Synapta solutions abstract information layers -- data, logic, and presentation UI that can be used independently of one another. This builds efficiencies that prepare IT for the age of user empowerment -- an age in which more is never enough, application adoption lags, and rogue IT projects win the day.

The tool set saves companies money by working within existing infrastructures and "future proofs" development efforts with compliance to open standards Specifications for hardware and software that are developed by a standards organization or a consortium involved in supporting a standard. Available to the public for developing compliant products, open standards imply "open systems;" that an existing component in a system can be replaced . Ultimately, Synapta paves the way for Attachmate's vision of a "user-organized enterprise" in which users drive the business and technology changes they need in real-time. "For most enterprises today, the focus has been on what the application does, not what the user needs," added Michael Norring, vice president of SOA services for Attachmate.
