Business challenges have changed and so have the customer needs & demands. In the 21st century, if you are not using automation and a scalable solution, you are setting yourself up for huge expenditures in the future and laidback growth.

The best way out? Implementing a great ERP suite like SAP Business One. But is it expensive? Is it hard to maintain?

In this blog, our experts give a brief into how easy and cost-effective it is to maintain SAP Business One.

What does the maintenance policy say?

When you get an SAP implementation from a reliable and trusted SAP partner Cogniscient, you get a service and maintenance contract as well in the complete solution. Why should you care about this? Because timely maintenance of software means your technology investment is safe.

SAP partners even offer annual maintenance contracts where you get:

>> Up to date technology

Maintenance does not mean the guy comes in, brush the systems, and spray clean the servers. SAP maintenance means your technology is updated, the system has the latest release patches, is working the way it should be, and has all the security and compliance fixes. This also means if your current system configurations are acting as a hindrance, they will need to be upgraded.

>> New capabilities

SAP Business One is an intelligent business suite. What does that mean? You do not buy it once, implement it, and then forget about it as it is working as it is in your business ecosystem. Instead, SAP B1 is a scalable solution where the company releases new capabilities that upgrade the suite to the next level and automate more processes in your business making it a complete automation business management suite. 

>> Legal changes

Political landscapes are highly competitive and legal compliances can change suddenly. What is more is that when you are running a software suite across various business processes, it takes time to get adapted to the new guidelines. And another headache – update the compliance configurations of the software too. Not with Business One because SAP is pretty quick at detecting legal changes and implementing that in the suite.

>> Problem solution

Whenever a problem arises, there are two ways to solve it – either with a solution patch by the partner or by escalating the issue to SAP. If you are working with a great SAP partner, most problems would be easily resolved quickly by the team of experts with the partner. And should something have to be escalated, that is easy for a Gold partner.

How is this easy and cost-effective?

If you do all these activities yourself, you will be spending too much money and be under constant headache.
