Frequently Asked Questions
How do Solution Manager, Cloud ALM and Avantra compare?
In short, they don’t. Solution Manager is a legacy ALM solution for on-premises ECC and S/4HANA implementations. Standard maintenance for Solution Manager ends in 2027, and most customers will face extended maintenance premiums or be forced to find other solutions.
Cloud ALM is the next generation ALM solution from SAP, specifically designed for cloud-first, cloud-centric customers.
For public Cloud customers, Cloud ALM provides comprehensive lifecycle management. For Private Cloud ERP customers, Cloud ALM is designed to supplement additional Cloud Application Services (CAS) options or tasks designated as customer responsibilities.
Existing larger enterprises running SAP more commonly have complex existing SAP estates with significant implementations of ECC and S/4HANA and plans for extended migration projects moving to Cloud ERP Private incrementally. For these customers, a solution providing a single approach to observability, automation, landscape management, security and compliance for cloud and legacy landscapes becomes essential.
Avantra is specifically designed to address this need, providing comprehensive capabilities to Cloud and existing on-premises ERP from a single solution, anywhere SAP runs.
