"A Powerful Foundation for Innovation with a Steep Learning Curve"
5/5
What do you like best about SAP Business Technology Platform?

What I appreciate most about SAP BTP is its ability to "keep the core clean," enabling companies to innovate without putting their essential systems at risk. Rather than altering the main ERP code which can make future upgrades challenging and hazardous BTP serves as a unified "sidecar" environment. Here, you can develop custom extensions, integrate various applications, and utilize analytics, all without interfering with the core system. This strategy provides businesses with the flexibility to create modern, cloud-native solutions and seamlessly connect their entire IT landscape, all while keeping their critical operational core standardized, secure, and easy to maintain.

What do you dislike about SAP Business Technology Platform?

The main downsides of SAP BTP are its high complexity and unpredictable pricing structure. Users often struggle to forecast costs accurately due to convoluted credit models, while developers face a steep learning curve exacerbated by fragmented documentation. Additionally, the platform can feel over-engineered, requiring excessive administrative setup for simple tasks that would be straightforward on other platforms.

"Seamless Integration and Automation for Effortless Testing"
4.5/5
What do you like best about SAP Business Technology Platform?

Everything is seamlessly connected, providing me with immediate access to real, up to date business data for testing. It allows me to automate workflows and deploy test apps without the hassle of complicated integrations or setup. Additionally, its robust security and centralized management give me peace of mind about data governance, which is especially reassuring when working in enterprise environments. Overall, it speeds up my test cycles, improves their accuracy, and makes the entire process much less stressful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SAP Business Technology Platform?

While the platform is impressively flexible and powerful, I find that some of the advanced configuration options and analytics setups can be somewhat overwhelming and time consuming, especially for testers who want to get started quickly. Navigating the more technical features often requires additional documentation or assistance from an SAP administrator. When working with complex test cases, setting up sandboxed or isolated environments isn’t always as straightforward as I would prefer. I would really appreciate having simpler controls and more accessible deep-dive features for users who aren’t developers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best multi-cloud platform-as-a-service (PaaS)"
5/5
What do you like best about SAP Business Technology Platform?

I'm impressed with it's improved efficiency in automating tasks and processes, it helps reduce manual effort, minimize errors, and free up employees to focus on higher-value activities. Quite an awesome platform for integration flexibility. For new employee onboarding and financial reporting, SAP is doing a great job. For well trained SAP administrators, it's ease of use and integration with other tools is a plus. Our company is frequently using SAP platform for production line and financial reporting and a lot other stuff. I have never contact customer support for which I can't comment. But overall, it's the best platform I have seen during my professional experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SAP Business Technology Platform?

The downsides include expensive licensing, implementation challenges. Although SAP is a feature rich platform but it's still highly complex to operate, due to which sometimes companies need well trained SAP administrators or even hire SAP consultants to do their job.

4.5/5
What do you like best about SAP Business Technology Platform?

What I like most about SAP Business Technology Platform is how it brings integration, data, and application development into one unified environment. Instead of working with disconnected tools, BTP provides a central platform where you can extend existing SAP systems, integrate third-party applications, and manage data more efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SAP Business Technology Platform?

An area that can be improved is documentation and clarity around certain configurations. While there are many resources available, finding very specific implementation guidance can take time. In some cases, setup and configuration can also feel more complex than expected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SAP Business Technology Platform?

I deeply value the seamless integration SAP Business Technology Platform provides with other SAP products. This capability is especially crucial when connecting raw SAP data with tools like SAP Analytics Cloud, allowing me to integrate external API use efficiently within the platform. Additionally, SAP Business Technology Platform excels in enabling easy construction of ETL processes which facilitate preparing SAP data for visualizations effortlessly. Being a cloud service, it demands very low effort for maintenance, which ensures smooth operations and eases the overall management tasks significantly. These qualities make the platform highly beneficial and accommodate a variety of demanding use cases with ease. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SAP Business Technology Platform?

Loading time sometimes takes too much time; this is a pure backend problem. It would be helpful if we could scale the UI server if the bottleneck is there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great operation platform, held back by weird decisions and slow loads"
4/5
What do you like best about SAP Business Technology Platform?

On BTP I can develop and run my apps easily. Things work reliably and many problems are solved for me or I have best practices at hand.

Beeing Bld to run docker containers is also amazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SAP Business Technology Platform?

The BTP cockpit loads very slowly. My focus is broken if I open it and reloads take forever. The new destination view is completely broken for me, that it does not load at all. Also pricing is in transparent and not suitable for smaller organizations.

I also am sometimes confused by similar offerings, for example having 3 eventing solutions does not make it clear what to use unless you dig deep. And some stuff is not available as a trial.

In general you have to go through so many hoops to get some Services, that really drags things out and is annoying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Takes Time to Learn, but Delivers Strong Value"
4.5/5
What do you like best about SAP Business Technology Platform?

What I appreciate most about SAP Business Technology Platform is its comprehensive and integrated nature. The platform offers an impressive range of features, bringing together analytics, application development, integration, and data management within a single environment. Once you become familiar with the interface, it is quite user-friendly, particularly due to the low-code tools. Although the initial implementation was more challenging than I anticipated, the available documentation, as well as the community and customer support, helped me overcome those hurdles. I regularly use the platform to build integration projects between SAP S/4HANA and external applications, and it has proven to be reliable. The integration capabilities truly stand out, and as a consultant, I have been able to learn a variety of tools quickly thanks to the extensive product catalogue. Overall, the platform feels designed for scalability and innovation, rather than being just another technical solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SAP Business Technology Platform?

One aspect I find challenging about SAP Business Technology Platform is its initial complexity. While the platform offers robust features, it takes time to fully grasp how all the components interact. The user interface can be less than intuitive, and I often have to navigate through multiple menus just to locate basic settings. Implementing the platform also calls for thorough planning; it’s not something that can be set up quickly without prior experience. For instance, when I was configuring a new application environment, I had to complete numerous setup steps before it was ready for testing. Even though I use SAP BTP regularly, I still frequently consult the documentation. Overall, SAP BTP has significant potential, but it requires patience and consistent practice to use it effectively in everyday tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
