SAP

SAP India was recently termed as 'Jewel in the Crown' of SAP worldwide. SAP India posted 67 per cent growth in the software licence revenue in the first quarter of 2008. The company's small and mid-size revenue rose by 43 per cent, while consulting grew by 34 per cent and education marked 100 per cent growth.

The rise was marked by software licence revenue and customer acquisitions that made SAP India the fastest growing region within SAP. The growth came across various verticals including utilities, Banking Financial Services and Insurance (BFSI), automotive, and retail.

While SAP added Delphi TVS, Easun Reyrolle, and IFB Industries as its new customers, companies such as Moser Baer, Sasken Communications, and Greaves Cotton moved to SAP from legacy platform.

SAP success story also touched SAP Labs. SAP Lab started operations in the year 2000 with 100 people and has been growing by almost 50 per cent every year until 2007, when it grew about 30 per cent. Lab's present headcount stands at approximately 3500 people.

On the down side, the lack of database applications continues to give its arch rival, Oracle, lead in vertical specific offerings. Also, Oracle last year inched past SAP in the CRM market.
