Why WalkMe is Essential for SAP ECC to S/4HANA Migration – and How GuideMe Can Help
SAP ECC support is ending in 2027, and organisations worldwide are under pressure to migrate to S/4HANA. While the technical migration is a major undertaking, the real challenge often lies in helping users adapt to new interfaces and workflows. This is where WalkMe and GuideMe Solutions come in.
The Shift from ECC to S/4HANA
SAP is moving users away from ECC and WebGUI interfaces to the modern Fiori experience on S/4HANA. These legacy interfaces will soon lose support, making migration not just a strategic decision but a necessity.
However, migration is rarely a simple switch. Many organisations find themselves in hybrid environments, where some regions or systems have transitioned to Fiori while others still rely on ECC. This creates complexity for IT teams and confusion for end-users.
Why SAP Acquired WalkMe
SAP recognised that technical migration alone doesn’t guarantee success. Without strong user adoption, even the most advanced platform can fail to deliver ROI. That’s why SAP acquired WalkMe, a leading Digital Adoption Platform (DAP).
WalkMe is now replacing EnableNow as the standard way to drive adoption across SAP platforms. It provides in-app guidance, automation, and analytics, helping users navigate new processes without disrupting productivity.
The Challenge for Organisations
Multiple interfaces: ECC, WebGUI, and Fiori coexist during migration.
Complex processes: Large enterprises have thousands of workflows that need to be adapted.
User resistance: Change fatigue and lack of training can slow down adoption.
Without a clear adoption strategy, organisations risk:
Increased support costs
Delayed project timelines
Reduced productivity and ROI
