With server licensing, each server on which our product is to be installed must be licensed separately. This also applies to non-productive server environments for testing, development, QA, etc.

Customers can often handle the implementation themselves due to how intuitive it is to use. If the customer’s resources are otherwise tied up by larger projects or a lack of capacity, they can usually hire partners to handle the task. We have a large number of proven implementation partners that we would be happy to recommend.
The user profile for our software solutions is essentially the same as the one for SAP data, meaning business users. Users may be BI solution architects, business intelligence project managers, or data analysts. Or they may be real data users, such as those from the sales/HR/controlling department. Put simply, almost anyone who processes, uses, or evaluates SAP data can benefit from our solution.

Our solutions access the SAP application server via RFC. Therefore, you are not able to directly access the underlying database. We advise against directly accessing the database. Access to SAP HANA Views is still possible via the ODP component. The advantage here is that you can conserve your HANA licenses used for direct access.
This answer ranges from classic data warehouses and cloud storage to BI and analytics solutions. We also offer the ability to integrate SAP processes in Nintex, SharePoint Online, and the Microsoft Power Platform. If your desired target environment is not included, please contact us or check whether the web services/flat files can suit your use case.
Yes, that is one of the great advantages of our universal approach to SAP integration with Xtract Universal. This allows for several use cases to be covered as required, e.g., both a direct connection to Power BI and another for transferring larger amounts of data via cloud storage or data lakes. These are priced separately and provided under a single license.
