SAP ISV Partners Deliver Enhanced Business Management Solutions for Small Businesses

Reflecting the spirit of innovation and collaboration that is energizing its offerings for small and midsize enterprises, SAP AG (NYSE: SAP) today announced significant enhancements to the SAP® Business One independent software vendor (ISV) certification program with 20 newly certified solutions, enhanced tools for easier solution certification and additional partner benefits. SAP ISVs including CitiXSys Technologies, Inc., Computer Decisions International, IronWare Technologies and numerous others are taking advantage of the certification program by developing, integrating and certifying new add-on solutions for SAP Business One, SAP’s business management application for small businesses. As businesses around the world require a broad catalogue of integrated functionalities to remain competitive, SAP PartnerEdge™ P2P Network allows ISVs and resellers to collaborate and meet specialized customer needs while expanding their global business reach. SAP Business One ISVs currently offer more than 330 innovative, solution add-ons featuring vertical-specific business management capabilities that enhance the SAP Business One application to support SAP’s expanding customer base.

The SAP Business One ISV certification program requires that an integration between an ISV solution and SAP Business One is in accordance with SAP’s strict integration standards. This certification process reduces product development costs and provides a fully established global partner network to open up new customer opportunities worldwide. By working with SAP solution architects to ensure ISV solution reliability and to tightly integrate with the SAP Business One application, partners can obtain certified status, allowing them to position their solution as meeting SAP’s global standard and providing a higher level of visibility with SAP’s fast-growing network of global resellers as they look to meet customer needs.

“ISV certification programs allow partners to greatly expand their potential customer base, providing them with the credibility and resources required to sell solutions across vertical industries in different regions throughout the world,” said Cindy Jutras, vice president and research director, Aberdeen Group. “By leveraging an easily integrated solution platform, ISV programs nurture collaboration and innovation among partner organizations, resulting in better solutions and satisfied customers.”
