“When looking at vendors, we required that they have four things: global presence with staff on the ground in Europe, a significant number of top global companies as customers, the required certifications such as Safe Harbor and SAS 70, and a hosting alternative. Datacert [now ELM Solutions] met those requirements and provided the functional and technical requirements we had in place as well, such as global capabilities and multiple currency, tax, and VAT support.”
"We were looking for a new approach that would accelerate delivery of more information to finance departments, and SAP HANA provided that approach."
