The benefits of migrating our SAP ERP system from
Oracle to the SAP ASE database have been
outstanding. We’ve improved performance by at
least 100%, significantly simplified system
administration, and expect to reduce our TCO by
half. SAP Services helped ensure our effort was a
success by streamlining our migration process,
optimizing the system for our use and providing post
go-live support and on-site training for a worry-free
hand-off.

The benefits of the migration of our SAP ERP
system to SAP ASE from Oracle are clear: In just
2 months we achieved performance surpassing
that on Oracle which took us six years of
tuning to achieve. We were able to compress
data by 60% saving us storage space and costs.
And, our TCO was reduced even further with
significantly simplified administration removing
staff overtime requirements. SAP ASE on SAP
ERP is providing the technology to help fuel our
company growth.”
