Read our analysis of SAP Intelligent Spend Group and SAP’s Ariba, Concur, Fieldglass for the last 12 months

05/21/2019 By and

Today’s news about SAP’s change in leadership at its new division (“Barry Padgett Leaving SAP and new Intelligent Spend Group“) had us thinking about Spend Matters’ analysis of the group recently forming and our ongoing coverage of its components: SAP Ariba, SAP Concur and SAP Fieldglass.

Since early 2018, Spend Matters has given PRO and SolutionMap subscribers deep insights into their solutions, including a comparative analysis of SAP Ariba’s S2P offering and a look at SAP Fieldglass’ Digital Network. Subscribers also have gotten head-to-head comparisons of SAP Ariba with competitors like Coupa, Ivalua, Basware, Tradeshift and GEP. (For companies considering SAP’s procurement solutions, Spend Matters’ SolutionMap Technology Selection Services are also available for procurement organizations that want a one-to-one map between their own business requirements and functional performance).
