- SAP e-commerce specialist AGETO helps customers pave the way for success with its SAP expansion for Intershop 7
- Expert partner with lengthy industry experience offers consulting and implementation services for international B2B and B2C omni-channel projects
Jena, Germany, 2014-8-21 — /EPR Retail News/ — Intershop, the leading independent provider of innovative, comprehensive services for omni-channel commerce, has awarded Gold Partner status to AGETO Service GmbH. In doing so, Intershop recognizes AGETO’s in-depth consulting expertise in the implementation of e-commerce systems and the integration with SAP and other ERP/CRM systems. Intershop CEO Jochen Moll says: “With AGETO as our partner, we are able to offer our customers crucial advantages when it comes to implementing their online strategy with seamless, efficient e-commerce processes. In just one year of close cooperation with AGETO, Intershop has successfully acquired several new B2B and B2C customers, including the office supplies retailer Papier Liebl, the Munich, Germany-based Occhio GmbH, and the regional subsidiary of an American company specialized in the field of medical technology.
Intershop’s prerequisites for certification as a Gold Partner include joint sales and marketing activities, a track record of successful customer acquisition and guaranteed minimum resources for project realization. The first joint project between Intershop and AGETO was the introduction of SAP Cartridge for Intershop 7: a standard solution making it possible to link Intershop systems with SAP, which received an overwhelmingly positive response from customers.
In being certified as an Intershop Gold Partner, AGETO continues to expand its service portfolio for international omni-channel customers. AGETO CEO Sirko Schneppe says: “We have gained a wealth of experience through our work on countless e-commerce projects involving different technologies. For us, Intershop 7 is a sophisticated standard solution offering a versatile modular e-commerce kit that we can adapt and expand to accommodate the wide range of scenarios of our B2B customers.”
Intershop CEO Moll adds: “AGETO has been on the fast track to achieving Intershop Gold Partner status. Prompt implementation of the ambitious joint business development plan between our companies demonstrates how our partners can succeed, particularly with small and medium-sized companies, by combining their expertise with our solution.”
In the next phase of the cooperation, Intershop and AGETO plan a joint marketing campaign and will share a presence at various trade fairs this fall.
