If you're one of those people who still believes that enterprise resource planning (ERP) software from global business solutions giant, SAP, is too expensive and complicated for a small or medium business (SMB) like yours, you really do need to visit the SAP Africa stand at Futurex 2005.
SAP Africa is participating in a local expo for the first time precisely because companies like yours not only need to know in principle that there are ERP products designed specifically for them but also need to get a hands-on feel for just how easy they are to use, how affordable they are and how quickly they can be installed (never more than 13 weeks).
And, if you're dubious about whether or not SAP's new products - mySAP All-in-One for medium-sized and SAP Business One for small companies - are applicable to your industry, six of SAP's business partners will demonstrate how the solutions are already enabling growth in sectors as diverse as manufacturing, logistics, textiles, professional services and consumer products.
What's more, all the business partners are geared up to show you in half an hour how the products are benefiting SMBs like Banditos Chilli Company, Centurion Systems (manufacturing), Reef Minolta and Master Guard Power Systems (professional services), Lesotho Milling (part of the Tiger Group), Euro Paints, Extruda (components and engineering), Southern Star (logistics), and CMC Networks (IT infrastructure and networks).
Getting that sort of information by any other means would take you months. As SAP Africa's director of small and medium business, Brett Parker, says: "Condensing time, effort and cost is what SAP, all our products and all our business partners are about. So, naturally, our stand at Futurex will be living proof of that."
