 "SAP, Sybase Partnership Provides SAP Business Suite For Smartphones")
SAP AG and Sybase have announced a partnership centred around co-innovation that will change how users access critical business information anytime, anywhere . The two companies are co-innovating and collaborating to deliver the new SAP Business Suite software for the first time to iPhone, Windows Mobile and BlackBerry.
Through the partnership, users will have access to critical customer data in both connected and disconnected modes right from their mobile device of choice by utilising Sybase’s business process mobilisation technology. Sybase will work together with SAP to simplify the delivery of enterprise applications to mobile devices to speed up rollout and reduce end-user training for sales representatives and service personnel. Sybase will enable sales professionals access to the SAP customer relationship management (CRM) solution. While on the move they will be equipped with up-to-the-minute data on their customers that is synchronized with the enterprise applications. This co-innovation will also provide access to the new SAP Business Suite.
“We are currently witnessing the proliferation of mobile devices that is transforming the way users interact with information and applications on a global basis,” said John Chen, chairman, CEO and president, Sybase, Inc. “Today’s wireless consumers are provided with extensive features and functionality surrounding interaction, collaboration and information accessibility. To effectively carry this rich experience over to the enterprise, an open, standardised platform approach is required for interfacing between multiple application and device assets. Our partnership with SAP combines the world’s most widely used business applications with a leading mobile middleware platform on the market today, bringing us one step closer to realizing our vision of the Unwired Enterprise.”
“Our customers demand mobile access to proven business applications to stay connected to their customers, suppliers, partners and employees to drive innovation and productivity,” said Bill McDermott, president, Global Field Operations, and member of the SAP executive board SAP AG. “SAP is committed to helping customers adapt to business change and optimise the value derived from our leading solutions and extensive partner ecosystem. Working together with Sybase, we will provide the modern mobile workforce with the tools they need on the device of their choice, which will enable faster time to value, through access to business functionality anytime, anywhere.”
T-Systems, a large systems integrator in Europe, will work closely with Sybase to enable SAP end-users to take advantage of easy access to the new SAP Business Suite and mobile business processes and applications.
