SAP has been gradually testing and refining what Cloud provision works best for its customers – for example considering the pros and cons of a public versus private cloud approach. But this journey is very much still ongoing – and so organizations must understand the more recent changes and consequent challenges arising from SAP’s Cloud transformation. It is important to consider what level of control to have over your IT estate – RISE with SAP, for example, means SAP will have full control - and also what level of flexibility is needed in terms of custom developments, updates, and upgrades. Understanding SAP's licencing is another major challenge, striking the right balance between contractual terms and required flexibility in the face of future uncertainties will be crucial to your organization’s success.
