What is and what does a partner of SAP Business One do?

This technological partner is a key figure for your company to unlock the full potential of these tools. Data migration, IT strategy, and continuous improvement... are just some of the solutions that a SAP partner can bring to your company. In this analysis, we invite you to get to know this figure in depth and explain why it is so important.

Why is the SAP Business One partner so important for your business?

Having a SAP Business One partner is an essential step to achieve a successful implementation and optimization of this ERP in your business. It is necessary to clarify that this software requires a complex implementation process by the partner, as, in addition to configuration, it is necessary to carry out data migration, integration with other systems, and software customization to adapt it to the specific processes of the business.

In addition, the partner must have previous knowledge of the market, the sector, the company, and its unique characteristics and processes.

In fact, the choice of a partner can make the difference between a successful project and a tortuous one. During the implementation, an experienced technological partner not only ensures efficient integration but also provides advice, continuous support, business analysis, and offers the most convenient SAP licenses and complementary solutions.

Responsibilities and functions of the SAP Business One partner

As you have seen, the figure of the partner is crucial when it comes to SAP Business One and any other SAP platform becoming a stronghold of productivity and efficiency within your company. Therefore, it is normal for you to wonder what are the exact responsibilities of this figure. These are the most important ones:

• Implementation project. The partner, through a representative, ensures which are the most convenient proposals for your business and the unique needs that need to be covered.
• Sales and implementation. This involves providing the software and ensuring proper implementation for each client.
• Consulting. The SAP partner also offers advice on which business solutions to choose and how to use them to further improve business operations.
• System customization. They adapt and configure the software to meet the specific needs of the company.
• Training. Another responsibility of the SAP Business One partner is to train teams to use the system properly, thus maximizing the advantages of the software.
• Continuous support. The partner's work does not end when the system is implemented. Rather, they ensure to provide technical support and system updates to solve any issues.
• Advice for business scalability. If your business grows, the partner is responsible for providing you with options to expand the platform.
  

The benefits of receiving support from an SAP Business One partner

Having the support of a partner specialized in SAP Business One has enormous benefits. Here are some of the most relevant ones.

Access to specialized knowledge

Guarantee of compliance with best practices

By working with a certified SAP partner for Business One, you also gain peace of mind, as they apply best practices based on experience from previous implementations. They use successfully proven implementation methodologies, such as the SAP Activate methodology.

Ongoing technical support

Another key benefit of collaborating with a certified SAP Business One partner is access to continuous and top-level technical support. All this, without the need to have a specialized team on staff or overload the IT department.

Possibility to efficiently leverage software updates and improvements

An SAP partner is in direct contact with the news and updates released by the company. Not only do we benefit from their system knowledge, but we also have early access to updates, with prior testing and validation that minimize potential risks of interruptions or misalignments.
