Pioneer
OpSource Connect Named a Finalist in SoftwareCEO/CompTIA’s
“Most Innovative Software”
Category
SANTA CLARA, Calif. (Business Wire EON) April 21, 2008 --
OpSource™ announced today that OpSource
Connect™, the SaaS solution for Web
services, has been selected as a finalist for the "Most Innovative
Software for the Software Industry” in the
second annual SoftwareCEO/CompTIA Awards. The awards are presented by
The Computing Technology Industry Association (CompTIA), the leading
trade association for the world’s IT industry.
OpSource Connect allows SaaS and Web companies to consume and publish
multiple Web services across a common, secure platform –
the OpSource
Services Bus™ (OSB). OpSource Connect
solves the problem of SaaS integration by unifying SaaS applications in
the "cloud" and with legacy enterprise applications behind the corporate
firewall. As a result, SaaS applications will no longer function in
silos; instead, they can be leveraged in new and expanded markets.
“SoftwareCEO’s
annual Software Innovation Awards recognize our industry’s
efforts and accomplishments in bringing innovative products and new
business models to market,” said David
Sommer, chief operating officer, CompTIA, and publisher of SoftwareCEO. “The
companies selected as finalists for these prestigious awards are
delivering real business value to customers with their products and
services. We are pleased to recognize their achievements.”
OpSource CEO Treb Ryan said, “OpSource
Connect is changing the way companies build and deploy SaaS
applications. Through OpSource Connect, our customers can use the
OpSource Services Bus, a multi-tenant enterprise services bus, to
provide their own application as a Web service and to integrate with a
wide variety of other SaaS and legacy software applications. It’s
what we call a ‘write once, integrate with all’
capability that our customers have never experienced before, and one
that will reduce their development costs and enable them to reach new
markets.”
OpSource On-Demand™,
the company’s complete Web operations
solution, offers a number of business operations capabilities that can
be used in conjunction with OpSource Connect. These capabilities include
OpSource Billing™, OpSource Analytics™
and OpSource End-User Support™, all of which
can be integrated into any Web services enabled SaaS application. The
newest service, OpSource Billing, an end-to-end subscription management,
metering and payment solution, is available as a stand-alone service as
well as an integrated component of OpSource On-Demand.
Ryan added, “We’re
honored to be recognized by SoftwareCEO/CompTIA Awards as a finalist in
the ‘Most Innovative Software’
category. We are committed to continuing to innovate and to breaking
down the barriers to the adoption of SaaS.”
In 2007, OpSource On-Demand™ won the “Most
Innovative Service/Business Model” in the
inaugural SoftwareCEO/CompTIA Software Innovation Awards. This year’s
awards will be presented at The Software Marketing Perspectives (SMP)
Conference & Expo scheduled for May 7 - 9, 2008, at the Santa Clara
Convention Center in Santa Clara, Calif.
