SAP
Enterprise ERP running core processes in most large Indian manufacturers.

How we would actually choose
Choose Stripe when the cleanest API in payments and strong subscription primitives is the property your workload depends on, and accept that Indian domestic collection is usually better served by a local provider.
Choose SAP when process depth and genuine reliability at enterprise scale matters more, accepting that changes are slow and expensive, which is exactly why we build alongside rather than inside it.
In practice most production systems we build use both, routed by task. Standardising on one option for tidiness usually costs more than the tidiness is worth.
Orqent Labs holds no reseller commission on Stripe or SAP. We benchmark both on your workload and report what the numbers say.
Questions
Stripe or SAP, which should we use?

What is the catch with SAP?

Do you have a preference?
Not a fixed one, and we hold no reseller commission on either. We benchmark both on your actual workload and recommend from the result, which occasionally means recommending neither.
