However, there are worries about how fast this transition is happening and the pressure companies feel.<\/p>\n<p>A survey by DSAG, which is a group for SAP users in this region, shows that 48% of businesses have joined or are planning to join RISE with SAP. This program helps companies move and update their systems to the cloud. Just a couple of years ago, in 2024, only 16% of companies were considering this. This big increase shows that many want to stop using their old SAP ECC systems before the main support ends in 2027.<\/p>\n<p>SAP wants its customers to switch to SAP S\/4HANA. But according to Gartner, a research company, many businesses are still unsure about making this change. There are 35,000 companies worldwide still using ECC, and only 39% have started to move to the new system. Experts believe that many businesses might still use old systems even after extra support stops in 2030.<\/p>\n<p>Jens Hungershausen, who leads DSAG, says more people are starting to accept cloud solutions. Yet, he warns that SAP&#8217;s plan might not suit everyone. Some companies feel they are being forced to accept cloud services in a way that suits SAP rather than following their own plans. Jens stresses that businesses need to have options, should be able to plan long-term, and deserve good conditions, especially if they want to keep some systems on-site.<\/p>\n<p>Christian Hestermann, an analyst from Gartner, agrees. He says some companies find it hard to discover other ways to move to the cloud if they don&#8217;t want to use RISE with SAP. Several users say SAP tells them there are no other pathways, adding more pressure to go along with SAP\u2019s preferred plan.<\/p>\n<p>Despite these concerns, more companies are moving to cloud services. This is due to the need for new technology and because of SAP&#8217;s strategic plan. Whether companies see RISE with SAP as a good opportunity or feel it is something they must do, many realize that moving to the cloud is an essential step for the future of their business software.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many companies in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland are beginning to adopt SAP&#8217;s plan for moving to cloud services.
