Flexible, consistent and secure copying of data

Your organization asks more of its SAP systems every day. At the same time your team is required to do more with fewer resources and less time - making it difficult to respond to the rapidly changing needs of the business. Rapid data growth, special projects and system upgrades and updates add to these challenges. Falling behind is a real threat as the status quo hinders your ability to keep up with the business.

Continuing to operate day-to-day in a reactive mode is not sustainable. It is essential to shift to a proactive approach to manage your complex SAP environments and masses of data and thus optimise your organization.

You can't meet these challenges with just desire and effort. You need game-changing solutions.

With the Data Sync Manager (DSM) suite of products, you can rapidly create new non-production systems, reduce the footprint when refreshing clients, copy selected data on-demand, and scramble data for security. This guarantees that your SAP users always enjoy access to up to date, relevant data for Production support, testing and training – you get the data you need, when you need it.

DSM is essential for day-to-day management of your system landscape and during installations and upgrades, for even the most complex SAP system landscapes. With DSM, you save time, reduce costs and risks and improve business efficiency.

Nothing stays the same in business, and events such as mergers, system splits, carve outs and acquisitions need careful handling as they affect your entire production landscapes. Our System Landscape Optimization (SLO) team, using a specially enabled version of the DSM products, is perfectly suited to implement these changes. These projects are complex, critical and always time-sensitive. They require powerful products, very experienced people and proven methodologies.
