In addition, GROW with SAP enables midsize enterprises to engage with customers and get support from SAP’s global partner ecosystem. Here are some insights from SAP partners about the latest cloud ERP product:
NTT DATA Business Solutions
“Ask 100 customers what they need to move to the cloud,” said Jason Mausberg, managing director, NTT DATA Business Solutions Inc., Canada, “and 90% will say, ‘A predictable scope and timeframe.’ It’s often fear of the unknown that holds a company back from reaching its potential. We can help them level up by delivering a proven deployment process with a platform that’s cost-effective and scalable.”
Delaware
“Businesses know that there are significant benefits from a move to the cloud, but uncertainty holds them back,” says Filip Decostere, partner, Delaware. “GROW with SAP shows customers we can meet their budget and business needs. When they see the components and services clearly mapped out, moving to the cloud will no longer feel like such a scary leap, but a controlled, step-by-step process. It’s the assurance that they’re in good hands that makes all the difference.”
Cognitus Consulting
“I think GROW with SAP will be the tipping point for many businesses that are eager to change but have been waiting for a clear roadmap,” said Adam James, head of professional services practice, Cognitus Consulting. “And when you add the tools and methodologies, activation services, and community support, moving to the cloud becomes irresistible.”
