EU Opens Antitrust Probe into SAP ERP Support Practices

⚖️ The European Commission has launched a formal investigation into whether SAP engaged in anti-competitive conduct in aftermarket services for its on‑premise ERP software. The probe focuses on four practices: mandatory uniform support across products, blocking termination of unused licenses, extending non‑terminable initial support terms, and charging reinstatement fees equal to prior amounts. The Commission says these practices could limit competition from third‑party support providers and amount to unfair trading conditions. SAP says its policies follow industry standards and expects no significant financial impact.
