Several times in the past, this blog series has focused on various big picture issues regarding environmental, social and governance (ESG) programs, compliance and carbon accounting solutions.
The Bramasol team at SAP Sapphire all agreed that it was one of the best events we've attended in quite a while, with lots of opportunities for deep engagement with SAP experts. We also met with many forward-looking companies seeking to accelerate their digital transformation roadmaps, launch new Digital Solutions Economy™ offerings, and/or optimize their compliance programs.
In this blog post, we are taking a closer look at two important initiatives from SAP with a focus on what they are and how they can help companies optimize their ERP systems and accelerate their business growth.
In this ongoing series about the Digital Solutions Economy™ (DSE) previous episodes have focused on DSE for specific industry segments such as DSE in telecom, media, electronics, medical devices, software/SaaS, semiconductors, transportation, energy, and utilities.
In this webinar you will learn about several tools SAP has to help companies manage subscription plans and models. You will hear from SAP BRIM expert, Navneet Bal, about SAP Subscription Billing, Subscription Order Management and Sales and Distribution and gain insights into key decision factors for picking the right one for your business model.
One of the biggest advantages of the return to in-person events is the opportunity for engaging with colleagues in those impromptu conversations that organically bring to the surface new insights. These unstructured talks create the kind of "ah-ha" moments that you just can't get in a half hour video call.
The Bramasol team had the pleasure of doing just that last week at SAP Insider in Las Vegas and it was both enjoyable and very informative! We saw a steady stream of booth traffic, great questions about our demos, excellent audience interaction at John Froelich's presentation on "Powering Digital Transformation with SAP Quote-to-Cash", and lots of sidebar conversations at lunches, dinners and on the show floor.
Here are four key insights and trends from our interactions with fellow participants at the SAP Insider Event.

Overview
Software as a Service (SaaS) is a delivery model in which software is provided over the internet, on a subscription basis, rather than as a product installed on companies' own computers. SaaS has its roots in the late 1990s with early adopters such as Salesforce.com, but it wasn't until the mid-2000s that SaaS started to gain widespread adoption. In the following decades, the growth of cloud computing and the increasing availability of high-speed internet made SaaS a more viable option for businesses of all sizes.
Today, SaaS is a multi-billion dollar industry, the fastest growing business model, and is a major driver of innovation in the software industry. Analytics firm Statista estimates that the SaaS market is worth approximately 146 billion in U.S. dollars and estimated to reach 195 billion U.S. dollars by 2023.
