IntelligentApps, a Sage company and worldwide provider of Business Performance Management (BPM) software, today announced commercial availability of IntelligentApps Release 4.5. This new release has been 100% dedicated to addressing real world customer deployments of global applications of ERP, CRM and Business Performance applications such as Sales Analysis and Product Profitability, eliminating the challenges that have resulted in deploying enterprise scale BPM applications to large user communities.

Commenting on the new scalability capabilities delivered by IntelligentApps 4.5, Paul Martin, Managing Director, IntelligentApps said "we would like to sincerely thank our customers and partners for actively participating with the research that has resulted in this ground breaking release of our software. Our customers told us that Microsoft's SQL Server 2000 Analysis Services OLAP engine continues to scale immensely well for staging DataMarts for the largest of corporate BPM projects. However, they also told us that when it comes to delivering massive volumes of information across their corporate networks to individual end users (often in locations with sub optimal bandwidth), none of the front end software tools on the market today can effectively handle the complex issue of delivering BPM applications to several hundred or even thousands of users.
