Pros and Cons

Customization.
Processing capabilities.
Programming capabilities.

Native connectivity.
Not easy to use, need to reach experts even for simple transformations.

We did compare with classic SAP BW but took SAP Data Services. We had SAP BW in place, that is why we evaluated the tool. The advantage of Data Services is that provides more connection flexibility as well as transformation. It is much more suitable when not all systems are SAP.

Support Rating

We did not have any problem which needed to be addressed to support.
