SAP S/4HANA Reviews

We are using SAP S4HANA for supply chain management, production planning, and material management. We have connected systems that have intelligent optimization for production planning outside of SAP S4HANA.

I have found the most valuable features are the interface, which is very good for all users, and the database performance is good. Additionally, we have more service APIs to communicate with third-party solutions or systems, such as cloud systems or other participants, than in our last ERP system.

In an upcoming release, it would be beneficial to have more practical intelligence in the system, such as protective maintenance, or artificial intelligence. This would not be too complicated to provide nowadays. If you have a mission learning or artificial intelligence, you have to have it in the cloud and have cooperation between the ERP and the cloud. It is not as good as it could be.

I have been using this solution for approximately four years.

We have had no problems with the stability of this solution.

The scalability of this solution depends on the hardware and the platform you use. If you have fixed hardware, then you need more effort to have scalability. If it is on the cloud, such as Azure, it is a lot easier to scale. The software itself is very practical and scalable.

The technical support is very good between the service levels. 

The installation is straightforward.

We did the implementation ourselves.

The solution is expensive. There are many discussions surrounding the topic of third-party indirect usage of SAP solutions. If you have a third-party system and you have a connection to the SAP system, should this third-party usage qualify as a cost or not. It is very complicated to handle with the SAP organization.

I would recommend those wanting to implement this solution to make sure their internal IT departments are trained well to be able to educate the teams.

I rate SAP S4HANA an eight out of ten.

The solution has helped our organization with planning and consolidating our data.

SAP S4HANA has good performance and has allowed us to combine our systems.

The solution could be more user-friendly for regular users and developers.

I have been using SAP S4HANA for approximately 15 years.

The solution is stable.

The solution is scalable.

We have been happy with the technical support from SAP.

The installation and migration can take a lot of time but it is expected. 

We had assistance with the migration from SAP. They were very helpful.

The price of the solution is expensive.

I would recommend others to use the latest version of the solution to receive all the benefits.

I rate SAP S4HANA an eight out of ten.

SAP S4HANA is a robust solution.

We are always looking for a better user experience. We would like to see more consolidation in SAP S4HANA because of all the financial compliance and regulatory changes.

I have been using SAP S4HANA for approximately four years.

The technical support is good.

I would rate the technical support of SAP S4HANA an eight out of ten.

The initial setup was straightforward because we used the package solution, with no customization.

We did the implementation in-house.

I would advise others to use the latest version because the bugs are being fixed constantly.

I rate SAP S4HANA an eight out of ten.

It is an enterprise solution, which is adopted by many organizations, and it's robust.

We use the solution to comprehensively manage our business.

The solution makes its use and the management of our infrastructure easy. 

While the solution contemplates a competitively priced model, its pricing could be cheaper. 

We have been using SAP S4HANA for the last two years. 

The solution is stable.

The solution is scalable.

We rely both on our own technical team for the managing of the solution's technical infrastructure and on the subscription-based SAP support. 

When it comes to functionality, we rely on offshore support. 

From a technical management perspective, the initial set up is fine. We have been using the solution for a long time now, based on management's decision to do so. 

Though we are talking about a competitively priced model, the pricing could be more cost-effective. 

I give SAP S4HANA the best rating available, a ten out of ten. 

We are using using almost all of SAP S4HANA's modules, from production and planning to finance and controlling.

In terms of its most valuable feature, I would say the finance module. This is the base. Right now we're working towards the other modules as well, for lineup opportunity operations.

The common issues being raised right now by the end-users are mostly related to the usability. Especially on the Fiori interface. I think they're a manufacturing company and they're implementing lean manufacturing. They are actually counting the number of clicks and screens that are being used by their end-users so they can have a more efficient and intuitive approach on the Fiori apps.

In terms of what features should be included in the next release, there would be too many to mention. I would probably say right now, as part of the planning session, they're going to go through the entire gamut of features where they can improve and where we're lacking in some parts. We're planning to implement a trial for support and warehouse management. But it's a big list right now and I can't think of anything specific. 

In terms of what could be improved, I would say the usability aspect of it for the users. Additionally, from the corporate perspective, some of the more stringent integrations across modules and also allowing integrations from third-party applications.

I have been using SAP S4HANA for three years.

I would not say it is a 100% stable. There still are some large issues here and there. But I guess over the course of using it for the last three years, and with some of the changes that have been put in place by our IT team, I would say it is around 70% stable.

In terms of scalability, I wouldn't count it as easy. I would probably say it's medium complex. 

We currently have around 100, 150 people using it.

In terms of support, there still are some places here and there for them to improve. But their support is mostly stable right now.

The initial setup was very complex.

During the initial setup we made use of an SI, solution integrator vendor, for the implementation. It was a combination of the SI and some internal resources.

On a scale of one to ten, I would rate SAP S4HANA a seven.

I have found the most valuable feature to be the SAP Fiori application.

There should be a place where I can get the best available applications in one place. Currently, Fiori applications are available in different tiles on the dashboards. If anyone wants to check the financial, sales, and inventory reporting in one place, it is not possible in Fiori. We would have to develop a custom Fiori application. If that feature can be incorporated into the standard Fiori, it will be helpful for us.

I have been using SAP S4HANA for approximately six years.

SAP S4HANA is stable.

The solution is highly scalable.

SAP S4HANA is best suited for medium and large organizations. There is another solution called SAP Business One that is more suited for smaller organizations.

I have received excellent support from SAP.

The installation of SAP S4HANA is easy. The time it takes for the implementation depends on the modules you are wanting to use. It can take anywhere from a couple of months to two years.

The price of the solution is on the higher side compared to others.

I rate SAP S4HANA a nine out of ten.

SAP S/4 HANA has cloud facilities. Also, it has Fiori apps. This tool helps us to manage business in a faster and smarter way. 

The new functionality helps people. Employees have become more efficient and skilled. It manages the business in a faster way than before we had the solution installed. 

Business partner functionality helps us to manage vendors and customers from a single screen. Another one is product costing. Product CO-PA implementation is easier than before.

MRP repost area should be improved. The production information report also needs to be improved. 

Planned Order List needs a change of screen.

Yes, we encountered stability issues.

No scalability issues.

No previous solution was used.

Two years.

The cost is $5000.

No.

Most of the modules in our corporation is on the finance module. We also use it for HCM.

I can verify and provide the overall financial aid report and also the management report. It makes it better and easier to implement. Also, it provides a better view of business operations.

You will not see convenient user experiences with SAP S4HANA's website or application. It is not mobile-friendly either. 

We have been using it for about four years.

We've been happy with the technical support.

The initial setup was quite straightforward because we started with finance.

Depending on the industry and the nature of the business, I would recommend SAP S4HANA, especially if the company has a working model like ours.

On a scale from one to ten, I would rate SAP S4HANA at seven.
