IT Service Management Team Lead at a financial services firm with 1,001-5,000 employees
Long-term adaptation and evolution meets changing technology trends
SAP ERP is not really real-time. We use the HANA database which is supposed to be memory data in memory, but we are still not very happy. It is supposed to be real-time and come very quickly, but in reality, it still takes time to run. That is why we use BW of SAP, Business Objects, and now we have moved to the Analytic Cloud where we start using predictive AI. SAP recently implemented Databricks, and they started investing significantly in the analytic environment. SAP ERP has been left behind as they moved to S/4HANA with the HANA database. They restructured the whole table structure of SAP ERP, introduced simple finance, simple logistics, and moved HR to SuccessFactors. They have the BTP layer where they manage everything from integration to master data management. The challenge with SAP is that they move very fast to different products and buy different products. It requires significant investment and many skills to catch up because all of these have different sets of technology. The fundamental has changed differently. It is not monolithic anymore but different products under one name, SAP. You have to buy it model by model for additional models. Products such as SuccessFactors, Ariba for procure to pay, Concur for travel, and Facility Management use totally different technology. They try to integrate with each other, but it remains a challenge for SAP to make them have the same management, technology, and operational approach.

Outages can be managed and performed in a shorter period of time. It is compliant with best practice guidelines.
An improvement for this product would be to have more pre-defined key performance indicators for the plant managers. The product provides several baseline reports, dashboards and KPIs that provide insight into specific business operations, displayed in graphical terms or as detailed reports. The presented information can be used to influence business decisions by presenting a clear picture of the selected indicators that show how a business functions. If the product has from the beginning more pre-defined indicators, the plant managers can benefit more from the beginning from the product implementation. Of course any time a new indicator can be developed according to the specific requests, but this will take time.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Stability-wise, SAP ERP is the best product among others."
"It meets our requirements for what we need it to do in the manufacturing industry."
"The solution is very mature."
"Finance view across functions has been valuable."
"The solution is very stable."
"The new Visual Enterprise functionalities give an intuitive approach to data and make communication between engineering and production easy."
"ERP is stable. The outcome is clear to us as far as the design goes."
"We can go 100 times our volume of transactions and we won't have any problems with it."
"The outages can be easily managed and performed in a shorter period of time, and the preventive and corrective maintenance activities can be easily planned and managed."
 

Cons

"User experience."
"When evaluating the current version I am using now, the SAP GUI is old-style and needs to be replaced with something more modern and easy to use. However, the SAP GUI is very optimized for connection networks and is extremely good. Many people would like to have a WebGUI or something else to have access in a different way. Additionally, there could be some drag and drop functionality added because these features are normally in any website that this solution does not have."
"I think we have not seen any tangible benefits from SAP ERP."
"Our customers initially find the solution quite complex and not very user-friendly so that is something that could be improved."
"There should be better support provided to be able to migrate to S/4HANA easier."
"SAP is not making a big effort to make it easy to integrate solutions from other vendors. It's not easy at all... Integration is what they can do better."
"When there is a system error it provides an error code and a lot of times these can be complicated. The support team could have more knowledge to be able to assist with these situations more promptly."
"This solution could be made more user-friendly for development teams."
"An improvement for this product would be to have more pre-defined key performance indicators for the plant managers."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Some components are available at an additional cost, depending on the type of contract that you have."
"The on-premises licensing model comes with annual maintenance whereas the cloud-based licensing model is a yearly subscription. The tool’s pricing is normal and not expensive."
"The solution has moved from a licensing model to a rights-based, subscription model in the cloud."
"There are licensing costs."
"SAP ECC is not cheap but I consider it the best system for managing an organization's data and processes."
"There is a one-time license that is needed to use the solution. The support is what is needed to be renewed annually."
"When you have a solution that is stable, reliable, and has a high performance as this solution, the price is going to be expensive. However, when you evaluate the service you are paying for the cost is quite reasonable for this solution."
"It is less expensive than its competitors."
