  • ERP modernization means moving from heavily customized, on-premises systems to a cloud-first, AI-ready platform that connects structured business processes with unstructured content. Legacy ERPs limit agility, drive up cost, and constrain innovation. Modern, cloud-based ERPs—like SAP S/4HANA Cloud—deliver scalability, embedded analytics, and continuous updates. With OpenText, organizations add an intelligent content layer that unifies data and documents, turning ERP modernization into a true competitive advantage.

  • CIOs face four main barriers:

    1. Complex custom code and siloed data that slow migration and inflate cost.
    2. Disconnected content archives that add risk and hinder compliance.
    3. Change management—helping people adopt new, cloud-based workflows.
    4. Governance gaps as regulations evolve.
    OpenText helps overcome each one with cloud-first archiving, process automation, and embedded compliance, ensuring modernization runs lean and resilient.

  • Start by simplifying what you move. OpenText intelligent archiving decommissions legacy repositories, preserves historical data for audit access, and reduces SAP database size—cutting migration time, storage cost, and downtime. Unified content governance ensures every document is compliant and traceable, while automation eliminates manual work. The result: a faster, lower-risk migration and a clean, efficient SAP environment that’s ready to scale.

  • OpenText extends SAP’s cloud offerings with embedded content management, archiving, and automation built and certified for both RISE and GROW. For RISE with SAP, OpenText helps large enterprises modernize at scale, decommission legacy systems, and maintain compliance across global operations. For GROW with SAP, OpenText enables mid-market organizations to start fresh with a ready-to-run SaaS content foundation that keeps their ERP lean and AI-ready. In both cases, the partnership delivers a unified, high-performance foundation so businesses can run without resistance.

  • A clean core keeps your ERP streamlined and easy to update. OpenText information archiving removes redundant or outdated data from production systems while keeping it securely accessible for audits and analytics. This reduces infrastructure costs, improves system performance, and ensures compliance remains built in by design. With less clutter and risk, IT gains control and confidence to adopt innovations faster.

  • AI thrives on access to accurate, governed information. Modernizing ERP with OpenText connects process and content so data is contextual, compliant, and complete. This unified, intelligent foundation allows AI tools—like OpenText Content Aviator and SAP Joule—to find, summarize, and act on trusted information. The payoff: smarter automation, faster insights, and confident decision-making across every line of business.
