Comergent Technologies Inc. is taking a different tack. Next month, the company will introduce Version 3.0 of its Distributed E-Business System, which creates an open network between a seller and its distributors and resellers and even directly to customers, preserving existing relationships and channels. The company, a subsidiary of Celanese AG, of Frankfurt, Germany, opted for Haht over SAP's solutions because Haht does not require programmers to be fluent in SAP's proprietary Abap language, said Bill Schmitt, director of business enablement for Celanese. Comergent's direct approach Comergent, of Belmont, Calif., allows sellers to host the selling application themselves, with small bits of software located on partners' procurement applications. The benefit is enabling customers to interact directly with a seller's product data and catalogs and then seamlessly pass off the actual sale to a distributor's or reseller's transaction site.
Pricing is based on configuration.
