Integrate SAP Integrated Business Planning in the daily operation of the core business is easy if the use of SAP HANA Cloud requires to increase in budget and is not possible for all types or sizes of organisations, but if your IT department requires to connect to on-premise data, connect to other data repositories on cloud or off-premise and customize reports for specific businesses cases, these tasks can increase the projected costs and require to adopt other SAP modules that can not be required at all.

Cons
SAP
  • The trial version is very limited, but it's a trial! But for the awareness of the platform, SAP could improve the free version.
  • SAP IBP has a lot of functions, but not all are easy to understand and put into practice. Maybe a better demo would be a plus for the awareness of all of them.

Alternatives Considered
SAP
It has been a while since we have evaluated inventory and planning related SAAS products. We have primarily evaluated the level of effort to custom build tools to support the planning team. The maintenance and flexibility required for each business area made it so that we did not have enough resources to centralize a solution that could be used by all demand and supply planners.
