FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Answers about SAP contract governance, getting started and FinOptory

What exactly does FinOptory do?
FinOptory is a managed service for ongoing governance of SAP contracts. We combine a specialized platform with dedicated SAP contract expertise. Every 14 days our experts assess your contract data and deliver concrete recommendations.

How does FinOptory differ from SAP license management tools?
Traditional SAM tools (Snow, USU, Flexera) focus on license compliance and user counting. FinOptory addresses commercial contract governance: ACV tracking, phase management, derived charges, funding allocation and cost simulation across the entire contract term. FinOptory does not replace a SAM tool but adds the governance layer.

Who is FinOptory for?
IT leadership, vendor management, procurement and FinOps teams at companies with existing or planned SAP contracts. Typical clients have a complex SAP portfolio with multiple product types and need structured governance of their SAP contract relationship.

How does getting started work?
In a free initial conversation (30 min.) we clarify whether there is a governance need. We then recommend either a contract check (one-time analysis in 4 weeks, fixed price) or direct entry into the managed service. There is no long-term commitment without a prior assessment.

Which SAP products does FinOptory cover?
FinOptory supports 9 SAP product types: RISE with SAP, BTP, SuccessFactors, Ariba, Concur, Signavio, on-premise licenses as well as SLA monitoring and renewal/exit conditions. We look at your entire SAP portfolio, not just individual contracts.

Is FinOptory a SaaS tool or a consulting offering?
Both. FinOptory combines a specialized intelligence platform with dedicated SAP contract expertise as a managed service. The platform alone is not enough — it takes specialized SKU expertise to translate data into actionable recommendations.

Is my contract data safe?
Yes. EU hosting, GDPR compliant, SOC 2 infrastructure. All data belongs to the customer. At contract end, complete data export within 4 weeks, up to 4 weeks knowledge transfer. No lock-in.

Can I get a reference?
Our clients do not speak publicly about their contract details — we respect that. What we offer: a confidential reference conversation with an existing client who answers your questions directly.
