SAP is a strangely technology-driven company on the inside.

They just solve a horrible problem: implementing everyones business process as they find them at the client, instead of the other way around, with legacy support for ages.

SAP (or Salesforce or whatever) comes in. Client wants new tech, but keep the business process the same. Lots of wasted money, tears, and anger. Client adapts business process.

The problem is that most enterprise do not reach the last step.
