Requisite’s e-content solutions allow desktop users to find and buy from electronic catalogs at more than 750 customer sites around the world.
“After collaborating closely with Oracle and SAP for more than two years, we’re gratified that both companies chose to underscore the importance of catalog content management with an equity investment in Requisite,” said Barbara Mowry, chairman and CEO of Requisite Technology. “We also appreciate the continuing confidence of our early investors.”
