SAP S/4HANA Reviews

I work for a consulting company. Globally, we have clients in oil and gas, construction, and other industries.

We have about 26 people using this solution.

S/4HANA falls under a single terminal. We can easily access the data, and the performance is good.

The scalability could be better.

I have used SAP S/4HANA for five years.

It's stable.

I would rate the scalability as six out of ten.

Setup is easy. It takes at least six months to deploy.

We pay for an annual license. The pricing will depend on the client's needs.

I would rate this solution as seven out of ten.

I do pre-sales, or sell the SAP solutions to the customer. I need to know the requirements and match the SAP solution. I am not an expert on SAP HANA or SAP S/4HANA

The most valuable feature of SAP S/4HANA is the innovational process. We are able to receive more efficiency or accuracy than previous versions.

SAP S/4HANA could improve by making the interface easier to use.

I have been using SAP S/4HANA for approximately eight years.

SAP S/4HANA is a stable solution.

The scalability of SAP S/4HANA is good. Thousands of people can use this solution at one time.

We have many clients that use or plan to use this solution. We have global clients across the world in multiple countries. They need to focus on their central finance, reporting, and rules of governance.

I rate SAP S/4HANA a nine out of ten.

This product is the ERP. I'm on the procurement side. Therefore, I leverage it for purchase orders and finance and have all the processes together.

It is better than the previous SAP solution.

It's stable. 

You can integrate it with other tools. 

I cannot recall coming across any areas that were lacking. 

Starting out on the solution can be a bit complex and difficult. I'd like to see them simplify the process of integration. It's very complex, even with the new solutions within SAP.

I started using the product two years ago.

It's a stable product. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable and the performance is good. 

We have 23,000 people using the solution. 

I'm on the user side. I'm not on the IT side. I don't have insights on scalability.

I've never contacted technical support. I can't speak to how helpful or responsive they are. 

I can't speak to the initial setup process as I was not a part of the team that handled that.

I wasn't a part of the implementation and am unsure if any outside parties were used or if everything was handled in-house. 

I'm not responsible for the licensing arrangements. I can't speak to the exact cost. 

We're an SAP partner.

I'm not sure which version of the product we are on at this time. I'm not IT. I'm on the procurement side.

I'd advise new users to try to set up everything that is related to your processes and set up integration with SAP assistance tools, such as Ariba. Otherwise, in the beginning, it's very complex.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

It is used for financial accounting. We are a system integrator, and we have some customers using it. Some customers are on-prem, and we also have some customers on Azure.

From a technological point of view, the in-memory database is one of the key highlights.

If S4HANA has more AI and machine learning, it will be better and easier for reporting and dashboarding.

Its pricing could be better.

I have been using this solution for about three years.

It is quite stable as long as you have the right infrastructure environment.

S4HANA has scalability features, but it depends on the infrastructure. If it is on-prem, you also need scalable hardware.

We have less technical support because of the fewer resources in the region, but we don't have any issues at the moment with that. We are also working with some partners.

Its initial setup is straightforward, but the rollout is quite challenging when the customization starts.

Its pricing could be better.

Normally, we engage with SAP sales to do the assessment. For a successful implementation, before implementing it, I would advise consulting SAP professional services, not just a partner of SAP. If SAP can provide a consulting service initially, it'll be beneficial.

I would rate it an eight out of ten.

We are using SAP S4HANA for the OIL and GAS industry.

I have used SAP S4HANA within the past 10 Years

SAP S4HANA is highly stable.

I have found SAP S4HANA to be scalable.

The support quality depends upon the solution and the nature of the problem. It depends on which platform you working on it.

The difficulty level of the initial setup depends on the person's skills. If you know the basic knowledge of the database, then it will be easy, otherwise, it will be very difficult.

I would rate the price of SAP S4HANA a four out of five.

The price of SAP S4HANA could be cheaper.

My advice to others is for them to do their homework very well because if you move into production, you don't have any chances. Make sure your timelines are correct and select your consultant wisely.

I rate SAP S4HANA an eight out of ten.

My main use of this product is for finance and controlling.

This product would be improved by adding more reports. In the next release, I would like UDF or UDO to be added.

I've been using this solution for about two-and-a-half years.

This is a scalable solution.

This product is straightforward to set up.

I also work with Business One, and I find I need a lot of workarounds for it. But I find everything I need in S4/HANA. I recommend this solution for everyone, I think it's the best solution available. I would rate S4/HANA eight out of ten.

We use SAP S4HANA for manufacturing and financials because we are a manufacturing firm.

In an upcoming release of SAP S4HANA, chain management should be easier.

I have been using SAP S4HANA for approximately four years.

SAP S4HANA is a stable solution.

I have found scalability difficult to achieve in SAP S4HANA because the license is quite expensive. The hardware requirement is quite high and can require a large investment for scalability.

We have approximately 200 users using the solution in my organization. We do not plan to increase the usage.

We have internal support for SAP S4HANA but for the external technical support, we rarely use it. The system is quite stable and if we do follow the process, it should have no problems. 

The initial configuration of SAP S4HANA is quite difficult. The time it took for the implementation took seven months.

The implementation was done by a partner.

There is an annual license for SAP S4HANA.

I recommend this solution to others.

I rate SAP S4HANA a seven out of ten.

the primary use case is to support business processes, ensure the operation of the company and compliance with regulatory and tax requirements. Provide management information in real time to improve decision making

we have improved the visibility of the information between the different areas, implemented tools that allow us to improve logistics processes and even reduce the immobilized stock, speed up the closing of accounting processes

The in-memory processing capability and real time information is most valuable. 

The migration form previous versions to SAP S/4HANA is a challenge both for customers and clients. 

there should be simpler ways to incorporate the new tools into a process framework. Many customers are still using the same tools but running in SAP S/4HANA

for more than 18 years.

It is very stable.

It is scalable. We have more than 1,000 users. 

Their support is very good. 

Positive

We were using SAP Business Suite 6.0 

we wanted to incorporate improvements of the new functionalities, keep ourselves updated in the latest version

For a customer, the complexity, in general, is related to representing their business processes with this solution. It isn't related to S/4HANA.

We implement through our partner Softtek. 

It is important to understand the licensing model and ensure that the sizing of the platform is correct for the number of users and the volume of information to be processed.

Some components may require additional licensing.

The concept of digital or indirect access should be eliminated

No

We have more than 25 S/4HANA implementations on Azure. We have at least three SAP S/4HANA implementations on AWS, and we have one S/4HANA on GCP.

Its implementation challenges are related to finding the best way to adapt the business processes as per the standard or best practices of SAP. The key is to adapt the best practices as much as you can so that in the future, it's easier for you to update to newer versions.

I would rate it an eight out of 10.
