SAP Build vs. WaveMaker

SAP Build is a strong and reliable partner with a rich FAQ and consulting power. New features make sense and are easy to distribute within the team and to end users. The community is nice, and there are many discussions on product development, shared solutions, and productivity improvements. UI is also one of the strongest points.

WaveMaker is a great platform for enterprise and SME's because it can save a lot on resources and time. The price is very low compared to the other competitors of WaveMaker and the best thing about WaveMaker is its no lock-in policy, you can always download the code and work on other IDEs. Overall an amazing platform.

• There is really not much to dislike about WaveMaker, but if there is something, I would like offline support(this is not available), since it is a cloud-based platform.

Because I think it is fairly easy to navigate. But at the same time, I still think it’s not mature enough for non-developers. At least for our use cases, it has been needed to perform coding in some sense. But ofc. I think joule will help a lot here.

There are, for example, great blog writings about automation cases and examples. The studio version is updated often. There are also useful OpenSAP online courses.

Compared to Mendix, we decided not to go for low code application building and in the other parts of Build, Build is stronger and better integrated with SAP. On the hand of Coding, using Build Code, gives us Joule, which understands SAP better and also have a tighter and more secure coupling with SAP services.

I have tested Android Studio, but I needed a complete IDE with commercial support, a team of competent people which can give me solutions in case of issues, and a tool easy to use, so I can concentrate on my projects. I am satisfied to date, starting in 2010 when I implemented on UNIX servers the applications compiled with Free WaveMaker (at that year).

• From a licensing perspective, the platform can kind of lock you in, but that's also true for other cloud platforms as well.
• Creating an app that fully works with your ERP (especially if you have S4HANA as the ERP System) is fast. It enables quick prototyping.
