Overall Satisfaction with SAP Build
We use SAP Build the applications SAP Build Code, SAP Build Process Automations and SAP Build Work Zone, standard editions. We use these products to build Side-by-Side extension on SAP S4/HANA. And in the end expose the extensions, tasks and standard S4 tiles all together on one portal in Build Work Zone.
Pros
- Easy to use IDE in the cloud
- Simple way to create Workflows
- One entry point for everything SAP
Cons
- As it consists of different productions, integrating them could be improved
- The documentation is not always complete
- Vision of the Build Lobby when using different subaccounts for different purposes (Code vs Process)
- It makes upgrading the core SAP system easier
- Building Processes is easier for Functional Teams
- You need less developers
Yes, we have and in that you find that integrations should be easy. However as the documentation is not always complete, the initial setup is a lot harder than it should have to be. For example connecting Build to API Developer Hub it turned out that the API Key needed to have a specific authorization. This was not in the documentation. Luckily SAP Support was very helpful though
Using SAP Build Process Automation we can create workflows for certain aspects of SAP. For example to process some less structured data and use ML to assess what it should be. If the percentage of certainty is high enough, we can steer the flow to auto accept and update SAP. If it is not, those few cases can be manually checked and adjusted if necessary.
Compared to Mendix, we decided not to go for low code application building and in the other parts of Build, Build is stronger and better integrated with SAP. On the hand of Coding, using Build Code, gives us Joule, which understands SAP better and also have a tighter and more secure coupling with SAP services.
