Case Study: Faber-Castell achieves unified development and improved SAP integration with GeneXus

Successful GeneXus-SAP Integration at Faber-Castell

Faber Castell Brazil faced a fragmented development landscape—multiple legacy systems and languages (Cobol, Clipper, Visual Basic, Delphi) alongside an SAP ERP—making maintenance, knowledge transfer and application integration difficult. To unify development and improve ERP integration, Faber Castell selected the GeneXus development platform as its single tool for building and maintaining applications.

GeneXus was rolled out across the organization with just one month of analyst training, delivering applications that integrate with SAP without creating redundant ERP data. The solution simplified and accelerated development, improved ERP application integration, and now supports more than 500 intranet users—particularly streamlining human resources systems—demonstrating clear gains in agility and portability.
