To move from ECC to S/4HANA with ActiveControl
We save so much time, effort and risk. I don’t know how we would’ve carried out some of our biggest projects without ActiveControl.

Challenge
Transformation time
For VistaPrint, migrating to S/4HANA meant a warm hello to greater gains in operational efficiency and shorter time-to-value for its customers, and a fond farewell to manual processes that slowed progress and carried risk.
To deliver change at the speed of business, VistaPrint recognized the need to transform with the help of automated processes and pulling off a seamless, time-sensitive transition, managing changes and addressing risks between versions of its SAP environment.
Solution
Masterful migration
VistaPrint implemented Basis Technologies’ ActiveControl to automate changes across different landscapes and transition from ECC to S/4HANA. By streamlining the entire change management process and replacing extensive manual processes with automated ones, VistaPrint could reduce errors and effort while enhancing control, visibility and auditability – ultimately delivering on projects.
Outcome
Daily deployments
In just seven months with ActiveControl, VistaPrint migrated from ECC to S/4HANA and transformed their deployment frequency from one change every three weeks to daily continuous deployment. Since the migration, VistaPrint can innovate confidently without obstacles, shipping projects faster with fewer errors while driving customer satisfaction and revenue growth.
“Agility is in our DNA at VistaPrint. Although speed is key, safety and security are business critical. ActiveControl from Basis Technologies has given us the confidence across every area of the business to deploy SAP changes daily, without any issues,” says Mukul Agrawal, Director of Technologies at VistaPrint.
Our entire digital transformation over the course of the past few years, our capacity to conduct daily deployments: none of it would be possible if we didn’t deploy ActiveControl.
