According to TrustRadius reviews, the total cost of ownership for SAP Integration Suite is highly dependent on the integration landscape. Reviewers find the solution to be cost-effective for integrations within the SAP ecosystem, with some noting reduced licensing costs compared to other middleware platforms. Conversely, costs can increase significantly when integrating with non-SAP systems. The licensing model is described as complex, though some find it cheaper than third-party middleware. Reviewers also mention a pricing model change from a message-count to a CPU basis for those migrating from older SAP products. Some users employ specific features to minimize costs, but others report the price can be a barrier for certain use cases.
