SAP ECC is reaching end of life.

With mainstream maintenance for SAP ECC ending in 2027, the urgency to migrate to SAP S/4HANA Cloud is clear. Yet many organizations are still holding off—concerned about costs, complexity, and unclear ROI. But the longer you wait, the more you risk: rising support costs, exposure to security and compliance gaps, and a shrinking pool of ECC expertise.

Earlier ECC versions have already lost support altogether—and extended maintenance beyond 2027 comes at a premium. Without a plan in place, businesses could soon find themselves paying more to maintain outdated systems that hold them back.

Migrating to SAP S/4HANA isn’t just about staying supported—it’s about unlocking new value and modern capabilities, including:

• High-speed analytics and real-time insights powered by in-memory computing

• Embedded AI and automation that streamline operations and boost productivity

• Cloud flexibility and scalability through options like S/4HANA Cloud Private Edition or RISE with SAP

• Integration with next-gen technologies like IoT, predictive analytics, and machine learning

• Lower total cost of ownership (TCO) compared to maintaining ECC and legacy infrastructure
