"The initial setup is straightforward."
"I like that it is user-friendly and flexible."
"I think the most useful feature has been the remote desktop. It has been very helpful when customers have old applications that are not architected to run remotely."
"Virtual machine services, in SaaS services, M365, and Data Lake are all popular with our clients."
"One feature I like in Microsoft Azure is its ability to host and run applications on virtual machines. It is a basic yet crucial capability for our team."
"One advantage of using Azure is that clients can start with a low-cost entry in terms of hardware and scale as their business and user base grows. They don't need to allocate a large budget for infrastructure upfront."
"Provides a high level of availability and 99% uptime."
"It has significantly streamlined our operations."
"This solution is as good as any other S/4HANA SAP solution. The continuous support we get is very valuable."
"We have a wide range of use cases for SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud. These include production planning, materials management, sales management, treasury, finance, appliance maintenance, real estate, and warehouse management."
"It is a scalable solution if you have a good cloud infrastructure."
"The most valuable feature is virtual modeling, which is beneficial because you don't really save the data multiple times the way we did in the past."
"Fiori is the most valuable feature, as well as the the integration between S/4 and another solution as an extension."
"What I like the most is that we can convert databases into a proper multi-dimensional model, and then we can project with the integration with Power BI."
"I am impressed with how the solution integrates with the ME system and ALE IDocs."
"We use Microsoft Server 2019 and 2016. And I didn't like the 2019 client, so we had to downgrade back to 2016. The main issue there was its monitoring system. Our client needed an alternative, and if they were using more Windows products, they also needed to make that downgrade."
"In the next release, I would like to see better security."
"The solution could improve the stability. However, this could be a configuration issue that we are not been trained."

"The management portal can be confusing sometimes. We have difficulty navigating the menus because the terminology is unclear, especially when referring to the content or actionable items."
"I would like to see improved migration tools. It is improving week by week. They just need to make sure that they keep up with the new functionality provided in other clouds."
"There is a need to be better on-premise solutions that are more helpful. However, I don't think that is the goal of Microsoft Azure. They want the solution to be secure cloud solutions with cloud applications. This is their main goal at the moment."
"It needs improvement in terms of stability and performance."
"Customization is an area of concern in SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud, where improvements are required."
"The SAP products are complicated to deploy anywhere."
"The product must provide more details of the errors."
"SAP support isn't on par with products like Microsoft Azure or AWS. It's nowhere close to the competitors."
"The stability needs to be improved to be able to handle large amounts of data."
"It’s a common challenge with applications like Microsoft and SAP that they tend to rely on engineers rather than human resources personnel for knowledge and implementation."
