How to switch to the cloud as an SAP customer

RISE with SAP: From outdated IT to the intelligent cloud

From on-premise system to cloud ERP

Old ERP systems such as SAP ECC, fragmented data sources and isolated processes slow down innovation and limit adaptability.

RISE with SAP offers you the holistic way to overcome these obstacles, with:

  • Intelligent agents for automation & real-time response
  • Integrated applications for end-to-end processes
  • Trustworthy data as the basis for real AI value creation

RISE with SAP – The holistic path to the cloud for existing SAP customers

For existing SAP customers.
RISE with SAP is aimed at companies that already use SAP and are facing the challenge of transforming outdated system landscapes, high complexity and fragmented processes into a modern, integrated cloud architecture. The solution offers a clearly structured transformation path – technically, procedurally and organizationally – towards an intelligent, scalable ERP in the cloud.

Whether large corporations, medium-sized market leaders or global players – RISE with SAP is the ideal introduction to cloud transformation.

Not every company starts at the same point, which is why RISE with SAP is deliberately designed with flexibility in mind. The status quo of your system landscape determines the appropriate transformation path:

  • Greenfield: You are building on a greenfield site – ideal for companies that want to replace legacy systems and adopt best practices.
  • Brownfield: You migrate your existing SAP landscape – with system conversion and preservation of historical data.
  • Selective transformation: You modernize individual parts of your system in a targeted manner.
  • On-premise as a starting point: Your RISE journey can also start from here – with clear milestones towards the cloud.

Our experts will help you choose the best path for you – technically, organizationally and strategically.
