Precisely launches Automate Evolve Cloud Essentials

Global data integrity leader, Precisely launches Automate Evolve Cloud Essentials, a cloud-native SAP® automation solution to give IT and SAP Centre of Excellence (CoE) teams centralized control, governance, and visibility over automation programmes, without the cost and complexity of managing on-premises infrastructure.

Over 60% of organizations cite business process complexity as the top automation challenge, according to joint research by ASUG and Precisely.   With SAP automation expanding across the enterprise, managing that complexity increasingly relies on on cloud-aligned automation infrastructure.  As such, Automate Evolve Cloud Essential is designed to help organizations scale business-led automation safely and efficiently, combining enterprise-grade capabilities within a fully managed cloud experience.

Unlike robotic process automation (RPA) platforms which lack SAP-specific depth, Automate Evolve Cloud Essentials is purpose-built for SAP teams and combines SAP-native automation with SaaS delivery.  Additionally the software supports SAP GUI, Fiori and HTML to ensure automations remain compatible through the ECC-to-S/4HANA transition to protecting existing investments.

“Automate Studio customers have processed billions of SAP records and saved millions of hours of manual effort,” says Ashwin Ramachandran, Senior Vice President of Product Management, Precisely.  “As these automation programmes expand across teams and regions, governance becomes just as important as productivity.  Automate Evolve Cloud Essentials gives SAP teams the control and visibility to scale automation confidently without adding operational burden.”
 
Whether a company is an existing Automate Studio customer with a large user base and library of automation scripts, or a new customer, Automate Evolve Cloud Essentials offers enterprise-grade capabilities in a fully managed SaaS package.  With no infrastructure to worry about, scaling SAP automation becomes simpler, faster and more cost-effective.
