What I like most about SAP S/4HANA Cloud is its strong Clean Core approach, which keeps the system stable and upgrade-safe while pushing custom logic to proper extensions. The API-first and CDS-based design also makes integrations and development more structured and modern compared to traditional ERP systems. I also like the real-time data model on HANA, which enables fast reporting without extra layers. Overall, it feels like a well-structured cloud ERP, as long as teams follow the standard rules.

What I dislike most is that the **Clean Core restrictions can feel quite limiting**, especially when you’re used to the flexibility of traditional SAP ECC. Some common requirements often need workarounds through BTP or APIs, which can increase complexity and effort. The **upgrade cadence and strict standardization** can also be challenging for teams not fully mature in cloud development. Overall, it sometimes feels less flexible, even though that trade-off is what keeps the system stable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
