Cloud

SAP's move towards becoming a cloud provider has changed its portfolio considerably. As an SAP service provider, abat is following this path and therefore also offers its customers optimal consulting for all questions regarding the topic of cloud. We know exactly that your system landscape is unique and that cloud solutions from a wide range of providers must be connected to your ERP system - because this is the only way to map processes holistically across system boundaries.  

Initially, we start with an analysis of your existing system landscape and determine where optimization is possible and where it makes sense.

Often, the question then arises as to whether a future system landscape will reside in the cloud or in your own data center. Experience shows that the answer to this is a "both/and", especially since some of your data should not be stored in outsourced data centers. We also support you with our expertise in these decision-making processes.  

Incidentally, a changeover to SAP S/4HANA in particular offers the ideal opportunity to future-proof existing system landscapes.

 

Our cloud services for you at a glance:

  • Analysis of your system landscape as well as concept creation for optimization
  • Support in the selection of a suitable cloud solution
  • Provision of required SAP licenses
  • Planning the introduction of new solutions
  • Execution of the implementation 
  • Round-the-clock support, even after the implementation has been completed

I like working at abat because there is a very pleasant, appreciative working atmosphere here with a lot of freedom. There is a lot of trust, so you also have the freedom to try out something new - but if it doesn't work out, there is also the necessary support. That's how I've learned so much! In addition, if you have problems while working in the home office, you can often quickly find colleagues who are happy to help you out via teams.
