Suited for high-performing data analytics.

What are the best aspects of this product?

Because this software is basically an In-memory database, it excels in analytics activities that require heavy workloads and many use cases. Aside from the main function, it also comes with excellent auxiliary features like Fuzzy Search and Predictive Analytics.

What aspects are problematic or could work better?

What I dislike most about HANA is its pricing which is in my opinion, quite high. Not to mention that maintenance can be troublesome if not planned carefully. My other complaints are that the configuration options are semi code-based instead of being fully- and that the SDK support is underwhelming at this point.

What specific problems in your company were solved by this product?

The database is perfect for our analytical needs especially since the In-memory views can display large tabulated data within a fraction of a second.

Are you a current user of this product?
