Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Oracle is an intensely competitive company with a deep base of technology and high-quality technical staff. Oracle developed some of its ERP products in-house and has complemented those products with others obtained through its acquisition of PeopleSoft (high-quality HR products) and Siebel (high-quality CRM products). Beginning with its first DBMS product release, Oracle has never been known to create easy-to-use products. It is known, however, for producing fully-featured products with superior performance. They are also expensive.
SAP is the gold standard of ERP products. SAP is used by midsized and large companies and offers the most extensive line of ERP products. It has recently introduced Business ByDesign and Business One as smaller, more lightweight options for small to midsized companies, and it is expanding its cloud offerings with Cloud for Financials and Cloud for Customers.
