Areas of SAP S_4HANA that could be improved or enhanced include the evolving aspects of the application over time. There are other SAP applications such as SuccessFactors and Ariba that integrate with SAP S_4HANA. In recent years, SAP introduced an addition called RISE with SAP, which allows companies to use cloud solutions instead of requiring their own premises hardware. SAP partners with cloud providers such as Azure, Amazon, and Google, assisting companies in migrating from hardware to cloud solutions. A challenge that arises is the lack of immediate expertise when raising tickets for problem resolution with SAP, leading to delays. We have asked SAP to improve this area to provide users with better benefits from the cloud solution, as we encounter this issue frequently.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It is an affordable ERP system and rich in functionality, providing good control of processes."
"The tool's usability is straightforward."
"The three most crucial pieces are the financial modules, the banking module, and the management module."
"I have found the solution has many valuable features such as a user-friendly mobile platform, notification settings, and the ability to do many customizations."
"SAP has many functionalities and a high level of detail so that you can manage all processes in detail without any issues."
"In SAP S/4HANA, an interesting feature is the quality inspection and delivery process within the ERP system. For instance, if there is a delivery for a project part that requires quality inspection and receives feedback from the customer, this can be recorded through the mobile application. The responsible person can visit the site, open the system using the mobile app, and add remarks and notes directly into the system without the need for paper or extensive communication."
"It is really fast, and it is also very stable."
"It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The user experience is quite attractive, and maybe the efficiency around the consolidation part as well."
"The core accounting model is robust, so we don't have any issues with it. It has industry-specialized modules like retail, hospitality, and manufacturing. Many industrial-specific modules are very helpful. It's a very robust, reliable, and simple-to-use product. In my experience, it's straightforward."
"The most valuable feature of SAP S/4HANA is the innovational process, and we are able to receive more efficiency or accuracy than previous versions."
"I have no issues with the stability of the product, as everything seems to be fine."
 

Cons

"The build-in dashboard and reporting customization should be improved."
"The reporting Module should be improved and a drag and drop functionality should be added."
"The system has enough controls, but still there is scope for improvement."
"Improvements could be made regarding user-friendliness and transitioning fully to a web version. Features like forex reconciliation and a cash flow planning module could enhance the solution."
"I think anything related to manufacturing public clouds could be improved."
"I would not say it is a 100% stable."
"The solution is very complex, and stability is based on maturity."
"The solution could have a better user experience. However, they are working a lot on the user experience and they have come up with various applications, such as mobile applications. This was lacking over the last two years."
"Maybe its user interface and reporting can be improved across the board, but it is manageable."
"I have found scalability difficult to achieve in SAP S4HANA because the license is quite expensive."
"SAP has packages in countries like Poland, Spain, and Italy for these regulations, such as e-invoicing. However, we are missing these standard packages here in Turkey."
"Licensing is quite expensive. It works with yearly licenses and it's ugly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the tool's pricing an eight out of ten. Customizations can cost you extra money."
"The solution is moderately priced. The licensing cost is around sixty thousand USD for annual maintenance. If you're using an application-specific license, it is a little cheaper. I rate the pricing a five out of ten."
"The price of the solution is fair compared to competitors."
"The price of the solution is reasonable but some modules can be expensive. When comparing SAP S4HANA to other solutions, such as Oracle, it is not expensive."
"I would rate the pricing at around six to nine out of ten depending on the edition and deployment type."
"Available at a high price"
"I feel that the product is a bit expensive."
"The price could be lower."
"The tool's price can be reasonable for large organizations, but it might not be suitable for small organizations with a small number of users."
"The problem with SAP is that it offers two licenses, namely runtime license and enterprise license. If you have a runtime license, then you are doomed since you can't take any data out from the tool."
"SAP S/4HANA is expensive."
