We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The user interface is nice, and it is very easy to use. Anyone can use it.""It's been a good choice for us for some services. We generally have several deployments. For instance, for some static Angular applications, it was a clear choice to run them on Cloudflare, which performs very well in this context. All the assets go on DigitalOcean.""The most valuable feature is the ease with which you can create a phishing server and use it.""The customer support team are very responsive.""The solution is easy to set up.""The most outstanding aspect of DigitalOcean is its user interface and ease of use. Compared to more complex solutions, such as AWS, DigitalOcean's platform is highly intuitive and user-friendly.""I like Kubernetes integration.""The solution is very stable."

Cons
"I would like to see an automation feature added to send emails out using the open-source solution.""The solution could improve by having integration with GitHub.""I think something needs to be done in terms of technical support.""I would like to see improvements to the logging and user interface. The verification process could be more streamlined.""We found the solution to be a bit expensive.""The issue with DigitalOcean is primarily the latency. So, when you have a mixed system with some components staying here, and then we encounter network latency, it's not optimal. Our""The technical support for this solution could be improved.""Other solutions are proving the monitoring feature, like AWS having GuardDuty and SAP having services for logs and monitoring. DigitalOcean doesn’t have any other benefits."

More DigitalOcean Cons →

"The web client is an area with shortcomings, which SAP is presently working on, and needs to improve.""I would like to achieve better integration with AWS so that it becomes more interconnected with the SAP system.""The AI tools, programming languages, and dashboard customization should be easier.""There are limitations of SAP Business One. It's a complex topic, and exploring options like SAP HANA is challenging at the moment. Understanding the limitations of ERP requires thorough research. I suggest conducting some preliminary investigations into ERP products before making a decision. We chose SAP Business One as it caters to SMEs like ours, acknowledging and accepting its limitations. While a larger product exists, switching would entail budget considerations due to the ongoing implementations. Therefore, the current situation with SAP Business One is not a matter of concern.""The interface needs to be improved. It needs to be more user-friendly.""The look-and-feel of the system is quite outdated as compared to a lot of other products out there.""Analytics could be much better.""SAP Business One on AWS could improve by adding more functionality to the web client."
