      <title>OpSource Solves the Software as a Service Integration Problem</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">OpSource Connect Enables On-Demand Companies to Consume and Publish Web Services and Integrate SaaS Applications in the Cloud or Behind the Firewall</p><p>Santa Clara, CA. -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 02/29/2008 --   OpSource™, the SaaS delivery experts, today announced OpSource Connect™, the SaaS Solution for Web Services. 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 further 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. While OpSource Connect is a core component of the 2008 OpSource On-Demand Summer release, Web service consumption, application integration in the cloud and application integration behind the firewall are immediately available.<br />
<br />
Ben Pring, Research Vice President, Gartner, noted, "SaaS solutions are here to stay. Our forecasts indicate that software-as-a-service will have a compound annual growth rate of 22.1% through 2011 for the aggregate enterprise application software markets, more than double the growth rate for total enterprise software. As use of SaaS broadens and deepens, products and services that integrate SaaS solutions with existing in-house or other SaaS solutions have become more relevant and more valuable to enterprises."<br />
<br />
OpSource Connect will change the way companies build and deploy SaaS applications, and the way those applications interact with and reach new markets. At the core of OpSource Connect is the OpSource Services Bus, a multi-tenant enterprise services bus. It provides a "write once, integrate with all" capability for SaaS applications and Web services. The OSB allows applications to consume Web services such as OpSource Billing™, OpSource Analytics™ and OpSource End-User Support™; integrate with other OSB applications; integrate with third-party non-OSB applications in the cloud; and integrate with legacy enterprise applications behind the corporate firewall. These capabilities will allow SaaS applications to be built more quickly and less expensively than ever before, and will open new markets for SaaS products. OpSource Connect application integration is available immediately.<br />
<br />
Integrating applications in the cloud via OpSource Connect is quick and easy. A complete set of OpSource Connect APIs provide a powerful and flexible integration capability for any application. As an alternative, companies can use Boomi for OpSource Connect™, an easy-to-use, visual drag-and-drop application integration environment from Boomi, Inc. This provides a fast, clear-cut way to create integrations with popular non-OSB applications including Salesforce® and NetSuite®. Behind the firewall integrations are also straightforward, using OpSource Sockets™, which provide integration with legacy enterprise applications such as SAP® and Intuit QuickBooks®. The first OpSource Sockets are based on Boomi Atoms, agents that reside behind the firewall that enable integration without the need for specialized software packages or hardware appliances. OpSource Connect APIs, Boomi for Opsource Connect and OpSource Sockets are available immediately.<br />
<br />
With the release of OpSource On-Demand Summer 2008, OpSource Connect will add the ability for SaaS companies to use the OSB to not only consume, but also publish their applications as Web services. Such publishing will open up new markets for SaaS companies, and allow each SaaS application that is published as a Web service to effectively become a platform in its own right. To assist SaaS companies with enabling their applications as Web services, OpSource is creating the Web Services Enablement Program™. <br />
<br />
For SaaS and Web companies that require assistance in integrating their applications in the cloud or behind the firewall, OpSource is creating the OpSource Connect Certified Integrator Program™. And to make it easier for SaaS companies to find Web services that utilize the OSB, OpSource is creating the OpSource Connect Application Directory™. This directory will be continually updated as companies publish their applications as Web services over the OSB, enabling SaaS and Web companies to quickly expand their offerings and take advantage of new markets.<br />
<br />
Treb Ryan, OpSource&apos;s CEO, said, "In a Web services architecture, services can be used and re-used very efficiently, reducing costs and accelerating time-to-market dramatically. OpSource Connect is a breakthrough in Web services for the on-demand world. Now, companies can generate higher levels of success by consuming Web services to reduce development costs and speed time to market. And, with OpSource On-Demand Summer &apos;08, companies can publish applications as Web services for other on-demand companies to consume. This extends revenue opportunities and expands market reach for everyone across the SaaS ecosystem." <br />
<br />
"Integrating behind the firewall is especially important as Web and SaaS applications become mission-critical for the enterprise," Ryan added. "Today, only the largest SaaS companies have the ability to integrate their applications with legacy systems and other Web applications. OpSource Connect will help SaaS companies of any size overcome the integration hurdles and break out of the SaaS-only box. This will speed adoption of SaaS in larger enterprise environments and open the door for on-demand companies to cultivate business with large systems integrators."<br />

      <title>OpSource Achieves Level 1 PCI DSS Compliance</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Achievement Demonstrates Compliance with Rigorous Payment Card Security Standards, Eases Compliance for On-Demand Companies</p><p>Santa Clara, CA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 02/21/2008 --   OpSource™, the SaaS delivery experts, has announced Level One compliance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). Trustwave, a leading provider of information security and compliance management solutions to businesses and organizations throughout the world, performed the PCI DSS review. <br />
<br />
PCI DSS is the payment card industry security standard for entities that process, transmit or store cardholder data, and has been endorsed by all the major card brands – Visa Inc., MasterCard Worldwide, Discover Network, American Express and JCB. The payment card brands require that on-demand applications that accept credit card information use PCI compliant service providers such as OpSource. Doing so assures the security of payment card information collected by companies who deliver their on-demand applications via the comprehensive, award-winning OpSource On-Demand™ Web application delivery platform.<br />
<br />
Under the PCI DSS, payment service provider compliance requirements are segmented into different levels based on the number of transactions processed and/or transmitted annually. Through its Level One PCI DSS compliance validation, OpSource can support any on-line application, regardless of the volume of credit card information stored, processed, or transmitted. This level of compliance validation is required of any service provider supporting customers storing, processing, or transmitting an aggregate of greater than one million transactions or accounts per year.<br />
<br />
In order to successfully comply with the Level One PCI DSS, merchants and service providers must demonstrate compliance with 12 requirements in categories such as building and maintaining a secure network, protecting cardholder data, maintaining a vulnerability management program and maintaining an information security policy. As a Level One service provider, OpSource demonstrated its compliance by successfully undergoing a stringent, annual, on-site PCI data security review covering over 250 compliance points. <br />
<br />
"OpSource&apos;s Level One PCI DSS compliance was a critical factor in our choice of OpSource to deliver our application," said Brian Kelly, CEO, Quaris. "Quaris wants to provide the most secure, on-demand analytics solution possible and thanks to OpSource, the scope of requirements that we needed to concern ourselves with in order to demonstrate compliance in our own PCI DSS assessment was greatly reduced. Many of the requirements were already covered under OpSource&apos;s assessment, saving us a great deal of time, effort, and money. In addition, OpSource&apos;s Level One compliance provides us, and in-turn our customers, with much greater security assurance than we would have experienced with a Level Three service provider that didn&apos;t submit to an independent, on-site evaluation." Quaris provides on-demand business intelligence solutions, which facilitates higher-value analytics at an absolute fraction of traditional business intelligence costs.<br />
<br />
Ray Solnik, president and COO, OpSource, said, "Whether it&apos;s infrastructure, 24x7 end user support, billing, customer on-boarding or regulatory compliance, our customers know we&apos;ll go the extra mile to help them succeed. Ensuring that our customers&apos; sensitive data is protected is of paramount importance to us. Trustwave provided us with a detailed report that any OpSource customer, and their end users, may review to see the strength of our security measures. In addition, customers that have applications subject to other regulatory requirements such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act and Sarbanes-Oxley can take advantage of our secure environment to address those other requirements. OpSource On-Demand is also SAS 70 Type II audited, certified by salesforce.com and WebEx, and complies with the European Safe Harbor Privacy Principles. We are fast becoming a one-stop shop for SaaS companies that want to go-to-market quickly."<br />
<br />
A consortium of major payment card companies developed the PCI DSS to help organizations that process card payments prevent credit card fraud, hacking and various other security vulnerabilities and threats. The payment card companies require acquiring banks to ensure that any company that processes, stores or transmits payment card data demonstrates PCI DSS compliance or risk losing its authorization to process credit card payments.<br />

      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">2008 SIIA CODiE Awards Recognize OpSource On-Demand
As SaaS Platforms Become Critical to Success</p><p>Santa Clara, CA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 02/19/2008 --   OpSource™, the SaaS delivery experts, announced today that OpSource On-Demand™ has been selected as a finalist in the 2008 SIIA CODiE Awards in the category of "Best On-Demand Platform." Hundreds of customers and millions of end-users are conducting billions of transactions every day on the OpSource On-Demand platform. The impact of OpSource On-Demand on the software industry has been substantial. For companies large and small, OpSource On-Demand, with its world-class delivery infrastructure and value-added application and business operations capabilities, has reduced SaaS delivery costs and significantly improved time-to-market and time-to-revenue, which is critical to success in the on-demand world.  <br />
<br />

"Our OpSource Services Bus, a cornerstone of our OpSource On-Demand platform, enables our customers to easily utilize Web services to develop their applications, saving  them as much as 70 percent in development costs. In addition, we&apos;re using the OSB to broaden the potential market for customers on our platform by enabling them to connect to other applications in the cloud as well as those behind corporate firewalls.

Ken Wasch, SIIA President, said: "Competition is tough this year and that makes selection as a CODiE Finalist a real achievement. All the companies on this year&apos;s list should feel justifiably proud of their recognition." <br />
<br />
OpSource On-Demand 2.0 introduced a revolutionary shift in the way software-as-a-service (SaaS) and Web companies develop and deploy applications.

      <title>OpSource Adds On-Demand Customer On-Boarding and Billing Solution with Acquisition of LeCayla Technologies</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">OpSource Gains Component Critical to Success of On-Demand Companies and Expands EMEA Market Presence</p><p>Santa Clara, CA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 02/11/2008 --   OpSource™, the SaaS delivery experts, today announced that it has acquired LeCayla Technologies (www.lecayla.com), a privately held, Dublin-based provider of billing and customer on-boarding software for software-as-a-service (SaaS) and Web-based applications. The purchase was an all-stock transaction, the valuation of which has not been disclosed. The acquisition provides OpSource with a complete, automated SaaS on-boarding and billing solution, which it will provide to customers of its comprehensive, award-winning Web application delivery platform, OpSource On-Demand™. As part of the acquisition, OpSource will move its EMEA headquarters from London to Dublin and establish a development center there. OpSource will also maintain a sales and operations presence in London, including a new data center.<br />
<br />
"The sooner a company can bring new customers online and bill for SaaS, the faster it can generate revenues and profits which is so critical to market success," said Erin TenWolde, senior analyst, software-as-a-service, IDC. "Acquiring LeCayla&apos;s on-demand customer on-boarding and billing solution will make it easier for OpSource&apos;s customers to scale with market demand."  <br />
<br />
Treb Ryan, CEO, OpSource, added, "At last year&apos;s SaaS Summit, we learned that only 17 percent of existing SaaS companies have online billing and automated customer on-boarding capabilities. Most have manual, paper-driven processes beset with delays, even at some of the largest on-demand companies. Our acquisition of LeCayla provides a quick and easy way for our customers to add users and collect revenues. This frees our customers to focus on marketing and developing a superior SaaS solution, which improves the odds that they will succeed and grow. And since OpSource&apos;s success is based on its customers&apos; success, this is also great news for OpSource. OpSource On-Demand is already the most comprehensive Web application delivery platform available and this acquisition extends our technology lead in the dynamic and rapidly growing on-demand market."<br />
<br />
Conor Halpin, CEO, LeCayla, said, "OpSource is the leader in managing Web operations and providing the services that on-demand companies need to successfully deliver applications to the end user. We are excited to become part of the company because OpSource shares our passion for customer service and technology innovation. We have worked hard to create a complete and flexible solution that supports self-service customer acquisition and allows on-demand companies to test alternative pricing plans, easily offer price promotions and collect and process payments. Now that LeCayla has become part of OpSource On-Demand, a greater number of on-demand companies will benefit from our work."<br />
<br />
Halpin will become senior vice-president, EMEA at OpSource. He will be responsible for all EMEA sales and operations and report to Ryan. LeCayla COO Gary Ramsay will continue to be responsible for the ongoing development of the on-boarding and billing solution and will report to OpSource CTO John Rowell.<br />
<br />
OpSource will announce specific plans for its new on-boarding and billing solution at its SaaS Summit, February 27 - 29 in San Francisco (<a class="extlink"  rel="nofollow noopener"  target="_blank"  title="http://www.saassummit08.net" href="http://www.saassummit08.net">http://www.saassummit08.net</a>).<br />

<br />

      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">LitSoft Chooses OpSource On-Demand for New LitScope Review Platform</p><p>Santa Clara, CA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 02/04/2008 --   OpSource™, the SaaS delivery experts, today announced that LitSoft Inc., a leading eDiscovery software and technology innovator, has chosen OpSource On-Demand™ to deliver LitScope, the electronic discovery industry&apos;s first Web 2.0 electronically stored information (ESI) review platform. LitScope will enable LitSoft&apos;s law firm and corporate clients to use any main-stream Web browser, running on any main-stream operating system, to access its documents from anywhere in the world where an Internet connection is available. LitScope includes many advanced features such as full Unicode support, search-based batching, a review management dashboard, and many others, all packaged in an extremely intuitive Web 2.0 interface and backed by 24/7 end user support via dedicated toll free phone.<br />
<br />
"We chose OpSource after an intensive review process," said Steve Jreige, CEO, LitSoft. "Several companies met our most basic requirements, including a data center that was local to our northern Virginia office and provided Statement on Auditing Standards Number 70 (SAS 70) Type II compliance. But what really separated OpSource was some of the more specialized services it offers, especially 24/7 support for our end-users, which was very critical to us. And OpSource offered a breadth of technical expertise that far surpasses its managed hosting provider competitors."<br />
<br />
Treb Ryan, CEO, OpSource, said, "LitSoft wisely designed LitScope as a software-as-a-service application. It enables LitSoft to easily and economically load client data and keep it live for as long as a case is active, charging LitSoft&apos;s clients by the month during that time. But when a case is resolved, it&apos;s just as easy for LitSoft to remove the data, making this a true on-demand delivery model. Utilizing OpSource, LitSoft can take advantage of our highly secure data center and operations steeped in best practices such as PCI DSS compliance. Our team has also designed specific procedures for LitScope, which enable us to get data online within 24 hours after LitSoft delivers the hard drive to us. We do all this while maintaining the internal controls required by the rigorous SAS 70 Type II audit."<br />
<br />
LitSoft plans to officially unveil LitScope to the public in February at the LegalTech New York conference – visit them at booth #3619 for a demo.<br />

      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Third Annual Software-as-a-Service Industry Event Brings Focus on How Web 2.0, SaaS and On-Demand Companies Can Succeed</p><p>Santa Clara, CA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 01/23/2008 --   OpSource™, the SaaS delivery experts, today announced the keynote speakers and panelists for its third annual SaaS Summit. Jim Steele, Chief Customer Officer and President of International Operations, salesforce.com; Greg Urquhart, Microsoft&apos;s General Manager for its US independent software vendor and systems integrator partner channel; and Josh James, CEO of Omniture, will keynote. The SaaS Summit is dedicated to helping software-as-a-service (SaaS), on-demand and Web companies maximize their success in the world of Web software. This year&apos;s event will focus on how successful companies must not only think like Web companies, but also make the right platform choices and embrace Web services to build out and extend their offerings.<br />
<br />
Jeffrey Kaplan, managing director of THINKstrategies, a SaaS consulting firm that examines the business implications of IT service trends, stated, "OpSource&apos;s SaaS Summit is a key industry event for established and startup companies seeking to successfully compete in the SaaS, Web and on-demand services market. I have attended and spoken at each of the past Summits because it is a great event to find practical advice and trade best practices with executives in the on-demand industry. Just as Dreamforce, Oracle Open World and SAP&apos;s Sapphire have become the &apos;go to&apos; conferences for their customers and partners, so too has OpSource&apos;s SaaS Summit become an important event for the broader SaaS, Web and on-demand services industry."<br />
<br />
Treb Ryan, CEO, OpSource, said, "This year, the focus will be how companies should evaluate the platform choices that are out there, and how mash-ups and Web services affect application development and integration. We are excited about the topics and presenters that we are lining up for SasS Summit 2008 and expect record attendance this year based on early responses. Like its predecessors, the Summit is shaping up to be one of the most valuable learning opportunities available for anyone who is in the SaaS business or might be soon.

      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">OpSource.net Provides Unique Functionality to Harness Application Metrics for Greater Business Insight and Improved Decision-Making</p><p>Montclair, NJ -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 01/04/2008 --   OpSource, the SaaS delivery experts, today announced the availability of OpSource.net, a powerful Web application that provides on-demand companies with unique analytics, Web services and data exporting capabilities, as well as essential billing and support functionality to help companies gain greater insights into customer usage of their applications and accelerate their businesses.<br />
<br />
As a central point of access to key business and technical metrics for SaaS and Web applications delivered by OpSource On-Demand, OpSource.net empowers software and Web companies to quickly assess the health of their businesses and act on high-impact strategic decisions to maximize long-term success. OpSource.net is available to all OpSource On-Demand customers at no extra charge.<br />
<br />
"Delivering software as a service requires capabilities that are far beyond those offered by traditional hosting and managed services companies," said Nick Goss, service operations director for BMC Software&apos;s On Demand Business Unit. "OpSource not only provides BMC with a complete SaaS delivery solution, but also puts critical business insights at our fingertips. With the tools and metrics available through OpSource.net, we can better manage our on-demand business to optimize the customer experience and continually drive more value to boost our bottom line."<br />
<br />
John Rowell , OpSource&apos;s chief technology officer, added, "OpSource understands that software and Web companies benefit greatly from understanding how their applications are being used by end users. OpSource.net allows on-demand companies like BMC Software to gather more complete information about the user experience and better manage such vital functions as billing without investing their own valuable time and resources. This useful information helps companies to design a better product, as well as more effectively target their marketing and sales resources and ultimately increase their competitive advantages and profitability."<br />
<br />
OpSource.net features a rich, intuitive and customizable interface that provides OpSource On-Demand customers with access to a range of vital functions to manage their applications, including:<br />
<br />
    * "Heads Up" System Status and Billing Displays – At-a-glance views that provide real-time insights into the business health of an on-demand application. These displays include application response and uptime information that illustrate the application&apos;s quality-of-service (QoS) metrics, as well as the application&apos;s revenues and receivables. Users can also drill down into each of the displayed statistics for more detail.<br />
    * OpSource Analytics – This unique set of functions allows users to create dashboards of key performance indicators (KPIs) that provide valuable application intelligence and enable more effective decision-making. Using an intuitive Web interface, customers can create dashboards based on a wealth of application-specific data such as events, response time, billing statistics, logins, monitoring alerts, network metrics, units and uptime metrics. Dashboards are easily customized to suit individual business needs through in-line controls, with the flexibility to obtain both real-time and historical views.<br />
    * OpSource Services Bus API – Powerful interfaces that only OpSource can provide, allowing customers to integrate information from their SaaS or Web 2.0 application into the OpSource Services Bus datastore. The result is a deeper and more robust view of the customer application and how it is being utilized by end users.<br />
    * OpSource Services Bus Export – Exclusive functionality to export data from the "Heads Up" Displays and OpSource Analytics in CSV or XML formats, allowing customers to leverage this valuable information in other applications.<br />
    * Support Functions – A single point of access for customers to manage all of their online interactions with OpSource. This comprehensive set of functions includes one-click support that allows application management team members to submit and track incidents or chat live with an OpSource support person to promptly answer questions and resolve issues.<br />
    * User-Based Personalization – Flexible customer control to define settings and preferences for presenting statistical views that suit their specific business needs and interests.<br />
<br />
OpSource.net enables software and Web companies to avoid the costs and complexities of building such decision support capabilities into their applications. They can instead focus their resources on more strategic development efforts.<br />

      <title>OpSource Delivers Ribbit's New Mobile Voice Application for Salesforce.com</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Ribbit for Salesforce Provides Intelligent Management of Calls and Voicemail</p><p>Montclair, NJ -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 12/28/2007 --   OpSource™, the SaaS delivery experts, today announced that Ribbit, Inc., Silicon Valley&apos;s first phone company, chose OpSource On-Demand to deliver its new Ribbit for Salesforce application, which integrates mobile voice communications with salesforce.com. OpSource provides Ribbit with the design, assembly, configuration and ongoing management of the infrastructure Ribbit needs for its application. OpSource also provides a 100 percent uptime guarantee and customized Success-Based PricingSM consistent with Ribbit&apos;s revenue model.<br />
<br />
Ribbit for Salesforce integrates telephony into salesforce.com, allowing users to manage phone calls and voice messages much in the same way they manage email. For example, when customers call the mobile phones of sales representatives who use Ribbit for Salesforce, the sales representatives can then answer the calls with an on-screen Ribbit Phone embedded in every salesforce.com page. The Ribbit integration also provides one-click dialing, enabling users to call prospects and customers from their computers and track the communications. Ribbit for Salesforce requires no downloads and allows sales representatives to keep their existing mobile phones and numbers.<br />
<br />
Crick Waters, Ribbit vice president, strategy and business development, said, "We have no shortage of in-house knowledge and experience with setting up and managing infrastructure. But we want to keep our focus on the things we do best such as furthering the development of the Ribbit for Salesforce integration and the Ribbit platform – and leave the rest to others. Although our Ribbit for Salesforce integration has significantly different requirements than the average software-as-a-service application, OpSource meets our needs completely."<br />
<br />
Ray Solnik, President, OpSource, said, "Our thorough understanding of Ribbit&apos;s product and its business enabled us to tailor a web application delivery solution to meet their specific requirements. And our Success-Based Pricing perfectly complements Ribbit&apos;s financial model. Because we charge for what our customers deliver rather than for the resources they consume, we can confidently say that Ribbit&apos;s success is our success."<br />

      <title>TeeBeeDee Moves Baby Boomer Experience Network to OpSource On-Demand</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Acquires On-Demand Services not Available from Managed Hosting Provider</p><p>Montclair, NJ -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 12/11/2007 --   OpSource™, the SaaS delivery experts, today announced that TeeBeeDee (www.tbd.com), a community for people 40 years old and older, has chosen OpSource On-Demand™ to deliver its online experience network. Within months of launching TeeBeeDee via a managed hosting provider, the company realized it needed more services to reliably serve its users. TeeBeeDee found those services in OpSource On-Demand.<br />
<br />
TeeBeeDee is an experience network that provides a platform for members to learn, exchange information, and connect with each other. TeeBeeDee includes features such as discussions, questions and answers, member profiles, interest groups, and user-generated content.<br />
<br />
Greg Sherwin, vice president of engineering, TeeBeeDee, said, "Our managed hosting provider was handling the fundamentals, like networking and system administration. But as our user base grew, we needed more service than the managed hosting company could provide, like 24x7 management and monitoring of our Java application servers. OpSource On-Demand provides a proactive approach to delivering our applications, multi-point customer experience monitoring and application management. OpSource speaks our language and clearly understands the business of effectively managing our Web applications."<br />
<br />
Treb Ryan, CEO, OpSource, said, "TeeBeeDee&apos;s story makes clear how OpSource is different from managed hosting providers. Like TeeBeeDee, any Web company that is running a live application to provide a service to users via the Web needs much more than a place to park its Web pages and underlying program code. OpSource has expertise in all aspects of Web application delivery and we handle all the details, so TeeBeeDee and on-demand companies like it can focus on their core businesses."<br />

      <title>MuleSource and OpSource Announce Technology Partnership </title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">New partnership delivers the first "in-the-cloud” data and services integration to the enterprise.</p><p>Santa Clara, CA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 09/19/2007 --   MuleSource, the leading provider of open source infrastructure and integration software, and OpSource™, the SaaS delivery experts, today announced a new technology partnership that takes advantage of the expertise at both companies to provide enterprise customers with a single resource for software integration and on-demand services. <br />
<br />
Integration challenges frequently plague companies who choose to offer their services via the on-demand model. Discovering that integration "in the cloud" is much more complex than behind the corporate firewall, businesses seek on-demand providers who can deliver SaaS in a stable on-demand delivery environment. As technology partners, MuleSource and OpSource will combine complementary technologies to ease the transition for new customers while providing the robust, scalable infrastructure that existing customers require. <br />
<br />
Mule is the world&apos;s most widely used open source Enterprise Services Bus (ESB) and integration platform while OpSource already delivers SaaS for more than 200 software and Web companies—from established leaders like Business Objects and Visual Mining to innovative new on-demand companies like Boomi and Zipidy.  Through this partnership, MuleSource becomes the integration-as-a-service platform of choice for OpSource.  In turn, using OpSource On-Demand™, Mule safely scales to deliver millions of services every day, 24/7/365.<br />
<br />
In addition, MuleSource has partnered with OpSource to deliver a new hosted subscription offering, MuleOnDemand.  Launched yesterday, MuleOnDemand allows enterprises to securely move and manage data inside and outside their organizations using Mule for data and services "integration in the cloud." Delivered by OpSource, MuleOnDemand enables businesses to connect their existing services with third-party applications on the Web or with partner sites. <br />
<br />
Dave Rosenberg, CEO of MuleSource, said, "Our partnership with OpSource is a unique, reciprocal arrangement between two industry leaders. OpSource has selected Mule as its own integration solution, primarily due to Mule&apos;s scalability and adaptability. In combination with our new MuleOnDemand offering, no other integration solution can adapt so seamlessly to serve OpSource&apos;s wide range of customers." <br />
<br />
Treb Ryan, CEO of OpSource said: "As the leader in Web application delivery, our goal is to create an ecosystem that offers a complete, robust integration platform for software and Web companies taking part in the SaaS revolution. With MuleSource, we&apos;ve jointly created the enterprise architecture of the future—a combination of open source and on-demand services that enable deeper third-party integration and architecture flexibility. This allows the rapid creation of new, innovative on-demand solutions."<br />

      <title>RingLead Selects OpSource to Deliver Lead Management Tools for Salesforce.com Users</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">OpSource On-Demand Provides RingLead with Complete Web Application Delivery Solution plus Accelerated Salesforce.com AppExchange Certification</p><p>Santa Clara, CA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 09/11/2007 --   OpSource™, the SaaS delivery experts, today announced that RingLead has chosen OpSource On-Demand™ to deliver RingLead&apos;s Declone de duplication tools for users of salesforce.com. RingLead offers three preventive, real-time de duplication tools, as well as one that will find existing duplicates within salesforce.com. Declone Web-to-Lead, Declone New Lead and Declone Mass List stop duplicate leads or contacts from entering a customer&apos;s salesforce.com database by matching data from online contact forms, manually created leads or imported lists with existing contacts or leads and updating those records without losing any data. The fourth application is Declone Data Cleansing, which identifies existing duplicate leads, contacts and accounts within salesforce.com.<br />
<br />
Selecting OpSource On-Demand for delivery of RingLead&apos;s Web applications enables the company&apos;s staff members to devote their time and resources to creating and further developing applications rather than delivering them. In addition, because OpSource On-Demand is certified by AppExchange, RingLead Declone applications benefit from accelerated AppExchange certification.<br />
<br />
Steve Lehr, founder and president, RingLead, said, "We had been managing our own infrastructure by leasing space in commercial data centers. But we had performance issues and the infrastructure management required resources we can better use in other areas, like product development. OpSource solved our performance issues while giving us peace of mind. With OpSource, we know that someone who is familiar with our application is able to fix an operational problem at any time of day or night. Also, OpSource&apos;s "pay-as-you-grow" business model ensures that as we expand our business, OpSource will automatically provide whatever infrastructure is necessary to meet our new delivery requirements. And no question, the short path to AppExchange certification was a major benefit."<br />
<br />
Treb Ryan, CEO, OpSource, said, "OpSource has been working closely with salesforce.com and its AppExchange as a certified application delivery partner for the past three years. It&apos;s a great relationship, benefiting both OpSource and our AppExchange customers. We currently deliver AppExchange applications for a dozen companies, eliminating their need to invest in delivery infrastructure and services while also reducing their time to AppExchange certification by one third or more. I&apos;m particularly thrilled that RingLead has chosen OpSource for its AppExchange application delivery because we are a salesforce.com customer and have used RingLead&apos;s product. I expect that it will do very well on AppExchange."<br />
<br />
About OpSource On-Demand<br />
A comprehensive, award-winning Web application delivery platform, OpSource On-Demand enables companies to quickly and securely offer applications on-demand. OpSource On-Demand is the only complete platform for Web application delivery, offering a best-in-class, fully scalable software, hardware and network infrastructure, including application management and 24x7 customer-branded end user support and a 100% uptime guarantee.

The Declone offering was the first validated salesforce.com service enabling RingLead to become the first salesforce.com partner. The company has maintained the partnership with salesforce.com helping over 100 customers using the Declone services to prevent duplicates from being created in salesforce.com. The services are managed by OpSource, and customers are supported by a dedicated staff determined to provide the customer with superior customer service.

      <title>Salesforce.com AppExchange ISV Partners Use OpSource On-Demand to Accelerate Time to Market by 33 Percent</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Going on-demand with OpSource provides world-class Web application delivery and reduces infrastructure costs</p><p>Santa Clara, CA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 09/07/2007 --   OpSource™, the SaaS delivery experts, today announced that AppExchange ISV partners can accelerate their time to market by 33 percent by choosing OpSource On-Demand™ for Web application delivery. OpSource On-Demand speeds time to market for AppExchange partners by providing a world-class Web application delivery platform, years of experience in working with salesforce.com as a certified partner, and value-added services such as comprehensive on-boarding, customer billing and user analytics. Accelerating the certification process for partners by one-third enables them to more quickly bring innovative SaaS solutions to market via the AppExchange.  OpSource delivers AppExchange applications for software and Web companies ranging in size and experience, from established leaders like Business Objects and Visual Mining to innovative new on-demand companies like Audiocast and RingLead. OpSource is enabling ISVs to use salesforce.com&apos;s AppExchange to take advantage of the power and momentum of the on-demand movement.<br />
<br />
"Working seamlessly with partners that can enable SaaS adoption is what will help sustain the kind of growth IDC foresees for the delivery model," explained Erin TenWolde, senior analyst, Software as a Service, IDC. "The relationship between salesforce.com and OpSource is an example of the developing partner network that we see unfolding in the SaaS area."<br />
<br />
Additionally, salesforce.com, the market and technology leader in on-demand business services has re-certified OpSource for the third year in a row as an application delivery and hosting partner. OpSource was the first SaaS delivery vendor to be certified by salesforce.com. <br />
<br />
George Hu, CMO, salesforce.com, said: "Thousands of customer installations of on-demand partner applications have taken place on the AppExchange, demonstrating its amazing momentum. The on-demand model gives developers and partners the power and ability to focus on innovation, not infrastructure. ISV partners can use OpSource&apos;s services as an on-ramp to the AppExchange and as a complement to building and running their applications natively on the Salesforce on-demand platform."<br />
<br />
Marjie Zander, President and CEO, ClearMeeting, which offers "no-frills" web conferencing tailored to the needs of sales professionals, noted,: "OpSource&apos;s insights and hands-on support were invaluable in helping us accelerate the launch of our ClearMeeting sales tool on AppExchange. OpSource provided a level of knowledge and experience with salesforce.com that we have not seen elsewhere — not just on the technical side, but also in terms of marketing and business development." <br />
<br />
Steve Lehr, CEO and president of RingLead, which offers salesforce.com customers preventive de-duplication services, added: "The biggest value for us was peace of mind. OpSource takes care of everything we need to deliver our Web application, from hardware to application management to end user support, so that we can focus on developing, marketing and selling our solution."<br />

OpSource adds valuable services such as 24x7 customer-branded call center support and integrated customer on-boarding and billing capabilities, all priced on-demand. We even help our customers with marketing and sales. OpSource accelerates AppExchange certification for our customers, enabling them to bring innovative enterprise application software to market far more quickly and cost-efficiently. Essentially, you can think of it this way: if AppExchange is the iTunes of enterprise application software, then OpSource On-Demand is the iPod!"<br />
<br />
"Let&apos;s face it, delivering services over the Web is not in the DNA of software companies, who must learn to deal with security, availability, disaster recovery, change management, operational discipline and round-the-clock end user support," added Ryan. "OpSource lifts that huge burden from the software companies."<br />
<br />
OpSource will present information about OpSource On-Demand and other value-added services for AppExchange partners at Booth #119 during salesforce.com&apos;s Dreamforce Conference, September 16 -19, 2007 in San Francisco at the Moscone Center.<br />

      <title>OpSource Partners with Boomi to Revolutionize Delivery of Integration On Demand</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Agreement Removes Integration as a Sales Barrier for Companies that Deliver Applications On Demand</p><p>Santa Clara, CA and Berwyn, PA -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 09/06/2007 --   OpSource™, the SaaS delivery experts and Boomi™, the emerging industry leader in on-demand integration, announced today that the two firms have formed a partnership designed to accelerate the adoption of the on-demand delivery model by removing integration as a major barrier. Although the acceptance and popularity of SaaS applications has continued to rise at a dramatic pace, integration has been the Achilles heel of the SaaS industry. Software companies looking to migrate their offerings to a SaaS delivery model are faced with the challenge of integrating their products with other SaaS and on-premise applications. Under the terms of the agreement, Boomi will provide on-demand integration capabilities to companies building SaaS applications and OpSource will deliver and manage those applications.<br />
<br />
Initially, Boomi On Demand will enable OpSource clients to include integration capabilities within their products that are delivered via the OpSource On-Demand™ Web application delivery platform. Longer term, the companies are exploring how the combination of the OpSource Services Bus™ and Boomi On Demand could enable native integration among all OpSource-delivered applications as well as a broad array of third party on-demand applications and on-premise applications Based on a service-oriented architecture, the OpSource Services Bus allows on-demand applications running on the OpSource On-Demand platform to quickly and easily take advantage of additional OpSource and third party application components.<br />
<br />
Bob Moul, CEO, Boomi, said, "The integration experience for companies deploying SaaS applications has been completely incongruent with the SaaS paradigm, particularly in terms of cost, complexity and implementation timeframes. This partnership will make it even easier for companies to enter the on-demand market by eliminating integration as a major sales and implementation hurdle for their offerings. And delivering Boomi On Demand via the OpSource Services Bus will allow us to achieve a significant &apos;network effect&apos; by enabling native integration among OpSource and non-OpSource clients alike."<br />
<br />
Treb Ryan, CEO, OpSource, added, "As the leader in Web application delivery, we are creating an ecosystem that offers one-stop development and delivery shopping for companies that want to join the SaaS revolution. Integration is a key component of delivering an interoperable ecosystem. Our partnership with Boomi enables our customers to offer integration-enabled applications quickly and economically, thus accelerating the growth of the SaaS market and furthering the adoption of OpSource On-Demand as the leading platform for Web application delivery."<br />
<br />
Boomi On Demand enables application and data integrations to be built, deployed and managed directly from the Web without the burden of installing and maintaining expensive integration software packages or hardware appliances on premise. Using patent-pending technology, Boomi On Demand can handle any combination of SaaS and on-premise integration through the use of a lightweight, dynamic runtime engine called an "Atom&amp;#8480;." Boomi Atoms contain all the components required to execute an integration process from end-to-end and can be used for SaaS-to-SaaS integration or downloaded behind the firewall for on-premise integration.<br />
<br />
A comprehensive, award-winning Web application delivery platform, OpSource On Demand enables companies to quickly and securely offer applications on-demand. OpSource On-Demand offers a complete operational hardware, software and networking infrastructure, including application management and 24x7 customer-branded end-user support. In addition, OpSource On-Demand includes tools that accelerate revenue generation, such as billing and analytics. These services are provided by OpSource via a unique, Success-Based Delivery Model that includes unit-based pricing, thereby ensuring that businesses begin with a modest minimum commitment, and that ongoing increases in revenue will always precede future increases in service delivery cost.<br />
