    SAP
    Joule explained ATC findings, including root cause, business impact, recommended APIs, and examples of fixes for S/4HANA readiness checks. Joule today is a point-in-time assistant — great for one question, one generation, one explanation at a time. It is not yet capable of owning a full development flow.

    In my personal experience I am using LangSmith Agent Engineering Platform in production-grade AI Systems, due to the feature of instant visual tracing of complex graph loops, API segmentations, tool calls and so much more without any boilerplate to be mentioned. Still the drawbacks are visible in development or research phases, where open-sources technologies to go well, or tasks which can be better achieved with single API call or static sequential chains.

    Pros
    SAP
    • Users can prompt Joule to create business partners in MDG.
    • The change process for Business partner (Customers/Suppliers) updation is made easy, particularly for updating data such as address and communication details.
    • The workflow process has been simplified by Joule agents, such as identifying the high-priority task and sharing it with the end user.
    • Improved data quality to almost 30%~50% in the CR creation process, which is a significant milestone for us.

    Cons
    SAP
    • In SuccessFactors Joule should have more tools out of the box.
    • There should be more examples on what is possible to do with Joule or Joule Studio in Successfactors, all available examples seem to focus only on Payroll or Inventory management leaving the HR behind.
    • Document Grounding should be easier to implement, and should be possible to have some kind of permissions per couuntry / user group for specific documents. The implementation with Sharepoint makes it harder to complete because normally we need some extra team to join and help and until now, I always had issues implementing it. I believe that it would make it much easier if the documents could be stored and managed inside SuccessFactors.

    As we explore, we can learn more. As i believe, we can only learn to live and live to learn stuffs. So as well AI does the same and improve itself. By trying and prompting joule more, we can use it in better ways. I would definitely wait and use the new versions shared in SAP Teched on Joule with more LLM involved

    Usability
    SAP
    I would rate Joule’s overall usability a 10 out of 10 because it makes interacting with SAP incredibly simple, intuitive, and fast. The conversational interface removes the complexity normally associated with navigating SAP modules, running transactions, or building reports. Even non-technical users can get meaningful insights within seconds just by asking natural language questions.

    In my opinion the technologies and concepts which I use with LangSmith Agent Engineering Platform like API tracing, prompt management, Prompt Hub and Agent Builder were like pioneer in the market with LangSmith Agent Engineering Platform. There are some scopes of improvements in terms of compatibilities and open-source tooling gaps but overall, it has to be on the list if you are doing AI-engineering at Production level.

    as its cloud based, as of now, we see it available all the time and havent faced any issues while accessing. Not sure if this has high availability and Disaster recovery features got set up already with the default version that we are using at our organization. no issues so far.

    Usually support for Joule takes longer than normal, and the correct answer always takes a long time to get, or we just don't get it at all, and we fix ourselves.

    Joule implementation was easy but it has too many steps, it would be nice if part of the steps could be done automatically.

    Joule is better because it doesn't take only data available on the web, but combines that with data provided directly by the game publisher through API to us which includes every single match played = all data points from all of those matches. That means that for us Joule gives deeper insights than any online AI chat agent could do
