SAP Business ByDesign - agile and different

I had an opportunity to explore SAP Business ByDesign the new offering from SAP which bundles agility, adaptability and on demand deployment in the cloud.
It was wonderful to see the new avatar of SAP and to discuss their strategy in delivering business solutions from the cloud.

The Agile and Different Avatar of SAP will rain in prosperity for Business.

Surprise was there was no reference to ERP in their brochures or by their sales people. the SAP Business ByDesign is a business collaboration tool, which is flexible and can be customized and rolled out in weeks rather then in months.

This is really fresh breeze blowing from Germany in the month of Oktoberfest.

Accelerated adoption by business of this solution will bring business agility and strategic advantage to them.
