Key Takeaways

⇨ ERP solutions offer centralized platforms to optimize and automate business operations, but their implementation requires significant time and financial investment, often leading to high failure rates in digital transformations.

⇨ GROW with SAP on AWS simplifies the deployment of cloud ERP systems, reducing implementation times from years to months and minimizing upfront costs through a unified billing system, enhancing business agility and scalability.

⇨ Integration of generative AI capabilities with GROW with SAP allows businesses to streamline operations and improve user experiences, while leveraging AWS's Nitro System ensures improved performance, reliability, and security for cloud-based ERP applications.

ERP solutions can be powerful, centralized platforms that help optimize and automate business operations like finance, HR, supply chain and customer service – even providing end-to-end visibility into all aspects of a business. Such a versatile collection of software typically requires an excess of two things: time and money.

Integrating a new ERP platform with legacy systems typically requires large upfront costs for hardware and software licenses – and the time needed to adapt new technology to the way each business uniquely operates shouldn’t be underestimated. The transformation process is so intensive, up to 70 percent of digital transformations fail to meet their intended objectives. Thankfully, a solution exists that was specifically designed as a software-as-a-service solution that can help businesses adopt cloud ERP quickly: GROW with SAP.

GROW with SAP on Amazon Web Services is an initiative that customers can gain benefits from simplified and reduced deployments times (years down to months) while also saving money from a lack of upfront provisioning or licensing costs. By leveraging GROW with SAP on AWS, service payment is simplified in the form of a single unified bill, rather than a collection of different maintenance costs for the plethora of different tools at work. AWS being cloud-based also means firms have the opportunity to fully utilize cloud capabilities, like improved business agility and scalability.

GROW with SAP on AWS is particularly effective for speeding up the migration process thanks to the AWS Nitro System – a mix of hardware and software designed specifically to create high performance, availability, privacy and security for cloud-based workloads. By relegating critical SAP ERP apps to the cloud, they’ll benefit from boosted performance, reinforced reliability and robust data protection – without need of a traditional hardware configuration.

Ultimately, a digital transformation should never be considered on a whim – it needs to be discussed exactly how much of an impact it could have on business operations. Thankfully, solutions like GROW with SAP on AWS, can provide the confidence and software needed to peacefully transition to a new, cloud-based ERP platform.
