The TOTVS-Microsoft Alliance

TOTVS and Microsoft have a lengthy history based on a mutual desire to grow and drive success for both companies. As the largest ERP company in Latin America, TOTVS is actively engaged with Microsoft in several key areas: technology collaboration, marketing enablement and partnership management. Together, TOTVS and Microsoft effectively balance business and technology to deliver value to our mutual customers.

Throughout its history, TOTVS has been an early adopter and aggressive promoter of key Microsoft technologies. TOTVS solutions are highly integrated into key Microsoft Technologies such as SQL Server and the Microsoft Office Suite. As a Global ISV, TOTVS is a strategic partner who continues to help drive the small and mid-market business in emerging markets.

TOTVS and Microsoft have integrated technologies to offer an innovative solution for the small to mid-size markets: TOII – TOTVS Office Integration Interface. The integrated solution of Microsiga Protheus and Microsoft Office 2007 helps to increase personal productivity by simplifying group workloads, optimizing the administration of processes and corporate content, and improving access to business intelligence.

TOII is integrated with the productivity and collaboration tools found in Office 2007, such as Word and Excel. ERP data is returned in real-time, contextualized according to the type of Office 2007 document that the user needs.

Key Benefits of the TOII Solution Include:

• Real-time access to data in the ERP system
• Data integrity across applications
• Minimizes the time needed to access data in the ERP system and accelerates the rate of exchange of data among various applications
• Reduces the cost of training as most customers are already familiar with the Microsoft Office Suite
• Data within the ERP system is directly accessible through Microsoft Office Word and Excel
