Bluugo Tracking Cloud® & SAP BTP – what’s the difference?
Everyone who works with ERP systems knows SAP. However, the new SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) seems to raise a lot of questions in many companies. In this blog post, we will investigate the strengths, weaknesses, and capabilities of the SAP BTP and see how it compares to Bluugo’s Tracking Cloud® platform.
SAP Business Technology Platform
When planning digitalization initiatives, one of the most pivotal questions is the choice of tools – what systems and tools should your company use to turn ideas into actual production-use solutions?
A common approach is to choose a tool that you are already using in your business, typically an ERP system. These systems do have an important role in the IT architecture, but they are often not suitable for modern use cases with multiple external stakeholders and rapidly changing business environments – more flexible and modern digital tools are needed.
In an effort to answer the evolving market demand for modern digital tools, SAP, the global market leader in ERP systems, introduced the SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) in 2021. The new platform is essentially a collection of solutions, tools, and products gathered under the same umbrella to integrate and extend SAP applications, enabling businesses to develop, deploy, and manage their own applications in a unified environment, fostering innovation and digital transformation.
