SAP’s RISE program is positioned as a simplified path to ERP transformation. For many CIOs, the reality looks very different.
RISE often requires reimplementing large portions of the ERP environment to access a relatively small set of new capabilities—introducing multiyear timelines, subscription lock-in and significant operational risk. At the same time, maintenance deadlines and end-of-support pressure are forcing decisions that can permanently reshape an organization’s cost structure and flexibility.
In this engaging discussion, Eric Helmer (EVP & Global CTO), Luiz Mariotto (GVP & GM, SAP Services) and Krista Glantschnig (Product Marketing Director) share why CIOs around the world are rethinking ERP modernization and choosing a smarter path.
Discover how to:
- Avoid costly migrations and keep your existing ECC or S/4HANA core stable — even beyond SAP’s maintenance deadlines.
- Save up to 50% on annual support fees and eliminate millions in upgrade expenses.
- Accelerate innovation now with AI-driven orchestration and composable apps in the cloud, without disruption or lock-in.
Drawing on global insights and real-world success stories, this conversation explores how enterprises are turning their existing ERP from a system of record into a strategic advantage.
