What differentiates SAP HANA Cloud from other similar products?
SAP has covered long journey to reach to a maturity that it provides in its products. I suppose they require to work with market concepts of Microsoft products. The ease to implement and use Microsoft products are not that disappointing as it feels they release products thinking end users as non-technical which SAP management lacks for sure.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
The maturity of the product which they developed being long term market plater.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Untested features that are released and start breaking the existing solutions.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Please review product features and competitive providers like Microsoft and Oracle to name a few. Do a survey with industries using all available features gather their insights and compare what part of those insights you need in your business and which solution suits best. There are good solutions that are critical to us but not available in SAP HANA Cloud for now and so we have to wait for SAP to release them and its time taking activity. After investing millions into a product it is bit disappointing to know that some critical features were not in this but other technology providers.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Continually Improving Product
- Trustworthy
- Efficient Service
Cons
- Under Delivered

Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates SAP HANA Cloud from other similar products?
It's a true multi-model database (relational, graph, spatial, etc.) with real-time transactional and analytical processing (HTAP). Its deep, native integration with SAP applications is unmatched, offering embedded machine learning and a unified data lake solution, making it ideal for SAP-centric and real-time insight needs.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
My favorite aspect of SAP HANA Cloud is its true multi-model processing coupled with its in-memory, real-time analytics (HTAP) capabilities.
What do you dislike most about this product?
My biggest gripe with SAP HANA Cloud is its initial complexity and steep learning curve, especially for those new to the SAP world. Navigating its extensive features and SAP-specific ecosystem can be overwhelming, making the onboarding process feel quite daunting at first.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Prioritize if you heavily use SAP applications or need real-time operational analytics and multi-model data processing. Be prepared for an initial learning curve if new to SAP's ecosystem. Evaluate its robust security and integrated data lake. It's powerful, but assess if its strengths align with your specific enterprise needs and existing landscape.
Pros
- Continually Improving Product
- Performance Enhancing
- Enables Productivity
