Overall Satisfaction with SAP Cloud Platform

For the moment the usage is limited. It was almost a forced option to comply with Spanish SII legal requirement.
  • The focus here is about the cloud process integration, that is part of SAP Integration Suite: the strengths are the pre-built scenarios for legal requirements.
  • For cloud process integration, cloud-to-cloud integration flows are convenient.
  • Typical plus of a cloud solution.
  • Application-oriented monitoring is needed for cloud process integration.
  • Self-monitoring and alert capabilities are needed for cloud process integration.
  • The user administration could be much more friendly.
  • Very fast implementation of Spanish SII solution, and free/easy fixes to contents.
  • The licensing cost is reasonable.
  • Productive go-live very fast.
Exactly, we enabled an on-premise to cloud solution. We did this to comply with Spanish SII legal requirement. We benefit from pre-built integration content, and the maintenance/update of the same included in license cost.
We have no impacts from this because we have not yet used these capabilities. For the moment we are using on-premise solution for these.
It is weaker compared to competitors:
1) Weaker design environment.
2) Weaker monitoring functionalities.
3) Not very intuitive user interface.

I chose it because the integration content needed was pre-built.
Generally I'm not a fan of cloud solutions, since the cloud owner has too much power over solution costs, licensing, evolution, and maintenance. Cloud solutions should be used only for non mission critical applications. I used if for a non mission critical application. I always would consider SAP Integration Suite for non mission critical applications in the future.
