Transactions can be automated and this in turn helps with inventory management. Our overall regulation compliance has improved significantly.

Likelihood to Recommend

It is very well suited for B2B transaction, which applies to us. The risk management is also great as it helped us diversify our supply chain beyond the big tier one players.

It might not be the best tool for small business as they have lower transactional volumes and the features might be an overkill. The UI can be a little more friendly.

But overall, our company loves it!

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

SAP Business Network has proven most effective when there are influencer campaigns during product releases. However, I realized it was inefficient during the most active time of the day as the response rates slowed. Despite that, it was exceptionally effective in standard operation tests and made influencer contact intuitive and productive.

I have also worked with social media management tools like Hootsuite and Buffer. Although these tools are best for scheduling and cross-platform sharing, SAP Business Network is far more effective in handling influencer marketing and teamwork. The opportunity to participate in a closed platform for influencers and collect analytical data made SAP Business Network more suitable for our needs.

The platform provides Real-Time Perception that helps tackle critical issues like supply chain distribution, cost control, and compliance with Eco-friendliness Standards.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

With SAP Business Network, our credit risk management approach has changed. The learning curve was doable, and the support team has been working up to our requirements rapidly.

Likelihood to Recommend

It's great if your company requires you to plan for large numbers of suppliers and to track metrics around credit across all your industries. But it sometimes has a hard time dealing with legacy system integration, especially of an older ERP system. The platform is excellent at change monitoring as well as automating risk alerts, but can be slow to perform during peak usage periods.

For indirect procurement needs its a perfect solution as once you enable enough frame agreements and the supplier for the transaction purpose it becomes a one-stop shop for everyone within the organization. As a downside, a lot of issues can happen with a direct procurement adoption as SLAs are still pretty long and lack of customization limits the number of direct processes that could be executed.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We have been able to get updates on supplier capacity, stocked levels, and shipment status and use those to be proactive about some potential disruptions. The platform's encryption capabilities for data in transit and at rest give an additional layer of protection for sensitive data.

Likelihood to Recommend

SAP Business Network is perfect for supply chain complexity and global reach situations. It is a particularly good match for industries with sophisticated supply chains, like automotive or electronics manufacturing. Managing multiple tiers of suppliers shines by creating collaboration and transparency. However, it could be less suited to small-scale, localized production operations with simple supply chains, where many of its features may not be utilized.
