SAP SE : New Version of SAP Business One With Key Features to Help Small Firms Go Digital and Run Live

Available both on premise and in the cloud, SAP Business One, version for SAP HANA, helps small and midsize enterprises (SME) and subsidiaries of large enterprises.

'We are in the business of garment trading and have outgrown our recent software solutions, consisting of various and somewhat disconnected solutions like Microsoft Excel. Therefore, we decided to implement our first ERP system with SAP Business One,' said Arun Gupta, founder and managing director, Nittu Creations. 'At the forefront is the benefit of one centralized system, which gives us insights across all functions within our business.'

The new version also introduces a project management module, which helps monitor the progress of tasks and stages, including all project-related transactions, documents and resources. Partners can now also reduce maintenance downtime by controlling both partner and SAP software tasks for their customers in a single stream with a remote support platform.
