Navigating the 2023 SAP S/4 HANA Landscape: Rise with SAP Vs SAP Cloud Vs On-Premise
In the ever-evolving world of enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, SAP has maintained its position as a pioneer in innovation. From the launch of SAP S/4HANA in 2015, which redefined ERP with its HANA in-memory database and advanced features, to its latest offerings like RISE with SAP, the SAP landscape has continuously evolved to cater to the changing needs of businesses.
Rise with SAP: Revolutionizing ERP Adoption
Fast forward to today, and SAP has unveiled an innovative approach to ERP solutions: RISE with SAP. This offering presents the latest SAP solutions in a subscription-based model, aiming to lower the barriers for businesses to embrace ERP technology and accelerate growth through digital transformation investments. For new SAP customers, RISE with SAP becomes the default path to enter the SAP ecosystem.
RISE with SAP revolves around SAP S/4HANA, offered as a Business Transformation -as-a-Service (SBTaaS) model, and comes bundled with a comprehensive range of products, tools, and services.
Five core elements constitute RISE with SAP:
→ SAP S/4HANA Cloud

SAP S/4HANA on Cloud: Unleashing Cost Efficiency and Innovation
SAP S/4HANA Cloud stands out as a noteworthy contender in the SAP landscape. Offered as Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model, it brings a range of advantages to the table. One of its primary benefits is the lower total cost of ownership (TCO) achieved through enhanced standardization. With a multi-tenant server approach, SAP manages the technical aspects and software services, allowing businesses to focus on growth and innovation. Regular release cycles introduce new features and enhancements, ensuring businesses stay at the forefront of innovation.
SAP on S/4HANA On-Premise: Enabling Tailored Control and Flexibility
The traditional yet enduring approach, SAP S/4HANA On-Premise, provides organizations with a high level of control and flexibility. This model involves hosting the ERP within the company’s data centre or with a service provider. It’s an ideal choice for organizations seeking process variance, expandability as well as data protection and security. An important consideration here is the need for businesses to manage their SAP landscape, resources, and support, which provides greater control but also requires more active involvement.
