datango vs. SAP Enable Now® / WPB® - the better alternative
To utilize the extensive functions of SAP® However, to get the most out of it, appropriate training is essential. Although SAP® Instead, the in-house SAP solution® Enable Now® (SEN) offers, we believe that datango provides the better alternative here.
In this blog post, we'll take a closer look at the advantages of datango over SEN and find out why datango is the ideal choice for your SAP®-knowledge and ensure the progress of your company.
Keeping pace in the dynamic digital world
To succeed in a fast-paced and competitive environment, companies need a comprehensive and targeted digitization strategy that enables them to keep pace with the latest technologies and trends. An important component of this strategy is the continuous training of employees across different generations as well as the holistic support of processes, especially during internal change cycles. After all, only when employees can accept and use the new digital tools and processes can the full potential of digitization be realized.
In the course of this digital transformation, enterprise software solutions such as SAP® plays a crucial role. This refers to an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, which offers companies a comprehensive range of modules and functions that enable them to plan, control, and manage personnel, resources, capital, operating assets, materials, and information and communication technology in a timely manner and in accordance with the company’s objectives.
A key component of the successful implementation of SAP®-software in companies are the employees. It is crucial that there is a high level of acceptance for the change and that the new tools are not perceived as a disruption, but as a necessary step towards innovation and greater customer satisfaction.
The decisive factor here is that they feel "pleasure in" rather than "frustration with" the software. Another important aspect is the time needed for the "change" before operations return to normal. The decisive factors in achieving these goals are SAP®-Training sessions in an e-learning format. They enable employees to quickly gain a deeper understanding of SAP's functionality® and make full use of them. Through targeted training programs, companies can therefore ensure that their employees have the necessary know-how and ensure smooth operation and successful implementation in a timely manner. E-learning software should be capable of "workplace learning" so that parallel working is guaranteed. The support options should be as individual as the users. When introducing such extensive systems, particular attention must be paid to ensuring that the process documentation can be created simply, easily and quickly by the author.
SAP® Enable Now & Workforce Performance Builder systems - what's behind them
SAP® Enable Now® "(SEN)" is a software solution from SAP® itself, which helps companies create training and learning content for their SAP®-systems. SEN enables users to create interactive training materials, online help, and documentation to improve the effectiveness of training and enhance user proficiency.
The Workforce Performance Builder® (WPB) was the original name of the software before it was incorporated into SAP® was renamed Enable Now. WPB offered similar functionality to SEN and was therefore used by companies to create and manage custom training content. The renaming to SAP® Enable Now® was implemented to ensure tight integration with other SAP®-products and solutions.
Both programs are therefore designed to optimize employee training and professional development and help companies impart the knowledge and skills needed to use SAP®-to effectively utilize solutions and improve workflows.
But did you know that both programs are based on code developed by SAP® Acquired by datango AG in 2012?
