Given the maturity of the SAP Business One solution (56,0000 customers globally), we already know that the core functionality across finance, distribution, service and manufacturing is outstanding for the SME market. As SAP continues to deliver more functionality and technology into the SME market the focus is on the end-user:

  • Ease of use – making it easier for the end-user to adapt to the solution. Easy navigation, web client, clean screen layouts and an easily changeable user interface. Add user-defined fields and tables without the need for additional consultancy resources. These factors influence the ease of use.
  • Quick deployment – having decided to invest in SAP Business One all companies will want fast deployment. Pre-configures templates, reports, dashboards and data import templates help to reduce the time taken to implement SAP Business One.
  • Return on investment – all CEOs are under pressure to show a fast return on investment. Both sides of the equation matter – quicker implementation times (less investment) and ongoing improvements in the result – cash flow, customer satisfaction and profitability (the reasons we implement new business management solutions).
  • Low cost of ownership – the ongoing cost of ownership needs to remain low.

More than ever the SME market is demanding that ERP providers deliver more functionality for less investment. Technology is changing rapidly and is enabling faster, smarter delivery of ERP functionality to the end-user. The real focus points have therefore become:

Cloud – deploy SAP Business One in the cloud so that you don’t have to worry about infrastructure, IT resources and servers.

Mobility – access SAP Business One anywhere, anytime. Use the SAP Business One mobility app or web browser for remote access.

HANA – in-memory technology thanks to SAP HANA for SAP Business One that allows the instant analysis of massive data volumes. Analyse data in ways previously not thought possible.

Analytics – slice and dice data for better decision-making.

What’s important is not only the delivery of these technologies but doing so at a price and structure that makes it easy for an SME customer to consume. Well done SAP – you continue to deliver what SME customers want.
