Your ERP shouldn't hold your business back
Whether you are running fragmented systems, outdated software, or simply outgrowing your current ERP, SAP Cloud ERP (S/4HANA Public Edition) provides a unified platform that scales with your business. Live in weeks, not years.

Manual work and disconnected systems. Data transfers between tools are time-consuming and error-prone.

FAQ
Common questions about SAP Cloud ERP
What is SAP Cloud ERP and how does it differ from traditional SAP systems?
SAP Cloud ERP (also known as S/4HANA Public Edition) is a cloud-native ERP solution designed for mid-market companies. Unlike traditional on-premise SAP systems, it runs on SAP-managed infrastructure with frequent updates, pre-configured processes and a subscription pricing model. Benefit from a complete set of ERP capabilities without managing servers, upgrades or complex customisations.
How long does it take to implement SAP Cloud ERP?
Implementation timeline depends on scope and complexity. A baseline implementation typically takes a minimum of 12 weeks. More comprehensive implementations with multiple modules, integrations and data migration typically take 3-6 months. For international rollouts with multiple entities, expect 6-8 months. The key is balancing speed with proper business fit and change adoption.
Is SAP Cloud ERP suitable for mid-market companies?
Yes, SAP Cloud ERP is designed for mid-market companies starting from 25 users. It includes pre-configured best practices, guided implementation services, and accelerated deployment timelines. The solution is ideal for companies moving from fragmented systems or legacy ERP looking for rapid time to value.
Can we integrate SAP Cloud ERP with our existing non-SAP systems?
Yes, SAP Cloud ERP supports seamless integration with both SAP and non-SAP systems through the SAP Business Technology Platform. Common integration scenarios include CRM systems, manufacturing execution systems, e-commerce platforms, and legacy financial systems. We recommend modern integration approaches to keep connections maintainable and upgrade-safe over time.
How much customisation is possible with SAP Cloud ERP?
SAP Cloud ERP follows a standardised approach with no ABAP modifications allowed in the core system. This is by design to maintain upgradeability and access to continuous innovation. However, you can extend functionality through SAP BTP using side-by-side extensions, custom apps and workflow automation. The goal is balancing business fit with long-term maintainability.
What happens to our data if we decide to change systems later?
Your data remains yours. SAP Cloud ERP provides standard data export capabilities to extract master and transactional data if needed. That said, most companies find the continuous innovation, frequent updates and ecosystem integration make SAP Cloud ERP a long-term strategic choice rather than a short-term system.
