SAP SuccessFactors is SAP's cloud-based human capital management (HCM) suite. Instead of running HR on an on-premise SAP system, companies subscribe to SuccessFactors and use it to manage the entire employee lifecycle: hiring, onboarding, core employee records, goals and performance reviews, pay decisions, training and succession planning. Because it is delivered as software-as-a-service, SAP ships updates twice a year and customers configure rather than code most of their processes.
Large and mid-sized organisations around the world use SuccessFactors, and many companies that previously ran SAP HCM on premise are moving their HR processes to it. That shift is the main reason SuccessFactors skills are in demand in HR technology teams and consulting firms.

ZebLearn's page does not name a specific SAP exam code for this course; its FAQ says the course certification is issued after passing a proctored exam. In general, SAP offers separate SuccessFactors certifications for individual modules, with Employee Central being the most common starting point for new consultants. Check SAP Learning for the current exam list before you book, and read our SAP certification guide for how SAP exams work.
SuccessFactors skills lead to roles in HR technology rather than traditional HR operations. Typical titles in the market include:
SuccessFactors functional consultant (Employee Central, Recruiting or Compensation)
HRIS or HR systems analyst
SuccessFactors support consultant on a managed-services team
HR digital transformation or implementation specialist

Yes. HR is one of the busiest areas for SAP cloud adoption, and companies moving off on-premise SAP HCM need consultants who understand both HR processes and SuccessFactors configuration. Employee Central is usually the first module clients implement, so SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central training is a sensible starting point.
ZebLearn currently shows its SAP SuccessFactors training at ₹75,000 as a limited-time offer, against a listed price of ₹1,20,000, with EMI and pay-later options. Offers change, so confirm the figure on the official page before paying.
Yes, and they often have an advantage. SuccessFactors is configured through screens and rules rather than code, so understanding HR processes such as hiring, appraisals and compensation matters more than technical skills. HR professionals who learn the system can move into HRIS or consulting roles that pair their domain knowledge with SAP.
If you are new to SAP HR, SuccessFactors is usually the better starting point because most new HR projects are cloud-based. SAP HCM still matters for payroll-heavy and on-premise landscapes, and many consultants know both. Our SAP HCM course guide explains where the on-premise module still fits.
Each batch on ZebLearn's page is listed as 8 weeks, with weekday and weekend options. Because the suite has many modules, plan extra time for self-practice on the areas you want to specialise in. Upcoming dates are posted at https://zeblearn.com/sap-course/successfactors-training-certification.
SuccessFactors and SAP HCM cover the same HR world from two angles, cloud and on-premise:
