Editorial standards
The rules behind every page, published so that each claim can be checked.
Contents
Accuracy first
Every factual claim links to a source we opened, with the access date. SAP's dates and terms are taken from SAP's own pages and quoted as SAP states them. If we cannot verify something, we leave it out or say that it is not published.
Prices, examples and surveys
Prices are reported as published, with their conditions. Worked examples are labelled as illustrations and built only from published rates. Survey findings are attributed to the organisation that ran the survey and the outlet that reported it, with the sample size where it is given.
Vendor claims
Savings and performance figures published by a vendor about its own product are labelled as the vendor's claims. That applies to every option on this site.
Fair to every option
Each option is described in plain language, with its strengths, its limits and the companies it suits. Every profile says when another option is the better choice.
No paid placement
Nobody can pay for inclusion, position or wording. There are no affiliate links.
How we use AI tools
We use AI tools to help with research and drafting. Every factual claim is checked against its source before publication.
Corrections
If a fact is wrong or out of date, tell us. Verified errors are corrected promptly; the page's date is updated and the change logged.
