| User Reviews |  | A good overview... rating: 3
This book is obviously a bit outdated but since finding good books giving you an overview of SAP is so hard, it may still be worth having a look at this one.
I bought this before starting a project as coordinator of data migration and found it gave me some good insights.
As mentioned though, a bit outdated.

excellent overview of what to expect and how to prepare rating: 5
The authors provide an excellent overview of what to expect when embarking upon the implementation of an enterprise resource planning system like SAP. They provide thoughtful insight on factors that should influence the decision to proceed with such a project as well as sufficient detail on the particulars of SAP.

Well worth reading - A great overview of SAP rating: 5
An excellent introduction to SAP by people who live and breath it. This book has excellent sections on Business Case, Functionality (showing the links between modules, not just functions)and Deployment Options. It really helped me understand what I was going into implementing SAP for my company. The Book has only two dissappointing sections. The chapter on process reengineering could have been better structured and applied, Hammer has better material. The walk through of methodology in chapters 17 and 18 was dry, uninspiring and again unapplied. More could have been written on ASAP.

A very factual description of the best ERP worldwide rating: 5
This book is designed for managers and deciders who are in an evaluation phase and compare different ERP solutions. R/3 is a world-class integrated ERP solution and the less risky possible choice. If there is any doubt left, this book will convince the reader. SAP is not just a piece of software, it's also a culture and a club. Belonging to it is a real asset in someone's career.

Very High Level Overview rating: 2
This book should only be purchased by those individuals that have just heard the letters S, A, and P all in a row for the first time. If you have absolutely no idea what SAP is, have no idea what an ERP is, or your company is still using punch cards, then this book is for you.
