Larry Ellison on SAP and Salesforce Paying Oracle for DB Licenses
ByPrimary Researcher September 26, 2019March 21, 2021

… a pretty good deal for Salesforce.”
On Workday
“As for Oracle’s other arch rival in the cloud, Workday?
Ellison dissed Workday in the usual ways, saying that it was winning 10 times more deals than Workday for a cloud version of the financial application known as enterprise resource planning (ERP).
We know that Workday doesn’t use Oracle’s database or any of Oracle’s technology. Ellison has said so.
So, every customer that leaps to Workday is a double loss for Oracle, both in the sale of the cloud contract, and the sale of the infrastructure that runs …

How Real is the SAP Machine Learning and Data Science Story?
ByPrimary Researcher September 9, 2019April 14, 2021

… the boundaries between what the different items do are blurred. By listening to SAP, you know less about a subject than before you started. SAP’s statement regarding analytics does not describe the analytics application that sits on the database. This would be the same as saying one is running ERP with Oracle 12c or IBM DB2. Analytics and ERP systems are the application. You work in the application. The application sits on the database.
What tool is being recommended to work with HANA? Does it seem like a tool called Predictive Analytics? That is what the screens shown in …

Why Pressure SAP to Port S/4HANA to AnyDB?
ByPrimary Researcher September 1, 2019May 7, 2021

… It means that every adapter or customization that exists for an ECC customer will need to be rewritten. This is a major effort, and the problem is that it does not come with a corresponding benefit because HANA underperforms competing databases. HANA’s database design is a poor fit for ERP, as we cover in the article Mismatch Between HANA and S/4HANA and ECC. SAP refused to benchmark its database against competing databases and created an entirely new benchmark that is not a good fit for S/4HANA or any ERP systems used, as we cover in the article …

What Percentage of Revenues do SAP and Oracle Get from Audits?
ByPrimary Researcher August 23, 2019February 3, 2024

… big ones, i.e. including SAP, get ~20% of their revenue from audits and going after their customers.. wonder how much they really make selling their products. Ask anyone who has been around the IT space for a long period of time and I believe you would have a hard time finding many say something positive about the big ERP vendors.., only that they are stuck with them. – Danny Borndal
Where is the Margin for Oracle and SAP?

… 4. The purchase price is at least ten times less than your estimate of what it would cost ot build the functionality in house.
5. You have real time pressures that would mean the time to implement would be a key factor in an implementation.” – Software Wasteland
The Story of ERP
There is a multi-billion dollar industry all focused on forcing companies to purchase packaged solutions. What SAP or Oracle or Accenture, or Gartner do not want buyers to even think about is under what circumstances do packaged applications made sense. This is true even though, after decades, the …

Age Discrimination As Yet Another Way to Reduce IT Labor Costs
ByPrimary Researcher August 13, 2019January 9, 2024

… said Anurag Rana, an analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence. “But SAP has a portfolio of good products that should help the company stay relevant in the long term.”
Has Anurag ever used an SAP product? If so, he would know this statement is not true. SAP has a very well-known ERP system, but the system is quite old at this point, and SAP’s new S/4HANA application follow-on to ECC is a regression in many ways. Secondly, companies that purchased ECC faced enormous costs and often purchased other SAP products like APO, BW, PLM, and SRM, that is …

The Sales Reason for the High Failure Rate of SAP Projects

… business or sales sense and seem primarily driven by the need to deliver a story to Wall Street.
SAP has not successfully migrated many customers to S/4HANA, which we covered in the article The S/4HANA Implementation Buyer Intelligence Highlights.
Customers that have been pushed to HANA have had very mixed results from what SAP told customers was a groundbreaking database.
Most of the internally developed non-ERP products like PO/PI, PLM, BW, APO, CRM, and many others have played themselves out. They are now known to be of low quality, and they are challenging to implement …

How SAP Resources Make False Statements About Brightwork Research
ByPrimary Researcher August 1, 2019March 24, 2021

… time reading my material, I could see how Paul might make this error — but his later accusations are more inaccurate.
Paul’s claim that I stated that a HANA database runs just the same speed or slower than a traditional disk-based one — we can guarantee that Paul can’t find anywhere that I wrote this.
The performance issue has to do with the column design of HANA being lower in performance for things like TP and batch jobs like MRP — which is covered in this article why HANA is a Mismatch for S/4HANA and ERP.

Are SAP System Integrators Simply Body Shops?

… coders, many fresh out of school, many offshore, many unqualified with no mentors or any real-life experience. The SI’s just fish candidates off the internet. The effect of all of this is implementation time and cost increase exponentially at the initial implementation and becomes a lot worse for ERP software upgrades. ERP software is not all bad however the fact most of the SI’s are nothing other than “body shops” plain and simple, they cannot and in all probability would not provide the compelling reasons for changing business practices over code customization. These “so-called code improvements …
