- 22. Oligopoly An oligopoly is a market from in which a market is dominated by a small number of sellers Here SAP and Oracle are two major firms competing against each other Oligopolies can result in collusion which reduce competition and lead to higher costs for consumers. Decisions of one firm therefore influence and are influenced and are influenced by the decisions of other firms.
- 23. Analysis- SAP’s focus on small and medium sized business and on partnering instead of acquiring has helped it gain the edge over Oracle. Its policy of great customer service and support has paid off fro the company. Due to the higher complexity and degree of customization SAP proves to be a costlier affair than oracle which goes in favor of oracle. Oracle with the launch of its fusion application can penetrate in the ERP market. Even though these two companies are fierce competitors in the ERP domain, they co-operate each other when it comes to customer to customer service and support for their complimentary products. They compete on product differentiation and service rather than prices.
