          FRUN LAMAS to SOLMAN: Navigating the sunset of legacy operations solutions and Cloud ERP migration

          As SAP Solution Manager, Focused Run, and Landscape Manager approach end of life, enterprises face a critical question: how do you manage operations, change, testing, and data during a long, hybrid transition to Cloud ERP?

          This Buyer’s Guide provides a clear framework for selecting modern tooling that supports both today’s SAP landscapes and tomorrow’s cloud-centric future.

          Why This Buyer’s Guide Exists

          Navigating the end of life of operations solutions while migrating to Cloud ERP is a multi-year journey.

          While much attention is given to functional migration and fit-to-standard processes, far less guidance exists for the operational reality SAP teams face during transition:

          • Parallel on-premises and cloud systems
          • Increased operational workload
          • Tool fragmentation and overlapping responsibilities
          • Uncertainty around SAP Cloud ALM readiness

          This guide was created to close that gap - helping enterprises plan for hybrid operations, risk mitigation, and continuity throughout migration.

          Read the Buyers Guide

          Our SAP Landscape is very complex; we can’t even imagine managing or monitoring it without Avantra. No other tool on the market can give us the same results.

          What You’ll Learn

          A Practical Framework for Tool Selection

          We break down the most common and most overlooked requirements that surface during Cloud ERP migrations, based on real customer experience:

          • Testing
          • Data
          • Change Management
          • SAP Operations

          These areas represent the highest risk and complexity when legacy SAP management tools are retired before Cloud ERP adoption is complete.

          Avantra platform options

          Automate, Automate, Automate

          The Avantra Automation Platform is built on the recognition of the growing connectivity of industrial environments and the need to both leverage and contain that. We do so for SAP operations by automating three functions which are mostly manual: observing the system status quo, communicating variances with those responsible for maintaining it and implementing improvements. Or, as we say at Avantra: observing, engaging, acting..
