BROKAT Signs Technology Alliance With Vignette
BROKAT`s Award-winning E-services Platform Can Now Be Integrated With Vignette StoryServer 5
ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 28, 2000--BROKAT Infosystems, AG, the world`s leading provider of secure e-business solutions, has signed a technology partnership agreement with Vignette Corporation, the leading supplier of e-business applications for building online businesses and enhancing customer relationships. Under terms of the agreement, BROKAT`s e-services platform, Twister, and Vignette`s flagship product, StoryServer 5, can be easily integrated via a standard Twister component.

This integration provides BROKAT`s 2,000 clients around the world with the ability to improve customer relationships, reach more prospects, and attract and retain customers via enhanced customer relationship management functions, while, at the same time, conduct secure transactions electronically.

``Customers can now use BROKAT`s powerful e-services Twister platform with Vignette`s StoryServer to enhance online customer experiences with personalized web content,`` said Stefan Ropers, vice president of product management at BROKAT Infosystems AG. ``BROKAT and Vignette provide businesses with two of the most critical components for conducting business today -- a secure platform for electronic transactions and a comprehensive solution to transform customer contacts into solid customer relationships.``

CRM practices are becoming central to business strategy. In 1998, Aberdeen Group reported that CRM software sales and related services provided by consulting and integration firms reached $2.5 billion. By 2002, the research firm predicts this number will reach $8.5 billion.

``Vignette has fueled its unprecedented growth by enabling companies to maximize the lifetime value of their customer relationships,`` said Bill Daniel, senior vice president of products at Vignette. ``Through our partnership with BROKAT, we will enhance our ability to provide companies with the solutions they need to build customer relationships and quickly turn customer relations into e-business transactions.``

Vignette`s StoryServer allows organizations to personalize information to their target customers. The BROKAT Twister e-services platform is a market-leading software package that provides the infrastructure to deploy front-office applications such as e-banking, e-brokerage and e-cash management solutions. The combined Twister/StoryServer solution, initially targeted to retail banking applications and the ERP industries, is ideal for companies across vertical markets. For example, a financial institution will be able to use notification to alert customers of account balance, stock, price and market events. In the ERP space, SAP customers can Internet enable their back office ERP transactions and present them through StoryServer.

Because the integration of the BROKAT and Vignette solutions involves a standard Twister component, BROKAT`s customers can quickly offer these personalized services over the Web.
