I hate that he is actually right about this. SAP, Oracle, and Salesforce are general one size fits none solutions. Your going to spend a fuck ton of menu integrating these platforms into your work flow. Then spend more money maintaining the platform and on licenses. A janky home grown solution is better in a lot of cases

    No not really. With sap you get enterprise support response, a massive pool of specialists to hire from and a base that makes it easy to build exactly to your needs. If your business is good it doesnt matter that you spend more on sap because at the end of the day it gets out of the way and let's you focus on your business.

    I dont see many businesses that want to build their own solution and maintain it.

    I have seen so many shit show implementations and good money being thrown at bad. And so often all they needed was a simple script to calculate commissions or send a document to next person in the approval chain.
