Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I'd like to first thank you, Sap, for building this tool. Every now and then, a client comes with a request to have something that he can handle and have a lot less coding required. If their budget allows, we particularly recommend using SAP Build for his requirements and we have some amazing talent in-house to use its low-code environment.

Pros

  • Its drag and drop editor is even simpler than the very popular WordPress
  • No code feature to build any type of website
  • Not a lot of technical expertise is required to use this tool
  • The client loves it as they can themselves use it for quick tweaks

Cons

  • Not sure for every site, but sometimes the code does not work well on specific Android devices like Samsung s20 and s20 FE
  • It is not as modern like some other tools available in the market like Canva
  • The UI could be better

Return on Investment

  • Amazing overall experience. Our clients have grown well.
  • By ROI, we have seen significant growth in our net profits.
  • There aren't a lot of SAP Build devs out there, so we get some handsome hourly rate for that work.
