She Loves Me, She Loves Me Not: SaaS and SAP

admin · May 22, 2008 ·

From the Department of Irony and Confusion:

  • Businesses Reject SaaS as Core Platform
  • SAP’s Business ByDemand: The Perfection Conundrum
  • ByDesign, the younger person’s ERP
  • SAP Business ByDesign customers quietly confident
  • Decelerating ByDesign

See if you can find a common theme. The only one I could find: She loves me, she loves me not, she loves me, she loves me not,…

I really like the “rejection” of SaaS by customers that are in the middle of SAP implementations or run large SAP implementations.

As Upton Sinclair said: “It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on his not understanding it.”

Update: Dan Druker has a great, thoughtful post on challenges faced by traditional ISVs entitled Different is Hard: SAP – (Not Too Much) Business By Design

PaaS, saas, SAP
