Pros
"The product provides consistent updates and upgrades.""The technical support is very good."

More Sage MAS Pros →

"Both standard and customized integrations work well with no issues.""SAP is an extremely powerful ERP. In my past company, we used it on a massive large scale, and it was amazing.""Since SAP S/4HANA Cloud is a SaaS application, it is already providing a lot of standard out-of-the-box features.""It is good in data analytics and helps in data analytics.""Finance aspects of it and transportation management, asset management, and inventory management are valuable.""SAP S4HANA Cloud is stable, and its computational power and speed have improved in later versions.""Makes it easier to reach and read data.""The ability to access and analyze data in real-time has significantly improved our reporting efficiency."

Cons
"We're definitely looking at a new system because everything in this product needs improving.""The vendor stopped supporting the solution on the Linux platform."

More Sage MAS Cons →

"The implementation time for S/4HANA Cloud could be reduced.""The only thing I would improve is the overall user experience, particularly the mobile app. S/4HANA is a powerful, scalable platform, but the user experience isn't positive. It's a bit complex. The look and feel aren't attractive, and the mobile experience isn't great.""The solution’s reporting could be improved.""The user interface of SAP S/4HANA Cloud needs to be improved because it is not as good as other applications.""I would like to see a feature where it allows integration with more platforms.""The proposition by SAP does not match the value realization.""Integrating SAP with other products like payroll solutions should be smoother. I wish there were some tools a consultant could build according to the client's requirements. For example, say I want to process debit and credits. In SAP, we have to follow SAP terminologies and patterns. I need a template to deploy my structure according to the client's requirements. There is no structure available in SAP that a consultant can mold.""One thing that could be better in SAP S/4HANA Cloud, especially in the public cloud, is how easily you can make changes."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The pricing is reasonable."
  • More Sage MAS Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The pricing is competitive with other products at that level in that category."
  • "I feel the solution is expensive when it comes to what can be obtained with open source software."
  • "This is a pricey solution that best serves large enterprises. Be sure to ensure that your company's requirements need to be fulfilled by SAP. There are many other ERP's that are cheaper yet highly functional. However, it is still cheaper than some of the competition (i.e. Oracle, ESD, etc.)"
  • "I don't remember the specifics about the licensing, but it's scaled and modular. You pay for what you use. It's not a one-size-fits-all license. You have a license for every single module. It's similar to Oracle."
  • "The licensing process for SAP S/4HANA Cloud has worked well."
  • "It's very expensive."
  • "Pricing wise, SAP S4HANA Cloud is very expensive. The licensing cost can be 100,000 euros per year, depending on the number of users in your company."
  • "S/4HANA is an enterprise solution that many can't afford. You must invest a lot to get the most out of it. It isn't cheap. I rate the price seven out of 10."
