London, UK – 11 November 2024 – Against the backdrop of the iconic Hockenheimring in Germany, Avantra, a global leader in AI-driven SAP operations automation, showcased its most ambitious innovations to date at its 2024 Global Summit. The event marked the official launch of Avantra AIR, an advanced AI copilot for SAP operations, and the announcement of the forthcoming release of Avantra 25, a new and further enhanced version of the company’s renowned AIOps platform.
“As the demands on IT operations teams continue to grow, our mission is to empower them to work smarter, not harder,” said John Appleby, CEO of Avantra. “With Avantra AIR and the upcoming Avantra 25, we’re giving our customers a competitive edge, enabling them to automate the routine and focus on innovations that drive their business forward.”
Changing gears across SAP operations with Avantra AIR
At the heart of the company’s latest innovation is Avantra AIR, an AI copilot that redefines the possibilities of automation for SAP environments. Designed to act as an autonomous assistant, Avantra AIR leverages over 20 virtual agents to monitor, detect, and address system issues proactively. From real-time performance analysis to automatic alert generation and resolution through platforms like ServiceNow, Avantra AIR minimizes downtime and empowers IT teams with actionable insights.
“The complexity of modern SAP environments calls for an intelligent, responsive system,” said Andreas Vermeulen, Head of AI at Avantra. “Avantra AIR provides just that – a system that can think critically about what it is seeing and respond autonomously, delivering support that goes beyond human capabilities.”
Key features of Avantra AIR include in-depth root cause analysis, preventive maintenance recommendations, and executive summaries, allowing teams to stay focused on strategic goals rather than firefighting day-to-day issues.
