SAP customers are moving to implement SAP S/4HANA, SAP’s latest technological advancement, to take advantage of improved user experience, streamlined transactions, real-time data, table simplification, flexible APIs, and new functionality. As a suite of cloud-based applications, it’s the next step in Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), which make migration an attractive option.
SAP S/4 HANA has continued to evolve over the last few years since it first launched, which has inspired some business to take a wait-and-see approach. The hesitancy of businesses to jump in with the latest technology is also linked to the reported challenges that business face when implementing SAP S/4HANA. Despite the challenges, more businesses are moving forward with implementation, due in large part to SAP’s end-of-support deadline in 2025 on legacy software like ECC.
