SACRAMENTO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 12, 2003

Unify Corporation (OTCBB:UNFY), a leading provider of business application platform solutions, today announced that leading companies including Amerillium Systems, Inc., ANFA, Cast & Crew, Celebrity Software, Fernando Chinaglia, IDS, MDSI, Net Team, Telios and Vinci Park have selected Unify NXJ as a strategic platform for development and deployment of new enterprise Web applications. These customer wins demonstrate gaining momentum for Unify NXJ as a leading business application platform for effectively delivering J2EE(TM) Web applications that decrease operating costs and increase competitive advantage.

Unify NXJ noticeably simplifies and speeds the development and deployment of enterprise Web applications on the J2EE platform by providing up to 70 percent of a Web application's functionality out of the box. By uniquely combining common application behaviors and business rules with the J2EE blueprints, Unify NXJ enables companies to leverage the skills of their COBOL and client/server developers to quickly and effectively deliver J2EE-compliant enterprise Web applications.

Cast & Crew, a leading provider of payroll and talent payment services to the entertainment industry, has added Unify NXJ to its mix of development methodologies. "Unify NXJ will allow us to quickly build and deploy Web-based applications. We needed a better way to respond rapidly to the ever changing landscape of new market opportunities in our industry," said Sadhunathan Nadesan, CIO of Cast & Crew. "We are already the industry leader in Web-based on-location production accounting systems, currently using our own in-house technology. But everything new we do, we have to invent from scratch. Unify NXJ will let us concentrate on building business applications for our customers, rather than inventing technology.

"Unify was able to provide us with a proof of concept for our application in an impressively short timeframe. What would have taken us several months, Unify did in three days. This demonstrated the richness of Unify NXJ's pre-built application functionality and the ability to use a broad team of application developers," Nadesan added.

"Unify NXJ uniquely enables business application developers to effectively build J2EE applications using a development paradigm that is familiar to a client/server or mainframe development environment," said Dave Glende, CTO of Unify. "With its features of event-driven programming, familiar properties and controls, and data-aware components, Unify NXJ significantly accelerates the migration of business application developers to the J2EE platform. Unify NXJ greatly increases the effectiveness of an IT organization by allowing an expanded focus on the delivery of enterprise Web applications that drive business value."
