Make Technologies(R) Inc. Announces New ISV Suite
VANCOUVER, June 28, 2011/PRNewswire/ --
- New Module Development, Cloud enablement and easier Customer Rollout
are just a few ways Independent Software Vendors can reinvent their legacy
product and stay ahead of their market
Make Technologies, a leading provider of legacy application
modernization technologies and solutions, today announced the launch of its
innovative Make Technologies ISV Suite for independent software vendors. ISV
Suite includes everything a software company needs to reinvent its products
and stay ahead in its market.
Many software vendors have built their products on legacy platforms that
are as much as 25 years old. This makes it difficult to improve their
feature sets, integrate with other products and to take advantage of modern
technologies such as cloud and mobile. As a result, these vendors are losing
market share to more nimble competitors that are better able to embrace
cutting-edge technologies. These vendors have a critical choice to make:
rejuvenate legacy platforms through a modernization initiative or face
market share erosion.
With the Make Technologies ISV Suite, independent software vendors can
revitalize their product offerings and give their customers all the
advantages of a modern technology stack. With ISV Suite, vendors get:
- Cloud enablement: to transform the way products are
delivered to customers by creating a cloud-ready software package
- Rich user experience: to provide easy-to-use interfaces in a
variety of environments, including mobile devices, to streamline user
training and improve productivity.
- Global reach: to increase market coverage by adding full
internationalization and improved extensibility.
The Make Technologies ISV Suite uses TLM(R) 6, the proven modernization
platform, to cover the three key components of the product modernization
lifecycle:
1) Application re-architecture: Make Technologies conducts an
in-depth analysis of every aspect of a legacy product; including
functionality, source code and data structures. Next we help determine
which functionality can be slimmed down, reused or eliminated as the
product transitions to a modern architecture. Make Technologies ensures
valuable intellectual property built up in the code base over time is
safely retained while still adopting a new state-of-the-art,
cloud-enabled platform.
2) New module development: ISVs can leverage Make Technologies'
TLM Application Design and Collaboration tools to define and build the
new features and modules of the modernized product. This allows software
vendors to deliver the improvements their customers have been asking for
at a fraction of the cost of traditional approaches while ensuring that
the new functionality is seamlessly integrated with the modernized
functionality.
3) Customer roll-out: Make Technologies provides the tools needed
to automatically and smoothly upgrade an ISV's customers to its
modernized system. ISVs can use Make Technologies' TLM Code and Data
Analysis products to identify not just custom modifications to source
code but also the business impact of those changes. TLM Data Migration
uses the transformation rules created during modernization to
automatically migrate customer data to the rearchitected system.
"To keep pace with changing customer needs, every independent software
vendor needs to add new features and improve the functionality of their
products," says Bill Bergen, President and CEO of Make Technologies. "The
only way to do this is through a highly scalable, modernized architecture.
The Make Technologies ISV Suite lets you leapfrog your competition and set a
new standard in your market."
A hosted webinar about the Make Technologies ISV Suite will be presented
on Wednesday July 13, 2011 at 8:30am PDT. Registration available by visiting
