In order to establish the SAP brand apart from competition as well as in a positive way in its own right the design utilizes extensive use of color. The onscreen evidence of color, mostly identified by the two base colors, becomes a very strong and easily identifiable brand quality. This is especially powerful in the current state of the software industry since few non-web applications use anything but grey. By this effect, just the very presence of color becomes a brand signature of the Enjoy design language. In support of the base colors, the color system of the SAP corporate identity is well represented onscreen through the large blue bar ending in an onscreen SAP logo.
The EnjoySAP language is designed not only to support its creator, SAP, but also to incorporate elements for the inclusion of the customers or the partners own branding needs. This is designed to imply a greater-sum value created by cooperation between SAP and the customer. The customer is able to add their own color system by adjusting the base color system of their users systems at install. By doing this, they can establish a default software brand appearance for their entire enterprise.
