Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution is very stable.""The customer support team are very responsive.""The solution is easy to set up.""I like Kubernetes integration.""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.""The most valuable feature is the ease with which you can create a phishing server and use it.""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 processes and the way we take advantage and use assistance are good.""The solution is stable and we have never had a problem. We started with one terabyte of data when the solution was first implemented and today we have around almost 600 gigabytes of data, which means means the compression works properly. Before migrating from ECC, we had nine terabytes of data.""I am impressed with how the solution integrates with the ME system and ALE IDocs.""This solution is as good as any other S/4HANA SAP solution. The continuous support we get is very valuable.""Ensuring data integrity across finance, supply chain, and other critical areas is paramount for real-time decision-making. Access to accurate and up-to-date information is essential for data protection. While the digital solution primarily serves basic maintenance, the ability to handle these core aspects efficiently is invaluable for your needs.""The solution does provide quite a lot of support, upgrades, automated batch updates, etc.""The solution's initial setup process is straightforward.""The BTP module is important for digital transformations."

Cons
"The solution could improve by having integration with GitHub.""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.""I would like to see an automation feature added to send emails out using the open-source solution.""We found the solution to be a bit expensive.""The technical support for this solution could be improved.""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""I would like to see improvements to the logging and user interface. The verification process could be more streamlined.""I think something needs to be done in terms of technical support."

More DigitalOcean Cons →

"The stability needs to be improved to be able to handle large amounts of data.""The stability of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required.""They should probably offer more cloud services. Most of the cloud infrastructure providers we have make everything pretty transparent, you know what you're getting, you have all these metrics and measurements and everything in the dashboard. Here you have to go through the contracting negotiations and all those things.""Customization is an area of concern in SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud, where improvements are required.""Customers need to be better educated about using the solution's cloud for digital transformation.""The product must provide more details of the errors.""The cost could be improved. I think it's higher than the competition.""This product is not mature enough at this point in time."

  • "If you choose the minimum, it will probably cost around $1,000 USD per month if you take a contract for a year or two."
  • "The licensing of the solution is on a yearly basis. The normal price of the solution is quite high, but I received a special discount by making a purchase near the end of the year."
  • "The solution could be less expensive."
  • "The price is expensive compared to the competition."
  • "The price is high compared to other databases, which is why HANA is still not widely used. Some enterprises prefer Sybase, Oracle, or other traditional databases because HANA is a little pricey. Cost is one factor SAP needs to work on to make it more competitive with other databases. Otherwise, they'll never be able to develop a mass customer base."
  • "Our pricing is based on a yearly contract."
  • "The pricing is reasonable when compared to other vendors like Oracle who offer technology enterprise resource software."
