Overview of SAP's Intelligent Solutions
- SAP emphasizes the importance of three factors for business competitiveness: intelligent responses, connected data across areas, and user-friendly applications.
- The goal is to create "intelligent enterprises" using a suite of connected solutions in customer experience, human resource management, finance, sales and marketing, and data management.
Key Technologies Integrated with SAP
- SAP integrates new technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to optimize and automate business activities.
- The focus on digital transformation highlights the need for scalable, configurable, and modular products offered by SAP.
Solutions Offered by SAP Based on Company Size
For Small Enterprises: SAP Business One
- Designed for small businesses, this integrated solution provides an affordable way to manage various aspects such as sales, finance, operations, purchasing, inventory, reporting, and analytics.
- It offers flexibility with deployment options including on-premise or cloud-based solutions along with mobile applications available for iOS and Android.
For Medium Enterprises: SAP Business ByDesign
- This cloud ERP solution targets fast-growing SMEs that lack integrated enterprise software. It connects all business functions dynamically.
For Large Enterprises: SAP S/4HANA
- As the latest ERP development from SAP designed for medium to large companies; it builds upon previous versions like R/3 and Business All-in-One.
- Available as a cloud solution or hybrid model but requires running on the HANA database system.
Transitioning from Legacy Systems
- Starting in 2025, support will cease for older versions like R/3 due to a shift towards promoting HANA as their own database provider.
- The transition aims at reducing dependency on third-party databases while enhancing query performance through HANA technology.
