SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud Reviews

Our company is a service, build, and innovation partner for SAP in India. We built one of the SAP modules in India. We have a big presence in Singapore and are looking toward clients in North America, Europe, and the Middle East. 

We use the solution for business verticals like dairy where we focus on logistics, arrays, and modules for manufacturing. We do a lot of automations so we focus on the IT infrastructure itself. 

We have moved our focus from the traditional SAP modules to SAP BTP because we are helping customers to do digital transformations. It is the happening module at this point in time. 

A majority of our use cases are enterprise customers. Mid-sized businesses are about 20% to 30% of our customer base. We have started working with small or regional companies in India, Singapore, and Malaysia that are specifically in the dairy sector. 

Internally, we use the solution's sandbox to build POCs. Junior developers can play around with the solution's tools in our in-house creator. 

We have a hybrid environment where the training module and POCs are on a physical infrastructure within our office and a few modules like MMSD are on the cloud. 

The BTP module is important for digital transformations. 

We use it primarily in the coal industry for tournament auctions, implementing six modules. Previously, we were on Oracle DB, and five years ago, we migrated to SAP HANA DB through the cloud. We are now planning to migrate to SAP S/4HANA.

It has significantly streamlined our operations. 

Previously, our PDC (Primary Data Center) was on-premise. After migrating to HANA Enterprise Cloud, we were able to maintain higher performance with just 50% of the resources we used to have with the controller.

Nowadays, we're making proper decisions in time only by management. Because earlier, we were on Oracle DB. Now, with HANA, the process speed has also increased, and the management is getting the details within a short time.

We also use SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud for real-time analytics in your organization.

We have a wide range of use cases for SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud. These include production planning, materials management, sales management, treasury, finance, appliance maintenance, real estate, and warehouse management. Additionally, we also implement safety management.

The most valuable features depend on the nature of the business and its management requirements. 60% of our transactions involve materials monitoring, sales, and distribution. These functionalities are supported by SIP (Service Integration Platform), which plays a key role in our operations.

My clients are using SAP S/4HANA on the backend of their VRP solution from SAP.

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.

Our company uses the solution's PDPO manufacturing function for controlling and monitoring the ECMs master material data for MRT planning and exclusions. 

We currently have more than 300 users across IT, development, software purchasing, research and development, the warehouse, and sales. 

I am impressed with how the solution integrates with the ME system and ALE IDocs to combine several good features for any situation. 

I have worked with SAP HANA. Within that, REFSET is one of the modules I am reading. Additionally, I work overall with SAP from Circulator.

SAP HANA improves real-time data processing and integration of various systems, enhancing our customer's decision-making processes by ensuring immediate data updates in the database, offering real-time analytics, and allowing seamless integration with both SAP and non-SAP systems.

Enterprise Cloud is the center of our ERP ecosystem.

Enterprise Cloud's reporting could be more automated to improve content accountability, especially regarding BI reports. 

SAP's Enterprise Cloud platform is basically used for deploying the SAP ERP systems on top of the cloud. Most of the customers we have want to move onto a cloud with pre-configured setups. Our specialization is the migration of entire SAP ERP on-premise solutions to the cloud. 

The solution does provide quite a lot of support, upgrades, automated batch updates, etc. 

It's a flexible platform for customers who are looking for ready-made solutions and support.

The solution is managed and supported by SAP. 

The most important aspect of the solution for our client is the feed. If you manage the heavy enterprise applications and need to generate a report, a C level report, for CEO or CFO level members of the organization, it's ten times faster than the on-premises option.

There's minimum downtime during migrations. This platform is very effective.

Only every quarter will customers need to get system upgrades or patches. This happens mostly at night or on weekends, lessening downtime even further. The updates of the system will happen through the cloud. It is a very good feature for the customer.
