Hello Trevor

1)

If you are a SAP customer then you can implement Solution Manager free of license charge. That means that you as a customer only have a hardware/operational cost to get it running and to keep it running

Depending on your support contract (standard vs enterprise) you will be able to use many (standard) or many+additional features (enterprise).

There are certain scenarios in Solution Manager that require additional license costs but those are mostly features that would be used to also manage non SAP systems / applications. For example integration of non-SAP components that are not part of your SAP system landscape into Service Desk.

2)

It's always a "easier" to start using SAP Best Practices and Solution Manager at the start of an implementation. That way you can follow the ASAP methodology.

Kind regards

Hi Trevor

You can check the type of support contract on SAP Service Marketplace or you can contact the customer's SAP Account Manager.

When a company is a SAP customer then they also have a maintenance contract so 1+2 go together.
