hi,

you can definitely move to SAP-BASIS.There are wide range oppurtunities for this module,in the scope of SAP-HANA there is more importance to basis

you can even increase your salary

yes your Experience counts in other way that you are in IT field

All the Best

The first thing I suggest is to give a try to some good companies which can offer a hike in the salary as windows system administrator itself. I think 8 years experience is great! But still if you are looking to start a career as SAP BASIS Administrator, then first sit and decide properly and then go for it. Yes SAP BASIS does have good opportunities these days and even it has great scope all over the world. The only thing difficult for you is to get your first job in SAP once you get the job and learn SAP BASIS then everything will be easier. I believe your previous experience might only be counted as an IT professional which is of course a benefit.
