Case Study: Stahl achieves faster, smaller SAP refreshes with EPI-USE Labs Data Sync Manager

Stahl - Customer Case Study

Stahl, a global leader in chemical coatings and treatments, faced challenges with outdated data in its SAP non-production systems, which were over three years old. The company sought to improve its refresh process to gain more recent data for testing and development, reduce its system footprint, and operate independently from its hosting partner. To address this, Stahl turned to EPI-USE Labs and their Data Sync Manager solution.

EPI-USE Labs implemented Data Sync Manager to refresh Stahl's ECC, APO, and BPC systems. This allowed the company to perform quicker refreshes over a weekend and intelligently slice data to reduce the size of its non-production environments. The results included a significantly improved test data quality, more confidence in testing accuracy, reduced infrastructure costs, and increased operational agility. The team at Stahl now performs refreshes independently several times a year, leading to highly predictable project go-lives.
