A recent Forrester study shows that SAP HANA changes the cost equation through simplification. It can help save costs on hardware and software, as well as reduce labour required for administration and development needs. SAP HANA supports various use cases.


Based on a composite cost model, HANA can save an organisation 37% across hardware, software, and labour costs, depending on various factors.

  • 70%+ on software
  • 15%+ on hardware
  • 20%+ on administration and development labour

In this case study, we project the reduction in total cost of ownership for an organisation using SAP HANA in conjunction with BW, ERP, and a custom-developed application. The cost saving projection is derived based on actual customer interviews conducted independently by Forrester.
