Zilliant Experiencing Rapid Adoption By Companies Who Run SAP

Zilliant announced today that since achieving "Powered by NetWeaver" certification, it has seen a significant increase in customers that are running or planning to deploy SAP applications.

Their applications were easy to integrate and adapt to our existing processes and systems.

Austin, TX (PRWEB) April 16, 2007 -- Zilliant, the leading provider of price optimization and management software, announced today that since achieving "Powered by NetWeaver" certification, it has seen a significant increase in customers that are running or planning to deploy SAP applications. Numerous global corporations including Insight Enterprises, Smith and Nephew, and the Schneider Electric North American Operating Division have selected Zilliant as their data-driven price management solution in part because of Zilliant's compatibility with SAP platforms and applications.

Zilliant attributes this momentum to a combination of factors. Its unique scientific approach to price optimization and management is proven to deliver significant margin lift for manufacturers, high-tech companies and distributors, three of SAP's key verticals. Additionally, Zilliant's Powered by Netweaver certification and its numerous SAP-integrated deployments have validated technical compatibility and ease of integration.

"Our primary reason for selecting Zilliant was their demonstrated ability to help global companies like Insight grow the bottom line," said David Rice, Chief Information Officer for Insight Enterprises. "Their SAP qualifications and expertise have also proven mission-critical, streamlining integration with our mySAP infrastructure and processes."

Zilliant Precision Pricing Suite(TM) (ZPPS) applies proprietary pricing science to transactional and master data from SAP to segment and optimize pricing. In many deployments, ZPPS then feeds these profit-maximizing price recommendations back into SAP in the form of pricing guidelines that help sales people get the best pricing possible on every deal.

"Zilliant is helping us make better pricing decisions on hundreds of quotes everyday," said Neal Lyons, Director of Pricing Strategy for the Schneider Electric North American Operating Division. "Their applications were easy to integrate and adapt to our existing processes and systems."

"Companies are looking for ways to use data from their ERP, order management, and CRM systems to make more informed and profitable decisions," said Greg Peters, Zilliant CEO. "Deploying Zilliant pricing software is a powerful application of this strategy, improving profitability in a matter of months by leveraging data and augmenting existing applications, processes and platforms. Our investments in SAP compatibility and integration have enabled our joint customers to achieve the combined benefits of our solutions in a seamless and scalable fashion."
