# Navigating SAP’s End-of-Support and the Road Ahead

On-Demand

## The Risks, Realities, and the Path Forward

With ongoing industry confusion around SAP’s support timelines for legacy systems, this session will provide much-needed clarity on what SAP’s actual messaging means for customers still running ECC and other older platforms. While SAP has outlined extended support options, these do not guarantee full functionality or long-term viability.

This session looks into what this means in practice - covering the risks of relying on compatibility packs, the impact of staying on extended support, and the potential loss of critical updates, including regulatory and tax compliance changes. Additionally, it will explore how delaying modernization can lead to increasing technical debt, making future transitions more complex and costly.

Whether you’re considering RISE with SAP or evaluating alternative modernization strategies, this session will help you make informed decisions for the future.
