For any business that is in the market to increase their performance and efficiency using the technology offered by the SAP S4/HANA Cloud ERP, finding the right SAP HANA hosting partner is always the most important first step. Taking the time to get to know the reputation of the hosting partners under consideration is a critical step in narrowing down the selection to the best company to work with for the service.
Unfortunately, there are a lot of companies marketing services as a SAP HANA hosting partner that have limited expertise in using the SAP applications software and the HANA in-memory database. HANA is used with the full ERP Suite, as well as the financial software.
Scope of Services Offered
Take the time to consider the range of services any SAP HANA hosting partner is able to offer. There are some companies offering just the basics, while other hosting partners have the skills, expertise, and experience in working with the technology to maximize the potential for your business.
The best companies offering SAP HANA work very closely with the businesses, in a true partnership role. They assist the company in all aspects of the system, including the assessment of ERP requirements, the integration of the services that are best suited for the requirements of the business, and then ongoing management services for the software.
They also provide training for your staff, including for current employees at deployment as well as new employees as required by the company. In addition to these services, a top hosting partner is also fully prepared to work with the company to complete custom application development and integration.
Expertise
The expertise of the company selected as a SAP HANA hosting provider cannot be overstated. These professionals can streamline the integration process, providing a smooth transition from current SaaS or other types of business management software programs into the new ERP management software.
