Boomi Teams With Taleo to Simplify and Accelerate SaaS Integration for On-Demand Talent Management Solution

Market Wire, June, 2008

Boomi, the market and technology leader for on-demand integration, today announced that it has teamed with Taleo, the leading provider of on-demand talent management solutions, to lower the cost and increase the software-as-a-service (SaaS) integration options for Taleo Business Edition(TM) customers. With the leading on-demand recruiting solution for small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs), Taleo Business Edition customers have long benefited from best-in-class functionality, an affordable price and ease of use, and this partnership extends these benefits through integration with other systems.

Through the partnership announced today, customers can harness the power of the Web to integrate Taleo Business Edition with any other SaaS or on-premise applications including financial management, ERP and human resource applications. Customers can securely deploy and manage integrations directly from the Web using only a browser. Integrations are built visually with familiar point-and-click, drag-and-drop ease. No coding is required and implementations are accomplished with exceptional speed and at extremely affordable price points.

"Taleo and Boomi both strive to provide SMBs with the best tools possible to achieve their business goals -- without breaking the bank," explained Jason Blessing, group vice president, for Taleo's SMB business unit. "Our customers will now have access to powerful integration capabilities without the headache and expense associated with implementing complex integration solutions."

By delivering integration on demand, Boomi has redefined the economics of purchasing integration capabilities. Companies can pay by connection, and not for an entire integration software suite, and can employ the capabilities and functionality of sophisticated enterprise application integration at a fraction of the cost of conventional integration offerings.

"Boomi is pleased to partner with yet another market-leading application provider for small and mid-size businesses. With Boomi On Demand, Taleo can deliver integration capabilities to its customers with the same ease and affordability as their award-winning application," commented Boomi president and CEO, Bob Moul. "Teaming with Taleo was a natural fit. Both companies offer a true on-demand solution that was tailored to meet the specific needs of SMBs while also being scalable, easy to deploy and easy to use."
