What is RISE with SAP?

At its core, RISE with SAP is a bundled subscription service aimed at helping SAP customers adopt SAP S/4HANA, move to the cloud, and ultimately transform into “Intelligent Enterprises,” an idea the software company has been touting for a few years. When SAP CEO Christian Klein first unveiled RISE with SAP a few weeks ago, he described it as “business transformation as a service.” In a conversation with ASUG, Sven Denecken, COO of SAP S/4HANA and head of product success at SAP, described the offering as being “like a concierge service to get that business transformation going.”
