Gartner® estimates that 23,000 ECC customers have not licensed SAP S/4HANA.
With the end of mainstream maintenance approaching for ECC in 2027 (extended to 2030 for an additional fee), ERP sourcing, procurement, and application leaders have an important decision to make:
- Strategically migrate to SAP S/4HANA On-Premise or RISE with SAP S/4HANA Cloud
- Tactically convert to SAP S/4HANA staying on-premises without RISE with SAP
- Change ERP vendors
- Switch to a third-party software maintenance provider
- Continue to wait for more suitable options from SAP or SAP partners
This report from Gartner analyzes each of these options to estimate how long each pathway will take to complete the transformation, as well as the risk level and considerations associated with this critical business decision.
