Every company has a unique journey to the Cloud. Enable yours with the best SAP AIOps solution.
Migration to Cloud ERP is rarely a simple “lift-and-shift” operation. Existing systems and customizations mean a complex cloud journey, while existing business demands continuity. Manage Cloud ERP migration and exiting systems on the path there without compromise.

The SAP market is experiencing a profound management change.
SAP Solution Manager (SolMan) and SAP Landscape Management (LaMa) are at the end of support. Cloud ALM is the advertised future for clean-core Cloud ERP but isn’t designed to manage complex hybrid environments. Customers with multi-year transitions from existing on-premises implementations and plans for hybrid operations require a comprehensive solution.
Third-party Artificial Intelligence for IT Operations (AIOps) platforms have emerged as critical enablers of migration velocity. Avantra provides the extreme automation and unified observability required to bridge the gap between legacy and cloud environments. Avantra AIOps agents are trained specifically on SAP operations expertise. Customers using Avantra automate proactive SAP operations, automatically identifying potential risks and resolutions to operational challenges.
Support existing business systems and Cloud ERP transition without doubling the Basis team. Automate daily operational tasks with Avantra and free your Basis team for strategic migration activities, actively reducing the risk, cost, and duration of the Cloud ERP journey.
Customers using Avantra for SAP Operations slash weeks from everyday SAP tasks including system refresh, HotNews and SAP Notes, and more.

Comparing SAPOps Solutions
The hybrid SAP estate is the natural outcome of an incremental and pragmatic journey to Cloud ERP. During this multi-year period, enterprise IT organizations concurrently operate legacy on-premise SAP ECC systems, newly deployed hyperscaler infrastructure, Cloud ERP and SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP). Hybrid increases the operational burden on SAP Basis teams tasked with maintaining legacy stability while simultaneously architecting the future state.
As Solution manager was ideal for the on-premises estate, and Cloud ALM is excellent for cloud-first, cloud centric SAP customers, Avantra is the best choice for SAP operations when firms require a single pane of glass across both.
| Operational Capability | SAP Solution Manager (Legacy) | SAP Cloud ALM (Successor) | Avantra (Specialized SAP AIOps) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Architectural Focus | Deep, highly customizable on-premise ALM; heavy footprint. | Cloud-native, SaaS ALM; standardized, fast time-to-value. |
Hybrid-native AIOps; unifies legacy, hyperscaler, and SaaS. |
| Deployment & Maintenance | Requires significant hardware; highly complex, costly upgrades. | SaaS-delivered; zero infrastructure footprint; automatic updates. | Agent-based and API-driven; near-zero downtime upgrades; rapid deployment. |
| System Refresh Automation | Required separate, costly licensing for SAP LaMa (now EOL). | Lacks deep infrastructure orchestration and database-level cloning. | Core native capability; reduces manual refresh times by up to 70%. |
| Hybrid Landscape Visibility | Capable, but lacks modern native cloud API integrations. | Designed primarily for SAP-centric cloud products; hybrid gaps exist. | Single-pane-of-glass across ECC, S/4HANA, RISE, BTP, and third-party SaaS. |
| Security Note Orchestration | System Recommendations available, but execution is highly manual. | Focuses on cloud security posture, less on deep legacy ABAP patching. | Ingests SAP HotNews automatically; assesses impact; automates patch workflows. |
| Automated Root Cause | None | Limited to Cloud ERP diagnoses | Modern AI engine with local execution trained on SAP expertise in on-premises, hybrid and Cloud ERP private operations. Automated diagnosis and best-next-action recommendations included. |
| Performance monitoring and optimization | Designed for legacy on-premises systems | Designed for cloud-centric Cloud ERP environments | Designed for hybrid SAP runtimes across on-premises, hyperscaler and Cloud ERP |
| Automation | Complex but capable | Lightweight and designed for less complex cloud-centric environments | Robust automation engine, including no-code authoring and designed for complex, multi-landscape SAP environments including hybrid and Cloud ERP private |
| Systems On-Boarding | Capable but tedious, lacking advanced policy-based features for monitoring large environments at scale. Often replaced with FocusedRun for complex monitoring tasks | Simple, effective but tedious at scale with no rules-based system for creating monitoring policy. Not designed for large landscapes and requires FocusedRun and manual integration for legacy systems support. | Specifically designed for large hybrid estates and managed services providers with thousands of systems running elements of SAP landscapes. |
