(stock abbreviation, AMEX) ), a leading provider of integration software, today announced the availability of BroadVision(R) Integration Services(TM), a new product designed to speed integration between BroadVision's enterprise self-service applications and backend systems. The BroadVision Integration Services product provides an easy visual programming interface -- based on webMethods technology -- that provides access to data without coding.

The new BroadVision Integration Services product is the result of a significantly expanded OEM relationship between BroadVision and webMethods. Recognizing BroadVision's customers' need for integration within and beyond the enterprise, the companies have created a product that combines BroadVision enterprise self-service applications and the webMethods integration platform. This new solution enables BroadVision applications to connect directly to customers' backend systems to unlock valuable data and get it into the hands of enterprise self-service users where it can be incorporated into key business processes. The ability of end users to access information in a unified manner is greatly enhanced, regardless of where the information is stored throughout the extended enterprise.

The BroadVision Integration Services product is available with a variety of pre-built webMethods adapters for popular backend systems including Baan, IBM (International Business Machines Corporation, Armonk, NY, www.ibm.com) The world's largest computer company. IBM's product lines include the S/390 mainframes (zSeries), AS/400 midrange business systems (iSeries), RS/6000 workstations and servers (pSeries), Intel-based servers (xSeries)  MQ Series, J.D.

These adapters provide customers with rapid time-to-value by handling the low-level application interfacing and providing users with a productive graphical environment for configuring business logic and data transformations. BroadVision Integration Services also includes "portlets" to allow data from common systems to be displayed in BroadVision InfoExchange Portal (BroadVision's enterprise portal framework).

"We've chosen webMethods' technology as the basis for BroadVision Integration Services for several key reasons," said Chris Grejtak, chief marketing officer for BroadVision. "First, we believe that the webMethods integration platform provides the best business value to our customers. In addition, we chose webMethods because of their strong commitment to industry standards, established experience, customer loyalty and strength of their product line. We look forward to continued joint success with the unveiling of BroadVision Integration Services."

"BroadVision's commitment to technical excellence and responsiveness to customer needs is demonstrated in their decision to expand their integration capabilities," said Debbie Rosen, senior vice president of industries and alliances for webMethods. "We're excited to work with them, further expanding the scope and power of their applications to help customers create a self-service enterprise. In so doing, BroadVision is helping companies achieve the goal of increased productivity and improved flow of corporate assets."
