After all, their inclination to move company-relevant data or even their entire ERP to the cloud is still limited.<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Haas:<\/strong> Companies - be they SAP customers or non-SAP user companies - do not generally refuse cloud computing. You have to differentiate here.<\/p>\n<p>A very large proportion of our customers from the SAP environment use our cloud offering intensively and have come to appreciate it very much.<\/p>\n<p>This is also because they can use it to quickly implement new integration requirements - be it a functional issue such as e-invoicing or a new technical requirement that would otherwise necessitate a major investment in in-house operations.<\/p>\n<p>Security concerns or privacy requirements often still stand in the way of the cloud. Seeburger also scores here with a wide range of private cloud to public cloud offerings - and of course with our highly secure ISO 27001-certified German data centers along with contracts under German law.<\/p>\n<p>The fact is that cloud usage is now ahead of on-premise usage at Seeburger when comparing license revenue with cloud revenue.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kleeberg:<\/strong> Those who want to can select and book a variety of cloud services based on industry best practices via the Seeburger Cloud Store, companies from the logistics, automotive or retail sectors, for example.<\/p>\n<p>Companies from the utility sector, for example, can use a ready-made cloud web application for energy trading - including automated interfaces to trading systems provided by our underlying BIS platform.<\/p>\n<p>Or web applications for electronic invoicing, for connecting partners such as suppliers and much more besides classic exchange\/mapping solution offerings.<\/p>\n<p>Seeburger had the foresight to focus on the cloud at an early stage.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Seeburger's certified solutions are used by thousands of SAP user companies worldwide.
