowest and ten is the highest. There are no additional fees to the standard license.
    Top Answer:The improvement is that it should be on the cloud and use web services because the earlier version is not using web service and cloud functionality. If Aurea could include these features in the future… more »
