BA-Insight's SAP Connector Extends ERP Search Capabilities of SharePoint

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y., June 19, 2009 — BA-Insight, the global leader in Microsoft-based information access technology, today unveiled the release of their SAP Connector for SharePoint. This latest addition to BA-Insight's suite of Connectors provides quick and easy access to enterprise customer contact information stored in a centralized SAP application from Microsoft SharePoint and Search Server.

With over 80,000 companies using SAP, and a growing percentage of these companies implementing SharePoint and Search Server as their enterprise business platform, business people are finding it increasingly important to have instant access to information contained within their SAP application from SharePoint. BA-Insight provides instant access to this important information by powering quick search and easy access to an organization's most critical customer contact information. The SAP Connector provides intuitive pick lists for selecting which data to search: from manufacturing, to customer, to project. The customizable interface allows organizations to add their own custom search items to the list as well, while fully honoring security.

"Organizations today cannot properly leverage their ERP content for critical decision-making, and existing search applications simply do not provide the security or scalability to meet the needs of today's knowledge workers," explained Guy Mounier, BA-Insight's CEO. "This product fills the gaps in the SharePoint market by enabling employees to instantly and easily access the information they need most from their SAP application in the SharePoint platform."

BA-Insight's SAP Connector makes it possible for organizations to include SAP in their Enterprise Search strategy and take full advantage of their investment in SharePoint's single, integrated portal to manage content, facilitate collaboration and simplify access to information spread throughout the organization.
