    It is most well-suited when analysing absence and looking for trends in order to be proactive as a business and address the various reasons causing this. It is less appropriate for maybe more financial based tasks, unless directly related to HR functions and processes within an organisation.

    SAP Manufacturing Integration and Intelligence as a stand-alone platform seems to be quite powerful with a wide range of capabilities and integration options. The integration itself proved to be challenging which was mentioned before. We also had some issues with delays in data queries which resulted in delays of the visual representation on the SSCE dashboards.

    • MII is particularly good at providing and customizing dashboards for quick analysis of industrial IoT data.
    • MII also has built-in analysis functionality to make more sense of all the IoT data being streamed.
    • MII (and ME) are particularly effective at identifying outliers and problems with equipment/processes before they cause delays or other cascading issues. This allows for effective preventative maintenance.

    Cons
    HotSchedules and Fourth
    • Breakdown of costs in each Rota - SMP affects it.
    • The integration with recruitment websites still requires data to be put in manually.
    • Integration of importing Excel on the rota.

    • MII is a system to build custom solutions which may not solve industry 4.0 solutions
    • SSCE component is not really a no code low code platform
    • Standard OEE module is very complex to implement

    If a proper UI5-based implementation is done, the system works at best if a proper application server and database exist. However, from a customization perspective and an easy-to-implement application-from-scratch perspective, MII is top-notch compared to the other mentioned systems. SAP ME sits on top of SAP MII as a foundation.

    Sometimes it was difficult to resolve an issue with a single person.

    Documentation on some of our implementations was lacking. As an example, creating the query that reads the tag is explained through the documentation but this only explains very specific data models. Other models are not explained and take time to debug. Customer support was willing to help and an official note was created after we found some issues with the integration tools.

    SAP MII is a robust platform for data visualization and data integration. It isn't very intuitive and has the shortcomings explained throughout the review. It still uses old Java versions which is incompatible with updated versions. The SAP ME and SAP CP provide cloud-based solutions that seem to provide a more innovative approach.

    • SAP MII is a more robust, feature-rich solution than any in-house application would be.
    • Our experiments have granted us the skills necessary to help our clients with their own industrial IoT journey.
