Knoa Software announced a new version of Knoa UEM for Enterprise Applications, resold by SAP as SAP User Experience Management (SAP UEM) by Knoa.
This enhanced release builds on previous versions, accelerating the solution's value for SAP S/4HANA® implementations through increased extensibility of the Knoa UEM monitoring and analytical platform. These features also position the solution as a key analytical tool for initiatives involving SAP Leonardo.
The new release enables customers migrating to SAP S/4HANA to leverage user analytics for a broader range of SAP applications, including the latest versions of SAP Fiori, SAP Business Client, SAP Enterprise Portal and SAP GUI for Windows. Knoa provides an extensive portfolio of out-of-the-box monitoring capabilities for core user interface (UI) technologies used by customers running SAP S/4HANA and will continue to maintain a close alignment with SAP’s own roadmap for SAP S/4HANA.
This release also gives customers the flexibility to extend the Knoa UEM platform based on their specific business requirements, with two new fundamental capabilities:
- Extension of the monitoring platform for new application environments, including custom or non-SAP applications, via Knoa's software development toolkit (SDK)
- Extension of the analytical platform for custom reporting using third-party BI tools, via a REST interface, available for both on-premise and cloud deployments
“These new platform extension capabilities represent our commitment to support an increasing number of companies that want to leverage user analytics across their organizations' entire SAP software landscape and beyond, for a wide variety of use cases,” said Bogdan Nica, VP of Product and Services, Knoa. “We see a growing market trend of user analytics becoming a strategic organizational asset, used by companies as a best practice for all their critical IT and business transformation projects. Knoa is dedicated to support and accelerate this trend by enabling customer-driven innovation based on our unique technology platform.”
The new platform extensibility features are also positioning Knoa UEM for Enterprise Applications as a key analytical tool for initiatives involving SAP Leonardo, directly enabling the following innovation accelerators:
- Solution ideation and vision – based on automated insights into the user experience for the “as-is” system
- Rapid prototyping – based on the ability to collect actual user adoption and behavior metrics into the design thinking process
- Business case development – based on an accurate measurement of improvement in user experience and adoption for the new solutions

Enterprises are under pressure to scale AI quickly. Yet despite considerable investment, adoption continues to stall. One of the most overlooked reasons is vendor sprawl ... In reality, no organization deliberately sets out to create sprawling vendor ecosystems. More often, complexity accumulates over time through well-intentioned initiatives, such as enterprise-wide digital transformation efforts, point solutions, or decentralized sourcing strategies ...
Nearly every conversation about AI eventually circles back to compute. GPUs dominate the headlines while cloud platforms compete for workloads and model benchmarks drive investment decisions. But underneath that noise, a quieter infrastructure challenge is taking shape. The real bottleneck in enterprise AI is not processing power, it is the ability to store, manage and retrieve the relentless volumes of data that AI systems generate, consume and multiply ...
The 2026 Observability Survey from Grafana Labs paints a vivid picture of an industry maturing fast, where AI is welcomed with careful conditions, SaaS economics are reshaping spending decisions, complexity remains a defining challenge, and open standards continue to underpin it all ...
The observability industry has an evolving relationship with AI. We're not skeptics, but it's clear that trust in AI must be earned ... In Grafana Labs' annual Observability Survey, 92% said they see real value in AI surfacing anomalies before they cause downtime. Another 91% endorsed AI for forecasting and root cause analysis. So while the demand is there, customers need it to be trustworthy, as the survey also found that the practitioners most enthusiastic about AI are also the most insistent on explainability ...
In the modern enterprise, the conversation around AI has moved past skepticism toward a stage of active adoption. According to our 2026 State of IT Trends Report: The Human Side of Autonomous AI, nearly 90% of IT professionals view AI as a net positive, and this optimism is well-founded. We are seeing agentic AI move beyond simple automation to actively streamlining complex data insights and eliminating the manual toil that has long hindered innovation. However, as we integrate these autonomous agents into our ecosystems, the fundamental DNA of the IT role is evolving ...
AI workloads require an enormous amount of computing power ... What's also becoming abundantly clear is just how quickly AI's computing needs are leading to enterprise systems failure. According to Cockroach Labs' State of AI Infrastructure 2026 report, enterprise systems are much closer to failure than their organizations realize. The report ... suggests AI scale could cause widespread failures in as little as one year — making it a clear risk for business performance and reliability.
The quietest week your engineering team has ever had might also be its best. No alarms going off. No escalations. No frantic Teams or Slack threads at 2 a.m. Everything humming along exactly as it should. And somewhere in a leadership meeting, someone looks at the metrics dashboard, sees a flat line of incidents and says: "Seems like things are pretty calm over there. Do we really need all those people?" ... I've spent many years in engineering, and this pattern keeps repeating ...

If your best engineers spend their days sorting tickets and resetting access, you are wasting talent. New global data shows that employees in the IT sector rank among the least motivated across industries. They're under a lot of pressure from many angles. Pressure to upskill and uncertainty around what agentic AI means for job security is creating anxiety. Meanwhile, these roles often function like an on-call job and require many repetitive tasks ...
