Important! In 2027, SAP will end support for SAP Business Suite 7, including SAP ECC 6.0. Free support will be available until 2027, and paid support will continue until 2030. To stay within the SAP ecosystem after this period, you need to migrate to SAP S/4HANA 一 SAP's next-generation ERP suite. Improved productivity, real-time analytics, data and process simplification: this is what the suite brings to the table, allowing companies to operate more efficiently.

SAP ECC has been one of the most trusted ERP systems worldwide. As an on-premise solution, it integrates data across multiple business functions like finance, supply chain, materials management, production, projects, and HR. This integration makes it indispensable for daily operations, helping businesses improve workflows and maintain control.

However, the lifecycle of SAP ECC is nearing its end. Without ongoing support, businesses face growing risks, including security vulnerabilities and stagnated innovation.

Organizations must now decide whether to migrate to a new ERP system or move to SAP S/4HANA. If you’re unsure which path is right for you, LeverX’s SAP experts are here to help. We’ll guide you through the decision-making process and ensure a seamless migration to SAP S/4HANA, setting your business up for future success.
