Microsoft is
the Undisputed
Leader in R&D Investment How you can benefit

The Pace of Innovation requires more than just Top Performance, lavish Budgets and bright Minds

Innovation in the IT sector is currently taking place at an unprecedented pace. Vendors of ERP solutions who want to stay ahead of the curve have to deliver top performance. In order to keep up with this competition, lush R&D budgets are the first basic requirement.

But software vendors also need development capacities, bright minds and knowledge and experience in more and more fields. After all, there is no company that can automate everything with just one application. The traditional vendors of single category products such as ERP or CRM are now faced with the challenge of expanding their offering to other application areas.

Microsoft is a Pioneer in the Software Industry

Microsoft has the know-how, the experience and the solutions to create such an “end-to-end” platform and to develop it so that companies can do even more with it.

Cloud technology enables further innovation in areas such as artificial intelligence, low-code development, machine learning, robotic process automation and virtual reality. And at an incredible pace. What’s coming next?

Every Person and every Company should be able to achieve more

Microsoft’s mission statement is to “empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more.” Today, the Azure Cloud connects millions of people worldwide and is available in over 52 regions. It provides the basis for water management systems in Tokyo, education services in London and e-commerce companies in South Africa, among others.

In Comparison: how is your current Software Vendor positioned?

If you are not yet one of Microsoft’s ERP customers, we recommend that you find out about the current R&D budgets of your current vendor. You should also check whether this expenditure is sufficient to ensure a sustainable innovation lead.

The Level of R&D Investment in Companies depends on this

The investment that software vendors can afford to make in the coming years generally depends heavily on the size of the company and the growth in revenues and profits. The same question applies here: are you happy with your current vendor?

Opt for Long-term Continuity and Continuous Innovation

Microsoft provides its current and future customers with a wealth of modern applications, all integrated into the group’s intelligent cloud platform. The company can only afford the huge R&D spend due to its strong long-term financial performance, comprehensive product portfolio and successful sales strategy.

Choosing Microsoft as your future ERP software vendor is probably the most reliable choice you can make in terms of long-term continuity and continuous innovation.
