Integration Cloud is a single-platform ecosystem integration

organization’s capability to optimize end-to-end business processes by

and many others. -
Persona-based insights: Real-time visibility of content and

Line-of-business managers can onboard trading partners

-
Application integration connectors: Cleo has added a host of
new application connectors designed to accelerate time-to-value by
automating key parts of the order-to-cash or procure-to-pay processes.
WooCommerce, SAP S/4 Hana Cloud, and others are the latest additions
to Cleo’s expansive connector library. Such connectors
further improve a company’s ability to quickly integrate end-to-end
business processes with off-the-shelf support for e-commerce,
payments, finance and ERP applications that span multi-enterprise
ecosystems.
The Ecosystem Integration Imperative
A modern approach to business, ecosystem integration prioritizes the
designing, deploying, operating, and optimizing of end-to-end processes
between internal and external systems, customers, and partners that
drive core revenue generation. The latest updates to Cleo Integration
Cloud further underscore the value of an “outside-in” approach to
understanding how and where value can be created for businesses in any
industry in which order-to-cash, procure-to-pay, and other end-to-end
processes are critical for growth.
What Cleo customers get from these enhanced capabilities, then, are more
predictable business outcomes, better trading partner relationships, and
the ability to provide better experiences for all stakeholders, inside
and outside the company. Cleo customer Charlie’s Produce, the largest
independent west-coast wholesale produce distributor, was looking to
modernize its legacy solutions and better serve its customers and
vendors.
Charlie’s Produce EDI Analyst Louie Brothers said the company was
looking for a better way to handle non-EDI transactions and speed up
trading partner onboarding. That’s when it migrated its B2B integration
to Cleo Integration Cloud. “By partnering with Cleo, we were able to
migrate trading partners from our legacy system to the cloud and can
onboard new partners more quickly,” he said. “We can now accept and
transform almost any data format, and we have real time visibility into
all data transactions. Cleo Integration Cloud provides the scalability,
reliability, and 24x7x365 support to ensure we are accelerating
end-to-end business processes and proactively meeting all new and
existing customer requirements.”
Jason Bloomberg, president of Intellyx, an industry analyst firm
familiar with Cleo’s offerings, said, “Cleo offers pre-built core
business processes like order-to-cash and others, thus giving its
customers a straightforward approach to optimizing their core process
while solving both B2B and internal integration problems.”
Cleo CEO Mahesh
Rajasekharan highlighted the need for businesses to deliver top
quality unified commerce experiences, especially as manufacturers,
retailers, and other organizations adopt new sales channels, expand
their reach, and continue to compete with the “Amazon effect.”
“All told, our latest release of Cleo Integration Cloud is packed with
new capabilities and is without question our most innovative to date,”
Rajasekharan said. “Our focus on user experience for internal and
external personas enables Cleo customers to deliver unified commerce in
ways that create value throughout their ecosystem. They’re effectively
able to rise up and meet the challenges and opportunities that the
Amazon effect has created for every industry, and they’re providing
experiences that not only meet but exceed the expectations of all their
key integration process stakeholders.”
