  ### 6. Amazing Capabilities in a Dated Software

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 25, 2016

**What do you like best about SAP NetWeaver?**

The best part about SAP NetWeaver is the virtually endless possibilities for analyzing and manipulating data.  SAP is directly linked to our financials, billings, revenue, expenses, T&E reporting - and the list goes on and on.  Since our data is able to be connected to one main computing platform, we are able to create various reports with all the information at our fingertips.  This has been especially useful in my field as a financial analyst.  We can create reports with any information that we choose to be linked to SAP.  

**What do you dislike about SAP NetWeaver?**

I think the system can improve upon its user-friendliness and overall outdated design.  Even after using this application for a year, I still constantly find myself trying to remember how to save a shortcut to my "Favorite" links.  Additionally, I feel that some of the paths needed to go through to reach the data can be excessive.  For example, when I am trying to create a report or change the design of a report, it seems to take exceptionally long to find the fields I'm looking for.  Additionally, not that product design is the main feature of this software, but it couldn't hurt to undergo a newer/cleaner look as opposed to the archaic Microsoft Office design.  

**Recommendations to others considering SAP NetWeaver:**

This is a great product that is typically easy to use.  There may be some rough patches to get through (i.e. sorting through all the reports available to the user), but having all our information in one place to manage is a analyst's haven.

**What problems is SAP NetWeaver solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As mentioned above, there are countless reports that my company relies on SAP NetWeaver to create.  These reports ultimately are the source of our financial support for our business.  Our company heavily relies on the different features available to us to record, manage, analyze, and ultimately provide data to our employees and other users of our information.  

  ### 7. SAP is a decent software for ERP use

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nicole H. | Buyer, Automotive, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 06, 2016

**What do you like best about SAP NetWeaver?**

The best part about SAP net weaver is the accessibility. I can access this anywhere there is an internet signal. 

**What do you dislike about SAP NetWeaver?**

I strongly dislike the transaction codes that have very little rhyme or reason to them. For example, purchase order t code is ME32K. This makes no sense. I also don't like how each t code requires you to go back to the home page after you're finished before you can enter another t code. This is very inefficient. 

**Recommendations to others considering SAP NetWeaver:**

Training can last months

**What problems is SAP NetWeaver solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Purchase orders and internal contracts. The benefits are these POs are easily accessible via the web. 

  ### 8. SAP NetWeaver

**What do you dislike about SAP NetWeaver?**

Interface is slow and old school - though this may be due to the implementation in our case.

**What do you dislike about SAP NetWeaver?**

The design is quite outdated and it can be difficult to locate simple functions to organise information.

**Reviewed Date:** April 18, 2015

**What do you like best about SAP NetWeaver?**

Sap is a fantastic platform for inventory and stock monitoring. It keeps track of customer demographic data,sales orders,back orders, and material price. 

**What do you dislike about SAP NetWeaver?**

The software is linear and kind of stiff. There is no partition to automatically update client software, and you have to go through a lot of tabs. 

**What problems is SAP NetWeaver solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As a user and a CSR, I deal with customer inquiries and complaints from product price, availability, usage, and sales order creation. The one benefit of this program is to augment orders even if they are already being processed.

  ### 16. The One Integration Platform 

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Krunal R. | Technical Compliance - Project manager, Consumer Electronics, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 16, 2014

**What do you like best about SAP NetWeaver?**

AP NetWeaver serves as the technical foundation of SAP's Business
  Process Platform offerings by providing capabilities for service provisioning, composition (service consumption), and governance. The SAP NetWeaver Technology Map comprises all these capabilities and depicts them in a structured map that enables you to drill down from top-level technology areas (for example, Lifecycle Management) to individual capabilities (for example, Administration, Monitoring, and so on).
SAP NetWeaver is an open technology platform that offers a comprehensive set of technologies for running mission-critical business applications and integrating people, processes, and information. 
The new technology map is not linked to a specific SAP NetWeaver product or release, but contains all capabilities provided by the SAP NetWeaver platform. 
One of the products names, SAP Netweaver Application Server is my favorite as it plays as a web application server for SAP application solutions and tools. It can be easily integrated with other 3rd party applications. Another product which I admire the most is the SAP Netweaver Developer Studio (NWDS), have used this tool for migration of J2ee applications into SAP Netweaver Infrastructure. 

**What do you dislike about SAP NetWeaver?**

I would say the source framework and it's cost is sometimes un affordable by mid size companies. 

**Recommendations to others considering SAP NetWeaver:**

I would strongly recommend this product if you'd like to align your SAP products and integrate them on one central place while at the same time it's easy to use. 

**What problems is SAP NetWeaver solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As mentioned earlier, running, implementation and deployment of SAP portal application, run & maintenance of  SAP WEB AS and migration of J2EE applications into SAP NWDS. Benefits include - 
1. Easy integration with other/3rd party applications
2. External facing customer portal is easy to maintain
3. SAP Netweaver AS can easily accept multiple forms of authentication, in my case we use logon tickets mechanism
4. User Authentication & Security concerns are very less and have a strong mechanism in place
5. SAP Netweaver AS supports HTTPS which is widely used and accepted by other industry platforms and standards.
