Sky achieves 'SAP®
Software Partner' status
Sky Technologies today achieved SAP®Software Partner status. Our
mobility and integration products, SkyMobile and SkyConnect were
re-certified by SAP back in August 2008, after a stringent
and detailed testing process. This certification was just one of
the prerequisites in attaining "Software Partner" status. Becoming
an SAP Software Partner opens many doors within SAP and gives us
access to the SAP partner-only portals for product, marketing,
sales, and competitive information and access and exposure to SAP's
customer base. This is an exciting step for Sky and will assist us
in increasing our already significant footprint in the world of SAP
Mobility.
