Overall Satisfaction with SAP Build

We have many teams that do not have an engineering team paired with them, but that still need to develop applications for automating processes and speeding up repetitive functions. These teams utilize Build to create applications in a no-code environment. These teams would not otherwise have the tech background to be able to create the apps on their own.

Pros

  • Graphical interface creation is easy and makes the applications easy to use
  • Logic flow snippets can be saved and reused across teams, so we dont have to 'recreate the wheel.'
  • The entire SDK environment runs very smoothly, with no clunky or confusing layouts

Cons

  • It doesnt integrate especially well with 3rd party tools like Outlook, Word, etc.
  • Licensing structure/pricing tiers can be confusing and difficult to navigate
  • By being able to create their own apps, teams can automate repetitive tasks and ultimately save time (and time = money).
  • SAP Build has allowed my org to better enforce consistent compliance standards across teams since each team is able to reuse organization-level logic, but put their own spin on it.
We have not done this.
Build's workflows allow us to ensure consistent compliance standards are enforced across multiple teams. It has also reduced the time it takes for teams to complete manual processes; for example, the HR team built an app that allows them to save all candidate details in one comprehensive record, eliminating the need to search multiple places for information.
Build can be used by non-technical people with little to no ramp-up time. Even employees who have never written a single line of code in their life find it easy to use.

Do you think SAP Build delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with SAP Build's feature set?

Yes

Did SAP Build live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of SAP Build go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy SAP Build again?

Yes

SAP Build is excellent for teams that have a need to develop applications but do not have the technical know-how to do so, nor do they have a team that is able to do it for them. For teams that are able to code on their own, or do have support, it may be less valuable for them.
