Upside Software Receives SAP Certified Integration Designation
Upside Software helps customers leverage existing SAP implementations during the contract management process
EDMONTON, ALBERTA, CANADA— Upside Software Inc., an integrated enterprise contract management software provider, is pleased to announce
that its suite of products
has passed rigorous testing leading to SAP Certified Integration. SAP Certified
Integration is awarded to independent software vendors (ISVs) for software
products that integrate and interoperate with certain SAP software technologies
and application program interfaces (APIs). This certification assures seamless
integration for current and future Upside Software customers that have existing
SAP implementations resulting in quicker and more efficient data transfers as
well as lower cost implementations.
Upside Software’s suite of
products includes industry leading UpsideContract, an enterprise-class contract
management solution providing full contract lifecycle management functionality –
including collaborative contract creation and negotiation, performance,
compliance and risk management, amendment and renewal processing, and event
management. As a result of the integration, users of SAP can directly access and
view critical contract documents stored and managed by UpsideContract.
Seamless integration of
Upside Software’s products with SAP allows companies to effectively extend the
value of their SAP investment by integrating it with a rich suite of products
that includes contract lifecycle management, sourcing & procurement, and
invoicing & billing, broadening the functionality, benefit, and return on
investment in all systems. Transactional data, pricing information and important
vendor records that exist in a company’s SAP system can now be verified against
contractual data resulting in greater supplier compliance. Terms and conditions
in finalized contracts are automatically transferred to a company’s SAP system
ensuring that contractual commitments are adhered to or any missed milestones
are brought to the attention of the appropriate individuals for further action.
“We are very pleased to
attain SAP certified integration,” said Ashif Mawji, President and CEO of Upside
Software. “This important certification demonstrates our strategic commitment to
partnering with one of the world's leading providers of business software
solutions.” Mawji continued, “In order for organizations to make intelligent,
well informed business decisions, their business applications must be able to
interoperate with one another. Having passed SAP’s demanding testing procedures
further demonstrates our commitment to our customers and to developing world
class products that have consistently set and exceeded industry standards.”
Upside Software has a large
number of enterprise customers that utilize SAP and already has extensive
experience in deep integrations with SAP. This certification status further
validates Upside Software’s commitment to strengthening its integration
expertise and credibility to the SAP platform.
