The only positive I can really think of is the ability to capture experimental work done prior to finalizing specifications, but the system is so time consuming to use that we don't make much use of this feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- Very, very slow
- No undo feature
- cannot see access privileges of end user accounts
- not able to use as a real development tool - areas to capture notes and information are very hidden so are not typically used, no way to make notes on formulas
- difficult and time consuming to upload documents and attach to specifications (these tasks must be done separately)
- all of the character limits on in-program messages prevent communication within the system / usage of the workflow inboxes, and everything must be communicated in e-mail Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It covers all potential processes. Easy to customize and adapt it in accordance with your needs Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It has terrible UI. It seems like the UI got stuck in 90s.
Additionally, it is very difficult to apply patches. All patches should be deployed in certain order and it is easy to miss a patch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I know exactly how to use it. The training my company provided was helpful in my learning the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The system is incredibly slow. It takes an obscene amount of time to log my time. We should have a job number specifically for logging our time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Relatively easy to use once you learn it. Not a very steep learning curve. With a thorough guide to explain all the features, it would not be that difficult to learn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not intuitive, but not hard either. Old outdated system. The system feels sluggish to operate but that may be due to network speeds at your location. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is a tool where you can find, organize and filter information really easily. It allows to export information to be used in softwares like excel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is not intuitive to learn which report to request from the software when you are starting to learn the tool. The interface could be more user friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
SAP NetWeaver is a product that has been around for a long time and has been proved. Also the simplicity of managing master data using MDM with NetWeaver. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Being part of the SAP NW the MDM has to have its own Infrastructure setup which drives the cost of implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The application is comparatively light-weight. There are other ways to do all the SAP related stuff (from configurations to ABAP codes) but this application is tried and tested, and it has been there for years. It is a bit boring, but it gets the job done efficiently. I cannot imagine using SAP functionalities using a web browser. If the internet connection is fast and the required VPNs are configured properly, then NetWeaver works effortlessly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The interface is old-school. The user experience is not at all nice, if you compare it with a recent IDE, Moreover, there are problems with the connectivity at times - it gets disconnected. There are a couple of times when the application stops responding but that is majorly because of data overload. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
SAP Netweaver is a very powerful tool that allows my company to perform Enterprise Resource Planning, Business Intelligence, Master Data Management, Human Resource Management, Financials, et cetera. Overall this system is such a powerful tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The user interface is dated without running Fiori. It can also be overly complicated for basic users. Also for navigation there are too many levels and different ways to get to the same screen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
