:GOJO), a leading developer of application publishing and Web-enabling solutions, today announced that Air Deccan, India's second largest and fastest growing airline, has deployed GraphOn's GO-Global server-centric computing solution to Web-enable its airline management enterprise resource planning See ERP.

"To accommodate its rapid market expansion, Air Deccan needed an easy, inexpensive way to access its mission-critical ERP legacy application from remote locations," said Ashish Kamotra, CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization.

"The airline evaluated Citrix, but found the solution to be overly complex and expensive."

Instead, Air Deccan deployed GO-Global for Windows, the fast, simple and affordable Web-enabling alternative. Without having to touch a single line of application code, Air Deccan was able to instantly publish or "serve-up" the ERP application to the Web, thereby allowing easy access from any authorized user. GO-Global is optimized for reliable, secure, scalable application delivery to virtually any network-attached device, regardless of location, platform or operating system.

"The GO-Global implementation and roll-out was extremely easy for our IT staff and users," said Col. Arvind Saksena, CIO CIO: see American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations.

 at Air Deccan. "The product does not require any complex set-up procedures and is very easy to use. GO-Global reduced our bandwidth requirements while eliminating the need for Citrix or Windows Terminal Services. It provided excellent value for the money."

Air Deccan now runs the ERP application on their central Windows server along with the GO-Global server software. Local and remote users access the application from a mix of desktop and laptop computers. Each user simply runs a very small GO-Global thin client which is totally invisible. The ERP application looks and feels exactly the same as if it were running locally.

This means that users see a different screen than they are used to seeing. With GO-Global, only the application interface is published. This improves performance and allows users to retain their familiar desktop. Utilizing GraphOn's patented RXP protocol, GO-Global is much faster and offers vastly improved data compression. The result is near LAN-like performance, even over low-bandwidth connections.

"GO-Global is a very easy-to-use tool for Web enabling applications and offers better ROI (Return On Investment) The monetary benefits derived from having spent money on developing or revising a system. In the IT world, there are more ways to compute ROI than Carter has liver pills (and for those of you who never heard of that expression, it means a lot).  than other alternatives," concluded Saksena. "It helped us reduce our bandwidth, speed up the application at the client end, and avoid the pain of a lengthy, complex implementation and maintenance of a traditional remote connectivity solution."
