A quick review on BW/4HANA from a techie's point of view
We use BW/4HANA for analytics and reporting. It is used across the enterprise. Our initial deployment has been across finance with a view to migrate our classical BW environment over to BW/4HANA. Our currently classical BW has reached end of life and we need to commence the migration over to BW/4HANA soon.
- Better preformance
- Ability to perform hybrid data modelling
- Better integration to non-SAP data sources
- Simplified data modelling
- Still has reliance of ABAP stack.
- Not all exception aggregation conditions are pushed down to HANA
- BW-IP should be included in offering as it was previously.
- BW workspaces could improved, has huge potential.

- Efficient.
- Technical part can be difficult if you're not familiar with it.
- Implementation.

Fast and Reliable
SAP BW/4HANA is the main source of metadata information in our company. Besides a lot of standarised reports made by a specialized team, we have the possibility to download any kind of data through BW. This possibility allows us to be more independent when we have a specific need. It's easy to use and fast enough to cover our needs.
- It gives you a lot of data
- Could be more user friendly
