What is SAP Business ByDesign?

Definition

SAP Business ByDesign is a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solution for medium-sized businesses for a variety of sectors. The solution’s flexibility and cost aspects have been reported by fast-growing companies as its main benefits. It allowed organizations to benefit from the seamless integration into business processes, easy adoption of processes, and an increased security level. In addition, the solution offers functionality in different languages.

With SAP Business ByDesign, companies were able to achieve their goals more efficiently at lower cost while increasing customer satisfaction.

However, it is highly unlikely that SAP will deliver further software enhancements. On the contrary, SAP strongly recommends its installed base to switch to SAP S/4HANA. Companies in this situation must revisit, assess, and clean up their processes and data.

SAP Business ByDesign vs. SAP S/4HANA

What's the difference?

Compared to SAP Business ByDesign, SAP S/4HANA offers several advantages. Based on the in-memory database, SAP HANA, SAP S/4HANA offers faster data processing and real-time analytics. With its wide range of functionalities, the solution supports the entire business process.
