    Microsoft
    Microsoft Azure IoT Central has native integrations with Visual Studio (like pretty much all Microsoft products) making it pretty simple to publish apps to Azure App Service, where you can host all sorts of different applications. It does a really good job of storing large amounts of data (for instance, collected from IoT devices with various sensors) and it gets stored to multiple DBs. Azure IoT Central could improve by adding more customizations, as this would make troubleshooting the products easier and make future costs smaller and easier to predict.

    In my opinion SAP Leonardo IoT lets us access emerging technologies such as machine learning, big data, internet of things (IoT) and blockchain. It is often associated with SAP Cloud Platform services but it’s not limited to this, as it includes predictive features in S/4HANA (on-premise or in the cloud).

    SAP always equals excellent support. This is not an exception. We've used the SAP help portal to find an answer or to contact SAP Support.

    Alternatives Considered
    Microsoft
    Before deciding to go with Microsoft Azure IoT Central, we considered Google, Datadog, and AWS alternatives. The reason we went with Azure was that the client was heavily invested in Microsoft technologies and Azure plays really well with other Microsoft products. The competitive products might be a little bit easier to set up, with more flexible pricing, but, the integrations with other Microsoft services were the deciding factor for our use case.

    Although with Hyperledger Fabric you can integrate some IoT devices, SAP IoT has a way better and more standardized GUI that really helps with efficiency. It is really hard with Hyperledger Fabric to navigate through a Linux terminal if you've never used bash. However, with SAP IoT the portal is pretty easy to navigate and understand. All the user has to do is know the higher-level design behind their IoT devices so that they can correctly implement them.

    Return on Investment
    Microsoft
    • positive: connected huge number of machines as IoT devices and passed them through entire IoT pipeline until storage in a fairly short time
    • negative: we spent some time figuring out some "less-used" services because they aren't documented well
