The solution has moved from a licensing model to a rights-based, subscription model in the cloud. Licenses are a capital expenditure so they have done away with them. Subscriptions are based on the number of users. 

The solution is very expensive, no doubt about it. There are different options for different market segments such as small to medium, micro, or large enterprises. 

The solution created SAP Cloud Private Edition for large enterprises. This option might run $200,000 for the subscription with 60 user licenses. The Fully Equivalent License allows one license to be shared across two to five users. For example, the 60 licenses could be extended to accommodate 180 to 200 users. 

The Public Cloud is a good option and is intended for small to medium enterprises. 

Business By Design SAP is intended for the micro category. 

The pricing depends on the implementation functions. I work with implementations, and the cost varies depending on whether it's an internal or external team and the contractual basis or employees involved. Typically, it could start from 100,000 EUR and go up to 1 mio EUR and be much higher if we include more SAP solutions, locations, and cycles. The cost would vary greatly based on the specific requirements.

I am not sure. However, extensions cost approximately $100,000 or$200,000.

I rate the product's price a seven on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive. SAP ERP is a costly tool. If you compare SAP ERP with its competitors like Microsoft or Oracle, then you may find that the products from SAP are a little bit cheaper when compared to the tools offered by Oracle. Compared to Microsoft, SAP is expensive.

The solution is expensive and is best-suited for large enterprises.

The pricing is based on the license per user, which I think makes the solution a bit costly, especially for Africa and Kenya. The price for the solution is the same for everybody, so they are able to generate the same revenue from companies in Europe. Basically, the prices of the solution are high, and we don't have that much revenue. We have to choose a mix of licenses for SAP ERP, so we can't choose just one type of license. Even though the mix of licenses has both expensive and cheap ones, one has to buy the expensive ones since there is a minimum ratio to be considered while purchasing their licenses. Additionally, our company had to pay 22% of the amount for the solution's licenses for maintenance and support.

The price of SAP ERP is much higher when compared to the other products in the market. My company makes early payments towards the licensing costs attached to the product. There are no additional costs apart from the charges paid toward the subscription-based license offered by SAP.

SAP is now the cheaper option, but if you compare pricing and the scope of the solution, SAP is the best option in terms of pricing because the scope is more comprehensive than other cloud solutions.

From my perspective, when you deploy it, the SAP instantly comes with several users and a pre-given user license. Each additional user added charges differently, and additional license fees are applied. Regarding HANA, there is a split in finance core asset management, inventory management, and supply chain, and they have buckets with the ERP on the previous version. There can also be add-ons. However, the standard things required by the business must be structured together and not charged as stand-alone as they are now with the HANA cloud versions.

Currently, the estimate for the license per user is between 20,000 to 40,000 USD. Although I am unsure of the exact number it costs in that range, every time I request a new user, I have to justify the need to my company because they claim it falls in that range per user license.

There is another technical team that is responsible for the licenses and the number of users. I don't directly handle pricing.

The pricing could be improved.

The solution can cost approximately $1 million a year for maintenance for a small-size company and can grow from there. Approximately $1 million is needed for a good-size company.

The price of SAP ERP is high, but it is worth the money. The maintenance and support can be expensive. There should be a different price model for businesses that are not as large to be able to afford it.

If the price of the solution was less it would be able to reach more of my customer.

I rate the price of SAP ERP a three out of ten.

The solution is expensive so I rate cost a five out of ten. 

SAP is quite expensive. It's a premium system. The other ERP systems are either similarly priced or cheaper. We pay a quarterly license fee for the product.

There is a license needed to use this solution.

It is on the expensive side. 

It was expensive. I rate SAP ERP about three out of 10 for affordability. This software is designed to meet the individual needs of each company.

I have no details about the pricing.

There is a one-time license that is needed to use the solution. The support is what is needed to be renewed annually.

When we talk about pricing it is expensive. On a scale of one to ten, it would rank a two. There are no additional fees but the user licenses are high.

I rate SAP ERP's pricing a six or seven out of ten.

The solution is less expensive than its competitors. But it is costly for ERP services.

SAP ERP is expensive compared to competing products. The general feedback from customers is that most people say it's expensive.

The on-premises licensing model comes with annual maintenance whereas the cloud-based licensing model is a yearly subscription. The tool’s pricing is normal and not expensive.

When you have a solution that is stable, reliable, and has a high performance as this solution, the price is going to be expensive. However, when you evaluate the service you are paying for the cost is quite reasonable for this solution.

I rate the product's price a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap or affordable, and ten is really expensive. The solution is expensive.

I don't know the price, but I know its licensing is on a yearly basis.

The pricing is very high. For enterprise-level organizations this may be okay, however, for smaller companies, it's likely not suitable. 

What happens is that if small companies implement it, the maintenance cost is very high for this kind of ERP. It's a problem for those companies who want to implement ERP, and they find implementation cost is higher and the license cost is extremely high. The maintenance cost is very high as well.

I would say that the price is competitive. Some components are available at an additional cost, depending on the type of contract that you have.

The product has high pricing. They provide a yearly basis license. The customers have to pay extra costs for support services.

There are several licensing options including paying an annual subscription or taking out a perpetual license. 

SAP is a bit on the costly side, but they also provide support and other things. We are paying for licenses and the use of the cloud.

The features on offer make it worth the price. It's not expensive in the sense that if the company needs the features, they will be willing to pay for them. They're necessary to the core business. 

The pricing is modular. You are charged according to the business process you want to take advantage of. However, it's a bit better than Oracle. For example, if I am using Oracle's finance and manufacturing modules, I need two licenses, however, in SAP, we only need one license that captures all processes we're using.

There are no additional costs beyond the central licensing.

The solution is quite expensive but for an organization the size of ours, I think it's worthwhile because of the information that goes into it and what it provides.

The software was around US$600,000 for 230 users and the vendor implementation cost was around US$1.5 million. The day-to-day cost of using the product is low. Just electricity and user administration maintenance.

It could always be cheaper. They don't have a very easy model of licensing, but large entities would get the upper hand in negotiating the license.

Look around at three or four vendors.

I do not have details about the price.

There is an annual subscription for the use of SAP ERP.

SAP ERP is expensive.

SAP ECC is not cheap but I consider it the best system for managing an organization's data and processes.

We pay annually for the use of this solution.

The licensing costs are slightly on the higher side. They need to make it more competitive.

It's definitely not the cheapest system to license and run. It could be cheaper. 

Typically, they offer yearly licensing agreements. 

To optimize the Licensing cost, please choose different SAP Users.

To minimize the implementation cost, try to adopt Rapid Deployment Solutions

Not known but costly.

This solution was initially costly until we moved to internal consulting which brought the overall cost of ownership and maintenance down. 

The costs are high in terms of licensing. It will be too expensive for many companies if they are considering using this solution.

The pricing of the solution could be a bit lower. It's on the more expensive side, as far as solutions go.
