While the last few years may have sown doubts and confusion within the community of users of SAP BI solutions, it is now possible to have a clear vision of the publisher’s BI strategy. Today, it’s possible to envisage the full range of possibilities, whether on premise or in the cloud, with real-time access to your data on desktop or mobile devices.
Based on our expertise, we have therefore decided to build our offer on 3 major axes to enable you to find the right solution to your reporting issues:
The BW offer
The SAP Data Warehouse at the heart of a proven, robust and high-performance BI solution. Our expertise in BW enables us to offer a wide range of services:
- Maintenance of your BW systems
- Support for your BW4/HANA implementation projects, or for migrating your ECC to S4/HANA
- Operation of your BW Embedded warehouse under S/4HANA
Thanks to our technology watch, we can provide you with the latest advances in BW/4HANA 2.0 (SP07) to meet your needs.
The SAP BI 4 offering
If for a time it looked as if it might disappear, we have yet to see another tool that could replace it, particularly for operational reporting. The arrival of the SP3 version in Q4 202 offers a modern BI tool in Self-Service mode, and we propose to take advantage of its latest benefits:
- Hybrid mode, combining BusinessObjects and SAP Analytics Cloud
- A simpler user experience integrated with Fiori, making users more autonomous, with customizable and shareable tiles, and improved scheduling and publishing.
- Simplified deployment with faster updates and new accessible data sources such as Google Big Query and Snowflake
The SAC (SAP Analytics Cloud) offering
The latest of SAP’s Analytics solutions, available online, is an all-in-one dataviz, predictive analysis (Smart Discovery) and planning tool, providing dashboards and strategic indicators for business and management.
It is an intuitive, easy-to-use solution for business users.
SAC is a flexible solution that can be connected to other solutions in the SAP ecosystem (BW4/HANA, S/4HANA, SAP BI4.3, BPC, etc.).
All these solutions complement each other, and can be considered independently of each other, for maximum flexibility.
Your solution will be the one that matches your needs, and Applium will help you determine the best target for your situation, your data depth, your reporting requirements, from scoping to production.
