FOSTER CITY, Calif., Feb. 6, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — Synactive Inc. announced that Liquid UI will become available today as a seamless and packaged upgrade from GuiXT, its legacy technology, through the Liquid UI Upgrade Program. Liquid UI – truly next generation when compared to GuiXT – is a robust SAP® optimization platform built for the modern digital enterprise, and focuses on serving SAP customers’ pressing and dynamic needs related to IT adaptability, flexibility, and security for SAP ERP®. In the era of fluid service and data connectivity initially afforded by the iPhone, Liquid UI brings a unified user experience in SAP ERP across the broadest range of devices, including iOS, Android, and Windows CE, in addition to delivering industry-leading performance and security specifications, which dramatically lower the barrier to entry for digital transformation.

For 20 years, GuiXT has been the dominant technology used to power SAP ERP productivity gains, but now finds itself challenged by the demands ushered in by JavaScript-powered platforms and on-demand mobile connectivity. For GuiXT customers on the road to SAP S/4HANA® and digital transformation, the Liquid UI Upgrade Program is the clear next step, as it allows them to non-disruptively leverage their current investment, while also adopting the powerful new capabilities built on the lessons learned from GuiXT.
Key advantages of the Liquid UI Platform:
- ERP mobilization across the broadest range of devices, from economical iPod touches to powerful Android-powered AIDC devices.
- Easy, centralized management of the entire SAP UX, including role-tailoring, via Liquid UI WS, Synactive’s open-source implementation of JavaScript.
- Mobile client-to-S/4 end-to-end encryption and SSO for industry leading security.
- Easy capture and integration of 3rd party IoT data into SAP ERP master data for enterprise-wide visibility and analytics.
- Seamless integration of 3rd party business data, such as from Salesforce, into any SAP ERP screen on any device.
- Dramatic acceleration of SAP system performance through sophisticated network optimization and load-balancing.
- Extremely short development timelines due to InPlace Edit, a WYSIWYG editor that enables modifications to the SAP UI at runtime by administrators.
Thomas Ewe, CEO, Synactive said, “Liquid UI represents a huge opportunity for customers currently using GuiXT to power productivity gains in S/4HANA. The new platform is engineered to be simpler to use, effortless to maintain, and easy to scale, while at the same time eliminating barriers to entry for initiatives like mobility, IoT, and SSO. And because upgrading is non-disruptive for both IT and business stakeholders, the feedback from customers has been overwhelmingly positive.”
