PRESS RELEASE
MintWave Integrates Lotus Notes and SAP Applications in Three Weeks using Magic Software’s iBOLT
Japanese subsidiary of Takaoka Electric Manufacturing selects iBOLT integration suite based upon its extensive range of adaptors and easy-to-implement technology.
Or-Yehuda, Israel, October 12, 2009 – Magic Software Enterprises Ltd. (NASDAQ: MGIC), a global provider of application platforms and business and process integration solutions, today announced that its Japanese customer, MintWave Ltd., a subsidiary of Takaoka Electric Manufacturing has completed a complex integration of the company’s SAP Business One and Lotus Notes business applications, in only three weeks.
The introduction of iBOLT and initial setup took place in mid-March 2009. By April, MintWave was able to complete all integration linkages between Lotus Notes applications and SAP Business One and launch the fully integrated service.
Takenori Aoki, Team Leader of the ERP Promotion Team, Business System Division at MintWave commented on the choice of iBOLT, “We decided to use iBOLT because the other products we evaluated had either a limited range of linkage adaptors or high priced option fees. iBOLT on the other hand has a variety of adaptors included as standard. We also felt that we could develop our integration more quickly with a product that uses a building block-style approach making it easier to visualize business processes and make changes when we need.”
The iBOLT business integration suite is designed to integrate and orchestrate between diverse business processes and applications without the use of hard coding.
“Our end-users have been using Lotus Notes applications for many years so the transition to SAP Business One would have forced them all to learn a new user interface and functionality. Thanks to iBOLT’s integration, our staff can now stay with the system they are used to while the company benefits from the additional functionality of SAP at a low cost and without add-on development. iBOLT also prevented the need to repeat the same data input twice, once for the Lotus Notes Application and once for the SAP Business One system,” concluded Mr. Aoki.
According to Toshio Sato, President and Representative Director, Magic Software Enterprises Japan, “We are very pleased with MintWave’s choice of iBOLT and very impressed with their rapid integration design and implementation. We are confident that iBOLT’s code-free approach and proven adaptors for SAP and Lotus Notes played a significant role in helping them deploy their integration more easily. Looking forward, we plan to continue working closely with MintWave on their future integration projects.”
With the successful completion of their first iBOLT integration, MintWave now plans to integrate the accounting and SAP systems for the Takaoka Group’s entire portfolio of companies.
