    User Testimonials
    SAP Sales Performance ManagementWorkato
    Likelihood to Recommend
    SAP
    Well suited:
    1. It works very well when commissions depend on many factors, such as role, region, product, quotas, or team splits. It handles these rules automatically and accurately. 2. It integrates smoothly with SAP systems such as SAP S/4HANA and SAP CRM 3. When sales reps want to see their earnings clearly and finance needs a clear audit trail, it provides both in one place. It is not suitable for small companies or when custom reporting is needed.

    Workato
    Workato is brilliant to make separate applications work together without much effort or specialists being needed. When specific events on software A should trigger actions on B (or more) and you want that to happen without any development or big budgets, that's where Workato comes into play. It's a great help if you want tasks automated, communications flowing and data synced between different applications.

    • The Workato product interface is brilliantly thought through and designed. The learning curve for first timers is easy enough to get started and build useful things, and Workato really shines in their ability to handle complex triggers and interactions. Workato allows people to build software apps so much faster than by coding each functionality.
    • Workato has fantastic documentation, making things accessible without any holes in the product. The product just works, never has any bugs, never lags, and just generally allows us to see and change exactly what we need to.
    • Workato has an absolutely amazing support team. We tried the free version for a while, then realized it was the single most important software tool we have, and we upgraded. The support at the paid tier is A+, seriously the best from any company we've worked with. Feels more like a good friend then a support rep.

    Cons
    SAP
    • I personally dislike the new GUI. In my opinion, it was designed more for looks than functionality.
    • The loading of large rate tables and MDLTs could be improved upon.
    • "Show the math" All the code that calculates the actual payment is embedded in the pipeline runs. It is nearly impossible to extract it for reporting.

    • Customer support - responsive, but often not equipped to help efficiently identify root cause of issue. Need to improve escalation to technical resources and turnaround time
    • Recipe organization and sharing. Can be challenging to copy recipes, or grab recipes from publicly available site. There are often dependencies and errors that have vague descriptions.

    Usability
    SAP
    It helps me do my routine tasks So, I do find it helpful as I get structured informational data from SAP Sales Performance Management which makes it simple for me to compare targets with given target and find performance gaps. I did not give it a 10 rating as I do feel that user interface can be improved and it can be stressful when doing unplanned and unorganized analysis as I have to use external tools then

    The sheer work Workato eliminates from people's daily jobs is simply a great contribution to people's productivity and a boost to capability. It actually strikes the balance between business and tech teams. It also reduces dependency on developers, and speeds up their delivery too. The only reason it's not a full 10/10 is for the price - it's a bit expensive for what we'd like, and their batch or high data volume processing can be improved.

    We discovered that we could not use Workato for our more complex, large enterprise integrations. It was useful for simple workflows that matched the prebuilt recipes.

    We already used Zapier, but since it doesn't support NetSuite we had to choose another automation platform. Now that we've been using Workato for a few months, we have plans to move the stuff we're going through Zapier to Workato. We set up a trial account with all the other platforms, and they were all more expensive and A LOT more complicated than Workato.

    Return on Investment
    SAP
    • The efficiencies gained by moving from reports and spreadsheet alone has earned us a positive ROI.
    • SAP Commissions speed to the market allows us to quickly and cheaply change our direction to meet market demands.
    • Our sales force's engagement has drastically improved. We are now paying monthly instead of quarterly and have earned their trust.

    • As business consultants, Workato has greatly improved our offerings to our clients as well as improved the time frame to implement automated workflows and integrations.
    • For our clients, the return on investment is almost immediate. Once a Workato recipe is up and running (which can be done very fast), data is integrating, duplicate data entry and user errors are eliminated, and cross-company KPI metrics are easier to report than ever.
