Business Wire, Jan 17, 2006

HOUSTON -- PROS, the world's leader in pricing and revenue optimization science and software, announced today that it has taken another step in tightening integration of its solutions with those from SAP AG (NYSE:SAP). PROS Pricing Management version 4.0 has successfully completed "Powered by SAP NetWeaver(R)" integration, which expedites the cooperative development for PROS pricing software solutions interfacing with the SAP NetWeaver open integration and application platform. PROS Pricing Management can be deployed on SAP NetWeaver Application Server and accessed via SAP NetWeaver Portal.

"This further demonstrates the strength of PROS' integration approach," said Jeff Robinson, Senior Vice President of PROS Pricing Solutions Group. "Many large companies are now looking for integrated price optimization software solutions. Having deployed over 250 pricing and revenue optimization solutions to Fortune 1000-size companies, PROS can more effectively bring its leadership in pricing to companies that run or plan to run SAP NetWeaver.

For several years, PROS has served numerous large companies that run SAP(R) solutions. Through this certification, PROS' solution is now designated as "Powered by SAP NetWeaver."

PROS applications use transaction, customer, product, cost, price, and inventory data from all major areas supported by SAP solutions, including enterprise resource planning, customer relationship management, supply chain management, supplier relationship management and product life-cycle management. Harnessing the power of SAP NetWeaver, users of PROS' solutions can greatly reduce the effort required to implement global, integrated pricing solutions.

Robinson further added, "This is great news for customers that want to add more disciplined science to their pricing decisions."
