SAP Cloud ERP (Public) – Your path to the future
SAP Cloud ERP: Standardized processes, maximum efficiency
SAP Cloud ERP is the modern, standardized cloud solution for companies that want to make their processes efficient, transparent, and future-proof. Unlike the private cloud, which focuses on individual customization, the public cloud offers predefined best practices and lean implementations—ideal for companies that want to get started quickly and benefit from regular innovations.
With quarterly updates, SAP ensures that your company is always up to date - be it with technological trends, legal requirements or industry-specific standards. By using the public cloud, you reduce complex customizing, minimize IT effort and secure a cost-efficient solution that grows with your company.
Advantages at a glance:
- Fast implementation thanks to best practice processes
- Regular updates without additional effort
- Transparent data & real-time analyses
- Highest security and compliance standards
- AI-supported functions for even greater efficiency

Modular license model from SAP
SAP Cloud ERP offers a modern and transparent licensing model that clearly differs from the traditional on-premises approach. Instead of complex named-user licenses with permanently purchased modules, companies benefit from flexible billing models that enable clear cost structures and easy scalability.
A key feature of the license structure is the so-called "nested" model. Higher-value licenses automatically include the functions of the lower levels. For example, a "Finance Premium" package not only includes basic functions such as Cash Management or Multibank Connectivity, but also advanced tools such as Subscription Billing or SAP Ariba Central Invoice Management.
SAP defines clearly delineated user groups: for example, operational users, who perform operational tasks such as ordering and service processes, or self-service users with limited rights for functions such as time recording or purchase requisitions. Developer users have comprehensive access to development and customization functions, while combo users combine both financial and supply chain functions. At the same time, SAP has introduced new minimum user quantities.
SAP's modular license structure offers you more flexibility: licenses can be adapted to suit your needs, innovations such as AI or sustainability tools can be integrated and operating costs can be better planned.
An early comparison between requirements and license model is essential. Transparency about existing licenses, regular optimization of user roles and contractual extension options help to control costs. Support from experienced partners such as INFORMATICS helps to develop the right license strategy.
