Overall Satisfaction with SAP S/4HANA Cloud

SAP S/4HANA Cloud is used by our organisation to generate purchase orders, sales, billing and a lot of other areas. It is used by the whole organisation and addresses all our business needs.

Pros

  • SAP S/4HANA Cloud helps with intelligent reporting.
  • SAP S/4HANA Cloud helps in a lot of new functional key areas.
  • SAP S/4HANA Cloud helps speed up business transactions.

Cons

  • Machine learning & more intelligent chatbot functionality.
  • Data modelling CDS views.
  • Improved functions to cover more functional areas.
  • Positive ROI: high-volume order processing in simplified less timing
  • Positive ROI: less human interaction intelligent work
  • Negative ROI: costing prospective for some customers
The earlier version of SAP S/4HANA Cloud and its ERP business functions were available in SAP ERP (ECC). There we were not having much to do on Intelligent Framework or Machine Learning capabilities. The SAP S/4HANA Cloud provides data for SAP Leonardo as well. The new SAP S/4HANA Cloud has more scalability and more functions to explore in comparison to SAP ECC.
SAP S/4HANA Cloud is well suited for more interactive transactions with high-volume users & time saving with faster execution. Less suited areas would be lower number of users and manageable slow transactions which do not have much effect on the business.

SAP Adoption

  • Implemented in-house
after considering migration approach, the team and end-users were trained and made prepare to understand what to expect at what next phases
Change management was a big part of the implementation and was well-handled
SAP use cases, SAP rapid build for S/4 hana, every team members previous cumulative experience
via pre-defined Change management processes. Change management periodic meeting gets conducted by the Change coordinator team
every customer has their own experience for their S/4 hana transition journey. This will depend on what things client wants to achieve out of this S/4 hana transition, since all ECC system details may not stay relevant and also might not require during the S/4 hana use for the business
Probably will try using other methodologies. Also since upcoming versions would have more features, hence the technical approach might also change in future while planning
