The local support of partners like ours is very strong since we know the Peruvian reality and also the uses and customs of Peruvian companies, to this is added the global support of SAP and the support of thousands of specialists for each of the solutions that are offered with quite acceptable response times.

Likelihood to Recommend

SAP S/4HANA is very suitable for financial, logistics, and operational areas. Companies in the manufacturing, services, and distribution sectors can benefit from the implementation in very short times with many standard functionalities.
In scenarios where a specialized solution is required, the acquisition of verticals or industry solutions is recommended, which increases the cost of implementation, but it is also possible to implement in a first stage with the basic ERP and then gradually extend it.
