Previously, the ByD market was defined as 50 or fewer users. And Business One is available in desktop form while ByD is not. "We expect a hybrid landscape, says Rinse Tamsma, SVP SAP Ecosystem & Channel. Tamsma has responsibility for B1 and All-in-One.This seems to acknowledge the belief in the market that ByD is too much for small businesses.

WITH B1 IN THE CLOUD, SAP REPOSITIONS BYD
SAP has announced a cloud version of its Business One software. SAP Business One OnDemand is described as being for the midmarket. The difference between this cloud and the Business ByDesign cloud? ByD is hosted by SAP and the B1 OnDemand will be hosted by the channel members. ByD is for 25-user operations, B1 less than that and that threshold went into effect in January.
