Companies can't remove reviews or game the system. Here's why

Not mature enough to handle SAP Data Migration. SAP removed the trial version from the Cloud appliance library. I believe this will be the future ETL tool for all SAP Data Migration, Integration & Warehousing Projects. SAP needs to have more attention & address all gaps rapidly.
  • Data Quality Management
  • Data Science Capability
  • Data Orchestration
  • SAP S/4HANA BAPI, IDOC, API Adapters
  • ETL Components to perform complex transformation
  • User Friendly, Drag & Drop functionality with no code
It's less appropriate for S/4HANA Data migration, this might work only with S/4 Migration Cockpit. Suitable for Data Quality Management, easily integrated with SAP Saas Products such as SAP Data Warehouse Cloud, SAP HANA Cloud etc; Complement with each other
  • Maturity
  • Need Rapid Improvement
  • Still evolving
Cloud based, Future ETL tool
SAP recently removed the trial version from CAL. I don't see any recent development, adding more functionality to the product components.
I would say MODERATE, still an evolving phase. I foresee this will be the future for all SAP Data/Integration projects
yes

We use SAP Data Intelligence mainly for Data visualization, Export data, and Data filtering. We use it across all our departments and it has enabled us to streamline all our critical processes. It is a robust tool for controlling and assessing data that helps us in making informed decisions. Overall it has been beneficial for our business outcomes.
  • Data Visualization
  • Report generation is convenient.
  • Data can be easily exported to excel sheets.
  • It is not the best when it comes to scalability.
  • Lack of provision for a free trial.
  • Customer service is not up to the mark.
SAP Data Intelligence has served us for several purposes mainly for processing big data. It has allowed us to bridge the gap between the Information technology and Business side within our organization. It can easily work with both structured and unstructured data. Analytical solutions like reporting and auditing have been made hassle-free due to SAP Data Intelligence.
  • Since we streamlined our business processes, we have been able to improve our working efficiency.
  • Time management has improved significantly.
  • Not very cost-effective
SAP Data Intelligence provides one of the best services for data visualization and handling. It provides a wide range of customizable features that enabled us to create a system as per our requirements. Pre-existing relations with other SAP modules have added an additional benefit for our organization and deployment of the same was not as complex as for other options.
The overall support of SAP Data Intelligence in comparison to other SAP modules is not up to the mark and should be improved. while implementing the platform we faced a few challenges and could not receive a timely response. Although there is a delay in response the knowledge of the tech support team is commendable.
SAP Data Intelligence has a very intuitive UI. Although usability at the initial stages can be a tad complex eventually it is pretty easy to navigate through. The dashboard is ergonomically efficient and data filtering is highly optimized which allows us to get the required information very easily. Our team hasn't faced any major issues in terms of usability.
As mentioned earlier we have integrated SAP Data Intelligence with other SAP modules like SAP Commerce Cloud, SAP HANA, to name a few. Data transferring and exchange between these platforms has been seamless. You can also export data into excel and many other formats which allows multiple data type support.

ETL is the primary focus. Connections and validations between all sources of information. When it comes to large data management, SAP is a must-have. We were able to cut down on processing time and increase the output of our data team as a result.
  • Additionally, you have the option of exporting your filtered data to Excel for additional analysis.
  • AP As far as software goes, it's well-known and rock-solid.
  • Has both on-premise and private cloud deployment options.
  • Only a few posts a month.
  • SAP offers free trials for other services, such as SAC, but not for SAP Data Intelligence, which does not have a free tier.
  • Occasionally, it appears to be older software.
It is possible to decrease the integration between SAP ERP and the GUI system by using SAP DI. A wide spectrum of integration and a dramatic improvement in the business will be achieved.
  • Has made a significant impact on the reduction of our operational expenses.
  • Through its analysis, it has also provided us with updated and enhanced information.
  • SAP Data Intelligence has made data processing and analysis a breeze.
A potential cloud ERP solution provided by SAP Data Intelligence will allow our company to thrive in the future. Using SAP Data Intelligence's enhanced capabilities, we can increase our organization's productivity and efficiency by automating routine processes and making better use of resources. Using SAP Data is beneficial to our company, we believe.
Because this program provides the greatest platform for our firm as a data management tool, we decided to employ it. End-to-end machine learning activities are also provided for the entire tool cycle by this program. This application's simplicity and conciseness make it a good fit for beginning users who are unfamiliar with more advanced capabilities.

In my organization, SAP Data Intelligence is used in a few selected departments. It helps me to integrate data from flat files and external applications, process, and manage it in one spot.
  • Is deployed both on-premise in our data and on private cloud
  • Enhance data governance through discovery, profiling, and cataloging data
  • Data orchestration and monitoring
  • Can’t complain since vendor support team offers free assistance, automatic updates, and detailed documentation for tutorials.
SAP Data Intelligence suits all business scenarios that encompasses data. It simplifies exploration, enticement, modeling and visualization of data.
  • Data ingestion, processing, and enrichment automation require no manual procedures.
  • No-code environment saves time
  • Integration with SAP and non-SAP tools improves productivity.
Support at SAP quickly understands our issues, responding with links to tutorials and article tutorials.
I have never had challenges with SAP Data Intelligence as it has eye-appealing and slick design UI.
Standard connectors; both native and open protocols for SAP and non-SAP improve efficiency, saves time, and improve ROI. HDFS, SAP API Business Hub and REST APIs are the main connectors that I use.

SAP Data Intelligence is used in all company departments, but not all employees use it at workstations. On my end, it helps me to better understand business data by discovering, connecting and enriching unstructured, geospatial, and structured disjointed data in SAP and non-SAP sources.
  • Has robust tools that make it easy to process disparate data.
  • Machine learning capabilities improve innovation and enhance streamlined operations.
  • Offers comprehensive metadata management rules, which improve compliance.
  • Unfortunately, SAP offers a free trial for other services such as SAC, but they failed to include a free tier for SAP Data Intelligence.
Machine-generated bases modeling on SAP Data Intelligence help us predict complex business processes, thus making decisions prior to impacts.
  • Automation of data management slashed tasks by over 60% in most departments for the first 8 months.
  • Metadata catalogs have enabled us to categorize data from disjointed sources in one place.
  • It runs multiple ML models which enhances flexibility when managing data.
  • TIBCO Cloud Integration (including BusinessWorks and Scribe)
Unlike SAP Data Intelligence, TIBCO Cloud Integration is overpriced and does not run a large number of ML models such as Python, Go, R among other open sources.
Whenever I face challenges when using this solution, SAP quickly responds to my tickets, but I must be logged in.
SAP Data Intelligence has been useful in my day-to-day business processes by making it effective to understand data through data profiling, catalog, self-service data preparations among other data fabric processes.
We rely more on Cloud connectors for SAP and non-SAP. The connection between SAP HANA and SAP Data Intelligence has simplified the extraction of data on reports.
