Qualtrics and SAP will hope that an IPO can offer each company the best of both worlds: Qualtrics’ software bolstering SAP business units and its financials through strong market performance, with Qualtrics still benefitting from SAP’s customer base while having more independence to attract and compensate talent, make its own acquisitions, and pursue customers and partners outside the SAP ecosystem.
