Versatile integrations and reliable customer satisfaction elevate cloud service experience
For Microsoft Azure improvement, they need to enhance their support system. The first level of support should be improved in terms of quality and response time. They need more technical support at the first level, as there are currently only one or two technical people among five to ten staff members at this level. They should ensure that the first level support is more technical because we normally provide services to technical users ourselves. When an issue arises, it usually escalates to the second or third level. When facing first level support, they may have limited knowledge and only collect screenshots to forward to their seniors. They should ensure that the first level support is aligned with L2 and L3 to better assist us, especially since we mention in the ticket that our issues are related to specific problems and require that sort of support.

End-to-end accounting has been streamlined and secures data with automated controls
SAP S4HANA on AWS is mostly well secured because you need a VPN of the company you are working in to log in and view only with the VPN. It is not possible to connect to a random network, and it is very safe. In terms of usage and automation, SAP S4HANA on AWS is very good at automation, where instead of manually punching entry by entry as with Tally, Zoho, or NetSuite, you can do a bulk upload and close it from one GL to another GL entry from one T-code to another T-code. These are all the options and features, and it is user-friendly. Once you learn SAP S4HANA on AWS, you tend to know how to customize things and what features you want. You can add in features by working closely with the SAP team, whether it is a direct SAP team or through a contract with some agent. There are numerous things you can do; it is not limited to only one function. You can have end-to-end control, and back-dated entries are not possible as in Tally or Zoho, which is very good in terms of security and safety. There are no accounting frauds; we can even identify who has done an entry by name. It is very secure; a password gets locked automatically after two incorrect attempts, and you have to contact the SAP team for that. Data privacy is very good, and overall, it is a better option. Regarding real-time analytics features in SAP S4HANA on AWS, you can integrate with Qlik or Power BI, and I believe there is also an analytics component within SAP itself. SAP S4HANA on AWS provides one analytics tool, and these tools can be integrated and customized however you want. It is very easy to do analytics; you can download reports or integrate those reports with Power BI. It is very convenient that way. When it comes to AI capabilities integrated with SAP S4HANA on AWS, I am not certain because most of it comes via tools such as Qlik and Power BI. There are multiple other things that can help you integrate and work on it. For example, integrating Power BI with N28 or Cloud is convenient with tools such as Copilot. However, I am unsure how it works in SAP S4HANA on AWS because most organizations do not allow integrating AI with SAP S4HANA on AWS.
