SAP and Sybase get closer to unwired business environment

Bill McDermott, SAP’s president of Global Field Operations, says it’s all about delivering easy, anywhere, any time, secure and full-featured access to valuable business information through tight integration with mobile device environments. “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,” he says. McDermott explains that, as a result of the two companies’ partnership, mobile workers will, for example, have instant access to customer data in both connected and disconnected modes via Sybase’s top-rated mobile middleware. “We are currently witnessing the proliferation of mobile devices that is transforming the way users interact with information and applications on a global basis,” comments John Chen, chairman, CEO and president of Sybase. “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 realising our vision of the unwired enterprise.”
