Overall Satisfaction with SAP Business Technology Platform

We are using it to migrate SAP Process Orchestration system into SAP Business Technology Platform and connect non SAP system over cloud to send data. We have a problem with the cost associated with the actual migration and assessment and finding the right resources with the actual expertise to support the assessment and migration.

Pros

  • Connection to 3rd party system
  • Visualization
  • Non-ABAP developers

Cons

  • PI/PO Migration Dashboard
  • Easy Connectivity
  • Simple login
  • Work by developer has reduced
  • Connectivity to external system
  • Automated processes
Initial build for developer was hard to navigate but hands on solution enabled future usability seamless. Connection to third party software and application are easily integrated and worked well for non-SAP developers to deploy their applications easily on the runtime environment. I had the opportunity to limit the data flow and pass only the needed data.
I have not seen or used any of the use cases

We had some scenarios where we actually needed to know what is the actual cost associated with the migration and impact analysis of the current SAP PI/PO system and how the migration will be done without any downtime or impact for the actual production system. Dashboard with the assessment was really helpful.

Seamless integration with external system and dashboard to monitor the data flow and analysis are very essential for the business.
