> Why is SAP still in business? Is it solely customer misinformation?

The lock-in is huger than huge. I don't think a single company on earth managed the art of locking in customers as well as SAP. Does anyone ever drop SAP? I don't know: the cases have to be exceptionally rare.

It's a racket. Highway robbery. This kind of behavior brings in a lot of revenues.

I personally do think the sale to the customer is complete and total misinformation. And once you've fallen for it, there's no way out.
