Overall Satisfaction with SAP HANA
We are using SAP HANA to access the information faster than before. Also, it is being used by our BI department to get history data and build reports/charts in WebFOCUS reporting tool. It is being used by the whole organization. It is offering some insights into hidden information that we would not have obtained before.
- It does really good if we combine all select statements into one. The information is obtained almost instantly.
- It is also good in getting info in the calculation and other types of views so other BI tools can access it.
- It is good at replacing other databases like Oracle.
- Wish SAP had notified us that without changing select statements using inner joins, it would not become faster.
- HANA SQL script is a little hard to learn.
- Same goes with different views. They are a little hard to learn.
- Users are able to get information faster than before, in the form of reports, charts etc.
We did not review any other products since we were planning to go to S/4 HANA, which uses HANA as a database.
