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.

The fact that SAP manages everything for us - the infrastructure, everything. We don't need a lot of manpower to maintain it ourselves. This has reduced our service costs and everything is handled by the cloud for procurement processes.

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.

While working with HANA and other applications, the key focus lies in robust processing and seamless integration between phases. This is crucial for generating comprehensive models, especially when dealing with various data sources and needing data updates. Ensuring data integrity across finance, supply chain, and other critical areas is paramount for real-time decision-making. Access to accurate and up-to-date information is essential for data protection. While the digital solution primarily serves basic maintenance, the ability to handle these core aspects efficiently is invaluable for your needs.

Senior Practice Manager - Head of SAP at a tech consulting company with 201-500 employees

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.

To be honest, I prefer working with the cloud. I hardly find anything wrong with the tools deployed on the cloud. Maybe SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud is faster, but I find normal cloud services easier to work with as it is much clearer. I prefer to use normal cloud services.

Fiori is the most valuable feature, as well as the integration between S/4 and another solution as an extension. It's useful to have our business suite integrated all in one entity.

Head of IT & Business Applications, Dangote Refinery at Dangote Industries Limited

One of the features that I've found most useful is that it's very simple. They take care of the technical aspects of the data, installations, patches and all those things, and I don't need to set up my data center. Once my business grows sufficiently when I need I can move to my data center and I can keep it there and I don't need to have a very serious or very senior SAP administrator.

The most valuable feature is virtual modeling, which is beneficial because you don't really save the data multiple times the way we did in the past. If you want to make changes to the logic, you can change it virtually and it does not affect the data that has been stored. It's on the fly, so if you want to change something then it does not much affect the existing object.

There is functionality included for predictive analytics.

For merging and massaging data, this can be an option.

The solution is online and provides a real-time information feature, which makes a huge difference to the business, especially in reviews and meetings.

Additionally, the software helps with credit approvals and plant maintenance where a mobile application is used to obtain information quickly.

What I like the most is that we can convert databases into a proper multi-dimensional model, then we can project with the integration with Power BI.
