SAP Solution: SAP Solution Manager

Software must be put through its paces before it is put into operation. The quality of the tests is crucial, because those who carry out good tests find errors early on, thus reducing development costs and improving software performance.

The roadmap of SAP Solution Manager (SolMan) and SaaS solution SAP Cloud ALM poses more questions than it answers. One thing is certain: SAP Cloud ALM is not an adequate replacement for SolMan.

SolMan is getting its time in the spotlight: SAP has positioned it as the central integration engine of the Business Transformation Suite (BTS). But what exactly is BTS all about?

Once SAP SolMan is in use, "Make a wish" begins - but possibly even before that. From a consultant's perspective, you then hear questions like, "Can Solution Manager...?" How do we deal with that?

The term "eierlegende Wollmilchsau" describes something that "has only advantages, satisfies all needs, meets all requirements". According to SAP, SolMan is exactly that: the solution for (almost) everything. Do customers also get along with it?

In the age of digital transformation, small and large companies are constantly challenged to bring new and innovative software quickly and with high frequency to the market and thus to (potential) customers.

007: The film "The World is Not Enough" is certainly still well remembered by older generations or sworn James Bond fans (Pierce Brosnan).

Google is involved as a public cloud provider for SAP Hana and Hana-based applications and shows which features the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) offers and which differentiation points can be realized compared to other public cloud service providers.

SAP Solution Manager is loved and hated at the same time. SAP's compulsory measure is a "Swiss army knife" for ERP/ECC 6.0 and partly S/4. But the universal IT tool is not enough.

SolMan is the central tool for managing the entire SAP system landscape. Especially in the life sciences, the effort for implementing the regulatory requirements according to GAMP 5 can be significantly reduced.

When the first Focused Solutions presentations took place at SAP events, there was a lot of unrest in the SolMan community. Was the end of SolMan imminent? Was it to be replaced by a paid solution?
