Scalable for our use case and offers modules lie FI, CO and more
Pros and Cons
  • "It is scalable enough. We have over a hundred end users using it."
  • "When we want to raise a ticket on the SAP portal, the process takes a longer time, and there are many selections that confuse the user."

What is our primary use case?

We use it for the FICO {Financial Accounting (FI), Management Accounting (CO)}, SD, and MM modules.

What needs improvement?

We don't face any problems with the modules, but we have a problem with the web solution. The web access sometimes has difficulties with logging in.

The support should be improved. Every time we submit tickets to SAP, the process takes a long time.

Also, improved performance, reliability, and stability would be beneficial.

For how long have I used the solution?

In my current company, we migrated to SAP S/4HANA last year in January. It means we started using it in January 2023.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It is not really stable. 

Based on the SAP support we currently use, the users access SAP through the web. In the web interface, we have a lot of connection issues. 

Although SAP claims they are addressing these problems, they have not taken any concrete action. Instead, they try to shift the responsibility back to the customer.

According to our agreement, these tasks should be handled by SAP. However, the support team consistently insists that these issues fall under their scope. This is the challenge we are currently facing.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

It is scalable enough. We have over a hundred end users using it. There are around five administrators for this product.

How are customer service and support?

When we want to raise a ticket on the SAP portal, the process takes a longer time, and there are many selections that confuse the user. SAP should simplify the way tickets are submitted. This is what we hope they will improve.

They need to improve the solution and streamline the process. We want to bring the issue in more clearly so we can know which option to select.  

How would you rate customer service and support?

Neutral

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The pricing is okay. It is higher. It is expensive. 

We encountered an issue when we implemented SAP S/4HANA. It wasn't properly implemented with disaster recovery. The disaster recovery was an additional feature that required a separate payment to implement a disaster recovery plan.

What other advice do I have?

Overall, I would rate the product an eight out of ten because the support is very bad.
