SAP and Sybase launched a series of new mobile apps built on Sybase Unwired Platform aimed at mobilizing business processes and business information across key industries including manufacturing, consumer products, utilities, high tech, oil and gas, and retail.
These new mobile apps join the Sybase Mobile Sales application for SAP CRM and the Sybase Mobile Workflow application for SAP Business Suite that were released in 2010.
“Over the past 18 months, SAP has been releasing technologies enabling the rapid creation and deployment of mobile apps through our platform and development tools,” said Horace Chow, vice president, Sybase Asia Pacific. “Today, we are announcing several packaged mobile apps that will drastically reduce the costs and time needed for organizations to implement a mobility strategy.”
According to a survey of IT decision-makers by Forrester Research, in 201, over 60 percent of companies will make mobile applications a priority over the next 12 months.
