Nextcloud vs. SAP Build

For a SOHO business, this solution is ideal. You don't need to administrative overhead of other products like GSuite, and it saves licensing costs. The maintenance effort is minimal as long as you use their default applications. Migrations to newer versions can be done with a few commands and run automatically. If you're planning on using Nextcloud in large deployments with many users, you'll start to see higher costs on your resources and maintenance. There will be a point at which Gsuite becomes easier to manage.

The SAP Build Process product is best suited for managing pipelines and scrum boards without limitations. Implementation of the software is also simple, and unlimited users can connect the software with third-party systems to push codes. The software integrates well with other products, making it easy to build and deploy pipelines. The only issue with the SAP Build Process is the cost of implementation, which is far higher than that of other similar products.

• The only one I can think of that has made me not continuously use SAP Build is the cost of this tool. I see it a bit higher compared to other tools that provide the same functionality for cheaper or free plans.

Although coding would be helpful for improved automation and debugging, it is not a problem for any user to create a workflow and automate things as they wish. We spend way less time on training and developing workflows ourselves. There are also features such as a screen recorder. We have guides internally to teach how to automate better.

I never needed support as everything always worked fine. The documentation on Nextcloud website is extensive and clear. The community is very active on the forum and should support you if you don't already find what you are looking for.

There are, for example, great blog writings about automation cases and examples. The studio version is updated often. There are also useful OpenSAP online courses.

Nextcloud stacks up pretty well against Mattermost and ownCloud. I really appreciate the fact that Nextcloud seems to integrate with other products pretty seamlessly and allows for extensibility that our product team can extend and improve functionality without a tremendous ramp-up time. We once used ownCloud in previous years, but they went the wrong way, and have found Nextcloud to be the right direction over time.

Compared to Mendix, we decided not to go for low code application building and in the other parts of Build, Build is stronger and better integrated with SAP. On the hand of Coding, using Build Code, gives us Joule, which understands SAP better and also have a tighter and more secure coupling with SAP services.
