zedIT Solutions Inc. Acquires SAP® Business One E-Commerce and WebCRM Add-on Products from SAP AG
St. John's, Canada, September 16, 2009 --(PR.com)-- zedIT Solutions Inc. (zed), a leading Information Technology Consultancy and SAP Software Solution Provider (SSP), recently announced the close of its acquisition of the E-Commerce and WebCRM solutions for SAP® Business One from SAP AG. Under the terms of the agreement, zed has the rights to develop, market, sell and support both products. The products have since been rebranded by zed and will now be sold under the names zed E-Commerce and zed WebCRM respectively. With nearly 20 years of industry experience, zed has been the ‘go to’ partner for SAP® Business One E-Commerce and WebCRM implementations and customizations since the products’ inception. This acquisition will assist zed to extend its market reach, while complementing the company’s existing core competencies.
Joining the zed team as the company’s Global Channel Manager is Mr. Tom Costa. As SAP’s former Senior Solutions Consultant for SAP® Business One, Tom brings invaluable product expertise and industry knowledge. Also joining zed from SAP is Mr. Bryce Blilie, Product Manager for the zedIT Solutions Software Suite (www.zedsuite.com), which includes zed E-Commerce and zed WebCRM, as well as zed B1WebAPI and zed Customer Portal. Bryce has been directly involved with the E-Commerce and WebCRM solutions for SAP® Business One since the products early beginnings. Combined with a strong and experienced development and support team, zed is ramped up and well positioned to bring the latest release of zed E-Commerce and zed WebCRM to a growing worldwide community of SAP® Business One users.
“I am excited about this change in product ownership and to have joined the zedIT Solutions team” says Tom Costa, Global Channel Manager. “We see this acquisition as a tremendous opportunity to focus on product development efforts that will make a substantial difference for our SAP Channel Partners and their small to midsized business customers in this challenging market. Today’s announcement solidifies zed’s continued commitment to the SAP® Business One solution, and it will allow us to go deeper into development with the E-Commerce and WebCRM products.”
Having recently unveiled a new product roadmap for zed E-Commerce and zed WebCRM, zed has significant plans for investment and expansion of these proven solutions, which to date have been implemented 400 times worldwide. “Companies need an easy way to integrate their online commerce with a robust and extensible back office system. The less a merchant has to do to get online the better”, explains Bryce Blilie, zed’s Product Manager. “Our product roadmap for zed E-Commerce and zed WebCRM focuses on enhancing existing functionality in the near term and adding new functionality based on valuable Partner and customer feedback. We have a well defined list of exciting new product features that will take these solutions to the next level. At the same time, zed has strategies in place to shorten the implementation cycle and ensure strong product support for our Partners with training and services options”, concludes Blilie.
Costa adds that the value zed places on its worldwide network of SAP Channel Partners is very high. “We will continue to look for new ways to enhance opportunities for SAP® Business One VARs”, he states. “As our Product team works to extend the functionality of these solutions, our Partners will be able to provide their customers with proven, cost effective, well supported, and customizable Web solutions that easily synchronize with SAP® Business One”.
