Market Wire, July, 2008

Servoy Inc ., a leader in PaaS/SaaS development, today announced that it has received high marks for its Servoy 4.0 pre-release in the July 1, 2008 online edition of eWEEK. Select quotes include, "For those tired of maintaining separate code bases for Web and desktop applications, Servoy offers a way to consolidate those code bases and cut development time in half," and "There is a way to create and deploy applications that don't suffer from the disadvantages seen by both Web and traditional applications, and that is to use Servoy," while also noting a Servoy .NET report ( www.servoy.com/dotnet ), stating that Servoy "has had visible success in displacing other development environments." The review in its entirety can be viewed at: Servoy Blurs Line Between Web Apps, Desktop Apps.

"We are pleased that one of the top IT enterprise publications has not only recognized Servoy in the PaaS sector, but also endorsed our SaaS platform development tool as one of the best in the industry," said Bob Cusick, Managing Director, Servoy, USA. "It is a leading indicator for Servoy, and reaffirms our leadership in SaaS/PaaS category. With this endorsement, our development and go-to-market efforts are strengthened, and ensures that we are poised to continue our leadership position and growth."

Servoy 4.0, slated for release July 15, 2008, is a cross-platform application development and deployment environment used to create and deploy applications. Servoy consists of a powerful GUI designer, is fully event-driven and scriptable through JavaScript to help build and deploy applications much faster than traditional development environments. Today over 100,000 companies and more than 20,000 developers are working with the Servoy product suite. Companies like Symantec, Stanford University, Wells Fargo, Verizon and UCLA hospital rely on Servoy for managing data and presenting it to their customers and employees through rich applications over the LAN, WAN and Internet connections. They have successfully used Servoy to transition their products to SaaS -- on time and on budget.

More from the review:

"This quick test drive of the product only scratches the surface of what Servoy can accomplish. Books could be written (and some have already been) on the features that are available without generating any manual code, and if an expert wants to embed some manual code, most anything can be accomplished with Servoy."

"Developers will find that Servoy does live up to its promises of code-free application generation that can be deployed in a number of ways and will find the product a powerful ally for creating custom applications for both internal and external use."
