# 5 Reasons to Move to S/4HANA

 Published by [Stacey Reitz](https://blog.shiperp.com/author/stacey-reitz) on  Apr 18, 2019 4:40:27 PM

![S4HANA Graphic](https://blog.shiperp.com/hs-fs/hubfs/S4HANA%20Graphic.png?width=700&name=S4HANA%20Graphic.png)

Let's recap on the five reasons you should move to SAP S/4HANA!

1. **Integrated processes: **With all your processes housed in one database and location, you'll have an easier time navigating and managing the IT landscape.
2. **Reduces processing time:** S/4HANA's digital in-memory system can run multiple batch jobs for transactions and/or analytical data with better accuracy.
3. **Better user experience:** Using a cleaner user interface like SAP Fiori gives end-users an easier experience for day-to-day processes.
4. **Scalability for future integrations:** When you're ready, S/4HANA provides the flexibility to stay on top of your innovation game by transitioning from on-premise to the cloud.
5. **Maximize resources & save money:** Who doesn't want to be more efficient AND save costs? Automation makes room for more resources and time spent on other projects.

Reach out to our [ShipERP team](https://shiperp.com/contact/) to get shipping integration help within S/4HANA! Email us at [sales@erp-is.com](mailto:sales@erp-is.com).
