"The solution is easy to scale."
"It is very stable and very innovative. You can integrate many applications with it."

"Advanced security would be a good additional feature."
"I would like more technical documentation. I would like it to be easier to find online help or have a better launch-based service. SAP has a lot of functions, so we need more best practices and more detailed documentation on industry solutions. For example, it would be good to have documentation on why a certain process needs to be set up and which kinds of configurations need to be set up."
"The surface side or Attack dashboard needs improvement because there are some gaps after sales services."
"There are a few areas wherein there could be a patch upgrade, and that can cover up the country-specific payroll areas."

"I'd just like to see some more improvements done on the training, both on the functional training and technical training sides as a part of the complete solution."
"The challenge right now is all databases are on S4 HANA architecture. You're running it for HANA, but not all the functionalities are available. If they can speed up getting all the databases on S4 HANA that would help."
"They can improve their technology for the CRM subsystem. There are other products that are better and more effective for the CRM subsystem. Its price could be better. It is expensive."
