German applications giant SAP has
announced its intention to acquire Syclo, a US-based company whose technology
allows customers to build mobile apps that call data from their enterprise
systems.
The acquisition adds to SAP's
existing mobile enablement portfolio, which is based principally on assets it
acquired along with database and mobile technology vendor Sybase in 2010.
Syclo was positioned as a
'challenger' on analyst company Gartner's Magic Quadrant for mobile enterprise
application platforms, for its Agentry mobile platform. The Agentry platform
can hook into back end systems including SAP, Oracle and IBM's Maximo asset
management software. It can be used to build applications for Windows Phone 7,
BlackBerry, iOS and, as of July last year, Android.
Syclo claims to have over 750
customers, including Lockheed Martin and Coca Cola.
SAP has had a 'co-innovation'
agreement with Syclo since 2009. The two companies have jointly developed an
"80% prebuilt, preintegrated" version of Syclo's SMART Mobile Suite
for use with SAP's applicaitons.
"For years now, Syclo has been
SAP’s go-to mobility partner for [enterprise asset management] and CRM service
projects in utilities, oil and gas, life sciences, telecommunications and many
other industries," Sylco s mobile solutions fully support the Sybase
Unwired Platform strategy and architecture, ensuring that the solution you
deploy today will be fully supported, upgradeable and complementary to your future
SAP mobility initiatives," it adds.
