  2. Microsoft And SAP ...Customers Who Have Implemented R/3 On Windows NT® References And Experiences www.microsoft.com/germany/partner/sap/us

  3. What Customers Are Thinking About R/3 On Windows NT “The partnership that exists between Microsoft, Compaq, and SAP gives me confidence that I can provide immediate, quick responses to any situation with a minimum of staff and a fraction of the tools I would need with another system” Ed Bye, Monier Inc. “Windows NT is very stabile. The system performance even exceeded some of our expectations” Ronald M. Seipold, WAP “Windows NT provides a uniform operating system environment for SAP R/3, for Microsoft Office products and for the network. The graphic user interface makes working with the system a lot easier for the user. This solution simplifies system management, also reducing the hardware and maintenance costs” Gisbert Poiger, Getzner, Mutter& Cie “The decision to use Windows NT was initially based on cost factors. Windows NT is certainly the most attractive operating system for R/3 in terms of price/performance” Wolfgang Hermle, Bally www.microsoft.com/germany/partner/sap/us

  4. Market Share R/3 NT Status 01/98 • >4.000 R/3 NT Installations WW • > 30% of all R/3 Installations • > 50% of all new R/3 Installations • > 800 R/3 NT Installations on SQL Server www.microsoft.com/germany/partner/sap/us

  5. FI, CO, MM, parts of PS, 200 named, 160 active users, Windows NT and Oracle, Compaq Monier Inc. Case study available • Ed Bye, IT director, Monier Inc. : • “The benefits were unbelievable. We now have, as a company, immediate access to detailed information that traditionally took a significant period of time to gather. The partnership that exists between Microsoft, Compaq, and SAP gives me confidence that I can provide immediate, quick responses to any situation with a minimum of staff and a fraction of the tools I would need with another system” • Why Monier chose Windows NT: • Seamless integration between the operating system, SAP R/3, and Microsoft Office for Windows® 95 • Allowance for local autonomy of remote sites while providing the capability to manage the system from a centralized location • Reduced learning curve and lower support costs because the software is easier to use www.microsoft.com/germany/partner/sap/us

  6. New Brunswick Power Case Study available • FI, CO, MM, parts of PS • 1,200 active, 150 concurrent users • Windows NT and SQL Server • Gerry Schwartz, Manager Computer Services, NB Power: • “Economics was always a factor. We don’t have money to throw away, and the combination of Microsoft products are the best value on the market. It was important for us to pick an operating system that would be around for 10 or 20 years, and Windows NT Server is the only modern operating system in the nineties.” • Why NB Power chose Windows NT: • Easy management, including the ability to monitor servers at remote sites using Windows NT Server management tools. • Intuitive, user-friendly interface, resulting in reduced learning curve, lowered support costs, and increased employee productivity. • Non-proprietary system, offering compatibility across a wide range of software and hardware platforms. www.microsoft.com/germany/partner/sap/us

  8. Case study available Lyondell Petrochemical • SD since Oct. ’95, all other R/3 modules planned • 300 concurrent users • Windows NT and SQL Server, Compaq • Randy Lewis, Information Systems director for Lyondell: • “We feel very comfortable that the ProLiant servers and SQL Server can meet all of our application needs” • “Windows NT and SQL Server are a way into the future” • “We chose a platform combination that could grow with our long-range goal of operating the entire company on a client/server platform” • “If one application server fails, the others can take over without ever affecting the customer community. We also have a redundant database server being kept current all the time by SQL Server. Of course, we’ve never had a server failure, but we’re ready if it ever happens” www.microsoft.com/germany/partner/sap/us

  9. Siemens Nixdorf Case study available • FI, CO, AM, SD, MM, PP, • 900 named/350 active R/3 users, SNI hardware • Wolfgang Kuttner • R/3 Introduction Manager, PC Business Division: • “We have the best prerequisites for our business with modern technologies from SAP, Intel, and Microsoft” • Implementation: • The first step towards Windows NT was an R/3 test installation, with which some 200 users in the areas of Finance, Controlling, and Asset Management had been working productively since June 1995 - it was very successful right away • The host-oriented system software BS2000 and SINIX were both replaced with a client/server architecture - based upon Windows NT for the servers • The Human Resources module will be the final R/3 application implemented on the Windows NT platform www.microsoft.com/germany/partner/sap/us

  10. TRUMPF GmbH + Co. Case study available • FI, CO, AM, SD, MM, PP, HR • Hewlett-Packard NetServers Key reasons for choosing SAP R/3 and Windows NT: • R/3 was able to support the corporate-wide business reengineering project with international orientation scalability, long-term product availability, and worldwide support • The simple operation of the Windows NT system, as well as its simultaneous use as a server for the office functions, were crucial to the decision • HP provided a trusting relationship and was able to provide hardware and services including outsourcing from one shop • Finally, the successful system tests and price/performance comparison of the system platforms with Windows NT on an HP® NetServer provided an optimal solution www.microsoft.com/germany/partner/sap/us

  11. VICTORIA Versicherungs-Gesellschaften (Insurance) Case study available • FI, CO, MM, HR, IS-IS ABAP/4 Development Workbench, • Windows NT, Hewlett-Packard NetServers • “We decided on Windows NT as our platform because we already have experience with Windows applications on almost all desktops, and we believe that Windows NT is easy to implement and also requires fewer specialists inside the computer center” • “In addition to standard applications, R/3 gives us a development platform which allows us a development platform to implement products very efficiently, quickly, and cost-effectively” • “With R/3 on Windows NT, we have a powerful, stable, and user-friendly solution” www.microsoft.com/germany/partner/sap/us
