DALLAS, Sept. 25, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SAPinsight today announced that SAP SE (NYSE:SAP) has signed as lead sponsor of the SAPinsight conference, Oct. 26-27, the only
conference and community for "business Super Users" of SAP software solutions. The conference will take place at the Irving
Convention Center in Irving, Texas, and will be co-located with the Americas' SAP Users' Group (ASUG) Dallas Ft. Worth Chapter
meeting on Oct. 27.
According to Southwest Airlines Super User Executive Sponsor Leah Koontz, Vice President and Controller, “The SAP Community and
annual Event have been a critical success factor for us making the right decisions about how to get our program started with a
foundation for long term sustainment and value. The program helped us optimize our SAP Investments for the next decade. The SAP
Super User program is helping us connect business process improvements across the SAP Platform and other systems. Why do it alone
when you have a ready and willing community to support you on your path?”
The SAPinsight conference is designed for "Super Users" and “Super User Leaders” within companies running SAP. These Super
Users play a peer leadership role to ensure that their colleagues receive optimal value from SAP business applications in the
context of business process execution excellence. These functional leaders support their teams in day-to-day operations, sharing
best practice knowledge, and supporting successful deployment, adoption and return on investment in business technology across
entire cross functional business process chains.
"We recognize the significant role that business process expert communities and peer-to-peer networking play in successful SAP
deployments," said Henner Schliebs, Global Vice President Audience Marketing. "The SAPinsight Conference and Super User Community
is unique in its approach to creating networking and educational opportunities for the many individuals spearheading innovation of
digital technologies at thousands of SAP customer companies outside of the usual technology community."
“I am incredibly excited to have SAP continuing to support the Super User Community. The success of this Community is a direct
benefit to the existing SAP customer base. We help companies to best leverage their existing internal resources, both people
and SAP solutions, for business process execution excellence through accurate, timely, and relevant SAP end user support, business
engagement and ownership in SAP projects, and ongoing operational business process improvements. This is so huge that, at
this conference, we are releasing the first ever book that faces Super Users, The Super User (R)evolution. This
is a game changer,” says Ginger Luttrell, Founder and President of SAPinsight.
“Super Users have long been connectors between technology and the business operations during projects, but in a more functionally
siloed approach. Everyone knows this is not working. We need true cross-functional collaboration, support, and business process
improvements on the business process execution level. It’s not just a dream, more and more companies are turning to formal Super
User Communities and realizing big returns. I think it’s a business imperative.”
