It is an extremely useful product when you have a tight-knit landscape integrated with SAP. It is also very helpful to reduce the manual effort of user provisioning when the GRC system is integrated with several SAP applications like S/4 and HANA. It is not really helpful in scenarios where multiple ERP systems are involved.

SAP Access Control allocates high security on our company data by encrypting data and safeguarding logins every time a user tries to access our applications and services. During initial setup, it can be overwhelming to customize features on SAP Access Control, that’s why I would advice prospects that are looking to implement it to partner with third-party service providers or seek support from the vendor post implementation team.
In our company, it is extremely important to have access control and to be able to manage the login of all the services and platforms that we use for business purposes.

I love the highly automated way SAP Access Control has to monitor my employees' access to any of the platforms we use at our company. SAP Access Control has an automatic monitoring which is able to tell me exactly the gaps in the login, what problems the employees are having during the login and also gives me an instant solution to the problem. This function is very important, it detects gaps in a matter of seconds without having to do anything at all.
SAP Access Control adds much more streamlined security for all my employees' login. All keys are encrypted and have an encryption code that is impossible to break. Adding additional security to my employees 'logins is extremely important, it maintains job security and allows my employees business data to be kept secure at all times.

Cons
I wish SAP Access Control had greater ease when using this platform for the first time. It is true that the SAP Access Control functions are very effective and do not have any type of errors during their application to control the login, but learning how to use the functions is quite a challenge, since it is somewhat complicated . I hope that SAP Access Control integrates new manuals or courses to learn how to use the platform.

SAP Access Control offers a job guarantee that many companies wish they had. Obviously I would recommend this platform to anyone, SAP Access Control is a very advanced service to control the login of the services used in a company, it has a very good work structure and helps employees to have a login with automated encryption. SAP Access Control is a platform a bit difficult to use, it is not easy to make the configurations so that you have a good protection of the users' passwords, however, I would recommend that the person who is thinking of using it in your company, hire a team in charge to make the implementation and its use easier in the short, medium and long term. It is a worthwhile platform, it protects all employee data and adds extra security to the login, in addition, it monitors employee activity with applications integrated to SAP.
