These solution partners not only implemented the solution but also invested in the software and developed new functionalities and add-ons. SAP also improves and adapts BusinessOne to its new technological understanding by the time it becomes popular. So the companies that have been using BusinessOne did not change the software to S\/4HANA in parallel with their growing strategy, as SAP thinks. Nowadays, the functional boundaries are not as clear as at the beginning between two ERP systems. BusinessOne has the potential to attract a larger portion of the market.<\/p><p>On the other hand, SAP S\/4 HANA is still the main strategic software for SAP. Leading companies in almost each sector manage their operations with SAP S\/4HANA or an older version of this software. SAP still invests in that product and has extensive integration with all other SAP products. The ecosystem is very mature, and there are many customer networks as well. S\/4HANA is still the most powerful ERP and dominates the market in almost every country.<\/p><p>So, it is not easy to decide which ERP from SAP is best suited for you. It cannot be decided with some basic parameters, such as employee numbers, anymore. Expectations, budget, company culture, and many other parameters should be carefully taken into consideration.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-14be1d9 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"14be1d9\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-9ba9e0a\" data-id=\"9ba9e0a\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-7e461de elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"7e461de\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-338d1ba\" data-id=\"338d1ba\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fc9fd96 elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-heading\" data-id=\"fc9fd96\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"elementskit-heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-wid-con\" ><div class=\"ekit-heading elementskit-section-title-wraper text_left   ekit_heading_tablet-   ekit_heading_mobile-\"><h2 class=\"ekit-heading--title elementskit-section-title \">Digital Maturity Assesment<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<div class='ekit-heading__description'>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Startin Digital Maturity Model is designed to have a picture of your company's current state to understand the potential as well.
