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.

"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten...Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"SAP S4HANA version 1909 is stable. We have not gone live with 2020 yet."
"Personally, from the functionality point, I think it is one of the best products."
"The features that I find most helpful in my day-to-day operations with SAP S/4HANA are primarily related to data management. Real-time data analytics has significantly enhanced decision-making processes by providing instant insights into business processes and trends. The user experience with the SAP S/4HANA interface has also seen notable improvements, particularly in terms of a more friendly and personalized UI."
"One of the most valuable features is the in-memory database."
"It is exclusive to have SAP in your company. It is the best system in the world."
 

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."
"The solution could be more user-friendly for regular users and developers."
"An area for improvement would be integration with different kinds of legacies."
"Maybe its user interface and reporting can be improved across the board, but it is manageable."

"The integration could be made a little simpler in terms of design and implementation."
"Every business has some unique requirements which can mean customizations are required."
"SAP is good, however, SAP users should have the knowledge to tackle SAP effectively."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the tool's pricing an eight out of ten. Customizations can cost you extra money."
"The price of the solution is fair compared to competitors."
"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 product is expensive"
"The product is expensive. On a scale of one to ten, one being the lowest price and ten being the highest, I rate the product price as seven or eight."
"This is not the cheapest solution on the market, so you need to invest seriously in it. As a solid product, it has a solid price. It's definitely one of the more expensive tools on the market, but it's also one of the best products on the market."
"As for pricing, it depends on the business size and flow. If it's a medium-sized business, it might seem affordable, but for larger businesses with complex processes, it could be considered expensive."
"The tool's licensing is very expensive. They've changed their licensing model from the old ERP system to a new model using FUEs, which is somewhat better but still expensive."
"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."
"The price of this product is an issue for some customers."
"It is on a quarterly basis. There are no additional costs. There is just the standard fee."
