Like other small and midsize companies, yours may recognize the benefits of the SAP Business All-in-One solution but balk at paying for everything up-front and managing it in-house. Perhaps you are unwilling – or unable – to absorb the up-front capital expenditure. Or maybe you don’t have the in-house IT staff to manage the software and underlying IT infrastructure. Whatever your reason, SAP has a solution: the subscriptionbased hosting option for SAP Business All-in-One to minimize up-front costs and in-house IT requirements.

Power Your Business from End to End While Simplifying IT

The subscription-based hosting option – an extension of the SAP Business All-in-One rapid deployment solution – allows your organization access to an SAP Business All-in-One solution that is hosted and managed by a select SAP partner. You pay a flat monthly or quarterly subscription fee for use of SAP Business All-in-One, and you get everything from up-front hardware setup to ongoing application hosting and management.

Access World-Class Software Without the IT Hassle
Now you can take advantage of the enterprise resource management functionality of SAP Business All-in-One without the distraction of IT issues. With an experienced partner managing the software and the underlying infrastructure, your organization can focus on managing its business – instead of IT.

Reduce Up-Front Capital Expenses
By eliminating the capital outlay traditionally required to purchase a software license, you can get started with SAP Business All-in-One at a much lower up-front cost. Plus, because you can pay as you go, your software acquisition becomes an ongoing operating expense instead of a one-time capital expenditure.

Know Your Exact Costs from Day One
All costs associated with using and managing the SAP software are combined into one subscription-based monthly or quarterly payment. As a result, you’ll avoid all hidden costs and can gain better control over your operating costs and cash flow requirements.

Leverage Licensing and Deployment Flexibility
From traditional licensing to on-premise deployment to subscription-based hosting, your organization can adopt the SAP Business All-in-One solution in a flexible manner that best fits your financial needs and IT preferences.
