Hello,

I thought seeburger and SAP PI are products which have same functionality but are from different companies.

Am I wrong here ?

Though both are EAI products and from different companies....As there was no native support for B2B adapters on PI...seeburger was providing addon solution for B2B with extra licensing cost...

In brief Now SAP itself providing the B2B support rather than relying on seeburger ...

Hello,

Seeburger is a company that is providing solutions for B2B and EDI since 25 years and has a wide experience in that area (also rated by several analysts like Gartner / Forrester as a leader in that area).

Therefor Seeburger was chosen by SAP to provide the official EDI-Adapters approximately 10 years ago when XI was launched.

(and at that time the Seeburger EDI Tool "BIS5" was used as the XI 2.0 EDI-Adapter as it could easily integrate to XI / R3 and also to all external partners/tools).

From XI3.0 onwards, Seeburger has made the EDI-Adapters available directly inside XI and since then Seeburger is providing proven EDI-Tools for all XI / PI versions which can be directly licensed through SAP (which is a difference to other vendors that offered also some single adapters like AS2 or sFTP).

Regards

Stefan

Hi Ajeya,

Please go through below blog.

http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/XI/Seeburger+Suite+for+SAP+PI

SAP PI recently launched B2B Add on (needs extra License Cost) to perform B2B communications. Before that SAP PI has the options like Seeburger / Advantco....these 3rd party (Different companies) adapters to achieve B2B requirements and these adapters are compatible with SAP PI. In present either you can go for SAP B2B Add on / these 3rd party products.

Hi,

Seeburger provides the B2B adapter for B2B intergation like AS2, SFTP etc.

SAP is launched the B2B adapter in PI 7.31 and will have the B2B integration with AS2, SFTP etc.. Partner.

Seebuerger and SAP are different companies.
