In this report:
SAP S/4HANA adoption continues to steadily increase as organizations move away from SAP Business Suite and SAP ECC. While that growth has not accelerated, the proportion of respondent organizations that have no plans for SAP S/4HANA is going down. This year, just 11% of respondents reported having no plans, the smallest number since SAPinsider started tracking this information in 2020. What is notable is that, while the move to SAP S/4HANA is still more likely than not to be part of a broader transformation, more respondents are focusing on completing their deployment as quickly as possible.

The survey asked the respondents to about their SAP S/4HANA deployment plans, the type of deployment they planned on doing, their cloud strategy, the timeline to switching to SAP S/4HANA, the length of their deployment, and factors impacting that deployment timeline, and the challenges that they faced in deploying SAP S/4HANA. As has been the case in the last four years, a system conversion is the most likely deployment model, and the most likely type of deployment is a standalone deployment. While using cloud-based infrastructure continues to be a focus for most respondents, this year saw respondents looking to simplify their landscapes with fewer planning on leveraging hybrid landscapes.
