We use the SAP Cloud ERP to record for some of the business data, where mainly employee and operational data is stored. This is used in our downstream workflows. For us it addresses the data fragmentation issue where we sync the SAP Cloud ERP data into Snowflake environment for reporting purpose. It also integrates well Boomi and Azure ecosystem.
Pros
Centralised data for analytics meaning we are able to pull structured data into snowflake easily.
Cloud native tool due to which resource scaling happens effortlessly & we don't have to worry about maintenance and stuff.
It has built in Integration with Entra ID, which makes our life easier to manage the Single-Sign on authentication.
Cons
Initial configuration is bit challenging for small teams, eg. learning the mapping of custom fields into Snowflake.
Administrative console sometimes lags / feels sluggish.
The licensing & Infrastructure cost can be quite high for small projects / orgnizations.
Likelihood to Recommend
SAP Cloud ERP does offer a free trial, to try out if this fits your requirement / need. If you have Azure environment then implementing identity management (using SSO) makes the administrative work so much easier. However it's less appropriate (case by case basis) for initial setup due to steep learning curve and cost implications.

We have stored the Employee Related information on SAP Cloud ERP to manage our Employees Details. We have integrations in place to get the information related to Employment Tenure or Region the employee is working in or details like email, and phone numbers. We have many integrations between SAP Cloud ERP and Boomi, then also with Azure ADF. We are fetching data from SAP Cloud ERP then transform the data like the business needs for reporting purpose. Then we load the data into Boomi's platform to get the insights of the data.
Pros
Employee Management
Sales
Marketing
Integrations
Cons
The API Documentation to integrate them better with other systems.
The response generally we get through API is well structured but too much information is there. The dataset seems like really nested. We have some systems which provides us really good structured data even though it is highly nested but does not feel like SAP Cloud ERP.
The document where we can go through different solutions they have implemented to reach the depth of the data or the node of the data.
Likelihood to Recommend
