NAPERVILLE, Ill., Jan. 21, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Aasonn today announced it is the recipient of an SAP® North America Partner Excellence Award 2015 in the category "Cloud for Human Resources". Awards were presented by SAP (NYSE: SAP) to the top-performing SAP partners in the North America region for their efforts - in partnership with SAP - in helping customers adopt innovation easily, gain results rapidly, grow sustainably and run more simply with SAP solutions. Recipients of this year's awards have made outstanding contributions that impact overall SAP sales and pipeline-generation goals.

"We are proud to receive this recognition from SAP, whose partnership has been instrumental to our success in helping customers around the world migrate their human capital solutions to the cloud," said Allen Peterson, president and founder, Aasonn. "While there are other cloud solution software companies in the marketplace, SAP offers the most competitive, flexible and complete solution. Receiving this award is a wonderful accomplishment and a testament to the value of our work together over the past 8 years."

Selected from SAP's wide-ranging North America partner base, nominations for the SAP Partner Excellence Awards were based on internal SAP sales data. A steering committee composed of regional and global SAP representatives determined winning partners in each category according to numerous criteria such as sales achievement and performance. Awards were presented in a variety of categories, including overall sales, innovation, technology, services and solution-specific areas.

"With our outstanding ecosystem of partners, SAP is helping customers run bolder, faster and simpler," said John Graham, head, Global Partner Operations, SAP North America. "Partners extend our ability to bring SAP innovations to more customers and add their proven solutions to serve our customers. We congratulate Aasonn as one of our top-performing partners of the year in North America. Together, we are helping customers transform their business and delivering the innovation that fuels revenue and growth."

During our eight-year partnership with SAP, which initially began with SuccessFactors, an SAP company, Aasonn has accumulated a large number of customers running human resources solutions from SAP in the cloud. During this time, Aasonn has completed successful projects with small and midsized businesses, with Global Fortune 500 and 100 clients, and with some of the largest private companies in the United States.

"SAP's integrated solutions complemented by Aasonn's deep expertise in managing successful implementations creates solid wins for both companies' clients," added Randy Womack, CEO, Aasonn.
