SANTA CLARA, California, May 18 /PRNewswire/ --

- Customers Benefit from Increased TCO Savings Across SAP Portfolio with Intelligent Impact Analysis

IntelliCorp, a worldwide provider of application lifecycle management, business process and data management software for SAP users, today announced the availability of LiveCompare(TM) 2.2. The latest version of IntelliCorp's unique intelligent impact analysis software enables customers to further reduce the total cost of SAP ownership (TCO) by expanding capabilities across SAP's product portfolio, with support for Business Warehouse (BW) and the Java technology stack.

BW is critical to a company's SAP environment, but its complexity means that costs and risks for improved business intelligence can quickly escalate, said Christopher Trueman, CTO for IntelliCorp. LiveCompare now brings SAP customers leveraging BW and Java the benefits of intelligent impact analysis for synchronization, upgrades, support pack implementations and all lifecycle activities.

IntelliCorp LiveCompare is the Only Intelligent Impact Analysis Software for SAP

LiveCompare automatically answers the two fundamental questions that underpin every SAP lifecycle activity: What is changing? and What is the impact of change? Empowered with the answers, SAP customers immediately improve efficiency, while reducing risk. LiveCompare's 120+ customers, which include 35 percent of the Fortune 500 companies that run SAP, have seen 25-30 percent TCO savings for individual lifecycle activities and experienced an ROI of more than 80 percent.

LiveCompare's system of impact analysis is intelligent because it includes a number of smart filters that eliminate false positives, which are changes that have no impact on the running of the system, explained Trueman. The new technology in LiveCompare positively affects every business and operational aspect of an SAP ERP system, including the reduction of maintenance costs.

LiveCompare 2.2 supports SAP versions 4.6 and above, including the latest ECC 6.0 platform on all SAP supported hardware and RDBMS systems. In addition to core ERP, LiveCompare is compatible with all SAP ABAB and Java-based products and supports SAP Industry Solutions that run on the ECC platform. LiveCompare is SAP Integration Certified and compatible with NetWeaver.
