Why we do what we do

Figaf wants to make a difference by developing softwares that can automate and make SAP Integration work smarter and with lower risk of failure.

Based on many years of experience with SAP Integration in large companies and organizations, the founder of Figaf, Daniel Graversen, found out that parts of the processes can be done smarter. Therefore Figaf started to develop software to optimize the SAP Integration processes and systems.

Protection and optimization of your business

Your business relies on integration. If it is not working you have a problem that can expand deep into your business and cost you a lot of ressources. The Figaf tools are about making it smarter and easier for you to run your business – and of limited risk. You also get less dependent on one specific developer, since processes are automated, monitored and changes are tracked. This makes your business less vulnerable.

Increased developer productivity

Developers are the core of your integration. They are responsible for a large part of the cost of integration. Figaf helps you get the most out of their skills and ensure they can be engaged with development and not spend time on paperwork that can be automated.

The name 'Figaf'

‘Figaf’ is derived from the Danish name for giraffe (giraf). The giraffe has a good overview and is able to see the landscape from a different perspective than most other animals. In order to solve a problem it is often necessary to be able to look at the problem from a new angle, to find new opportunities and solutions.

With this in mind we run our business, and solve your problems.
