“SAP Managed Services Review 2018”

3.0
Dec 18, 2018
When we drew in with the vendor, we were anticipating that it should be SAP the organization, only to learn that it was an outsourced group to another vendor, and there was nothing we can do with selecting the vendor or the members. I think it could have been helpful if proper expectations were set. On the other hand, the tool itself is such a useful one. Very promising!

Like

It is a overall package which includes implementation, development and testing which I love most.

Dislike

1. If a vendor uses proprietary tools to manage SAP systems, the organization may face difficulty integrating these tools with other internal systems. 2. If the AMS provider operates in a different time zone or region, there may be delays in communication or challenges in aligning working hours. 3. As the provider manages updates and changes, there could be challenges in aligning those changes with the business needs, particularly when there are custom-built solutions in place.

Dislike

Merchant needs to tune in to the customer and guarantee the resources offered are suitable to client needs.

Dislike

I think cost is main concern for AMS
