On the other hand, the IT support team itself often has many different tasks, mostly from very different areas. If the company is large and has a large SAP department, there are of course also special supporters, with explicit expertise. However, this is not always the case, and IT support in day-to-day business is usually the responsibility of the SAP system. And now the IT supporters are getting a message here that's patchy. And from that, the cause of the disorder is now to be identified. Questions are very often required. There are some real ping-pong games here that cost time and frustrate. As a result, tickets are often misdirected. Because support misclassifies them, it incorrectly prioritises them. This leads to very long maturities, to said frustration and ultimately to increased costs, because the operation may then cease. It would be ideal if the support gets a screenshot of the GUI beside the user's comment and additional parameter information, which system etc. Perhaps the information, how important this activity is, which can not be performed at the moment. In order to be able to prioritise the whole thing in the sense of the company.
In April and May 2014, the German-speaking SAP User Group (DSAG) e. V. interviewed 389 members on the topic Maintenance/Service & Support. Key findings are: The use of Standard Support and Enterprise Support remains the same in German-speaking countries. Enterprise Support requires more information about the benefits. DSAG members are largely up-to-date with their ERP systems. Over half use the latest versions of the Enhancement Packages. DSAG Survey SAP SupportThe relationship between Standard Support and Enterprise Support is, as in previous years, almost balanced. Austria deviates here with a significantly stronger use of Enterprise Support. "In German-speaking countries, users deliberately choose a support model and stick to it. The value is stable over the last few years and the readiness to change is low," comments Andreas Oczko, DSAG's Executive Board Member Operations/Service & Support. Only two percent of the support experts surveyed rely on third-party providers. Without a maintenance contract, one percent of the participants will be paid.
