Only five percent described themselves as satisfied with this and 20 percent rated their status as neither satisfied nor dissatisfied. \"Of course, this result does not hide the fact that almost half of the respondents do not like SAP's pricing policy. But I see this as a fundamental problem that customer companies have with all cloud solution providers,\" says Jens Hungershausen, CEO of DSAG e. V., summing up the result. And he adds: \"The planned annual price increase for SAP cloud services has caused a lot of criticism among DSAG members. An annual recurring increase in prices makes it more difficult for companies to move to the cloud.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bitkom has surveyed that one in nine companies using the cloud has a cloud-only strategy, which would correspond to SAP's goals. A further 36 percent rely on cloud-first, which means that cloud solutions are preferred for new projects and existing applications are moved to the cloud as required - a path also recommended by the DSAG association, among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For 35 percent, cloud-to-o applies, i.e. at least partially supplementing existing IT solutions. \"Almost half of all companies prefer cloud solutions for new IT projects. This is a clear signal to software providers,\" says Rohleder. The most common use is storage in the cloud (92 percent), followed by web conferencing (76 percent). Cloud-based databases are used by 60 percent, ERP systems by 30 percent, which is also reflected in the DSAG investment report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For SAP cloud solutions, 24 percent told DSAG they were making high and medium investments in the SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP). \"SAP is positioning the BTP as a central element of its strategy. Against this background, it is understandable that survey participants are considering this SAP cloud solution,\" said Jens Hungershausen.
