SAP is the largest Business Software company in the world. Microsoft runs their business on SAP. However, 60 % of SAP’s customers are small to midsize companies.

SAP has several tiers of solutions depending on your company size. For startup and small companies, there is SAP Business One. For midsize and large enterprises who want SaaS, there is SAP Business By Design. And for companies like Coca-cola, (who runs SAP by the way), there is MySAP also branded as SAP All In One.
