Overall Satisfaction with SAP HANA

I have used SAP HANA before, but for my current organization, the main purpose was simply day-to-day processes reducing unnecessary maintenance options. Also, as we do have other SAP products in house, integration was smooth, too.

Pros

  • Improvement on data visibility
  • Cost management
  • Data management

Cons

  • Implementation was a little tough
  • Need to have proper infrastructure plan in place, otherwise cost may go up
  • Different versions of the product sometimes creates confusion
  • Great service expertise
  • User-friendly interface and easy to adapt, so analysis time was saved
  • IoT support is already included so don't need to bring in different products
I would like to discuss what I observed after reviewing similar products and found SAP HANA is doing better than others:
  • Real-time analytics are great and improving day by day
  • Developed our production processes at least 5x more
  • Improved business applications performance
  • Built-in reporting capability is outstanding, and that is something that is needed for senior management
For us, compatibility with SQL was the key point, as most of our databases are heavily based on this. Also SAP HANA has a variety of options available for data types, so in future, if we need to move to something else, it will be easy to integrate, as SAP HANA already covers the major data types.
It helped us a lot with reporting to provide more accurate visibility, which was unseen before. Now we do get information in a more structured way from databases, and our data transfer is secure and fast.
The main target was to get something that integrates with our current infrastructure in place and also fits in the same layer where my application and data resides.
Support has been amazing so far--any cases they handle, they handle with care, I get a prompt response from them.

Do you think SAP HANA Cloud delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with SAP HANA Cloud's feature set?

Yes

Did SAP HANA Cloud live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of SAP HANA Cloud go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy SAP HANA Cloud again?

Yes

For us, SAP HANA was the best option, as storing digital images was not part of our plan, so bringing it in did simplify our processes for applications. We also do have a large amount of data, so switching to SAP HANA saved time for reporting and analyzing it. I think if you have a better idea about your overall infrastructure, then SAP HANA is a great option because cost becomes the biggest challenge if your design plan for infrastructure is not clear.
