Likelihood to Recommend

SAP HANA provides powerful functionality. There is often doubt as to whether or not, in practice, the business value can offset these considerable costs. The challenge actually lies in the fact that the technology in itself does not create any value; it only enables the realization of valuable applications that can generate business value.
