How right you are. I have first hand experience of SAP. It took my company a whole year to get it set up with a 'task force' of about 15 people. When it was finally implemented you were only allowed access to the bits that directly concerned you or your department. It was extremely complicated and made what was an easy job very complicated, and as there were only 2 people remaining that understood it and could access sections that you sometimes needed to refer to, it often caused long delays.
