SAP Roadmaps
Almost a fifth of them were positive or neutral about the more "expensive" support model Enterprise Support. A total of 42% of those surveyed see this as a low or no added value. Interestingly, almost 40 percent did not say anything about this topic. Nevertheless, a positive trend is emerging. In a similar survey last year, nearly three-quarters of the participants said they had little or no added value to Enterprise Support. "The benefits of Enterprise Support, such as free services, have not yet been widely publicised by customers. The Enterprise Support Academy launched by SAP, which is an educational institution, is promising, but should receive even more attention," concludes Andreas Oczko. Nevertheless, SAP is still calling for standard support to remain in focus. The performance of this support model, which is also paid a significant maintenance rate, should not only include a minimum of service levels. We need to create more transparency about what service is included in which support contract. The information day is free of charge for SAP customers, it presents topics around enterprise support. The target group is customers who have an Enterprise Support Maintenance Agreement or are interested in it.
"As more companies combine on-premise systems and cloud programmes in hybrid IT environments, controlling and coordinating support for different solutions can significantly increase the complexity of IT operations," said Elaina Stergiades of IDC. "IT organisations are therefore looking for support providers that are able to simplify and unify access to support services." With the SAP ONE Support programme focusing on comprehensive support, SAP users can integrate cloud technologies and reduce the complexity of day-to-day operations.
