Customers need to be better educated about using the solution's cloud for digital transformation. SAP as a legacy system is missing that flavor. The solution is not a traditional ERP software so should be used as a digital transformation tool. That is the story to project to customers, partners, and sales teams. This will help the solution grow faster than GCP, AWS, or Azure. In fact, Google Cloud Platform is now collaborating with SAP for digital transformation. The solution should offer affordable modules that are customized to startups with 50 to 500 employees. Most people think of SAP as being only for big enterprises but it could be very useful for smaller companies. There are 40,000 to 50,000 startups in APAC each year and that is a large volume. Many of the solution's modules could be used by those startups. Google is targeting this market with chat boards and automation tools at a reasonable price or with six months of free usage. SAP should come up with this kind of module and include sandbox so providers can play with a few of the POCs.

There are areas of improvement because managing the environment is quite complex. There have been issues with operational monitoring, infrastructure management, and overall holistic control of operations. Additionally, the change request process is time-consuming, which is a significant disadvantage in an environment with numerous business processes, extensive landscape projects, and multiple enterprise operations. Lengthy change requests hinder business agility. Furthermore, scalability is a concern since it operates on Amodo, which is not designed for micro-scale operations. This makes scaling the environment challenging and sometimes leads to difficulties in managing rollouts and system server resource usage. Another drawback is the availability of the right resources for the job. Sometimes, when an issue arises, the necessary expertise and resources are not immediately accessible, resulting in prolonged resolution times. In some instances, inexperienced individuals are assigned tasks, which can be problematic as they may not fully comprehend the requirements. It is crucial to have experienced professionals who understand the intricacies and complexities of the system. They need to align themselves with the business goals because downtime can be categorized into technical downtime and system functionality downtime. Functionality downtime refers to instances where the system's performance is insufficient to meet the business's expectations, resulting in reduced efficiency in business transactions.

Traditionally, SAP worked with Oracle databases, but SAP is getting rid of the other databases and promoting its own. SAP will stop support for other databases around 2026, so everyone is moving to SAP S/4HANA for the performance and because it's the preferred database for SAP. S/4HANA has new features from the front-end or application feature perspective. The idea is to move toward future-ready technology.

Pricing

SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud pricing is relatively high compared to competitors, with annual contracts and licensing fees influenced by chosen features. Discounts may be available for bulk purchases or extended contracts. While technical support is included, integrations and specific skill set projects incur additional costs. It is suited for large enterprises, though smaller firms might find the costs prohibitive. SAP offers subscription models and initial negotiation options to manage pricing effectively.

"The price is on little bit higher. For SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud, we see roughly five crores per annum."
"I rate the product's price a five out of ten."
"SAP may not be the most cost-effective option, but it does offer a comprehensive set of tools and features. When you have the right information, structure, and dashboard in place, it can provide excellent value. Additionally, competition with Oracle might be a factor to consider."
