What is the difference between SAP Ariba and SAP Ariba Snap?

Hi Expert,

I am exploding the SAP Ariba Snap. I watched introduction video on Youtube but I am still difficult to understand.

Thanks!

SNAP is marketed to SMEs (small/medium enterprises) and as a streamlined version is cheaper and therefore quicker to implement.

It is marketed to enterprises bellow USD 1B in revenue.

The upside, is that it can be expanded and different features enabled as the organisations grows so it is a escalable solution.

Hi there,

As I simply understand,

SNAP is a limited version of SAP ARIBA, like a package of pre-configured solutions, ready to apply. Therefore, it can be implemented quickly (up to12 weeks only) with rapid ROI.

SNAP also can be expanded to the Full suite SAP ARIBA later on.

Hope it helps.
