SAP Solution Manager is a long-established SAP application lifecycle platform for monitoring, change management, testing and support. Organisations modernising ALM should inventory current scenarios before selecting Cloud ALM or another target.
Solution Manager and Cloud ALM have different coverage; validate the target against every actively used ALM scenario.
A practical SAP Solution Manager engagement begins with an inventory of the installed product and release, affected business processes, connected systems and decision-makers. From there, the team can define scope, data and integration requirements, testing responsibilities and a realistic transition or support plan. This is legacy expertise: confirm current SAP maintenance and product availability against your own contract and roadmap.
