SAP S/4HANA Cloud

Digital transformation is more than a buzzword.

In today’s fast-paced, ultra-competitive, and ever-changing business landscape, digital transformation is necessary for success and profitable growth.

Digital transformation involves embracing technology to create new—or enhance existing—business processes, culture, and customer experiences to meet changing business and market requirements.

A cloud enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution is a critical component of digital transformation.

"A modern cloud ERP solution is the catalyst for a digital transformation journey,” says Steven Wright, VP, Cloud Solutions at Vision33. “Artificial intelligence is at the forefront of that journey. Making the move to a great cloud ERP solution empowers businesses to be agile, flexible, and able to take advantage of the enormous pace of technological change we’re seeing in the world today.”

Richa Pande, Product Manager at SAP, joined Steven to host a recent webinar, Adopt Cloud ERP and GROW Without Limits.

Signs You Need Cloud ERP

How do you know when it’s time to embark on a digital transformation journey with a cloud ERP solution? Here are a few red flags.

Lack of agility. You can’t quickly deploy new business models or easily expand operations.

Inefficient processes. Nothing is automated and your business can't follow industry best practices.

Lack of visibility. You can’t get a clear picture of financial and operational performance.

Disconnected operations. If you ask three departments the same question, you get three answers.

Wasted talent. Skilled people are buried in manual, low-value tasks with no time for strategy and analysis.

A Single Source of Truth

A robust cloud ERP solution solves these and many more challenges for businesses that have outgrown entry-level software.

With cloud ERP as your core system of record, intelligent automation replaces manual intervention. The right cloud ERP solution delivers total financial and operational control and frees you to run your business insightfully and strategically.
