SAP S/4HANA Cloud eBook: the future-proof solution for mid-size businesses
SAP S/4HANA has become an indispensable system for digital transformation among today's companies. Our eBook uses the latest studies and a customer story to show how the SAP S/4HANA Cloud solution is currently being incorporated, why it could prove to be more promising than the on-premise model, and the advantages it offers – including for the manufacturing industry.
Your transformation options: S/4HANA Cloud vs. On-Premise
There are two options to choose from when switching to S/4HANA. Which one you opt for depends on your specific needs.
Cloud ERP: scalable and fast
Then switch to SAP S/4HANA Cloud with ORBIS! SAP S/4HANA Cloud offers our customers a scalable ERP solution that makes it quick and easy to grow and adapt processes to new digitalization requirements. The cloud solution doesn't require a lot of resources (SAP takes care of deployment and maintenance) and can be easily expanded or scaled down as required.
S/4HANA On Premise: controlled and autonomous
Then switch to S/4HANA On-Premise with ORBIS! S/4HANA On-Premise allows you to benefit from the full range of functions and retain control over your data, as this is stored on your own servers and infrastructure. This option is particularly beneficial for companies with special compliance or data protection requirements.
The advantages of S/4HANA Cloud at a glance
Do you want your company to remain competitive in the long term? Then you need ERP software that is flexible, scalable, always up to date, and usable worldwide. In short, you need S/4HANA Cloud, the future-focused software that drives innovation and offers a host of new functions!
Efficient business processes
Process integration and the availability of real-time data mean that decisions can be made faster, with better understanding, and with more foresight. To this end, the cloud-based S/4HANA software uses the latest technology based on artificial intelligence, including in-memory databases and machine learning algorithms. You also benefit from a high level of standardization based on integrated, industry-specific best practices. Plus, the cloud ERP system also offers maximum security thanks to encrypted data transfer as well as regular backups, updates, and security audits. As such, it's perfect for businesses with smaller IT departments.
Lower total cost of ownership (TCO)
In contrast to the on-premise version, the S/4HANA Cloud real-time ERP suite doesn't require a local infrastructure, which reduces the costs for hardware, maintenance, and support. And, based on the “pay per use” model, companies only pay for what they really need.
Better usability
Thanks to SAP Fiori, the SAP S/4HANA Cloud user interface is intuitive and easy to use, which reduces training and familiarization time. Quicker and future-oriented usage options increase productivity while improving the customer experience with even better services. What's more, you can access the ERP solution from anywhere and at any time, whether you're using a stationary or mobile device.
Do you have particular requirements for cloud ERP software specific to your industry or business?
Thanks to our more than 35 years of experience and expertise in a number of industries, including machine construction, we are familiar with specific processes and their challenges. This enables us to make your switch to S/4HANA Cloud simple and manageable.
Your implementation scenarios: GROW with SAP, RISE with SAP, and two-tier ERP
There are three possible scenarios for S/4HANA Cloud: GROW with SAP (Public Cloud), RISE with SAP (Private Cloud) and two-tier-ERP. Which one you opt for will depend on your company's specific requirements, including size, complexity, and IT infrastructure.
RISE with SAP and two-tier ERP both have their own advantages as alternative options to the public cloud – we’re here to help you decide which implementation method is the right fit for your business!
RISE with SAP with the Private Cloud
Do you want to migrate existing processes to the cloud, have complex business processes and are looking for a scalable solution? The RISE with SAP offering with the S/4HANA Private Cloud at its core follows the tailored-to-fit approach and adapts to the individual transformation of your company.
Grow with SAP with the Public Cloud
Do you have less complex processes and are looking for a standardized, preconfigured solution? The GROW with SAP offering with the S/4HANA Public Cloud at its core follows the fit-to-standard approach and supports your company's growth - with high speed, high flexibility and predictable costs.
Hybrid: Two-tier Erp Strategy
Would you like to keep your existing ERP software and also use a cloud-based application such as S/4HANA Cloud, e.g. in a subsidiary? With this hybrid implementation approach, S/4HANA Cloud is used as a secondary system alongside the existing ERP. This allows you to benefit from efficiency and flexibility at the same time.
